Alicia Keys joined the likes of Beyonce and Christina Aguilera in giving musical tribute to the late great Kobe Bryant and his daughter Gianna at their Los Angeles memorial today.
The star’s involvement was notable two-fold.
First, because she was tasked with holding the GRAMMYs together as host just moments after news of Bryant’s tragic death broke at the Staples Center – the very arena today’s event took place. And where Bryant played as an LA Laker for the lion-share of his career.
But also because of the very personal connection the song she played – Beethoven‘s ‘Moonlight Sonata’ – had to the family.
During a eulogy by his best friend given earlier at the event, it was revealed that the NBA legend learnt the famed piece for his wife Vanessa Bryant, who he was missing so dearly at the time.
Watch Keys’ heart-wrenching, yet stunning showing below…
Wish she would have sang Like You’ll Never See me Again, but I also have to realize, like many other people that this was a memorial, not a damn concert.
She did what needed to be done and it was beautiful. 🙂
I was so afraid she would sing and mess up like she did at Whitney funeral
Even tho Alicia Christina and Bey are all senior citizens now (and about tge exact same age) it’s clear that Bey is aging the best especially in terms of LOOKS VOICE and RELEVANCE.
You a damn lie. Beyonce looks at least 10 years older than both Alicia and Christina, her voice is still basic in comparison to Xtina, and her relevance is on the same level as Alicia since they both flopped their last few releases, with The Gift being the biggest flop out of them all.
Even Lizzo outsold beyonce right now so sit you asszzxz down
The Gift was a GOSPEL album, it doesn’t count. Lemonade sold 3 times more than Anti in the US. Ans WHO is Lizzo???
Gurl it does count. Beyoncé suffered a great decline in sales. Last solo #1 she had was 2008 with Single Ladies.
Anti sold more than Everything is laugh, lionking: the gifts and Home cooking combined
Lizzo is hot right now!
She represent you
You heard about “Juice, Good As Hell and Truth Hurts. Those are iconic and top charting songs.
Even Xtina is praising her. Even the handsome harry Styles cover Juice???
