RANDOM PICS: JAY-Z & ALICIA KEYS PERFORM DURING GAME 2 + VIDEO
Friday, October 30, 2009

Rapper Jay-Z and recording artist Alicia Keys performed in front of the sell-out crowd at Yankee Stadium with a rendition of the Big Apple anthem “Empire State of Mind” on Thursday night. I guess they got the whole place amped because the Yankees beat the Phillies in Game 2. Peep video of the performance below.

You guys are silly. They just finished a performance so of course they’re going to be all happy with eachother. What do you expect him to do hug her and walk away? Or just stand there not smiling? Uhh no.
And lol yeah they did say they were “Off” Timbs .. lol maybe they’re not really Timbs .. maybe their ‘Lugz’ ..
Still loove Jay-Z!

I see a lot of people are calling her a “homewrecker” and all that. People always quick to go after the female, hell what about Swiss???? He the one that was married not Alicia, and according to the bible he is all the way WRONG!!! I hate women that want to go after the mistress and then let the damn husband have it easy, or get back with them after they have cheated….THE MAN IS JUST AS WRONG IF NOT WORSE!!!! He knew what he was doing, Alicia ain’t put no gun to his head!!!
I got to comment on this cheap, Rainbow store outfit she is rockin!!! WTF was she thinking about? It looks cheap and all over the place, come on Alicia? She should’ve did black boots and a black motorcycle leather jacket I would’ve preferred that, anything but the Pepto Bismol fit!!! You look a HAM Alicia……

Alicia for the 100th TIME is not any Home wrecker.
SWIZZ was over his MARRIAGE and in Divorce Proceedings before he started TALKING to Alicia Keys.
You Zombies type the SAME BS all the time because you can’t STAND Strong Empowered Women. And it’s interesting it’s mostly other Women making these Silly comments because they are Jealous that Alicia is beautiful and Talented. People can’t stand it. It’s always the insecure women who side with Swizz’s Lazy wife who only put Alicia’s name into this because she wants to use that to get more money from Swizz and to sell a new BOOK.
Typical LAZY people who can’t stand other successful women.
Rihanna and Alicia are A OK and don’t mind what HATERS say on BLOGS.
Now Alicia girl those pink books are a hot mess.
But I love ya Girl!

@ 31 You may have a point that some comments are made out of jealousy, but she shouldn’t get a pass just because she’s Alicia Keys…Dude is not divorced yet and they weren’t divorced when they starting going together so that makes them both adulterers plain and simple just like your boy Kells is a pedophile. There’s no sugar coating that. You just have to separate the artist from the person because they are tremendously talented, but human just like everybody else. At the end of the day it is what it is. When you ask for fame, ridicule and judgment along with no privacy is also what you ask for. Exactly why TI say he’d rather have the money than the fame. It’ll ruin you if you’re not careful maybe even be the death of you. Alicia gets most of the slack because she’s more in front than Swizz. He’s good at what he do, but her star status is bigger. Going after the mistress has always been prevalent in society (nothing new about that), but they are both to blame and the husband is more to blame because he’s the one that made the commitment not the other woman. It’s a messy situation for all parties involved.

@ 36 Cublktigress
Are you nuts? How are you putting Alicia Keys in the same sentence as R. Kelly.
If a person is in DIVORCE PROCEEDINGS. You don’t have to wait for that to be OVER before you look into other relationships. This is 2009. And if people mutually decide that the relationship if OVER and hire a Lawyer and move forward with a divorce then it’s not Adultery. These are grown ups. Swizz’s wife however is very insecure. She had no LIFE outside of her husband’s success and to see him looking towards Alicia must have thrown her over the deep end. And she made the choice to try and throw Alicia’s name into this via Twitter. This type of actions should be against the law because this is smearing someone’s name. I would never give Alicia a pass if she was cheating with a married man. But Alicia has shows us over the years where she stands in terms of her moral character. She has done more for women’s issues with her music than most who only sing about things that lower women’s self esteem. Stop passing judgment on a situation you half understand. Alicia’s work in the past should assure you of her MORAL character. Swizz’s wife is your typical lazy woman who put everything behind a man and she now discovered that her life is not what she thought it was now that he wants OUT. If she listened to Alicia’s music more she would have been inspired to do more for herself and been strong enough to handle that the relationship was OVER and not behaved like some child with a Twitter Account trying to pull Alicia into her personal Drama. It’s so typical to attack the new woman than to take responsibility for her relationship with the man who made vows to you.

