When she first stepped on the scene, Alicia Keys says she looked “rough around the edges.” But now that’s all changed. Gracing the November issue in a seductive, strawberry-red gown suspended in mid-air, Keys talks about her six-year, secret love and how she overcame depression. The soul sensation says she is back stronger than ever with a newfound confidence as she releases her latest CD, As I Am. Alicia shares with EBONY who she is and reveals to her fans where she is going. Make sure you pick up a copy, in stores now. Alicia is also covering the new issues of Complex & Uptown magazine.
Also, after the cut is a video of Alicia Keys laying down some tracks in the studio. I’m excited to hear her new album.
For more Alicia Keys video and news make sure you check out the Krucial Keys blog. I love how everyone is getting a blog now, it’s making it easier to keep tabs on the stars. lol!
I’m not really a fan of hers, but I like her new song and the pics are cute.
She looks nice. Can’t wait for the album!
She Looks So Bomb in these pix lately….she better do her thang lol
I like the picture.
She’s such a beautiful woman.
She is a beautiful woman!!!
wow, this gurl is really sexy.
The Ebony cover is nice.
I like Alicia Keys-very talented and beautiful. I still love “You Don’t Know My Name” that’s my joint!
LOVE the dress on the cover. The pose is horrible though. The craned-neck up the nostril shots AREN’T her friend. The hair & makeup isn’t good either. JMO
She is more ladylike now that she has dropped the braids. I don’t like the way she sings “no one” but I like her point.
Love it! I can’t wait for her album. No One had to grow on me and I love it.
Alicia Keys is really one of those artist I feel safe to say has staying power she is really naturally talented she has one of those strong voices that doesn’t need computers unlike Rhianna who can’t sing. Alicia looks beautiful. I guess if you are not a big fan of hers it would be because she is intimidating that is why she is with a man who is not intimidated by her success Kerry Krucial. Sometimes people dislike you if you are better meaning prettier, smarter, more successful. In other words ugly women don’t like pretty women you don’t have to do anything wrong they just feel intimidated. Some men only date ugly, dumb women because a pretty, smart, successful, confident woman intimates them.
i like ak since ever ! i wasn’t a great fan though but i think she looks better now that she took some more weight !
I feel her latest song and i think as i am is going to work
yo angel if u have an interview planned with her don’t forget to ask her if she wants an african husband if it’s yes then give her my mail !!!!
STUNNING!!!!
She looks stunning!! Simply beautiful!!
You go Ms. Keys. You look more and more fab everytime we see you.. Keep doing your thing and we can’t wait for the album!
She looks great….#11..that’s funny…my friends and I were talking about how we also don’t like how she sings in “No One” the other day. I like the classic, motown soulful Alicia…not Reggae Alicia. In “No one”, she sounds like Baby Sham still left his incense in the studio…. Or maybe she recorded “no one” in Jamaica..who knows???
SHE LOOK BEAUTIFUL !!!!!!!!!!!!! REAL TALK
She look RADIANT…and the color does wonders for her!!! Just Fab~
I always thought A. Keys was so-so. Im not a huge fan but I don’t dislike her either. I like her new single and i’m liking her new look. I’ll be picking up her next CD along with this Ebony magazine. I wonder what she was depressed about and hopefuly she has some real tips on how to overcome it casue it’s really hard.
Alicia looks awesome!!!! Go keys… Can’t wait for the album!!!!!
Love A.Keys always been a fan and always will b.
The look is gorgeous. That dress fits her perfectly. Looks very Diana Ross…
Her sound is soooo soothing. I can’t wait til this album drops. “No One” is my morning wake up anthem in between many rounds of Jill Scott’s – “Hate on Me”
So I will be sure to pick up that Ebony!
SMH @ 13 – leave to someone to as simple photo into a physco-analysis…lol
I’M NOT A FAN OF ALICIA BUT HER NEW SONG IS THE ISH. SHE LOOK GORGOUS IN THAT DRESS.
Love Alicia beautiful and talented whats this love in her life She is such a strong woman I think she looked good w/ Mos Def in that video *sidebar * is he married* she needs someone like him
wow…for some reason…when i seen Alicia on the cover..i thought about God..
lol..like she could’ve played the part of God in Dogma or some shyt..
anybody else get this feelin..?
I loved her look when she first hit the scene minus the acne. Most of these celebrities need to realize that “plain” can be just as beautiful.
Love the picture her pose reminds me of Diana Ross.
