Music legend and goddess Alicia Keys is opening up about an uncomfortable experience she encountered with a photographer at the beginning of her career.
The 39-year-old has been in the music industry since she was 15, and has a lot of stories to share with her fans.
After an unidentified photographer had convinced Alicia's management team to let the do the shoot one-on-one, he proceeded to pressure her to pose proactively.
“My spirit is screaming that something is wrong, that this feels sleazy,” Alicia recalled.
When the magazine was published, Alicia recalls feeling “embarrassed” and “ashamed,” and says the experience taught her to never allow anybody to "rob me of my power."
"It’s about feeling manipulated. It’s about being objectified."
What an important story to share for all young women. We love you, Alicia!