I LOVE ALL THE HATE IN THIS POST. People come in here to watch the video, then criticize as they sit at there cubicles at work, WISHING they had the opportunity to do what AK or Hov has done. I seen comment on AK bi-racial heritage..this sht is all laughable. More importantly, you say all this as you SPECTATE!
Appreciate it for the moment and/or move on. No other ARTISTS in any genre has performed as part of the Fall Classic. Half time shows at football and basketball game are one thing, but MLB is known for being a lot more stringent when it come to these type of things. So Hov & AK just went down in the annals of history!
Jay is the best EVER and this is coming from a die-hard 2Pac fan. No other Hip-Hop artist has pushed the perimeters of the culture more than Jay. Yeah, yeah, I know you’ll have the PE’s and BDP and Rakim, etc. debates. But if you had to pic ONE ambassador of the culture in terms of everything is it, the good, bad, indifferent, commerce, message and music…its Jay-Z. He embodies ALL this all while making Hip-Hop become more Adult AC formatted at radio. Talking about issues relevant to his current lifestyle sprinkled with a bit of his past. He’s surpassed the bang, bang/murder, murder some artist can’t get past.
Me being a NY’er I have no bias behind my statement, its just the truth of the matter. This song is good for this reason alone, Jay is stating what HIS NY is without saying or putting down other areas/locations of the country.
Enjoy the best while he’s doing it!
Stay up y’all!

@ Furious Styles
Well, what’s the difference wrong is wrong. I’m just making an example. Society standards have one wrong being greater than the other. Biblically they are equally as wrong. True you can’t take away from her accomplishments, but just like everybody else in this world she has flaws and trust plenty of people before her and during her time has done way more, but if you peep into their personal lives you’d find that they weren’t perfect at all. We’re human. How are you passing judgement on Mashonda, you don’t know her either and just like the rest of us you don’t know the whole situation. If you were really up on things you’d know that this was an issue wayyy before the twitter letter. Which, I personally would not have done that, but that’s just what some women scorned do. I put in Rkelly because hey he’s just as talented if not more talented than alicia but his personal character is flawed just like everybody else. Whether he considered himself done or not is not the issue he was still married and still is and it’s still adultery plain and simple. Just call a spade a spade, but that doesn’t make her a bad person all the way around, she just made a mistake like I’m sure you do everyday just like the rest of us. Celebrities are the same as everyday people you see around the way it’s just that they are on TV and under a microscope. But at the end of they no one should be that invested in a celebrity’s life (unless you know them personally) (including myself) because it’s not going to affect you one way or another.

Sorry but you are not correct. Alicia Keys did not commit any Adultery PERIOD.
You are speculating and you are 100% Wrong. And R Kelly is a totally different situation. No person like you said is without sin. I never said Alicia Keys is perfect but she dam sure is not guilty of any Adultery. And Swizz is an Adult and if he wanted out of the Marriage that is his choice. Swizz’s wife is behaving very immaturely and she is the one who keeps brining Alicia’s name up. Alicia has enough class not to respond to these baseless allegations and her FANS know she has nothing to do with Swizz not wanting to be with his X wife anymore. The Twitter incidents (and she has taken to twitter and Gossip Blogs Multiple times) show how desperate Swizz’s wife has become.
Alicia’s character is SOLID.
Swizz has made the choice he wants to move in without his X and that does not fall into Adultery.

