Alicia Keys Relaxes In Paradise!

Kanye West

Let’s be real, we watch everything this man does like hawks! He’s one of the most intriguing artists of our time. Getting to watch Kanye have Twitter rants, talk about his own genius and put together albums and clothing lines on a weekly basis is top notch entertainment!

Lil’ Wayne’s Baby’s Mommas

Most of the reality shows that call the cast members “wives” are forgetting one very important thing–most of them aren’t even married. So here’s a show idea–Real Baby Mommas of Weezy. You know you’d be glued to the screen, especially to see more of how they get along, how Wayne interacts with his kids and why the world these women are in a Lil’ Wayne cult.

Alicia Keys and Swizz Beatz

Celebrity couples like Alicia and Swizz are obsession-worthy. Watching these two lovebirds live their extravagant lives, love one another and raise their son would be one of those rare positive reality shows and definitely something we could use as viewers.

Ciara

Ciara’s career is constantly under criticism. Having her life spilled out on screen for us to see her rise to the top would be endearing and may even gain her the respect she deserves.

Solange

Some people have the ability to capture our attention in any and every little thing that they do. Solange is one of those people. From her jet-setting adventures to her eclectic style and her ever-blossoming career, Solange’s non-stop reality show would be a certified hit.

Who would you love to see living their lives out in front of the camera?

Rihanna To Launch Reality TV Fashion Show

Maybe I’ve been living under a rock, but I had no clue Swizz Beatz was a man of many jobs and talents. Swizz is a modern-day Renaissance man, opening himself up to more than just music and allowing his passions to run deep in everything from fashion to art.

As I began to research the multi-hyphenate mogul, I became increasingly impressed with his accomplishments. He’s the definition of ambitious and even though SOPA’s trying to bring down one of his latest ventures, Swizz will be just fine without this CEO title. So, take that SOPA. Check out the 9 different impressive jobs that Swizz is able to juggle and still wear the hats of husband and father.

1. DJ: This is how Mr. Dean got his start in music. He scored some deejaying equipment from his stepfather and uncles.

2. Producer: Swizz’s uncles Chivon, Dee and Waah Dean were CEO’s of the Ruff Ryder label and noticed his musical talents and allowed him to produce for their breakout star DMX. At 16, Swizz created the “Ruff Ryder’s Anthem.”

3. Recording Artist: Swizz was signed as a recording artist to Universal/Motown records. He is now signed to Everest Entertainment/Atlantic/Warner. He’s released a compilation album – Swizz Beatz Presents G.H.E.T.T.O. Stories - in 2002 and One Man Band Man in 2007. Haute Living is coming this year.

4. CEO: By 23, Swizz started his own label–Full Surface–with music mogul Clive Davis. He’s also the CEO of Megaupload.

5. Fashion Designer: As if the music was not enough to feed his creativity, Swizz accepted a partnership and brand ambassador to KidRobot, a retailer for limited edition toys, art and clothing.

6. Shoe Designer: The fashion bug bit Swizz and hasn’t let up. He lent his fashion forward expertise to Reebok to create a new line of sneakers.

7. Professor: Swizz taught a music industry course for a year at NYU’s Clive Davis Department of Recorded Music. He even held one-on-one sessions and had office hours.

8. Vice President: Swizz is the VP of Creative Design and Global Marketing for luxury carmaker Lotus. He collaborated with Lotus CEO Dany Bahar to create the look for the sparkling chrome-painted Lotus Evora GTE.

9. Painter: As an art enthusiast, Swizz collects works of legendary artists like Basquiat, Ernie Barnes and Keith Haring. He’s also an artist in his own right and paints in whatever free time he can find. He sells his masterpieces and donates the proceeds to the Children’s Cancer and Blood Foundation.

Is Alicia Keys Pregnant?

Stars dressed the best for the big night. Both Lala and Serena Williams wore black; Lala in a form-fitting dress with jeweled headdress (a la BFF Kim Kardashian’s wedding look) and Serena in a belted gown with a high-neckline, hardware and cutouts.

