(Not) A Woman Scorned
Posted by Bossip Staff
Mashonda made this statement to Hip Hop Weekly regarding an alleged affair between Swiss Beatz and Alicia Keys:
[Alicia Keys] is her own woman and she has made her own choices. I don’t have a problem with her. I will say this though, I am not a scorned woman. I have a responsibility to raise [my son], he’s my number one priority and everyday I strive more for him and of course my music.”
This little factoid has been confirmed by Bossip spies. Could it be that Alicia’s squeaky-clean image may go down the drain??? Regardless, Mashonda gets supreme props for keeping it classy and drama-free.

Hmmmm…wonder if that’s really true. I hope Alicia wouldn’t hit a married man. That’s a cute baby BTW.
Mornin’ everyone!
Ohh I was first! Juke juke juke juke! Lol!
Hope the story isn’t true. I do believe she is scorned. She is making a private matter public.
How did she keep it classy by basically accusing Alicia Keys, in a magazine no less, of cheating with her husband? If she feels that way, don’t run to Hip Hop Weekly, confront Alicia AND your man.
On another note, what “music” is this chick talking about? Outside of a Swizz Beat video and a couple of her average, at best, videos, what “music” should we be looking forward to?
What you all see as class is a see an opportunist using the fact that her man dumped her ass as a chance to promote her shitty music.
Just one man’s opinion
she is always very hot, no matter here or on B la ck c e n t u ry DOTC o m. i read many news about her, also her hot pics and videos.
No way Alicia did this. Don’t get me wrong I’d leave Mashonda for Keys… but keys way too classy for this.
Really starting to believe this story…
Its been on a few sites.
None Ya, dont let LOOKS fool you!
Where’s the proof? Either she did sleep with him or she didn’t either way it won’t matter musically to me.
Still love you Alicia.
I don’t believe Alicia and Swizz went there….I just can’t agree with the implication.
getyour….
You are a FOOL with that name!!!
If Alicia did do it will anybody be surprised? No
Did she? Who knows…
Will it stop her or her music? No.
Neither one of them are the first or the last.
We live in a time where celebs (even d-listers) feel everything has to be explained or a statement has to be released.
The best statement at times is no statement - people will make up their mind no matter what you say or do.
Sh!t, if she slept with my man i wouild put her ass on blast too. If it’s true.
They all should hush about this…
If anything it’s giving Alicia more exposure and probably turning her on to a new audience.
Well did she sleep with him or are they a couple and how does Krucial feel about this?
Who really believes this nonsense? Alicia Keys and Swizz Beatz? I think Mashonda is just trying to get herself a little attention.
Honestly I agree with Brutally what “music” is she referring to??? Her clothing line is mediocre at best so I imagine her music will be as well
GOOD MORNING…HAPPY THURSDAY PEOPLE!!
Shout outs to: Ms. Underwood
CAN ANYONE SEE MY NEW GRAVIE??
Oh and lets not forget this is Hip Hop Weekly we are talking about. They still trying to push the Jay Z baby story.
ALICIA IS NO SUPERHOE SHE NEEDS DICK TOO.
WOW, I have more respect for Mashonda. She kept that real classy. If you do not have her CD, get it. January Joy is hot. I imported it from Japan. She has the chops.
BrutallyHonest - I cosign.
By making this statement, she is far from keeping it
“classy and drama-free”.
I’m Just Me…
My nicca my nerve!!! Um can’t see anything. Do you have something new up your sleeve?
Oh, but real talk…out of the d*ck why skinny ass Beatz? SWIZZY!!
I see she addressed the rumors by calling out a name but if you are going to remain classy…keep your personal matters to yourself and do what is necessary with the lawyers.