@ furious styles
Maybe he did want out of the marriage but HELLO he’s still married. If you consult Webster’s dictionary you would see that if you’re married and messing with other people and the person you’re messing with is committing adultery. If Swizz wants nothing to do with Mashonda then that’s him and her, but it still does not change the fact that it is adultery. You dont have to be having sex with that person to commit adultery. They been an item way before the twitter incident and before the birth of his son. They may not have been sexually involved but involvement of the emotions and quality time is the same thing. Sorry, but yes she is and he is and who knows maybe Mashonda is too an adulterer. So what, she’s not the first and won’t be the last that just how life works sometimes. It’s karma you gotta watch out for. Not the bloggers or opinions of others, but karma as she sings is that real bitch. You can believe what you want and btw I like her music too, but that doesn’t mean I have to agree with everything Alicia keys the person does. Being a true fan is not turning a blind eye but being able to see through the bs and like them despite their flaws.

You can keep typing the same lie over and over that does not then make it into FACT. Just like when Swizz’s X takes to Twitter with her nonsensical drama also does not make it true. I see you are very LITERAL and in your mind it’s adultery until the Divorce is final and that is 100% not true. I get so tired of people who act like it’s biblical days. LOL Once Swizz separated from his wife (which he was) and AFTER he informed her that he wanted a DIVORCE and After a lawyer is hired to move forward with Divorce proceedings it’s fine for Swizz to look into other relationships. That is the end of that marriage. Swizz has done the responsible thing. And please spare me like you know so much about when Swizz began talking to Alicia. You only know what you know from his X Wife’s account of things which is totally false. If you read any of her tweets you will discover this woman is desperate to ingratiate herself on to Alicia to get a response and to help with her settlement and new BOOK.
So just be careful you are not Alicia’s Keys’ Judge you worry about you and stop typing BS about Alicia being an Adultery. She has shown nothing in the past that would lead you to beleive she would destroy a marriage. And if she did do that I would NEVER support her. I go by what Alicia has shown and the person she is. Not Internet gossip and a scorned woman who has no life. Her beef should be with one person Swizz. Stop calling out Alicia’s name. And you need to stop associating her name with R. Kelly’s you’re not slick.

Ya’ll females kill me hating on people constantly…”homewrecker” this and “homewrecker” that..when the only side you have even heard of the story is Moshanda’s. Swizz and Alicia have been together a while now, their relationship is nothing new..the only reason why some people are talking about it is because before this, Alicia didn’t have any shade in her background. Before some people used to call her a lesbian and now she’s a homewrecker. Please, Swizz has said a while ago that it was Moshanda that was holding up the divorce proceedings because she wanted more money, it was all over the blogs..they should have been divorced..so if she wants to hold up the divorce proceedings over some petty nonsense and they are seperated then I say Swizz and Alicia should continue to do them.
And the reason why I dont care for Moshandas side is because everytime you hear from her she seems to always blame Alicia..blame Swizz, he decided to leave a long time ago, thats all im sayin’. Alicia is still going to sell her albums regardless, her talent is undeniable..and its only black people that are quick to hate. When her single got posted a few weeks back on here and Perez hiltons sites, the contrast between the comments were hilarious. People on this site were hating hella hard and people over there could care less just as long as she continues to be as talented as she is.

@ Furious Styles
LOL…you’re too funny. Just say you’re an Alicia Keys stan and be done. You say you sick of people acting like it’s biblical times. What is biblical times? It’s all just history isn’t it? It’s not fiction that they are in an adulterous relationship. It’s fact no matter how much it hurts you to face it. You’ll be ok, sweetie. It’s not that serious. I didnt even read Mashonda’s twitter letter before someone put it on a blog. This affair is way older than that it’s been going on since before Alicia threw him a b-day party. Who cares but you can’t control what anybody says just like I can’t control what you say or what you believe. Nobody would be talking about it if they didn’t put themselves into the limelight for all to see and trust Mashonda’s letter was just the icing on the cake. It’s old news matter of fact last year news if you visit other blogs and listen to the lyrics of one of Swizz’s songs. Just because they are separated doesn’t make them not married. Why would you in the midst of your “separation” make a baby? That’s not a true separation. He just had one foot in and one foot out the door. Truth Hurts but it’ll set you free once you stop drinking the koolaid and take off your blinders. She’s just one of many, Michael Jordan, greatest basketball player of all time was also an adulterer, let’s see, Magic Johnson, Biggie, Jennifer Lopez, Brad Pitt, so she’s not alone and their all super talented people who are just like everybody else…oh and Rkelly is also an adulterer. We’re not perfect, we’re human and just because two people are separated or their is trouble in the marriage is not an invitation for someone else to step in or for the spouse to seek out someone else. Finish one thing before you start something else. Swizz should have had enough respect for Alicia to divorce Mashonda along time ago before getting started with Alicia knowing full well that the other woman will be the one to catch all the slack when it’s mostly his fault. The only victim here is not any of the adults but the child who has to live through this nonsense everybody else is grown.

