Rumor Control: Alicia Keys and Swizz Keys ARE Enagaged

Posted on January 27th, 2010 - By Bossip Staff

Categories: Alicia Keys, Congratulations, News, Rumor Control, True or False?

According to a close source, Alicia Keys and Swizz Beatz are indeed engaged.  Pop the top for the photo evidence and details. 

The source says Swizz popped the question on Alicia’s 29th birthday and the two celebrated in Hawaii together.  The engagement is “secret” since Swizz is still in the process of divorcing Mashonda.  Read below:

Alicia Keys had a lot to smile about on her 29th birthday Jan. 25: an engagement ring from her producer beau, Swizz Beatz!

A pal tells UsMagazine.com that Beatz, 31 (who is currently divorcing wife Mashonda), proposed with a 7-carat sparkler right before her big day; the happy couple were photographed strolling on a Hawaii beach the day of the proposal, Jan. 24.

Keys’ rep denies she is engaged, but another friend reveals, “They are currently in Hawaii celebrating the engagement and her birthday. She feels blessed.” Adds the pal: “She is thrilled. She is with the man who has inspired so much of her music and her new album [The Element of Freedom].”

Swizz is equally smitten with Keys.”What we have is so precious,” he gushed to the New York Daily News last year.

All we want to know is Where the Hell is Mashonda???

    You think? Yeah bro I’m bored but not for long. I’m about to get out of here. Have a good night.

  • Quent

    MASHONDA IS WHERE SHE SHOULD BE…”OUT OF THE PICTURE.” HOPEFULLY SHE HAS MOVED ON WITH HER LIFE. Because of the kid, She is going to have to see Keys whether she wants to or not. So she has to get over this stuff.

    But on the real, DO YOU THINK MASHONDA IS GOING TO THE WEDDING?!?!?

  • Hannibal

    Congratulations to them if this is true! I am happy for them, eff the haters. It is not Alicia’s fault that Mashonda can’t keep her man. LOL

  • Hannibal

    SWIZZ CHOSE ALICIA BECAUSE SHE BRINGS MORE TO THE TABLE

  • LA’S FINEST

    That’s good if they are engaged. Nothing wrong with being in love.

  • B3 Fearless

    jjj must be a youngin.

    Congrats to them and Mashonda is laying low like she needs to be. Get that divorce and move on.

    She shouldn’t feel blessed because the way they got together was not of God. But I digress…

    This relationship will not last. The way she A. Keys got him is the way she’ll lose him.

  • Hannibal

    HE KINDA LOOKS LIKE BERT FROM SESAME STREET

  • 2Sweet

    Alicia is lucky Mashonda ain’t one of these Italian broads…get her brother or uncle to bump you out of here real quick!

  • http://bossip I`ll Talk about what I want to talk about Nucca !

    Anybody think he forgets he`s a human and tries to peck Alicia with his nose when she starts going on and on on and on when she`s trying to say something deep when she wins one more award from BET !

  • http://bossip I`ll Talk about what I want to talk about Nucca !

    @ Hannibal

    So true !! LOL Like a retarded ” BERT ” ! Like a Bert that sniffs coke and drinks shots of henny and slurs his speech and knocks over sheet at a party and falls down a flight of stairs and lands safely on his big F.U.C.C.I.N. beak ! LIke that kind of Bert !

    Damn he do got a big a.s.s. nose. wow A.keys use to be my girl and i use to have alot of respect for her but i dont believe in breaking up marriages. some stuff is not meant to be true but that dont mean u take a part in destroying it.

  • help me, rhonda

    now this is going to be interesting…

  • toosexy

    I am happy for her, and mashonda , because as soon as the happy beginning is over, he will be cheating on her, just like cheaters do.

  • Riiiiiggghhhtt…

    uh, i love alicia but this is a dumb move. even WITHOUT judging them there was definitely overlap between swizz being legally married and hooking up with alicia. so getting engaged without waiting for the drama to subside is a dumb move both morally and professionally. LOL @ Hannibal talking about throwing rice at alicia.

  • B3 Fearless

    LOL @Hannibal and I`ll Talk about what I want to talk about Nucca !

    Y’all have me rofl!

  • always knew

  • I Luv NeYo

  • named with hold

    THAT WAS STUPED AT LESE HE CAN WEITE FOR HIS DIVROICE TO GET DONE BEFORE HE GIVE ALICA A RING ALICA KEY IS GOING TO BE A MOM AND EVERYBODY KNOWS WHO THE FATHER IS. THATT GOOD AM HAPPY FOR HER.

  • B3 Fearless

    lol love the sarcasm “just me.”

    @Angela – calm down ppl are just having fun. Don’t take it seriously. Calm down my sister.

