As much as i like Alicia , I must admit that i think she has a weird body! Maybe she does not work out as much as Bee cause Bee’s body is bangin. Now everybody would know that i have been considered as a Bee’s hater more than once! Alicia body is really weird to me but her face is priceless, and her talent is beyond everybody in the industry in my opinion!!!

And i really don’t understand why you keep wanting someone to be better than the others. I mean how many CD do you really have. Do you listen only to the one you consider the hottest? Just a question??
I don’t know for some reasons, i think people who have that kind of attitude don’t really like music, cause music is about variety!!!

Alicia looks FAB-U-LOUS!!!! Love love love her style these days. I knew she thick but my goodness! Keys is working it!
Clearly she’s the only person’s pics I SEE in the post, so I’m lost as to why Beyonce’s name is mentioned. Do you haters miss her that much that you have to find any and every opportunity to talk about her??!! Wow, ya’ll need more prayers than I can offer!

Ok, so I sounded “STUPID” to you…whateva…I’m aware most celebs have to have something done extra to make them stand out from the masses. Really, who cares…. Some just get more work done than others. This post is about Alicia. She’s one of my favorite performers and looks great to me. I look forward to hearing more great, meaningful music from her. Case closed.

DEAD @ THE HATERS NOT BEING ABLE TO GIVE ALICIA HER COMPLIMENTS WITHOUT COMPARING HER TO BEYONCE FOR VALIDATION.
DEAD @ ALICIA BEING A NATRUAL BEAUTY. NOT WITH ALL THAT WEAVE AND MAKE UP TO COVER UP HER ACNE COZ WE’VE ALL SEEN HER PRO ACTIVE COMMERCIAL
DEAD @ ALICIA BEING A BETTER SINGER. ALICIA ISN’T EVEN A VOCALIST.NOT WITH THAT STRAINING AND OFF KEY SINGING ON HER LIVE PERFORMANCES AND CD.SHE MIGHT WANNA HOLLA AT MARIAH SOUND ENGINEER TO HELP COVER UP THAT MESS

i can’t help but look at Alicia differently since she hated on gangsta rap. I’m sorry, but I can’t get past it anymore. And, all though I appreciate the visual, the dress is not that flattering. Her boobs are too small for it, and she does not have the best legs for it, and that line is throwin me off lol. All-n-all, Alicia gets a C+ for this.

It amazes me that only the females are complaining about her body. You women are your own worse enemies. SMH. I think her body is bangin. I would love to see how some you lonely, middle-aged plus size women look like. Most of you women are oily pimpled face too so quick acting,like you never had pimples before. If you can’t stand her so much, why do you waste your percious time hating on her when you could be doing something more positive and productive in your life? I guess most of y’all know that y’all can’t compete with her even with the pimples and the tomboyish looks and feel threaten so you have to hate. Let me tell you, it’s not necessary, there’s somebody for everybody. Please stop the comparisons. They’re both beautiful…..PERIOD!

@ 163 WELL I TAKE THAT BACK! LOLOL #161 just ruined it. But hey he sound kinda questionable. Nothing personal man. But you me throw me off giving fashion critics. . 1) she said her words were taken out context and 2) she entitled to her opinion. I don’t agree with what she said but I still have love her.

Marc - Not all women are haters. Only insecure women drag other women down with their negative opinions because they themselves are miserable . . .and like my momma says misery loves company.
AK is beautiful and i’d kill just about anybody to get a pair of those shoes, shoot, I’ll take em in any size, lol.

Can someone properly define hating, why can’t it just be one persons opinion? Hatin’ is the most overused word in the black community. Some people thinks she is the greatest some don’t. Most have both of them in their Ipods

I agree that the word hating is overused, but I do think many people do it and I think the big distinction between hating and opinions is based on some of these comments. If you don’t like what she’s wearing or you are not into her music then just say I’m not really feeling the dress or She’s not my type of artist, but I think the hating comes in when people say things like “that B***h is fat or the B***h can’t sing etc. The name calling and things makes me think of hating cause it is uncalled for. I also can’t stand when people hang out in blogs just to keep posting negative things about someone. That is no longer an opinion that is just pure hate. I donno that’s my take on the difference in opinions and hate.