She’s a class act, and a profound spirit. I heart her!
There is something sexy about Alicia. She is a beautiful individual.
Nice dress
Flawless
I LOVE ALICIA!!
she looks beautiful as always!
I am getting little tired of Ms. Keys weekly magazine spreads, I just hope her album and changed image is more than fluff, and her music is right on point. So pleople so distracted on image that their true talent suffers, hope this is not the case.
I LIKE ALICIA. BUT THE BIGGER QUESTION I HAVE IS WHERE CAN I FIND THOSE BIG WIDE HOOPS SHE HAS ON IN HER NEW VIDEO>
#10…don’t make me come down there…..alicia is the shit….NO MATTER WHAT!!!…period…even though I don’t like her first single….actually I think it suck….no matter….she is a real artist…my fav artist..a true artist…will be getting the cd…..no other artist has me buying there cd even if I don’t like there singles
#38. I didn’t say anything about her music.
She’s very beautiful. This is one of the best covers I’ve seen lately of her. Her hair and make-up and dress was just right. Like I said she’s beautiful anyway. Anybody who disagrees is obviously a hater.
Love this woman so much! Probably too much…
She is so talented, beautiful and intelligent. I’m a hardcore fan. I just hope I don’t become like one of those crazy stans…
Anyways, I will be buying her album the first day it comes out on NOVEMBER 13TH.
ABSOLUTELY STUNNING!
SHE IS REALLY EMBRACING HER FEMININE SIDE, AND STEPPING UP HER LOOK-GLAM IS DEFINITELY HER
BUT WE ALL KNOW THAT SHE IS VERSATILE AND COULD DRESS DOWN IN SOME JEANS AND STILL LOOK JUST AS GOOD
SHE LOOKS GREAT AND I HOPE PEOPLE DON’T START TEARING HER APART AND CRITICIZING HER TO DEATH
damn shes on every mag i see
THERE SHOULD BE A RULE
IF YOU CAN’T POST A PICTURE OF YOURSELF LOOKING JUST AS GOOD OR BETTER THAN THE ARTIST YOU ARE CRITICIZING
THEN YOU SHOULDN’T CRITICIZE THEM AT ALL
ALL IN FAVOR SAY “I”

GIVE IT A REST COMPLEXNDOPE
nice cover
????????????????????
Is it me or are her breast growing????????????
she looks fiercely hot, reminds me of diana ross
i remember someone in a diff. post saying how Alicia needed a breat implant to up her sex appeal..
uhm no! alicia is perfect. she’s a classy-type sexy. big boobs does not always = sexy.
she’s classy; not trashyy.
The pose is horrible though
@ # 10
What do you mean she looks horrible ??? It’s a glamour shot and you probably can’t do any better yourself so save the snide remarks for someone else.
HATER
FAB-U-LOUS! LOL!!
LMFAO @ Bailey!!
Bailey – I agree!!!!!!!!
cough***complexndope***cough
Even though “No one” has already gotten old to me I can’t wait for the next single, and of course I buying the album…now she’s fem in the streets I love it… she’s super hot and she’s classy looking now without the braids (hoodrats take note) she has the R&B game on lock as far as I’m concerned.
the vid doesn’t work anymore!
Alicia looks great on this cover, and on the inside of the magazine! She is such a pretty lady!
To the people who have issues with “No One” you need to read some of the interviews alicia has been doing. Dig just a little deeper and understand what the girl is doing with her music. From listening to what she has to say about this new album and what is being said on her blog, and by artists like John Mayer this is going to be an album that sets alicia apart even more. She is an artist not just an entertainer. People should recognize the difference. She is using different sounds, different mics, and collaborating with people you wouldn’t expect her to. Can’t wait for the new CD!
She look purty to me and I love her dress.
she looks beautiful
classic
She looks beautiful, and the pose is classy, she’s not squatting showing her @$$ to the world. Them nasty Charmed School/Flavor of Love/Rock of Love girls need to be more classy like her.
I have such a crush on Alicia.
#36 I don’t get it. It’s called promoting. She is about to drop an album so that means magazines, TV apperances, small shows, etc…
You have to actually read the interviews to get an idea of what the music is gonna be like.
I personally don’t see this as a new image, Alicia is being herself. She has changed and she talks about that in this interview. She isn’t the 19 year old girl from 2001 she is a woman. I’m in need of a full album, I’m sick of all these people who make two good singles then I plop down my $10.54 and get a bunch of crap. 11/13 As I Am!
