Alicia Keys is a Diva

  1. Retarded. You haven't even earned the right to be a full blown diva cunt. People always forget where they came from. People always forget how their life was once a little more dull. You should always appreciate what you have especially when things are going very well for you. I hate people like her.

  3. I don't know.I wouldn't sing too if they forgot to pay me.she doesn't work for free

  4. I think she's talented, but never wish to hear her speak. And if I hear her new song one more time on MTV, or some shameless plug for her new song on MTV... I'm going to f-in lose it.

  5. What a stupid bitch.

    By anonymous, on November 15, 2007 10:20:47

  6. I doubt that story is true.
    She's talented and I think she comes off as anything but bitchy.

  7. Boyfriend?

    Obviously this story is fake, since she's a big time butch lesbo. Not that anything is wrong with that.

  8. Todd, you're the funniest.

    By anonymous, on November 15, 2007 10:56:52

  9. When was the last time any of you continued to show up for work when your employer missed over 1/3 of your paycheque? This story is a little bit suspicious because homegirl pays her managers to worry about those little details. I don't care if that woman was about to push out her baby that very second, the record store would have benefitted from Alicia's appearance in terms of album sales, why should she get short-changed. IF this story is true, I support her 100%.

    By anonymous, on November 15, 2007 11:00:07

  10. I don't blame her. Fuck those assholes...they're making a SHITLOAD of money because of her appearance. Pay up, bitches! If her contract stated she was going to be paid $15k, then those fuckers should have paid her $15k. What's the big deal?

    By anonymous, on November 15, 2007 11:01:09

  11. not really... making fun of her acne... something people have no control of... yeah really funny. Todd you're fat!

    By H, on November 15, 2007 11:02:30

  12. Her new song blows, its crappy pop.

    By anonymous, on November 15, 2007 11:03:22

  13. I'm in the industry and can tell you that if you don't get paid upfront, THEY'RE NEVER PAYING YOU!

    I don't blame her. She's probably gotten burnt a million times. Good for her.

    By anonymous, on November 15, 2007 11:05:59

  14. "H" has an ugly zit face.

    By god hates you too, on November 15, 2007 11:05:59

  15. YO YO YO!!!
    Whats the matter, the cracker club don't wanna pay the SISTER, they think she should be they SLAVE? Huh muthafucka? Nah..Nah!!! That's ignorant. That ain't how it works no more. Alicia Keys is a queen of the Earf, and should be paid some respect! THE MAN just can't give my brothers and sisters the benjamins they deserve!!!
    I bet if Natalie Portajohn showed up at the club, they'd be all like "Here's your money, what else can we do for you", but since it's a SISTA, they just want to chain her up and whip her!

    FREE THE JENA SIX AND FREE OJ, THEY ALL INNOCENT!!!!

    By Blingy Washington, on November 15, 2007 11:09:49

  16. can't blame her for not preforming....I'm sure that this stuff happens all the time, and most likely got screwed in the past.

    But asides from that I would say that yeah, this is one fake as b*tch. You can just so tell that she is nothing like how she tries to come off as.

    By anonymous, on November 15, 2007 11:11:53

  17. Quit hatin' on the black lesbian!

    By anonymous, on November 15, 2007 11:12:25

  18. Um, sure, you need to get paid--they offered to pay her the remainder...can you peeps read? Regardless, bitch has an album to promote...so it might be a good call to actually promote it, even if it's not always fun or a fantasy...or watch it plummet 70% like Shitney's did...

    By MMB, on November 15, 2007 11:13:30

  19. I'm with a lot of the other commeneters here--why the fuck would I make the appearance when it was clear I wasn't going to get more than a quarter of my paycheck?

    Lets say you make 100,000 a year. In August, your employer says that he's only giving you 75,000 this year--theres no more money for you. Anyone who says they would still work is a liar.

    And save the 'She's rich, its not a big deal, its only 4000 dollars' crap. Thats just jealousy.

    By Jim, on November 15, 2007 11:15:17

  20. That's no way to promote your new album Alicia! God hates divas too!

    By anonymous, on November 15, 2007 11:19:26

  21. I'm with her. I'd sit out in the car and wait for my money that they AGREED TO PAY UPFRONT for my appearance.
    It's not her problem that the pregnant woman was waiting, it's the club's who doesn't want to pay her.
    I don't care how "big" she is perceived to be, she's smart to still be looking out for her financial interests because in the end she has to pay her expenses and she can't say, "Uh, I only got 2/3 of the money for this gig, so I'm only going to pay my band, roadies, makeup and hair people, drivers, airlines and managers 2/3's of their fees". Doesn't work that way and she's the one who would ultimately be stiffed.

