Alicia Keys Speaks Out On Being Labeled A Homewrecker


Alicia Keys rocks her short curls for the November 26th issue of JET magazine. Inside, she talks about being labeled a homewrecker after rumors of an alleged affair with husband, Swizz Beatz, during his marriage to then wife, Mashonda. The girl on fire singer has already denied engaging in a relationship with Swizz during his first marriage, but decided to touch on the subject again…

[They] were apart for some time before we ever got together. That doesn’t matter to those who take pleasure in trying to knock others down, there’s no need to fight what’s not true.


On her powerful relationship with Swizz Beatz:

I’d never met a person where I could be fully myself. Swizz and I live in each other’s shadow. So we can occupy the same space and there is nothing but equality. There’s something really powerful about that.

Ugh well luckily most of my flack was along the lines of OMG YOU HAVE NO EMOTIONS HDU ENJOY SOMETHING LESS THAN LIKE TWO YEARS AFTER A BREAK-UP instead of calling me a whore, but yeah, it's so fucking ridiculous. Just people all distraught that you aren't basically clutching your ovaries and contemplating the ways you could have better satisfied your man.

IF YOU CAN BELIEVE IT, the ex didn't experience basically any of that. We talk now (hell it's been 4 years since we broke up - still with the same "rebound" dude) and he's just like "yeah everyone said they felt bad but then they all bought me drinks lol" Surpriiiiise.

Just the worse, isn't it? I'm glad to hear you two are still together. I wish people would either mind their own business or stop expecting women to fall apart when the relationship does. I mean, guys get to move on for a number of reasons at any old pace.

It's times like this that I try not to hate on society and the BS expectations they place on ladies.