JOKE JOKEY:
Swiss beats making hits with those keys.lol…no one no one no one…Can get in the way of what I’m feeling. Let me stopping acting up on this blog.
grammar check stop
why do blogs get their info from MTO? This story isn’t real my friends. It’s a known fact that she is gay.
don’t know, I read a few months ago that Swiss and Alicia were spotted hugged up at some museum….Alicia always seems to be classy and on another level…I hope that she didn’t do this
I don’t feel this interview was classy at all. Everyone knows her and swizz was getting a divorce and that was all that should have been known. The fact that she’s outing Alicia Keysis a publicity. Did Alicia Keys cause the confusion who knows, but come on Mashonda this is your personal game. She is a veryy scorned woman and I’m sure if Swizz cheated this is not the first time so why not throw all the names out then. Everyday she strives for her son whihc is great, but of course she had to throw in “and my music” Publicity Move!
No wonder 50cent relentlessly attack her i wonder what he knew about alicia that made him sound like a complete ass like he needed any help but he opened his mouth and the flood gates of shit came running pass my face you smell the stank
i wish some artist please stop talking you are ruining your career
but back to alicia
i am not surprise when women are to quiet in a gully cut throat industry you already know there is skeletons in her closet
honesty is lacking in the music industry
honest person gives a meaningful and honest heartfelt sound that is rememberable and timeless
because nobody wants to air their skeletons everyone thinks fake is the way to go
talk about hiding your emotions and lying to your fans and saying it is your real true experience
and we the listening public(fans) lose out on what could be sensational albums
we connect to our experiences which makes listening to the beat and dancing sorrow away or lyrics or forgetting hardship and having fun
music just aint what it use to be
publicity stunts is now more important then connecting to the audience thru their music
Is Alicea doing men now?
@ usher’s the one nobody knows
I agree with you how these artists are portrayed with these clean images, but to me Alicia Keys didn’t never fit that mold. She is as fake as anyone else.
I hope it’s not true. I hold Alicia and Beyonce to a higher standard…I don’t know why..LOL. I just do. I expect positive things out of both of them:-)
@ Underwood
Morning Momma!!
Just my tat….that is all, nothing spectacular
welll….. again she has the case of the baby mam case, had she been thinking about marriage when she hooked up with ole swizzy, she would be making these comments as the wife, but i do respect her “real woman game” on how shes handles the whole situation, hell she could be on here pulling a shaniqua ney ney on us and burnt up the crip and the studio!! black love can be so depressing
hmm, so for Mashonda, him getting groupie love was okay…but, Alicia (assuming) isn’t? Outside sex is outside sex, either you accept it or don’t marry, if its always been like that.
The real question, how can a “classy” woman, like Mashonda to tie down a man that gets groupie love on the regular… I mean there must have been something…
And this might actually help Alicia gain some edge and throw off people with her gay rumors.
YA ARE GIVING A KEYS A LITTLE TOO MUCH CREDIT. I SAID ONCE AND I WILL SAY IT AGAIN, NOBODY IN THIS WORLD IS PERFECT NOT EVEN CELEBRITY’S, IT MAY BE TRUE, IT MAY NOT BE TRUE, BUT I DON’T PUT NOTHING PASS ANYBODY….IT BE THOSE QUIET ONE’S 2
I can believe this trick playing this innocent role while she is screwing that man’s husband……LOL But what goes around comes back around believe dat…..
Isn’t allhiphop.com the same site that had Blu Cantrell on it saying that Beyonce took JayZ from her? Sounds like all publicity. All this messing around is nothing new. This always happens in the industry. Dianna Ross was screwing Barry Gordy while he was taken, Tina Turner messin with Ike, and the list can go on. Don’t worry Mashonda your album still won’t sell. I sense a female version of Confessions getting ready to be marketed.
Big Sis…
I’m Just Me…
GOOD MORNING!