@SimonCowell please reread my post instead of making asinine comments. i said akeys doesn’t dance on stage like a ho, i didn’t say dancing on stage makes someone a ho. do you get it or did that get past you? it’s simple really. dancing on stage doesn’t make someone a ho but when you dance like a ho (wearing skimpy outfits on stage so that when you open your legs everyone can see almost everything) and you’re on stage then you’re dancing on stage like a ho. akeys would NEVER do that b/c she has more class than that. and i never said akeys didn’t wear makeup. i said she doesn’t wear POUNDS of makeup unlike bee (bee’s face always looks caked up w.o makeup) instead of giving me that $20, you might want to buy a hooked on phonics book b/c your reading comprehension skills are off. the only thing be has over akeys is her voice and body (i like akeys but her legs are not cute. bee has a great shape and has good vocals)

Wow…I was wondering about the hoopla going on in here…and I soon found out…it’s funny how people are jumping on the girl who made a comment about Beyonce…but there were already 3 comments before that were “tearing” Beyonce down…but no one commented on that.
I personally enjoy both womens’ songs and I agree that their style is totally different, so there is no need to down one to uplift the other…I think Alicia looks very pretty in the pictures and I wish her continued success.

Wednesday, April 30, 2008 /
i luv ms.keys shades in the last pics!!! she is gorgeous so idk y ppl r hating on her….the same ones talkin -ish probably look a hot mess. She is thick but she’s working with what God gave her.
A.Keys and Bey are 2 completely different artists so i have no idea y ppl wud even try 2 compare them. Bey isnt an ugly girl I jus think she never looks like a normal female, and think that’s one of the problems ppl may have with her. A.Keys looks more like a chick i wud c around the way or on the train. Bey always has this wild blonde weave and tons of makeup. i wud also like 2 add…….. those of u who say Bey has a better body, she fasts and starves herself to have that body its not natural, look at her mom Tina lol.

The makeup and hair is on point. The dress is a no, no. You should not be able to see her thong in the dress. Her stylist should have been on top of that. It is obviously too small since she has to pull it down as she walks. Like the pant look better.

She is beautiful and those gray shoes just made me have an “experience” lol lets keep it at that…
Women can be so, so vicious….let ppl be. thats the female problem, always comparing yourselves or just comparing other females in general.
They are both beautiful i think either 1 of them with out make up and natutal hair would still be beautiful. I think any1 who can speak so ill of either has a problem lol if u say AK looks bad, or that Bey can’t sing blah blah blah….come on ppl look past the hate.

Let me break it down…
As a man, I have to say that I’d wife this woman over ANY other chick that’s in the game and poppin’, ANY given day of the week. This woman has a beautiful shape. But more importantly, this woman knows how to carry herself well. She can handle a conversation or interview and speak her mind on things. And that speaking voice, that smile, just unbelievably sexy. Sh*t, even the way she tries to dance in that performance. Everyone knows she ain’t no amazing dancer, but the way she moves is just…

Why Beyonce always pops up in every single thread? I know, she’s a great performer, the international appeal with the talent to match, but it’s just sad how yall, ESPECIALLY the woman, keep comparing other women. Where does it stem from? Insecurities? Damn. They’re both beautiful and talented, so keep it at that.

As I Am was released in November [2007] and its May. she’s sold 5 milllion copies,
in that much time.
when B-Day was released in September [2006] and its sold 7 million to-date.
you said that right?

they are both TALENTED , BLACK WOMEN.

Excuse me but most women SHOW ALICIA KEYS LOVE Marc. People in this thread (and not the vast majority of this thread - it’s the same names in a back and forth war) use the dissing tactics to big up Beyonce, it’s a stan thing, if an effeminate-fabulous Gay Man was competition to Beyonce he would be torn apart too, it’s just automatic. Some names are neutral and ppl just assume genders. Millions of women buy her music and admir her. I have YET to hear a woman say anything negative about Alicia in real life. And I have straight male cousins who, like #161, criticize her looks cause she’s supposedly not “physically fit enough”.

@203 and 163 Nowhere did I said that all women are haters the post . So let’s get that straight. This post alone shows that. As many people love Alicia there are many more people that hate her and that’s the truth. I constantly here females saying negative things about Alicia. It so happens that most are female. Some women sometimes feel more comfortable to say something negative about another female than they are to say something positive. Now do men do this? Of course they do, but women do it more often and that’s the truth. Hopefully won’t get offened.
@193 i agree with you.
i too believe the word hater is over used in our communities as well.

@55.. I totally agree.. and I think we are like the only two people that see that.
Yes, Alicia is Beautiful, and the shoes are Killer.. HOWEVER.. That Dress is a little too tight. She’s too hot for you to be seein her G-string line like that. WTF? I would have just opted for no panties at all if you’re gonna wear something so close to ur skin.
Smart move on the bra though, AK.. So glad ur bra lines aren’t showing.
It simply bothers me when you can see all of a woman’s business goin on underneath their clothing. We all make mistakes though..lol.