    By anonymous, on November 15, 2007 11:27:34

  22. "The owner of the club even offered to pay the remainder of the owed money himself, just to get her in the club."

    Ok, we all clear now?

    By anonymous, on November 15, 2007 11:29:19

  23. "Lets say you make 100,000 a year. In August, your employer says that he's only giving you 75,000 this year--theres no more money for you. Anyone who says they would still work is a liar."

    Great analogy, Ace. A regular Joe working 3 months in a regular job for 25,000 vs Ms. Fat Ass spending one night at a club for 4,000...definitely comparable.

    By J-Bird, on November 15, 2007 11:37:37

  24. Alicia's new song DOES suck - I heard it on TV yesterday. I hope the rest of the album is better or she will promptly return to her humble beginnings.

    By anonymous, on November 15, 2007 11:47:19

  25. Give me a break, to everyone who is acting like Alicia is just being smart and business-minded. She's being a greedy cow. $10,000 isn't enough to do a ONE NIGHT appearance? Please. And if, as anon 11:05:59 said, they're never going to pay you if they don't pay you up front--Alicia should have known better, then! She's no rookie to the industry. It's just tacky to go to the venue, THEN refuse to come inside, and wait in the car like a bratty child being pouty. Get over yourself, Alicia! She's lucky she even has any fans.

    By anonymous, on November 15, 2007 12:20:06

  26. For some reason, she always seems like a cunt. I can't articulate why.
    Her videos are idiotic. And I hate her lyrics about how "I don't want nothing at all if I don't have you" or the like - take it from me, love is NOT everything. You have to get the bills paid, too, and a financial deadbeat of a partner will drag you WAY down in life. Just some advice to any starry-eyed youngsters who might be among us.

    By anonymous, on November 15, 2007 13:05:12

  27. How petty of her - I've lost all respect for the gal. Her new song sucks, too.

    By Starbucks Fan, on November 15, 2007 13:18:58

  28. Also: she's fat.

    By anonymous, on November 15, 2007 13:20:07

  29. I'LL ONLY DO THE SHOW IF YOU PAY ME $4000 WORTH OF FRIED CHICKEN!!

    FRIED CHICKEN IN MY BELLY, NOW!!!!!

    By Alicia Keys, on November 15, 2007 13:39:25

  30. She should be PAYING THEM for putting up with her!

    By anonymous, on November 15, 2007 13:58:16

  31. no pay no play , bitches!!

    By anonymous, on November 15, 2007 14:06:58

  32. Fuck that overrated lesbo.

    By anonymous, on November 15, 2007 14:11:04

  33. She's a gay half breed JUST LIKE PRETTYBOY!

    By Prettyboy's mudshark mom, on November 15, 2007 14:12:00

  34. anonymous 11:00:07

    Why does it not surprise me that someone who thinks this is super-cool behavior is also someone who thinks that $4,000 is "over 1/3" of $15,000.

    Same goes to you, anonymous 11:27:34.

    By Frank Percentage, on November 15, 2007 14:40:36

  35. I aint hatin on her...she can to it how she want...ya'll fukin hatin on her, and ya'll dont work for free...so why should she, so we would all be diva's and dicks if she did the same as her...its called
    F'Q U PAY ME

    By anonymous, on November 15, 2007 14:46:13

  36. Good for her. If they promised her 15 grand then they should have paid her 15 grand. Not like those people paying her are poor or anything.
    The so-called offer to pay her would vanish into thin air the moment she set foot in that club. An offer means nothing. Do any of you know anything about business?
    4 grand is 4 grand. I don't know how rich you all are, but that's a nice little chunk of cash. Let her do charity for people who deserve it, not some fuckhole promoter who's trying to dick her around.

    By Uncle Scrooge, on November 15, 2007 15:39:27

  37. They probably gave her $11,000 up front and then promised her the rest of the fee the night of the performance. She should have been more professional about it. There's nothing classy about a "diva".