@ l architect
YOU ARE SOOOO RIGHT, AND WHAT CAREER, I WOULDNT HAVE MENTIONED “MY CAREER” AND ALICIA KEYS IN THE SAME SENTENCE, CAUSE RIGHT NOW SHE HAS THE MUSIC THANG LOCKED, BEYOUNCE BETTER WATCH OUT, AND I DONT KNOW WHAT MASHONDA COULD POSSIBLY COME OUT WITH, THAT I WOULD WANT TO HEAR, AND WHY WORK ON YOUR MUSIC AFTER YOU CAUGHT HIM CHEATING, SHE AINT HAD A SONG OUT IN 4-5 YEARS… UGGHHH!
Keeping it classy and drama free? If the blogs I’ve read are telling the truth, which is NEVER a given, Mashonda is the one who put it out there that Alicia was sleeping with her husband. That sounds like Jerry Springer drama to me.
WHAT UP LAUREN, GO LOOK FROM YESTERDAY BOSSIP IS ASKING FOR WRITERS THANKS TO YOUR LITTLE COMMENT…. AND YES I SUBMITTED MY RESUME, THANKS FOR THE SHOUT OUT, I WANNA THANK GOD, MY MAMMA, MY COUSIN, AND MY AGENTS AND ……………
Mashonda is an artist??
allhiphop and mto always create lies and other blogs follow their leads. No matter how untrue this rumor is, Alicia Keys the home wrecker is a ton better then Alicia Keys the lesbian. This is a classic case of bad publicity being good publicity.
@ Shay…LOL!! Thats whats up boo!
@ BIRD
THEY ARENT MARRIED, YOU KNOW THAT COMMON LAW SHIT BARELY FLIES ANYMORE
yeh Lauren she did some hooks on songs and I think she had her own song out, but her album flopped big time.
Honestly, who is Mashonda anyways?!?!
Now I don’t know how it could be classy or her taking the higher road when she
choose to mention another very FAMOUS female artist as the reason to
her martial whoas! This seems like an alternative to get more time in the limelight
for an artist who remains unknown. Talking about Alicia having an affair with your ex-husband
is more then enough to get the paparrazzi, blog sites, magazines
all keeping your name busy and free promotion!
SMDH @ this stunt, next time Mashonda get implants (butt, lips, breast) if
you want the attention!
@ LAUREN YEAH SHE HAD THAT CUT WITH CASSIDY A FEW YEARS BACK “IT DONT GET NO BETTER AND SHE MADE ONE OF MY FAVORITE SONDS ON SWIZZ BEATS ALBUM CALLED “GHETTO LOVE” WITH LL COOL J SHE HAS TERRIBLE VOCSLS ON THERE BUT I LOVE THE BEAT ND THE MESSAGE OF THE SONG. OTHER THAN THAT SHES NOT MUCH OF AN ARTIST… HELL SHE DOESNT HOLD A MATCH TO ALICIA KEYS
As much as I love Alicia Keys, it would really hurt me if this were true…I would lose ALOT of respect for her as a person..I have NO love for women who sleep with married men…or the men for that matter.
first of all, mashonda aint all clean herself . before she landed swiss beats, she was well known as an industry goupie. swiss cheated on her she cheated on swiss she was no angel. maybe now she was finally fed up but she needs to stop. she has waaaay more dirt in her closet then alicia probably do so if i was her i wouldnt be talking too much and take that alimony and CS and sit down somewhere
In fact her album wasn’t even sold in the U.S. because her songs got no radio play.
ALICIA KEYS THE LESBO IS WITH A MAN NOW. LMAO THESE PUBLICITY STORIES ISN’T GOING TO THROW ME OFF A SECOND. NOT BY A FULL MILE. TAKE MY WORD ON IT SHE IS AS GAY AS NIGHT IS TO DAY. LOL AT YOU PEOPLE BELIEVING THESE STORIES. LMAO
wHY DOES EVERY ONE KEEPS SAYIN MARRIAGE OR ALIMONY, I DONT REMEBER THESE TWO GETTING MARRIED
They are married!!! He also has a son who was born shortly AFTER they were married that paternity tests proved was his, by another woman. So I think Mashonda needs to look at all the things she let fly early on in the relationship and see that she allowed too much nonsense to go unchecked from the start. She should just shut up and see him in court.
