Photos: Alicia Keys Looks Flawless As She Goes Make-Up Free To The 2016 VMAs
Alicia Keys and her husband, Swizz Beatz walked the ‘white’ carpet together at the 2016 MTV Video Music awards on Sunday night and she stole the show with her make-up free face.
On an occasion when most celebrities call on the expertise of the world’s most talented makeup artists, the 35-year-old star and pretty mum of two was unique, walking the VMA white carpet in a red and black Just Cavalli long sleeved printed maxi dress and a Jennifer Fisher gothic initial necklace.
Mirror reports that Alicia previously revealed that it was a chance encounter with a photographer who wanted to take her picture without any make-up that gave her an epiphany and she hasn’t worn make-up since.
“I hope to God it’s a revolution,” she said. “Cause I don’t want to cover up anymore. Not my face, not my mind, not my soul, not my thoughts, not my dreams, not my struggles, not my emotional growth. Nothing.”
“Every time I left the house, I would be worried if I didn’t put on makeup: What if someone wanted a picture??” she added.
“What if they POSTED it??? These were the insecure, superficial, but honest thoughts I was thinking. And all of it, one way or another, was based too much on what other people thought of me.”
