- Alicia Keys Stopped Wearing Makeup In 2016 And It Was A Controversial Move.
- It began when a photographer encouraged her to do a "totally raw" album photoshoot on a whim. "I swear it is the strongest, most empowered, most free, and most honestly beautiful that I have ever felt," Keys says.
- The bare-faced look received mixed reactions from the public when it debuted, and it also reportedly caused some drama behind the scenes of "The Voice."
- At the time a source said, "Alicia is annoying everyone with her whole makeup thing because it really has an impact on the entire production."
- Keys eventually returned to full makeup looks on occasion in 2023.