I don’t believe this story for a second. 1st of all Alicia is too good for an ugly dude like Swizz. Just don’t believe it. This sht has got to be false. Not to say Swizz probably didn’t cheat on Moshanda…I’m sure he did. Just not w/ Alicia Keys.
If this is true….
I’m not mad @ Alicia…look if Mashonda wasn’t doing the damn thang then why would Swiss have to sleep around?? You gotta take care of your man so that nobody else will!
sj,
I agree with you. She should keep her mouth shut before she opens the doors to all of her business being put out there about the type of woman she is and how she’s a cheater as well. Either way cheating is no good, one is not worse than the other and like I said out of the numerous women he cheated with you wanna make a public notice about Alicia Keys and promote your music. I really hope Alicia didn’t do it cause I love her music but I don’t like homewreckers.
And Alicia is not an effin lesbian people…seriously
WELL LET ME PULL UP SOME INFO BECAUSE IM VERY INTO MEDIA COVERAGE, SO I EILL FIND THE PROOF… BE BACK IN A FEW……
Wait I thought Alicia was getting ready to marry that guy ….Krucial Keys….
@ THE ORIGINAL PIMP DADDY
ALICIA IS NO SUPERHOE SHE NEEDS DICK TOO.
I agree,
She may be a star and portrayed to be classy and reserved, but she is human and she is a woman with needs.
Ain’t nothing like some sneaky “if we get caught” kinda sex.
OK THEY HAVE BEEN MARRIED FOR 4 YEARS I JUST TRACKED DOWN PICTURES OF THE BABYSHOWER THEY WERE MARRIED 1 YR BEFORE SHE GOT PREGGO… WOW I MISSED THAT ONE, BUT WHAT DO YOU EXPECT THEY ARE C AND D LIST CELEBS… SORRY FOLKS
@ biracial bombshell
It’s a fact to me that AK is a LESBO, and spare me the bogus she’s with her partner routine for years. Alicia is a full out lesbian and has been for years. LMAO at you people
no way is it swizz’s fault he got talent on both sides of him?… swear ma bear Moshanda has a good voice. swear keys does to. Moshanda keep on keepn ya head up
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh classy, drama-free & not scorned? hell no!.. if she was any of the three we would not be hearing this statement..get the fuck out of here..idk if i believe Alicia is/was messing with Swizz.. however i know Swizz does get around-i’ve seen him at the local Stop N Shop and he damn sure wasn’t with Mashonda..
@ j-bizzle
exactly. stars tell us all the time that their image on stage is not who they really are as people. alicia keys is still a woman at the end of the day. this story can very well be true.
all you women on here now if it was you and u found a chick fu** your man you can give a dam less about that bitch and if you Blast that hoe than oh well I know we ALL be here before and it does hurt so i don’t blame her at all. Blast the hoe if it’s true fuck being classy….
I JUST DONT THINK THEIR ISSUES CAME FROM ALICIA, THEY WERENT THE ALL AMERICAN COUPLE TO BEGIN WITH
hm. so alicia is a slut too. is there ANY female entertainer in the business that’s not a slut?
this story is completely false. alicia is a LESBO. unless she had the affair with mashonda, who never actually said alicia had the affair with swizz, everybody’s just assuming. read her quote again. when she said she’s not a ’scorned woman’, she could easily be referring to a relationship that ended between herself and alicia LMAO.
BEFORE YOU START judging Mashonda and Swizz, you guys need to come to term with the fact that this story came from mediatakeout. Placing blame on people base on an extremely unreliable site is wrong.
dayg715…
The plot thickins’….
I reckon its true!
I don’t know who Mashonda is, but for her to name Alicia leads me to believe that she has proof! there is no smoke without fire and a woman’s instincts are usually on point when it comes to philandering!
Plus its only the stans who put the likes of Alicia and Beyaki on pedestals- they are only human and we are all falliable!
