Alicia Keys and Swizz Beatz got married yesterday! There was no yacht or over-the-top festivities – just family and close friends as Alicia Keys and Swizz Beatz tied the knot in a private ceremony Saturday in a private home on the Mediterranean Sea.
Alicia announced that she was engaged and pregnant in May. She then went to South Africa with Swizz and had her unborn baby blessed in a traditional ceremony last month.

Alicia's friend says, "She is thrilled. She is with the man who has inspired so much of her music and her new album [The Element of Freedom]." Last fall, the rapper (real name: Kasseem Dean) -- who has three children from previous relationships -- gushed about their relationship. "What we have is so precious," he told the New York Daily News.
Yes, I've called Alicia a homewrecker, but I'm not wishing her ill will or saying that I won't listen to her music anymore. I wanted to write a 2 cents post on Alicia and Swizz cause she does not deserve all the backlash she's receiving from her disgruntled fans simply because she became involved with a man who was still legally married. It's her life, let her make her own decisions and be happy. Why are her "fans" predicting and hoping that her relationship will fail?!!
If her half-a*sed fans want to ditch her music because they think she's a hypocrite, let them leave! Alicia puts on a hell of a show, she's extremely intelligent, a philanthropist, and you can't choose who you love. Just because someone's relationships or marriages didn't work out in the past does not mean that his or her current and future relationships and marriages will go boom. It's like, 'Um, hello, hasn't everyone who is married had relationships prior to their current marriage?!' If a relationship is over but two people are still legally together, everyone involved should be able to do whatever he or she wants to. We are talking about grown adults here.
Just cause Swizz was married does not mean that his relationship with Alicia isn't going to work. Alicia had her baby blessed last month and I hope that her marriage will be blessed as well. Haters keep hating.
UPDATE: Alicia got married on July 31st.
