Alicia Keys: My Motivation and Inspiration

Alicia Keys talks about growing up in New York's Hell Kitchen, her determination not to be pigeon-holed as a performer or as a woman, her marriage and motherhood.

Alicia Keys started writing music at 15 years of age and her first album, recorded when she was only 19, won a record five Grammy awards. She talks about growing up in New York's Hell Kitchen, her determination not to be pigeon-holed as a performer or as a woman and how choosing to wear no make-up - even on stage and on camera - has left her more free to be herself. Presented by Babita Sharma.
