On dealing with the pressures of fame:

I’m not the chick that breaks down, I’m not the one who loses it and wilds out, that’s not my thing.

On finding herself on top of an Egyptian tomb:

I needed to get out of town and clear my head, I went to Egypt. It was such a miraculous experience for me. I crawled to the top of the pyramid and I just sang at the top of my lungs right there. People walking in acted like I was crazy; I didn’t care. When I came home, I wanted to abandon all the tat stuff about me feeling too vulnerable to collaborate with people. Forget that.

On her idea of a good date:

I like to do things just because the thought came in your mind. I like to maybe go to the planetarium, crazy late at night. I love when a dude is cool with going to the museum with me, especially if it’s an interesting exhibit. I’m not just trying to go see dead white people. [Laughs]

The singer also graces the cover of the upcoming issue of Ebony. She is making moves and looking gorgeous doing so!

  2. Atira

    WOW, She looks just amazing. She keeps it interesting

  3. hood_shit

    Her new single is the shit but she should stray away from interviews because she bores me…. lame yo!

  4. Softest Place On Earth

    I agree a sometimes its good to go on a spontaneous date with your boyfriend.

  5. Krazee

    It’s nice to see her embrace her femine side!! She is a very beautiful woman!! Thank God she left the whole cornbraids thing alone!!! To imagine her sitting in-between another womans legs getting that head done scared me!!!

  6. (Valley girl voice) Like omg it is official, Alicialoop has arrived!!!!!!

    No but Alicia is looking good, she look kind of pale on the cover but beautiful nonetheless. Can’t wait for the album to drop!

  7. Oh yeah the “Alicialoop” was a lame joke, please don’t take it to heart CL staff. I don’t want ya’ll to feel” unappreciated” like the group Cherish.

  8. alicia is cool peoples…i love her music so much!

  9. alicia can get it anytime, but damn i hate how in these magazines people look all good an whatnot, then you see them in person and they look like jabba the hut.

  10. B.Rich

    GOODNESS! She’s everywhere and lookin good too *gotta promote- I ain’t mad*!!!!
    She’s beautiful on this cover. I like this cover and the EBONY mag cover. Get it Ms. Keys!!

  11. smmb

    Definately an
    Alicia fan.

  12. TELL THE TRUTH

    STOP LYING ALICIA LOOKS UNCOMFORTABLE IN A FEW OF THOSE PICS AND A CORPSE IN THE OTHERS …. UGH NOT A GOOD LOOK A KEYS

  13. jas

    this is the nicest i have ever seen alicia look.

  14. CLEARMINDED

    “Dead white people”???? Why she talkin about her Mama’s family like that? LOL.

    Nice cover pic — thank gawd she’s not oranged or bronzed up like an oompa loompa like usual. This is a much better look. Still not convinced, she doesn’t have that innate sensuality and a lot of her poses look stiff, but I guess it’s growing on me.

  15. Tata

    J.Lewis, you are off the chain!!! Just tell me you’re tall. That would make it all the better. LOL

  16. I feel very bi right now lol she’s looking so freakin’ hot in these pics I can barely stand it.

  17. Tata

    Alicia and Zoe Kravitz could pass for sisters on some of these pictures.

  18. Tata

    Easy EBZ….I saw her first. LMAO

  19. She looks HOT. She looks like Dita Von Teese on the cover of Uptown.

    Lol @ dead white people.

    Lol @ J Lewis. You are funny dude.

  20. Sara Tianna

    I See ya Alicia!!! Hot!!

  21. toi

    NOW THIS IS MORE LIKE IT WAY BETTER THE COMPLEX COVER!!
    YOU GO ALICIA!! LOVE YA!

  22. Lula Pear

    Are those leather pants in the middle pick?? I don’t like that they skewed her nose in the first pic…And, I’m tired of seeing the same white tank and high-waist jeans combo… but yellow is stunning against her skin… AND, the sequined top is sooo nice against her skin, too… Her face is always dead, though…I guess she’s not a professional model… Was her face dead before she started with the “sexy”??

  23. Lula Pear

    Did anyone catch it?? Alicia’s wearing the same top as B@%^#c% in the pic in the chairs…

  24. Leinohr

    She looks good but…

    when i first saw this post, and before I saw the name of who was on the cover…

    i thought it was beyonce with her new darker hair….

    i was kinda surprised when i read it was a keys…

  25. she stays showing her bust area all the time. lately all magazine covers foccuses on her non exisiting bust area. she needs to get a tan too.other than that she looks pretty.