  • christelle

    swizz beat is just not cute… usher has a broad nose and he is fine! but hey, obviously mashanda and alica dont think like me! ugly men need love too just like ugly girls …

  • Miss All That!!

    TAKE THEY DAM MONEY AWAY, AND PUT THEY AZZ IN A ONE BEDROOM APARTMENT IN THE BRONX, AND LETS SEE THEN HOW LONG THIS FAIRYTALE WOULD LAST!! Now that is the true test if it is love or not..

    I no longer feel sorry for Mashonda’s big head azz no more, because that chick is living good with her $5,000 dollars a week that Swizzy drops on her.. That Bi**h better dry them tears with one of those Benjamins and keep that shizz movin..

  • Alrighty Then…

    Is he ever going to divorce his WIFE? Or just keep picking up new ones as he goes along? lol! This is pure f*ckery, if it’s true…

  • rain

    Mashonda will get the last laugh,,if swizz beak marry alicia k, his income grows ,there for Mashonda money grows,Alicia keys will also be a asset to mashonda…He’s definitly is going to cheat on A keys

  • Miss All That!!

    C.O.K.E

  • rain

    Alicia boo,how you marrying a man thats already married…Is swizzy a bigamist

  • Mrs. Rance

    If it’s true CONGRATS to them. I hope they don’t deprive us of the wedding pics like Jay and B did. (I’ll never get over that)

    I like them together.

  • B3 Fearless

    Mrs. Rance Jay and B’s marriage is a publicity stunt. They are strictly business partners so don’t be sad about missing the wedding pics…

    I think A. Keys will make a beautiful bride I’m just sad about who she has chosen to give her heart to.

  • Noel

    @angela….so are we to congratulate a woman who is engaged to a married man? black or white…they are both wrong…you’re looking too deep into this…black hatred? what about alicia keys? that’s how you do your fellow african american sister? i don’t think so!

  • The Rock (Layin The Smack Down On Your Candy @$$)

    Alicia need The Rock in her life not a rock in her life by a married man!!!

  • bossip.got.nerve

    Good luck to her…. NEXT !

  • beyondfake1oopsbeyonce

    Now when I listen to her song about Karma and a Women’s Worth I know it was all a bunch of bullshit

  • Seaside Manchurian

    I think b/c she is A. Keys “soulwoman” people are writing her a pass. I could careless about Mashondat the fact is they are not even divored yet and he is engaged to A. Keys. That’s a WOMP WOMP for her if he does decide to go back with his wife. A Keys is a catch I would have never guessed she would date somebody like Swizz. That says alot about her believe it or not. Alicia may be as hood as half you on this board.

  • monique

    Doesn’t he have to get divorced first? Anyway no one should get involved with anybody, unless the divorce is finalized for at least a year.

  • http://google Dee Dee01

    What’s the rush, Ma?

  • lala

    Congrats to them. People take stuff way too seriously. None of this is happening to you so why all the hatred and venom. I agree with Angela, Black people are the worst. Yall hate everyone that’s not black and you hate those that are black. You don’t like okay fine you don’t like it, say congrats and keep it movin, damn.

  • I’m Just Me….Keeping It Real Since: 1983….79 DAYS LEFT

    THIS ISN’T GOING TO LAST. THINGS THAT STARTED OFF UNDER NAUGHT, WILL NOT FLORISH!!

  • lala

    Besides did you read the title RUMOR CONTROL. It’s just a rumor, till I hear it from the horses mouth, I don’t believe nothing that’s on this site. Especially if no other LEGITIMATE sources haven’t talked about it, like TMZ lol.

  • I’m Just Me….Keeping It Real Since: 1983….79 DAYS LEFT

    A Keys is a catch I would have never guessed she would date somebody like Swizz. That says alot about her believe it or not. Alicia may be as hood as half you on this board.

    ******************************************************

    From what some posters have said in the past, she is rather hood. IDK if it is true because I have never met her but that is what has been said.

  • colin

    she’s such a pretty girl

  • colin

    she’s prettier than beyonce.

  • Well Alright…….

    Hold Up! Wait a minute! He’s “engaged”, but he’s still legally married, and Alicia Keys says she’s BLESSED?! LOL!!!!

  • roxanne payne

    i hope the rumors about them and how they got together arent true but if it is they will be held accountable but i wish al parties the best

  • BabyL

    Look I don’t need to know squat I can judge that what this blog is for to judge people we buy their CD’s support their music and business endeavors while they do not owe us the public their fans an explanation please believe when they F*** up we will be right there and have some S*** to say. This looks hella foul and coming from someone so conscious a move like this is disapointing… But like someone has already said her song KARMA will come to fruition…

  • rum&indigo

    alicia seems pretty intelligent, so im guessing this is just a rumor. but love can be deaf dumb and blind so anything is possible. idk… but i dont care how many carats it is, why would any woman want to be the fiancee of someone who isnt even divorced…?