    By anonymous, on November 15, 2007 15:41:06

  38. There's really something of the mega-bitch in her.

    By THE GODDESS OF ONIONS, on November 15, 2007 16:57:00

  39. That's not being a diva, thats keeping it real. Pay the woman for her services.

    By Prettyboy, on November 15, 2007 17:21:52

  40. 4000 is probably not even what she spent on pedicures that day so don't compare it to 1/3 of your salary. It wasn't 1/3 of her salary for the whole year ...

    it's like you quitting your job because your boss didn't pay you 5 dollars for one day ... she's stupid because she makes money off people buying her shit ... and she's getting bad publicity for this .. it'll cost her a whole lot more in the end ...

    By anonymous, on November 15, 2007 18:22:39

  41. I suppose that's what you get for paying people to be celebrities.

    Doesn't say much about her or the promoters, professionally.

    By anonymous, on November 15, 2007 19:17:38

  42. If she went in without getting paid in full the all other places she performs would expect the same thing. Would you go to work only getting 3/4 of your pay ? I hardly think so.

    By anonymous, on November 15, 2007 19:34:52

  43. she sucks!!!!! Personally....she aint all that

    By anonymous, on November 15, 2007 20:59:54

  44. Fuck her. Self-centered wigger twat. Has anybody noticed she's trying to turn white like Michael Jackson ? Has anyone noticed her big fat ass? A few years ago I thought the ho had some soul - but she ain't got JACK SHIT. Grow the fuck up Alicia.

    By Blough Mee, on November 15, 2007 21:30:05

  45. I don't blame her. If she was promised one salary and then offered another that's fucked up. Although she is a famous singer, it's still a job and she has to get paid too. I would be pissed off if my boss cheated me out of a dollar so I am not mad at her.

    By anonymous, on November 15, 2007 21:32:13

  46. She wasn't going in to sing, or to act, or whatever it is she supposedly does professionally these days.

    Calling it a promotional party is just spin control. If it really was promotional, her label's PR people would have been the ones handling the appearance fee.

    No, this is just some nightclub trying to create hype by paying a celeb show up. Point and laugh at Pacha for not being able to pull off something so simple. Then point and laugh at Alicia Keyes for a) having such crap representation, b) showing up for only 15k, and c) not getting the crap sum of 15k.

    The resulting bad PR for her new album is just icing on the cake.

    By anonymous, on November 16, 2007 01:48:37

  47. Why does she label herself "black" when her mother is lily white? If she's half white doesn't that make her biracial as opposed to "black"? I'm offended when biracial people label themselves black, it's like they're saying there is something wrong with having white blood. Very racist IMO. As for her diva behavior, she needs to get over herself. Her new song totally sucks.

    By Alicia try being humble and honest , on November 16, 2007 03:58:07

  48. "Would you go to work only getting 3/4 of your pay ? I hardly think so."

    The people who keep using this analogy are retarded.

    By anonymous, on November 16, 2007 08:26:08

  49. she totally turns the "black" on and off when it's convenient for her. She speaks ebonics and tries to dumb herself down to appeal to black people. I'm sure very few blacks buy into that act--bet many are offended by her black face act.

    By anonymous, on November 16, 2007 14:24:20

  50. Anyone who has a buisness knows that she is doing what she is suppoesed to do. If your repair man wouldnt do a job becuz you didnt have the money to do it is he an ass no. the club is still getting a cut of that 25$ a head also they are getting all the money ALL the money they make off the bar sales so everyone needs to shut it. SHE IS RIGHT TO DO THIS. if she goes in there and preforms every club she goes to will try to short her.

    By DUI, on November 16, 2007 14:31:24

  51. Does anyone else NOT get it that she wasn't going there to perform, that she was just getting paid to show up?

    By anonymous, on November 16, 2007 16:38:30

  52. hmm....i guess these days, its never about the music anymore. what ever happened to the musician? the ones who wanted to just play music. why is it always about the money now? all these 'divas' are not real musicians, they are greedy and shouldnt even be considered artists. a true artist would put the music and fans first, then worry about gettin the money afterwards. we live in a greed money society. nobody cares anymore about the true art of music.

    By Munk, on November 16, 2007 22:26:04

  53. She is so fake. She went to prep school, had voice and piano lessons, from what I've read, similar to Maniston's coming up story.

