Alicia Keys and Swizz Beatz Engaged?

By Sam Brand Posted Jan 27th 2010 08:06PM

Alicia Keys is off the market. She's been off the market for at least a year, but now the star is REALLY off the market. UsMagazine.com is reporting Alicia got engaged to producer/rapper Swizz Beatz over the weekend. The site's got a ring pic to prove it. No word from R&B singer Mashonda, the influential producer's outspoken ex. Still, we think "No One" can get in the way of how Alicia feels about her man...

The proposal reportedly occurred in Hawaii on Jan. 24, a day before Keys' 29^th birthday. She was snapped by paparazzi flashing a 7-carat diamond while strolling the beach with her man.

A friend of the couple tells Us, "She is thrilled. She is with the man who has inspired so much of her music and her new album [The Element of Freedom]."

No word on how Us knows the rock is 7-carats. Must be their crack team of forensic photo experts.

Swizz Beatz admitted to the romance with Keys last May, after hinting at it in a remix for Drake's "Best I Ever Had."

"Wake up in the morning and my baby cooked me breakfast, A's naked wearing nothing but a necklace," Beatz, real name Joseph Dean, raps on the re-imagined hit.

"What we have is so precious," he told the Daily News.

The romance must be more precious to the producer than his previous marriage to singer Mashonda, with whom Beatz has a young child. The two have been finalizing their split since February when the divorce was initially filed.

In an open letter published last September, Mashonda wrote, "If you are reading this Alicia, let me start by saying, you know what you did." She continues, "You know how you contributed to the ending of my marriage... If it's so, that you and my husband are meant to be together, then God bless you both and I hope you never have to deal with what I did."

By sweety5

If Alicia did this, then she is nothing but a wh*re and so is that ugly thing she calls a man. Cheap, trashy losers.

By valeskas

I do not care, these people have no morals anymore.

By bigvet

Why, him already married once and have a young child. is that a strong sister or just pretending. she can find a strong brother with a
good career and no kids. Do, she want to start right with her own family meaning kids and first marriage with a man that never been married, so it glow for them both.

It's a true saying you get what your hands call for. He just got out a marriage in looking to get in another one. He nevered took time for hisself to think what went wrong with his first one. she not thinking niether that it will be problems for them. In when the problems start to happen the public will know.

Engaged? If they be anything, they be 'N-gajed. No word from Mashonda yet, though. Maybe Lakeesha know.

By Gail E. Cooper

My heart goes out to Mashonda and her child. May GOD bless her with a much better husband than the one she's divorcing. Life goes on and she'll get over it. There's no point in crying over someone who's in love with someone else. It's a losing battle. Time will tell just how much Swizz Beatz really loves Alicia Keys. More than likely, history will simply repeat itself.