  • Boo

    Alicia’s crooked a$$ smile and tomboy swagga before her makeover tell me this is no rumor and she probably thinks she came up with Swizz Beats!

  • chicken little

    I just don’t understand…how do you feel “blessed” to be engaged to SOMEBODY ELSE’S HUSBAND! That fool still married! Sistas, my sistas, we got to do better.

  • glamour girl

    ALICIA KEYS HAS LOST ALL RESPECT FROM ME…FIRST OF ALL AS A WOMAN OF CLASS AND MORALS MARRIED MAN OFF LIMITS…THIS RELATIONSHIP STARTED WRONG AND WILL LATER END WRONG…ITS NEW AND TRUST ME I DONT SEE THEM TOGETHER FOREVER…LOVE ALICIA MUSIC BUT HER CONFUSED TOMBOYISH IMAGE.SWIZZ IS JUST SOAKING UP FAME AND MONEY….MASHONDA IS GETTING PAID GREATLY WITH BOTH ALICIA’S MONEY AS WELL AS SWIZZ BEATZ….MASHONDA IS ROLLING IN EXPENSIVE RIDES AND NICE PLUSH HOUSE….ALL THIS ATTENTION GIVING TO ALICIA SWEETZ BEATZ IS GETTING PLAYED OUT….

  • Hottestchickinthegame

    Good for him. He finally found where he wants to be.

    I wish them happiness and love eternal. They seem to have the real thing from what I gather from pictures and what he has expressed himself!

  • http://www.boissuq.com/ Keli

    Tragic.

  • the anti idiot

    Congrats to the happy couple although this story is as bogus as hell.

  • Makela

    So utterly disgusted if this is indeed true… who the f*** buys an engagement ring when they are still married? Who the f*** accepts a proposal from a married man in the middle of a divorce?

    I can’t stand homewrecking whor*s! These two make a complete mockery out of themselves and their ‘relationship’. What goes around comes around and the same way she got him, she’ll lose him.

    Decent people do not conduct themselves in this manner, but when people show you who they are believe them.

    Team Mashonda for real!

  • Torrie

    Can we see some divorce papers first?

  • http://Bossip Anonymous

    IF the rumor is true, AK may have ‘won’, but what does she think she’s won? Well she wanted him and now she’s got him!! No Tears at a later date AK!!!

  • Mock Rock Star

    I think if these two do decide to get married it will be a marriage of convenience. They will put their money together, but both will have extra-marital affairs on the side

  • http://??????????? Pinsongirl79

    Did we forget that he is still married????? I think it would be a great thing if he was divorced. When does the drama ever stop!!!Does anyone remember what the word RESPECT means?????

  • resurrected

    I am so tried of this it is what it is and if AK is alright with losing some fans over it and it effecting her career then let the chips fall as it may… One thing I do know for sure is when a person show immaturity in one relationship there rarely bring maturity to the new relationship as well… Relationship is really a growth thing and most people don’t want to grow.. The same man who did not take time to see why the first relationship desolve will put no time into finding out why the relationship after that did not work either… Both of them are moving way too fast to care about problem solving solutions they are like very love strick person thinking it will work out for them but everything requires balance, time and discipline to create new and better developments… If Swiss has never shown Ak that when dealing with his first wife why do she think that she will get it being her second wife… And announcing an engagement when the first marriage is not offically desolved is very tacky and it shows there maturity as well good think his son is not old enough to understand this mess…

  • wtfever

    I hope if never ever comes to pass. How they started, on the sly, is how they will end!!

  • mzdiva

    she is very pretty

    maybe the second time around

    hope they stay in love

  • Wildcherry666

    I think both of them should be boycotted. Don’t buy their music or buy tickets to see her in concert. It is not just these two. It’s all of the celebrities and professional athletes who go around and conduct themselves in such trifilin ways. It’s time for black people to start making these people accountable and show our children whats acceptable.

  • JSUDIVA95

    How bout can you wait til you’re officially divorced before you go poppin the question..wow the same way you got em Alicia is the same way he’ll leave ya. I waited til I was free and clear of my ex baggage before moving on and making sure the man I was with wasn’t just a rebound man..SMH at Alicia and Swizzy..smh
    @Taisha..sometimes depending on what kind of assets, if there are children involved, property and if so how it will be divided a divorce can take awhile, divorces don’t happen overnight especially if its not amicable, trust me I know….

