Alicia Keys Zone is site of the month at Rihanna-Style.Net! Thanks Nikki! Check out the award below:

Alicia Keys and Jordin Sparks will perform in the Super Bowl XLII Pregame Show on FOX at University of Phoenix Stadium in Arizona on Sunday, Feb. 3. The Super Bowl XLII Pregame Show will be Keys’ second performance before a Super Bowl. She took the stage to sing “America the Beautiful” with 150 students from the Florida School for the Deaf and the Blind prior to Super Bowl XXXIX in Jacksonville on Feb. 6, 2005. As previously reported, Sparks will sing the National Anthem before the big game.

If you think about it, the soundtrack to “Juno” — the sleeper film that’s now been nominated for a Best Picture Oscar — has no business being Billboard’s best-selling album. After all, it is a collection of songs from a number of relatively unknown and largely underground artists, musicians like Kimya Dawson, Sonic Youth, Belle and Sebastian and the Moldy Peaches.

“I never looked at charts in my life,” Dawson told MTV News earlier this month. “I’m not interested in being with a major label, I just make music and play shows. And I live in Washington State, which I like because there, people play music because they like music. [The attention from ‘Juno’ is] “All just weird,” she continued. “I’m mainly happy about it because I love the movie ‘Juno’ and I’m happy to be a part of it.”

Yet, somehow, the record has managed to surpass a mega-star like Alicia Keys and assume the chart’s peak position with a mere 64,800 copies. Released seven weeks ago, the LP failed to chart initially, selling just 4,700 units. But in truth, it was only a matter of time before “Juno” reached the top. Four weeks ago, the soundtrack came from out of nowhere, entering the top 200 for the first time at #8 with sales reported at 38,000. The week after that, it climbed to #3 and then, the following week, to #2. It’s been a slow and steady ascension for the soundtrack, which bumps Keys’ As I Am, which scanned 59,800 copies, to #2, making “Juno” the nation’s new chart-topper, according to the latest SoundScan totals.

In what could turn out to be her big coming-out moment, indie rocker and Best New Artist nominee Feist, famous for the “1234″ song featured in a ubiquitous iPod ad, has been added to the list of performers for the upcoming Grammys Awards ceremony. Also joining the performer list are Alicia Keys and country star Brad Paisley, as well as a special tribute to the Beatles featuring the casts of the Las Vegas show “LOVE by Cirque du Soleil” (based on the Fab Four’s music) and the Beatles-inspired big-screen musical “Across the Universe.”

Keys Launches Innovative “As I Am” Mobile Contest to Support a Good Cause and Celebrate Superwomen Around the World.
Multi-Grammy Award winning singer, songwriter, producer, actress and philanthropist Alicia Keys recently partnered with Seattle-based Treemo (http://www.treemo.com) to launch the innovative “As I Am” contest, a mobile and web contest to support the Keep A Child Alive (KCA) charity. The contest directly benefits KCA as Treemo will donate $1 to the cause for every unique user who enters the “As I Am” contest, up to $10,000.

Keys is the Global Ambassador for Keep A Child Alive, a charity providing an urgent response to the AIDS pandemic ravaging Africa. KCA provides comprehensive AIDS care to over 20,000 people living with AIDS; including provision of life-saving AIDS medications, nutritional support and treatment for AIDS-related illnesses. They also provide care and support to thousands of children who have lost their parents from this devastating disease. KCA uses 100% of public donations for the cause, a fact very few charities can honestly claim.

“This contest and Treemo’s support will not only increase our ability to spread the word about the realities of this pandemic, but also recruit more potential donors who can easily see they can indeed save the life of someone who needs their help. It’s only $1 a day to sustain a life; it’s time we all start giving a buck,” said Leigh Blake, Founder and President of KCA.
