Alicia Keys, 27, has managed to stay away from all the show biz’s scandals. She works very hard for every one of her albums and singles and she also plays in movies. She now stars in “The Secret Life of Bees” which will open on Friday. The movie is about three beekeeping sisters who take in a girl.

The movie is about the strength of the family and the singer said during an interview that she wants a family as soon as possible, but she hadn’t found a man whom she can trust in or a man who can also inspire her. “As I'm getting older, I also realize the type of dedication that you have to have to be in a relationship. So in order to make something like a relationship work, you have to make it important,” Alicia Keys stated.

She added that she wants a relationship which can become as important as music for her. Alicia Keys also added that she hates showing a false image of herself because “in an instant everything can change.” The 27-year-old singer has a new plan about collaborating with Jack White of the White Stripes for the new OST of “Quantum of Solace,” the new James Bond film.

She had her debut album “Songs in A Mirror” in 2002. The album was a total success which brought her five Grammy Awards in the same year and sold more than 11 million copies all around the world. “The Diary of Alicia Keys,” her second album, was released in 2003 and sold nearly 9 million copies. Her latest album, “As I Am,” from 2007, established her as one of the best-selling artists of the decade.