    Unfortunately, for "Keys" (what a stupid awkward choice of name) the piano lessons didn't help, much past basic chord playing (which is not classical training) and her voice has no range, kinda like Bay-once (in other words, tell the dog to bay only once, because the sound is too migraine inducing to bear.)

    Isn't this one a closeted lesbian? She gives off kind of a dykey vibe, and awhile back, when she disappeared for some time, there were lots of reports that she indeed plays for the home team.

    I'm with you guys; she does not have a pleasant demeanor, has no personality, is a pain in the ass, even when she performs, and seems utterly and hopelessly and terminally STUPID.

    Oh, and she needs to stop that phony trying to act all ghetto. She was raised in the "white world," was privileged with family money, so, please, tell this prima donna to shut it. And her cd is not worth the blank disk it was written on.

    By anonymous, on November 16, 2007 23:34:40

  54. Who is this woman?

    She looks like she'd be screechy & annoying.

  55. 14:31, are you Blingy Washington? Or are you unintentionally being stupid?

    By anonymous, on November 17, 2007 05:21:41

  56. I think she is beautiful and very talented

    By anonymous, on November 17, 2007 08:15:04

  57. She should have gotten off her ass because her fans paid the $25.00 fee to see her. She could always take it up afterwards and get her $4,000 back - so I guess the money means more to her than her fans do.
    Fan made her and fans can un-make her.

    By anonymous, on November 17, 2007 09:55:03

  58. Hey now, don't hate on Blingy!

    By anonymous, on November 17, 2007 16:45:16

  59. Kayne West is a phony baloney too. He's about as "ghetto" as Al Gore. Kayne's mother was a wealthy professor. That's why Kayne is such a spoiled brat, he's used to having everything he wants and only acts Ghetto for $$$.

    By Phony ass blacks, on November 18, 2007 06:03:36

  60. This is part of her JOB people. None of us will work for free or even two-thirds of what we agreed to work for. So what that people had paid $25! The idiots who signed the contract to have her "show up" should have paid her as stated per the contract which obviously meant BEFORE she arrive not after. If anyone should be blamed for the delay of her arrival, it's the fools who tried to rip her off. You go, Alicia!

    By ash, on November 18, 2007 17:47:13

  61. "This is part of her JOB people."

    I wonder what the people at the IRS think when they see "Celebrity Appearance Douchebag" under the "Profession" category?

    Assuming they actually claim the appearance fee...

    By anonymous, on November 18, 2007 19:33:39

  62. I don't get you people. You hate HER because she refuses to work for less than the agreed sum, but apparently EVERYBODY else (promoter, club-owner, fans etc.) is entitled to EVERYTHING.

    Bitch has to pay a lot of people a lot of fees and bills. I'm also involved in the music business: if you don't get the money upfront, you'll never get it. They simply stall and 'forget' and 'check will be there the next day' etc.

    By anonymous, on November 19, 2007 04:30:33

  63. oh please. y'all know how alicia keys is. she's not the diva you'd like her to be. anyone who has met her in person will tell you how wonderful she is. and god knows she IS talented, so just stop the hating.

    By anonymous, on November 20, 2007 02:36:43

  64. whatever Shaniqua.

    By anonymous, on November 20, 2007 10:54:24

  65. she never wants to oen up to her white heritage,but brag about her blackness

  66. "oh please. y'all know how alicia keys is. she's not the diva you'd like her to be. anyone who has met her in person will tell you how wonderful she is. and god knows she IS talented, so just stop the hating."

    black people are so fucking stupid, they dont even get the whole snarky-blog game. They always come on here in posts about blacks and try to defend the star, like a fucking idiot....

    By twylight23, on November 20, 2007 11:24:46

  67. exactly no black person can do no wrong.. but whites screw up all the time..

    By jo jo boo boo, on November 20, 2007 12:05:14

  68. blacks never want to be critical of each other..they can do no wrong..but whites are always fair game..

    By jo jo boo boo, on November 20, 2007 12:41:26

  69. WOW!!!! now if this was Britshit you all would probably be praising her no good trailer trash ass! AK album is #1, she has got to be one of the most talented R&B artist (not pop, like one idiot mentioned) around. You people are truely digusting and deranged!! calm the fuck down!!!! White people chill the fuck out! Hmmm and I wonder why rasicm is still alive and strong a certain race still thinks they are the superior ones get a clue and grow up
