Alicia Keys Tells 'Elle UK' Whoever Isn't A Feminist, Is Crazy!

Alicia Keys lets her hair run wild and opens up about her feminist stance, her family and going make-up free in Elle UK magazine’s special December Feminism issue, hitting newsstands on November 15!

Here’s what the 35-year-old Grammy-award-winning singer had to share with the mag:

On feminism: “Let’s look the definition up because I have in my mind what I feel it means. ‘The advocacy of women’s rights on the ground of political, social and economic equality’ – so yes. Yes, I am a feminist, and whoever isn’t is crazy… It’s about owning your power, embracing your womanhood.”

On her love for her husband Swizz Beatz: “He is an electric current. There is not a soul who has met him who hasn’t fallen in love with him.”

On her blended family: “I have a very blended and interesting perspective of what family life looks like. There is no one way, no perfect way. Each way is different with beautiful scope to be something good. That is life. Our eldest son is 16 and it’s really cool to be in his life as an adult figure who is not his mum, and he gives me a prelude to what is coming with my children.”

Alicia recently dropped the official music video for her new single “Blended Family (What You Do For Love)” from her latest album HERE – Watch the visual below!
