Is Alicia’s Choice In Men Causing Her To Lose Fans?


If you all have been keeping up with Alicia Keys you would know that she has been dating Swizz Beatz who is currently married to Mashonda. Many have accepted Alicia Keys and Swizz Beats Relationship. Others are questioning Alicia Keys authentic as a singer. How can you appreciate ones music when behind closed doors they can be so conniving to steal another women’s husband? Mashonda sent Alicia Keys a letter via Twitter to let her know how she felt:

"After having a great evening with my son and enjoying some fun twit chat, I decided to sign off and get some work done. However, a few hours later I was advised that I should check @aliciakeys twit page. I’ve never reached out to her on twitter before. I feel our issues are a lot more serious than a website conversation. Not to mention that I’ve reached out to her many times in the beginning of this whole thing, as any wife would do. Unfortunately, I never succeeded in getting a response. The 1st time I meet AK, my husband introduced us to each other at an event. ( I have no choice but to call him my husband, until he is not anymore) In the messages that I sent to her (AK), I made it very clear that on the contrary of what she might be hearing, I am still married to my husband, living with him and just had a child. Its been two years and I still have not received a response. What I do receive, is constant displays of selfishness and disconcern to me and my son.

I was a fan of AK’s last album, we were both signed to J Records and I always checked up on her projects. I sang her songs and admired her for creating Superwoman and Karma, I would never deny her, her talent. I believed in her until I found out she was possibly sleeping with my husband. The affair was denied by both, until it was finally admitted months later.

Already I can hear some of you saying ” why are u blaming her, You cant make someone leave their wife, You cant break something thats broken”. Well, my marriage was not broken, as far as I knew we were celebrating our sons birth and getting ready to celebrate our 5 year wedding anniversary . Call it blind love, whatever. I call it being a devoted wife.. As far as me blaming her and not blaming him, thats false. Me and my husband have worked out our differences. We are in a good place as people and as parents. I accept his choices and I am comfortable enough with myself to move on. I am so very blessed in many ways.

My concern with AK is no longer the fact that she assisted in destroying a family but that she has the audacity to make these selfish comments about love and wanting to be with someone, even after knowing their situation. How is this the same Superwoman that I sang out loud with in my truck? I ask myself sometimes.

If you are reading this Alicia, let me start by saying, you know what you did. You know the role you played and you know how you contributed to the ending of my marriage. You know that I asked you to step back and let me handle my family issues. Issues that you helped to create.
Im not saying everything was perfect all the time but no relationship is perfect. We made a vow to God and I believe you should have respected that, as a woman. I know you owe me or my son nothing but I just wish you would’ve handled things more carefully. I’m not judging you, I put you and the whole situation in the hands of God, the Higher Power. Just know that as a woman, I expected so much more from you. I never had intentions on reaching out to you this way but after reading your twits tonight, and the constant disregard, you left me no choice. I feel that after 1 and a half years of you hiding this affair and acting like it doesnt exist, that now is the time to confront it, since you talk so openly about it now

This is not a publicity stunt, I dont have a record coming out. I just need to close this chapter in my life and that means confronting our issues. There is a small child involved. His dad loves him to death and he wants to spend more time with him but hes afraid because he knows we don’t have a relationship. This is my main concern. My son NEEDS his dad and I NEED to be comfortable with you. For him!

I know many will see my point and many will not be able to look into what’s real because they only want to see Alicia Keys the celebrity, not the human. This is not for the “people”, this is for you. Like I said I was left no choice but to reach out to you this way. By now, Im sure you want to find a balance in this as well.

I read your tweets tonight and I felt they were very insensitive. You have no idea how much pain I was caused because of this affair. Its baffling to me that you don’t understand what I might have gone through with this situation. I dont consider myself a victim anymore, Ive learned alot from this! I just ask you to try and be a bit more realistic and delicate to the situation, at least until my divorce is final. I felt me attending the party would have been a starting point for us, since you shook my hand after I offered it, but I suppose I was wrong.

If its so, that you and my husband are meant to be together, then God bless you both and I hope you never have to deal with what I did. I would not wish it on my worst enemy. If you two being together forever is the case, its more of a reason for us to get along, because I’m not going anywhere. Theres a child to be raised.

To answer your tweet, choose smart over spark. Sparks burn everyone, be smart! Its simple actually, just think of the shoe being on the other foot.

Stay blessed and lets work this thing out with respect and dignity."

Sidebar: I personally don’t agree with anyone sleeping with a married person. I despise cheaters and for the reason you have lost a fan here Alicia. We as fans pay are the ones who put money in the Artist pockets. I cannot not buy an Alicia Keys album knowing she throws lavish parties for a married man..

Candy Store: Nicki Minaj


"Nicki Minaj is known for her slow wine. She’s mastered it. A perfect ménage — languid, sex-soaked, and hypnotic. But we’re talking delivery, not dancehall, folks. The Queens native spits a sweet sixteen. Her lyrics — fun and flirty, and a foot past suggestive — may rival her male counterparts’ but it’s that sex-kitten purr that allows her to grind in her own lane."

