AceShowbiz – Alicia Keys has shocked fans with news she was close to becoming a member of girl band 3LW in the early days of her career.
The “Girl on Fire” hitmaker dropped out of the running to join the trio shortly before she released her Grammy-winning solo debut album, “Songs in A Minor”, in 2001.
“My second band that I was in, was kind of like one of these projects that are put together by people, and they heard I sang and they were like, ‘Oh, maybe you could be a part of it…,’ ” Alicia recalled during WIRED’s Autocomplete Interviews Video Series. “It didn’t work out with me, but eventually they came out. I think their name was Little Women, but I was never part of that.”

Alicia scooped up five Grammys for “Songs in A Minor” after stepping away from the opportunity to join 3LW, short for 3 Little Women, comprised of Adrienne Bailon, Kiely Williams and Naturi Naughton.
Their biggest hit, “No More (Baby I’ma Do Right)”, was released in 2000, a year ahead of Alicia’s solo debut.