  26. datdude

    She is fine…I dated a semi-cute redbone a year or so ago, if i had a dime for every time someone said she looked just like Alicia Keys i’d have at least a nickel, real talk.

  27. Superman's_Girl

    She’s a pretty girl.

  28. Not sure how I feel about the Glitz and Glam Alicia.
    My girl is always beautiful but
    I’m tired of every chick looking like a Barbie Doll ALL the time.

    k

  29. Haughty

    She looks way better on this cover, still not pretty. She always look blah,like she don’t know what going on, or what she’s doing.

  30. B.Rich

    LOL @ #29 DATDUDE- a nickel? Did somebody ask for change?

    @ #26 LULA_PEAR- I noticed but I was afraid to mention it due to how easily wars start when “her” name is spoken=*typed* along w/ another songstress/celeb. lol

  31. Alicia is beautiful but she does look extremely uncomfortable in these pics to me too. They just look forced to me.

  32. Alicia is really doing her thing. She is alright to me. I would buy this magazine “ONLY” to read about the most fierce woman of all.

    GRACE JONES!!! I can’t wait to read about her and what she has been up to.

  33. cookaloo

    she looks gorgeous b/c that butt-ugly complex cover did her no justice!
    Haute!

  34. MS. Rochelle

    Alicia looks cute, I’m not to sure about the wavy texture of her hair in that 1st pic, but overall –Good look. Just like Alicia was singing on top of that pyramid at the top of her lungs, that’s how I sing “No One” in my car. Other drivers look at me like I’m crazy, but it’s ok, I keep singing.

  35. GODSCHILD504

    GIRLFRIEND LOOK GOOD, GO ALICIA

  36. GODSCHILD504

    OOPS, GIRLFRIEND

  37. Not bad Ms. Keys….

    I”ll have to search for this magazine

  38. Alicia looks great, even in that yellow banana dress. I love her new song and the funny thing is that the video did it for me, anyone know the release date?

    Jill Scott does it again, OMG, number 14 is my favorite!

  39. Dame

    Alicia is beautiful but a tad bit werid to me.

  40. Lynn1

    Syunning A Keys. Just Stunning.

  41. Hip Hop is my baby mama

    Wow…another Alicia Keyes cover.

    It would be nice to see more dark skinned or thick sistas doing covers…

  42. KSH

    She looks good. The look is sexy and classy. I am impressed.

  43. ^^^^Any dark skinned thick sistas coming out with albums? Umm…no…

    For a second I didn’t know that was her on the cover, but she looks nice, as usual.

  44. Lady Architect

    She looks very nice in these photos…very classy

  45. Riva

    She looks really good…The last pic is hot, I love those jeans, work it girl, lol. She’s doin’ her damn thang!

  46. Alicia you are simply gorgeous..and thats all you need to be…modest. Its goes alonnng way…like the sayin a lil seems more than enough….but I most be honest that new single is not doin it for moi…but I believe the next single might bomb out the first soooo until then I still have love for you…YOUR representin R&B in a good light and real music fans has been missin you…call out all the others to represent becuz these phonys are tryin to take over….

    Hip Hop is my baby mama – TOO many hate on darkin sistahs and thick voluptuous women…but dont worry yall….hate only equalz love…plz remember that…and sometimes with hate comes along with envy and jealousy…surface wise… but deep down its love and “I wish I was you”…lol…. ;)
    Dark skin women to me are soooooo very pretty…soo pretty in fact its a misunderstood pretty…Thick women are beautiful as well…because most thick women have a strong modest confidence about themselves that most thin slim women dont have because most are too concerned about weight. So sad :(

  47. I only like the cover pic & the middle pic in the second string of pics.

    That middle pic is DOPE as hell.

  48. natural mystique

    I’ll definitely grab an issue of this magazine b/c I see Grace Jones is featured in it.
    Now THAT’S an intriguing person IMO.
    Alicia’s really talented and pretty, but she bores me.

  49. natural mystique

    #36– Wow, I just realized we basically made the same comment.
    Grace Jones is an icon!

  50. Jeremiah

    I love me some A. Keys but they Photoshop this picture to death. She still looks pretty though.

  51. dctrinigyal

    ALICIA LOOKS GREAT

  52. NYC NYC

    I hate how they slimmed out that nose on that cover, granted she has had job…but damn.

  53. mogul_in_the_making

    she`s too beautiful………..its not eveb funny anymore

  54. She looks pretty! She’s rockin th elegant looks!