GREAT JOB! GO YANKEES!!!!!!!! fuck you faggot ass hating nigs! you get your smelly ass out there and lets see your outcome, not going to be a good thing for you, they did great at staying with the tempo of the song, it has to be real hard singing in a stadium with all that echo effect going on. i wish i could meet some of you ignorant people and put you in your fucking place.

You people killed me with this jay-z and beyonce garbage. Trust Jay-z is very happy with his wife and yes he do smiles when he is with her. Why are there so many haters and not lovers when it comes to them two. Stop assuming things are going wrong or bad for them because they are just fine and happy that’s why they decided to keep the media out of their business for just this reason. Remember they have been together for over 7 years and still going strong and stronger.

Alicia has a pear shape body type. Small on the top and big on the bottom. I think it would always be hard for her to control how wide or thick her thigh get because of her body type. Its obviously that if she gains any weight it goes straight to her legs and hips. She does look nice. The boots would look better if they were ankle length and not thigh high.

WTF?! Am I the only person that has noticed that Jay barely touches his wife in public. He doesn’t even escort her when she is wearing 8 inch heels. But he is quite the gentleman for every other broad. Can the guys help me out with this one cuz I don’t understand it.

@ 104 MISS
Jay does walk with his wife and is very affectionate with her in fact.
You mostly see those image abroad when they walk hand and hand and cuddle.
But in the city you see them leaving or entering places and Bey usually walks ahead or behind because they don’t want to encourage the paps and have people talking about their relationship.
Jay and B want their relationship out of newspapers because they feel that adds more pressure on them. Jay is very private when it comes to his relationships.
But they are very close.

Co-sign with #94 i love how people assume that things are bad between jay n bey or even worse predicting how they’re heading to divorce by next really? how do yall know? r u family friends, solange’s friends? relatives? how do u wish people marriage to end and how’s that gonna make u happy? i just don’t get it!! All i know is bey and jay are just really smart and would do anything to keep the media and people like yall haterz out of their marriage, i think that’s wat drive them nuts thta they can’t get the whole picture of their relationship on display and i understand their disguse lool

Ahhhh! It was so refreshing to see two of my idols performing together, singing a song about New York, a aplace I’m from, and to see Alicia Keys wearing my favorite color. I love both of them and I enjoyed the performance. But I would like to say to those calling Alicia Keys a “homewrecker,” always remember it takes two and don’t judge because you don’t know all the details. Also…there was nothing wrong with her outfit.

@ 51 thats what up yo! Ya haters need to stop hating! If ya were real NewYorkers and real Yankee fans then ya would know why they so happy in those pictures. It ain’t nothing like performing at home in front of millions of NewYorkers (after all it is home). Call it what you want but we are unique and one of a kind with our style like it or not. Trust me if that outfit was handed to one of ya hating b****** ya would rock it…lol

@ #60 Yes, I agree. I tell my man that all the time! he thinks just because she’s thick she has an ass! I think it’s worse for you to be thick with no ass, then thin with no ass. It’s expectecd! LOL

Homewrecker? No one gets forced out of a marriage, he’s a grown ass man and made his big boy decisions and left willingly. I’m sure she didnt put a gun to his head and dont forget to blame him for being a cheating husband..
As for Alicia’s horrendous get up…. [sigh] no comment
Now there only one thing missing, a Lil Mama stage cameo