  • 2dimplzs

    Swizz is one ugly fugly dude – good grief! What goes around comes around. Her adulterous relationship inspired her songs on her album? When their relationship falls apart we’ll see how inspired she is then. You can’t do dirt and say “you’re blessed” as if God would bless the very thing he hates which is CHEATING ON YOUR MATE (and people who KNOWINGLY CHEAT WITH MARRIED PEOPLE) – and think your mess is going to last! I wish folks would wake up cause these two are clearly kidding themselves and very delusional!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • FiveStarish

    It will never last, because they are rushing into it to prove something. He shoulda went to counseling with Mashonda and worked it out. Their union is already cursed. @Christelle – you are %100 right…Alicia prayed for their downfall after kicking with them and seeing how would be to be his wife.

  • alica cant sing

    keri hilson is the best now if u agree reply

  • mzdiva

    boy I bet he catches a lot of dust up that nose

  • INTENSEMOCHA

    WOW HEFFAS FOAMING AT THE MOUTH AT THE POSSIBILITY THAT AKEYS AND SWIZZ MAY GET MARRIED

    IF HE CHEATED ON MASHONDA WITH AKEYS THEN MASHONDA SHOULD COUNT HER BLESSINGS THAT SHE NO LONGER HAS TO DEAL WITH THAT

    BUT AT THE END OF THE DAY IT’S THEIR LIFE TO LIVE-KARMA IS IN THE EYE OF THE BEHOLDER AND TYPICALLY IT’S ALWAYS SOMEONE WHOSE HURT WAITING,HOPING, WISHING, AND PRAYING THAT THE PERSON WHO HURTS THEM GETS HURT IN RETURN

    LET GO PEOPLE AND SEEK PROFESSIONAL HELP-MARRIAGES BREAK UP ALL THE TIME, MASHONDA CAN AND WILL BE JUST FINE!

  • Jamaquina.Cubana

    How are you drawing another into your sphere before officially kicking out the 1st one you brought in?!!? These entertainment folks are completely tactless & distasteful!

    AllyKeys…how do you know it’s not the same “luv u” he THOUGHT he had (still legally has) w/Mashonda?!!

    This is some GAHHHHHBIGE!!
    No congrats from me!

  • A

    This has got to be a rumor. From what I’ve heard she was married to a woman. Unless this is a cover up of some sort. Something in this story reeks false.

    On the other hand, I have “Tears of a Clown” playing back and forth in my head for some reason…. hmmm… haha

  • yolander sermon

    Excuse me for asking but, Since when do already married men get engaged? where they do that at?.Alicia is nothing more than his mistress!!! it is what it is, so call it what it is….ADULTERY!!!!!!!!!

  • yolander sermon

    Pardon me for asking,but since when do already married men get engaged. Let’s be real about this sh*t. Alicia is nothing but his mistress. It is what it is, so let’s call it what it is…..”"ADULTERY”" Alicia is a home wrecking b*tch,and he is a F*cking dog using the wrong head to think with!!! MASHONDA YOU ARE BETTER OFF WITHOUT HIM. The next dog you get, get him
    from the pet store.

  • ejdollaz

    Alicia Keys is FINE AS WINE. Swiss betta h0ld on to dat beauty.

  • lol

    Lol at how some of yall reason: “Mashonda should thankful to Alicia bc she doesn’t have to deal with a cheating man?” Are females really this dumb? Never ceases to amaze me. Anyways, well Tucan Sam (lol @ whoever said that) done made an even lower-low of getting engaged to someone while still legally married, LOL. Trash can be so bold? Truly garbage, I’d be ashamed if I was his mama.

    And to everyone who thinks she’s gonna lose him in the same manner, I disagree. Because of her status right now, it would take a GOOD minute before someone could “top” her. And if anything, SHE would be the 1st to leave because she obviously gets more shine than the Meerkat does. Both are equally foul.

  • Spice

    No one knows the whole truth behind this , how they got together or the circumstances around it…..About his ex wife , people beak up , marriages don’t always last forever … who says they are really engaged though ?, but if they are ; CONGRATS TO THEM BOTH AND I WISH THEM BOTH ALL THE BEST …. LIVE YOUR LIFE TO THE FULLEST AND IF HAPPY SWISS MAKES YOU HAPPY ….. WELL DO YOUR THING GIRL…..LOVE DON’T ALWAYS COMES IN THE WAY WE DREAM IT TO BE …….

    alicia would never mess with a married man, she has too much self respect for herherself.. Not to mention she’s about to get married. With SUPER WOMEN, what you see is what you get. She’s the REAL MCCOY there is no second guessing that. A soon to be queen… There isn’t another women on earth that deserves what she is about to experience..