@dayg715
YOU ARE SO RIGHT. IT PUZZLES ME TO THINK PEOPLE THINK AK ISN’T GAY.
@anonymous
is there ANY male entertainer in the business not a slut also?
No woman can steal or take your man. If your man went with another womand it’s because HE WANTED TO! Women, stop blaming the other woman for ‘taking’ your man.
PEOPLE KILL ME THINKING THEY KNOW ALICIA THROUGH HER IMAGE. So she is has a squeaky clean image. That is what PR people are paid for. She happens to be up under the same man (CLIVE DAVIS) who had us thinking Whitney was an angle. Don’t get me wrong, I love Alicia & quite honestly I’ve always had a girl crush on her. I am not naive enough to think that she is perfect & would never have an affair with a married man.
Hell, in my own personal life, I have a friend that I have known since 1993. She use to always preach that man sharing was the lowest thing a woman could KNOWINGLY do. In 2007, I found out her man of 5yrs was married. I was shocked.
MTO inserted Alicia name in that statement.(buying if Mashonda even gave an interview) but they put Alicia name in that sentence themselves. This rumor was put out in April so they knew people would eat it. I just don’t like how people are judging Alicia, Mashonda, and Swizz on something base on lies.
isn’t this the same broad that jim jones said he ran through while she and swiss were together…if your going to air the dirty laundry…put it all out not just what he did…and for her to name names tells me that she is scorned…because this dude has been screwing mad groupies while they were together…had a baby with another woman…yet all she does is mention alicia…sounds like she is trying to drum up some sympathy so she can sell a few cds….
ALICIA ain’t no damn LESBO, she may lick a little Puss* Katt on the side, but what female have she been linked to?
She like D*CK and All Females that like D*CK like more D*CK….She probably liked the fact that SWISS was married and he wouldn’t take the chance of losing what he had by talking.
@ J-Bizzle
what men has she been linked with? She is a lesbian and nothing can change that. Not these stories of her marrying and breaking up marriages. She’s a down low lesbian trust me on that.
@ Penthouse, Alicia Keys has been “linked” with long time boyfriend and manager, Krucial Keys….Ever heard of that one…?
IT’S IN A MAN’S NATURE TO CHEAT.THEY ARE NATURAL HUNTERS.THE ONLY THING THAT SHOULD CONCERN ANY WOMAN IS HOW HE TREATS HER AND THE WAY HE CHEATS. IF THE MAN REALLY LOVES YOU,YOU WOULD NEVER FIND OUT.IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE WAY THE WIFE TREATS HIM,ITS NATURE PURE AND SIMPLE.
@ LAUREN.. I HAVE AND THATS A FACT THEY HAVE BEEN DATING FOR 11 YEARS BUT ITS RUMORED THAT THEY BROKE UP A COUPLE MONTH AGO
i hope it is not true. however, we are frail & carnal. thus mistakes are made. no one should be put on a pedestal…the fall is hard.
@ CAT EYES, HELL THATS PROBABLY HOW HE GOT HER ASS OUT THERE “HUNTING”
@ Lauren
LMAO, long time boyfriend and manager, Krucial Keys. LOL, oh you actually bought into that one. She’s gay my friends.