@ MARC, ok. But on the real, we have 2 different personal experiences because the people I’ve heard dissing her around me were males, no joke.

Alicia looks beautiful in these photos. I love that grey dress and the matching shoes. I don’t think the dress is too tight at all. It shows off Alicia’s cute figure (who knew Miss Keys had a booty?!) But she could have rocked some Spanx with the dress, instead of a thong. On a dress that close-fitting, even a G-string will show! But a good look, overall.

@ 53 You are seriously twisted. That hoe Beyonce was a train wreck the whole time while in Destiny’s Child rockin those ugly ass braids. Check out your girl B at the MTV music awards. The God awful gold disco dress with those big ass disco ball earrings and that big ass sea biscuit weave. That hoe wears more weave than the law allows. And let’s not forget that gold daisy duke shortset that her no styling as mama designed. All that make-up and those ugly ass lacefronts she is nowhere near being a natural beauty.She always looks like a hooker. Without all the sh*t she wears, she looks like any other regular trick. Oh and let’s not mention her ass can’t sing a lick all of that damn virbato. She’s a overtrained mediocre half naked assshaker. If the bitch didn’t show her ass no one would be interested and she is as dumb as a bag of rocks!

I THINK THAT ALICIA LOOK BETTER THAN BEYONCE; ALICIA WEARS MAKEUP BECAUSE SHE IS HIDING HER ACNE PROBLEM; BEYONCE WEARS MAKEUP TO LOOK MORE GLAMOROUS- BIG DIFFERENCE. BEYONCE IS BEAUTIFUL, BUT ALICIA IS A NATURAL BEAUTY. ALL ALICIA HAS TO DO IS GET HER SKIN TREATED, AND SHE WOULD NOT NEED AN OUNCE OF MAKEUP.

@#124 WTF ,Hoe wake up and be real with yourself. You silly hoe, As I Am sold 3 million copies in 2 months( that’s 8 weeks for your slow ass) after it’s release. It took that lame ass bullshit B’Day almost a year for that hoe to sell 3 million. It was straight booty! And you prove the point Alicia only dropped As I Am in November and it’s just May, 6 months and she’s at 6 million. She had the highest debut of any female R&B artist with 742,000 sold her first week at #1 on billboard 200 albums chart and #1 on World Charts at 876,00. Beyonce has nothing on A Keys. that hooker could only dream of that kind of success with her no acting ass. Alicia’s As I Am held #1 for several weeks dropped a couple spots and then regained #1 again. To put it simple she’s killin you hoes especially Beyonce. Better yet take your dumb ass back to sleep!

Alicia looks beautiful (as normal). There is nothing wrong with the dress or her breasts. I am loving that Alicia is embracing her womanhood more. She is sexy and glamorous but, she is still around-the-way and down-to-earth. She is also very intelligent and that makes her even more sexy.
I am so happy that some people still have an idea of what real music and artistry is because her new album “As I Am” is incredible. It deserves all of the praise that it has gotten and I hope she goes on to sell millions more. It shows her growth and versatility as an artist and it represents for the real grown folks.

lmao @ yall arguing back and forth
i find that to be hilarious shit. What’s the point in arguing back and forth? neither one of you is gonna change your opinion on whomever to satisfy the other person, get over it.
Alicia is beautiful. She’s always been beautiful. And folks just said she looked like a “dyke” because she wore her hair in braids and never wore dresses.
Aaliyah never wore dresses either (at first), was she a dyke? No. Sometimes when you go outside of what you normally are used to, for a change, EVEN JUST FOR YOURSELF, you might grow to like it. How do any of you know that she didn’t want to change her style up on her own and just hired a stylist to help her?
i like this look of alicia. She looks elegant. The dress is ok, im not too fond of it, the shoes are nice tho. I like the other look better tho. She looks comfortable without over doing it.

The VPL were especially obvious while she was on the show singing. And every breath in or out was obvious because of that elastic around her waist which made her pooch stand way out–very unflattering. YOUNG PEOPLE go buy you some spanx… so many of you talking about a classy look and VPL is never a classy look. Ask the olkd folks what a good “foundation” will do for your appearance. Look at the old black films from the 20s and 30’s up to the clips of the Supremes and the female groups from the 60’s.
With that said, other than that one thing (common mistake(trend?) amongst younger women) Alicia looks great otherwise and yes those shoes are fierce.
