A Harlem-bred piano and soul prodigy, Alicia Keys became an overnight sensation after her 2001 debut “Songs in A Minor” moved 10 million units worldwide. Since then, she’s become a full-fledged superstar in music and film, releasing two more studio efforts, including last year’s mature “As I Am,” as well as starring in movies like “Smokin’ Aces,” “The Nanny Diaries” and forthcoming projects “The Secret Life of Bees” and a biopic about biracial piano prodigy (sound familiar?) Philippa Schuyler. She’s also managed to find time to fight AIDS in Africa (captured in a documentary called “Alicia in Africa”) and stage a world tour featuring A-list openers like Jordin Sparks and Ne-Yo.