LMAO, at an 11 year relationship with Krucial Keys. LOL
Okay Penthouse, whatever you say….lol…
@ PENT HOUSE
THEY MAAY BE A RUMOR,
IF YOU BEEN IN THE GAME THAT LONG, AND ALL WE HAVE ARE RUMORS AND SHE HASNT BEEN LINKED TO ANYONE YET!!! ILL NEED A LIL MORE PROOF THAN 4-5 MPEOPLES WORD. ILL BE THE FIRST TO ADMIT SHE IS A LITTLE BUTCH BUT SO ARE SEVERAL OTHER HETEROSEXUAL CELEBS, PUFFY GAY, YES , KANYE GAY, MAYBE, MICHAEL JACKON GAY , YES QUEEN LATIFAH GAY, HELL YEAH, ALICIA… I HAVENT PICKED UP 100% ON THAT ONE
@cat eyes
you really can’t believe that do you…there are lots of men who don’t cheat…and who don’t want to cheat…not every man is hunting for someone other than their spouse…some men do take their vows seriously and wouldn’t dare go outside of their marriage…and no woman should accept a cheating husband…period whether he keeps his affairs hidden or is blatant about it…
I CERTYAINLY BELIEVE THEY HAVE BEEN MESSIN AROUND FOR ABOUT 11 YRS UNTIL RECENTLY… TRUE SO TRUE
@Penthouse
Are you a lesbian? Better Yet, have you seen Alicia at one of the Lesbian gatherings?
LOL It’s a lie. Alicia’s gay
@ Shay, thats what I’m sayin, I mean Penthouse can scream all day long that Alicia is gay, but when he asks who’s she been linked to and we say Krucial Keys, do you have a woman that Alicia is linked to? Hell no, just because a girl wears cornrows for a couple years does not mean she is gay, its called style…
@! J-BIZZLE
OHH YOU GOT JOKES THIS MORNING,,, OK COOL IM WITH IT I HAVE A LONG DAY AHEAD OF ME 1.2.3 LET THE LAUGHS BEGIN
Aww…and I liked him and Shonda together but if A. Keys is dirty like that then may god be with her…it’s just certain thing you don’t touch and that’s married ppl!!!!
@ LAUREN
YEAH AND THEN WE THEY GO ALL OUT IN FULL HOE ATTIRE SHES FUCKING FOR TRACKS, THERES JUST NO PLEASEING PEOPLE, IM LIKE YOU SHOW ME SOMEONE SHES LINKED TO HELL IM NOT COMPLICATED… IM EASY TO PLEASE( IN MOST CASES)
JUST WANT A LITTLE PROOF TO GO IN THE PUDDIN
100
Mashonda need to stop hateing on Alicia Keys.Alicia don’t need Swizz Beats a%*&ss.She came do her own thing with out him. So mashonda can go sit her one hit wonder a*&@ss down some were.
Dont care what talent you have you are classless to f*ck with another womans husband you are a world wide entertainer with flavor all over the place - get your own!
Please your source is full of shit. I heard from Alicia’s closest confidant this is a never happened never even close.
@ VAY
NEGRO PLEASE… WHAT ONE HIT, SHES NEVER HAD A SOLO HIT, AND HER SINGING ON HOOKS DONT COUNT
BTW I have it on good authority Mashonda wants a career as a stylist and she is shopping a book deal.
I wouldn’t care if Alicia hit swiss beats, or not! She is no different from any other woman out here in the world..and it is a lot of women that hit married men out here! Maybe Mashonda wasn’t doing the sh*t that she started off in the relationship doing to get that far! When women get married..they think that..that is it..that is all they have to do..LADIES keep up the excitement in the relationship, or he will go somewhere else, and ALICIA is a banger..not saying that Mashonda isn’t pretty, but she is pretty plain!
BTW
She sound like she is scorned! What happen to that ugly cat..crucial keys?
Airing ya dirty laundry is never classy bossip. Was supahead classy….no. Same shyt, just without the graphical details.
And the reason i don’t believe this. I live in the NYC and I KNOW this isn’t the first time he’s cheated, so why all of sudden she leaves now. Really?!!! Give us the other names, and i don’t wanna hear that she don’t know about the others, bull ish……she needs a reason to have her name in out mouth, and thats why i don’t buy it.
It’s good to see that majority of comments up in here are supportive of our girl A. Keys, cause I personally don’t think she’d stoop down this low. This girl fights for causes and righteousness, so why would she set aside her morals and values for some married ding-a-ling….get out of here.
@ TJ
SHES STILL A NO BODY, AND WHAT THE HELL COULD SHE HAVE TO TELL IN A BOOK, D LISTERS