Supermodels Tyra and Chanel Iman also walked the carpet; Tyra giving her best “smize” in a rich purple dress with a bow detail and Chanel in a flowy frock with a plunging neckline that almost showed off her goods.

The hosts husband Swizz Beatz looked dapper in an all-black suit, while his wifey and Kerry Washington both wore white; Alicia in a blazer with a gold shirt and Kerry in a striped and sheer number that gave us a peek at her bod underneath.

Who looked best?

With her new show, Reed Between the Lines and Lifetime’s original movie, Five; Tracee’s definitely lighting up the screen.

1. Star Studded Lineage

Born with a silver spoon in her mouth, thanks to her diva of a mother, Diana Ross. Like mother, like daughter, Tracee can’t help but shine.

2. Fashion Phenom

Tracee is a former model and contributing fashion editor for the now folded Mirabella magazine. Her knowledge of fashion is clear. Tracee has no stylist and is always impeccably dressed.

3. Funny Girl

Tracee broke into comedy on MTV’s Lyricist Lounge Show and managed to breathe some of that same comedic life into her character, Joan in Girlfriends.

4. The New Claire

Tracee’s newest character, Dr. Carla Reed reminds me of a newer Claire Huxtable. She’s sexy, career-driven, a devoted mother and loving wife–all the beautiful qualities that Mrs. Huxtable effortlessly exhibited.

5. Meaningful Work

Recently appearing in Lifetime’s Five, Tracee played a breast cancer diagnosed Rosario Dawson’s soccer mom sister. The segment was directed by Alicia Keys and brought life to the importance of the fight against breast cancer.

Fast-forward to the present and Mateo’s latest song is “Say It So” featuring Alicia Keys and Swizz Beatz the lead single from his up-coming EP “Love and Stadiums Pt. II.”  A music video has been shot for this song and I personally cannot wait for its premiere, as this song is an infectious favorite of mine. See the crooner speak for himself in our exclusive interview below. Don’t worry beauties, we got him to dish on meeting Alicia Keys too.

Check out our interview below.

Alicia Keys Reveals Details About Her Broadway Play “Stick Fly” [VIDEO]

Goapele Talks Motherhood and Making “Break Of Dawn” [Exclusive]

The play “follows the LeVays, an affluent African American family who come together to spend a summer weekend at their Martha’s Vineyard home. The adult sons, aspiring novelist Kent and golden boy plastic surgeon Flip, have each brought their respective ladies (one Black and one White) to meet the parents. Food, drink and Trivial Pursuit tangle with class, race and identity politics in this contemporary comedy of manners.”

Alicia says:

“It’s about the human experience, so it doesn’t matter how you look, where you’re from, where you grew up, life is hilarious, life is serious, life is outrageous. And that’s what this play is. I think it’s something that people will really resonate with. Can’t wait for you to see it, it’s gonna blow your mind, you’re gonna be all about it.”

Will you be seeing it?

Alicia Covers Glamour & Reveals Moment She Fell In Love [PHOTOS]

Jahna, who also goes by Zhanna Andrianova, is a singer and the two shared a “relationship” before (maybe during?) his relationship with Alicia Keys (and maybe Mashonda…who knows?!)

Accoring to the NY Post, “Lawyers for Andrianova say Beatz agreed to pay her $42,000 legal fees as part of the settlement, signed by him in July and her in August, and a judge at Manhattan Family Court granted them a money judgment Thursday to pursue payment, which could have resulted in his assets being seized or bank accounts frozen. Following this, a check for full payment was sent by Beatz to her lawyer, divorce attorney Raoul Felder on Friday.”

Beatz has an 11-year-old son Nasir with Nicole Levy, a 4-year-old son Kasseem Jr. with Mashonda, the aformentioned 3-year-old daughter Nicole with Jahna, and soon-to-be year-old son Egypt with Alicia Keys.

He’s a keeper, ain’t he?