Young Love My Ass

I hate hearing people under eighteen saying they're in love, because in all honesty, you're too young to know what love is. I'm nineteen years old and it isn't until my current relationship that I realize the times before when I thought I was in love I really wasn't, just merely high infatuation.


I know some might get upset at the statement "you're to young to know what love is" but when your young you still developing and learning a lot, your understanding of love is also developing. You go through the emotions, hurt, arguments, joys and etc to build your knowledge of love, but just because someone comes into you life and introduces a feeling/connection to you that seems like love doesn't mean it is love.


Sometimes people come in your life for a season to teach you one thing, do not give seasonal people lifetime expectations.

Jay-Z On David Letterman



Jay-Z stopped by The David Letterman Show to promote his new album. He also talks about the where his name comes from and his marriage to Beyonce. This guy is a clown i swear lol, but his laughing is annoying

Kanye Does Jay Leno

Kanye seemed very sincere and remorseful while speaking to Leno about the tantrum that took place during the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards. When Leno mentioned Kanye’s mother I thought he was going to shead a couple of tears, I almost shed a tear too. To bad "America" will continue to see fault in Kanye.

Fashion Manifesto

Are you into fashion and beauty? Then I defiantly recommend you head to Tara's site Fashion Manifesto! I came across this site via twitter and seriously read every article; I barely and very rarely ever do that. Her site has all the juicy new trends, "who wore it better", sexiest name brands, look for less, beauty and makeup tips, the most interesting style details and much more! Along with all the interesting details and eye catching images she really takes her time to give her opinion on the each post, breaks down celeb wardrobes, and her recommendations on certain matters are on point. I can honestly say her words is what intrigues me the most. I also recommend following her on her twitter twitter.com/ForefrontOfFab because there isn't a boring moments with her, I find myself RTing alot of her tweets. Below are a few posts she's made that caught my attention. Click the Title to head to the post. Enjoy

They Say "Love Don't Come Easy"

One thing I know for sure is that EVERY relationship has problems, whether minor or major, we all have them. I also know that a lot of times when your the person on the outside are looking in on someone's relationship you can see all the flaws of what's around them and some might advise that you two should part ways and see other people, but alot of times couples respond "I love him/her." Whenever I hear this response I don't really argue with anyone because love, as William Shakespeare once said, is intangible, it is a madness that only the person in love can feel; and it's totally understandable, because love alters everything about how you act, think and function. A friend may see your love one as someone who's not for you and try to point out why, but to every negative they have, you have a a ton load of positives on why they're compatible for you.

I want to point this out though, because alot of people who respond "I love blah blah" dont realize that becasue they have a problem doesnt mean feelings have changed. I think alot of people need to stop and say to themselve "yes we have a problem, but that and our love are too different things that don't interfere. This situation has nothing to do with how much I love you." People run into problems and question their significant others love, or maybe they hurt you and you start questioning why are you two are together. Well wake up call! In order to love someone you have to be willing to get hurt, if you're not willing then it wont last long.

Love is a indescribably thing, and varies vastly, but joy and hurt go hand in hand with love. Let's face it, there WILL be times we let our love ones down, not once, not twice, but multiply times (sorry to say) but if you truly love someone as much as you claim and preach to that person and others, then a lot of problems, big or small, you will find yourself climbing over.

If you have problems that you cant conquer, that you cant work out then thats another post for another time, this post here is for people in relationships who have gone through fire hoops, fought bears, and sailed their ships in a storm successfully. For couples who will stand the test of time for those they love. For couples that truly know how to work problems out, overlook situations, and are open. For couples that change each other not by force but with compassion. For couples who at the end of the day regret nothing, and wouldn't change a thing; they're the ones who truly know what love is.

Chris Brown’s Interview With Larry King



If you tuned into the radio, watched television, or read the blogs today you have heard some form of crisitim due to Chris Brown saying he doesn’t remember what happened. Chris reached out to let everyone know the real deal:

"As I have said several times previously, I am ashamed of and sorry for what happened that night and I wish I could relive that moment and change things, but I can’t. I take full responsibility for my actions. What I have to do now is to prove to the world that this was an isolated incident and that is not who I am and I intend to do so by my behavior now and in the future.

That 30 seconds of the interview they used of me was taken from a one hour interview during which that same question was asked something like 4 or 5 times — and when you look at the entire interview you will see it is not representative of what I said.

The first four times – or how ever many times it was – I gave the same answer — which was that I didn’t think it was appropriate for me to talk about what happened that night. I said it was not right for me and it really wasn’t fair to Rihanna. The fifth time – or whatever it was – I just misspoke. I was asked, “Do you remember doing it?” and I said, “No.”

Of course I remember what happened. Several times during the interview, my mother said that I came to her right afterwards and told her everything. But it was and still is a blur. And yes, I still can’t believe it happened because it is not me or who I am or is what happened like anything I have ever done before." -Chris Brown



Here is a preview of the interview Chris Brown recently did with CNN’s Larry King. This is going to be a real interesting interview. You know Larry King don’t play when it comes to those questions. The interview comes on Wednesday, September 2nd at 9pm on CNN.
