of the biggest nights of her career to date. It's the most in-depth look at
one of the world's leading vocal talents and it's only on MTV Base!

notha level so be on the look out!" Keys also will be having an official
fan club set up as well. Read

> Thembisa S. Mshaka of Essence spoke with Glenn Lewis about how he felt
touring with Alicia Keys recently. Lewis gushed, "It was a blessing. So
much fun, it was dreamlike. So often you hear the story that the opening act
and the headliner never cross paths and it's just business, but Alicia shared
her experiences with me; success hasn't changed her in any way. I'm honored
that she heard my single and liked it enough to contact my manager and invite
me out on tour." Read

> You would think that after winning five Grammies and selling close to 5
million albums, Alicia Keys might find time for a summer vacation. On the contrary,
the braided wonder is delving deeper into work mode, touring and recording an
album. "First I'm finishing up the second half of my tour, which starts
July 3 in New Orleans at the Essence festival," Keys said, outlining her
plan of attack. "In the process, I'm always writing, recording, getting
out ideas. After I finish this second half of the tour, I'm going to be in the
studio hard, working on this next album. [I'm] really, really ready for it.
It's gonna be off the hook." Click

$630.00 and all proceeds go to the RAP-IT-UP charity.
> Alicia who is only 21 has been extremely successful with her debut album
"Songs In A Minor" and her hit "Fallin'". This year she
has received 5 Grammy Awards which hasn't changed her at all. However, journalists
have become even more interested in her life, making up stories when they couldn't
get any. Miss Keys has been very patient. "I don't know why it all happens,
but I can understand that some of them are only after the dark side of people.
If there is any positive information about somebody, people expect a negative
one about the same person. This is how they expect things to be. I don't take
seriously everything they write about me as there is little information that
can affect me. I am only 21 and haven't been into business for long. Maybe when
I'm older I'll have more scandals about myself" - said Alicia Keys.
> The award winning as SeenonScreen, the home of Star Style and Celebrity

April 06, 2002
> It's hard to remember now, but about this time a year ago very few people
had heard of Alicia Keys. What a difference a hit album makes. Even Keys herself
was surprised about her meteoric rise to fame. She told reporters that she's
amazed at how quickly her debut album, "Songs in A Minor," found a
broad audience. "The process of making the record was a long process, but
(commercial acceptance) was a little faster than I actually thought it would
be," Keys said. Thealbum went multiplatinum and won her five Grammy awards
last month, including song of the year for "Fallin'." Keys also picked
up three Soul Train Music Awards last week. The musician plans to use her newfound
success to help causes she believes in. She said she's looking forward to next
month's Urban Aid 2 benefit, which was put together by rap mogul Russell Simmons.
"I think it's something really beneficial and wonderful to raise awareness
and to be a part of," Keys said. "As young people we definitely need
to be aware of what's going on out here." Urban Aid 2 is set for April
9 in New York.
> Alicia's debut album is now in it's 34th week in the UK album chart and

> Keys Surprised by Quick Success. It's hard to remember now, but about this
time a year ago very few people had heard of Alicia Keys. What a difference
a hit album makes. Even Keys herself was surprised about her meteoric rise to

March 31, 2002
> Alicia Keys has revealed that her recent single, 'A Woman's Worth', was
inspired by a shampoo commercial. In an interview with BBC Radio 1, the Grammy
award-winning singer explained: "I was actually, really relaxed and I was
watching TV. One commercial came on and it said: "Because I'm Worth It'.
"I was like, 'Oh my gosh, I'm worth it, I'm worth it!'. And the thought
of being worth it just really made an impact on me."
> Keys Says People Were A Little Mean To Her Early On. Alicia Keys spoke
with Jacqui Swift of the Sun about how her singing wasn't so well received when
she was in school and just beginning her singing career. Keys said, "I
remember one time I was at school. I was just starting to sing to people. People
were a little bit mean because they wanted me to be a certain way and look a
certain way and it made me question things. I remember coming home and lying
under the covers and had a little cry. When I got up I went to the piano and
that was the first time I wrote a song called Troubles on my album."
> Nsync's Justin Timberlake spends the afternoon on Sunset Blvd, Los Angeles
with singer Alicia Keys. The pair had lunch before saying goodbye with a hug
and a kiss.

Also I've put 220 new pix to Live gallery.
March 29, 2002
> Miss Keys felt flattered when Prince himself told her that he liked her
version of his song. The hit "How Come You Don't Call Me" was on Keys'
debut album "Songs In A Minor". In June last year tha artist asked
Alicia to perform the same song during his birthday party. "He said he
loved my version. It was incredible. I felt like a queen" recellects Alicia.
(thx to Ashlee!)
> Alicia Keys was featured on Capital FM's 'Takeover' where she was interviewed
and played some of her favorite tunes. When asked about playing at the House
of Commons earlier this month, Keys responded, "I loved it, I loved every
minute of it. It was a time for me to meet a lot of kids from a lot of different
schools and also be able to just talk about different things and combine
politics with music and youth. It was just truly an individual experience,
I had a ball. Even though I think when some people think of the House
of Commons they think of something stuffy, we really had a wonderful time, and
I think it was a great experience." Listen to the entire feature here.
It's so cool! (windows media player require)

March 09, 2002
> Alicia was shocked at the news that started to appear in media that she
is a lesbian."I've heard those lies, but I guess I have to expect such
lies about myself being a person connected with music industry. People need
something to talk about. This information is a lie, but fortunately it does
not affect mt life at all. I am not a lesbian, and I'm not saying this to proove
that I am not as I perfectly know who I am. I am a woman who loves real, honest
and caring men. This is gosspi which I've just starighten up, so let's better
do something else. I have been going out with a man, whom I've known for long
and it's great to be with him" said Keys, she however wouldn't let us know
his name. My commentary: finally, maybe people cut out talking crap and drooling
about that subject.
> At Clive Davis' annual Grammy Eve party last year, the music mogul rolled
out his latest hot prospect, a singer/pianist Alicia Keys. Twelve months later,
she was Grammy's golden girl, taking home five trophies. So who did Davis introduce
this year? He may only be 13, but R&B singer Mario is poised to be the next
Clive Davis-groomed success story. In fact, Keys produced two songs for the
Baltimore native's as-yet-untitled debut album, due in June. Walking the red
carpet with Davis, the youngster said he does not feel any pressure to live
up to Keys. "Success comes from just being yourself and being natural with
what you do," he said. Mario, whose first single, the Campbell-produced
"Just a Friend," will hit the airwaves later in March, is confident
he will be around a while. When asked if he was able to convince Keys to sing
with him, he answered, "Nah, it's not a duet. Maybe next album." Later
at Davis' party, Mario showed his confidence by performing Stevie Wonder's "Knocks
Me Off My Feet".
> Alicia won an award for the new International Newcomer. THe awards were

March 02, 2002
> Here is what Alicia said right after the ceremony: "I'm very excited,
I'm very thrilled. I hope I didn't come off too silly in front of the mic, but
you get a little overwhelmed when you're up there." Asked if she was concerned
about coming up with a worthy successor to her debut album, Keys exhibited commendable
poise. "I'm not worried one bit," she said. "The way you top
anything is to create from your heart. I'm ready for the next album." She
unselfishly credited her manager Jeff Robinson with teaching her the fundamentals
for success. "He taught me to be involved in my career and never let anyone
take too much control," Keys said. "People always tell you that you
can't do something, but that's not true. You can do anything."
> More Grammy snaps here.
