Fresh off winning two NAACP Image Awards and singing the National Anthem at the Superbowl this past weekend, Alicia Keys just announced she'll be taking over the 2013 NBA All-Star Halftime show in Houston.

Plus, we've got her newest video project for Blackberry. Deets inside...

After looking fabulous for her Superbowl performance this past weekend in a curve hugging red Alaïa gown and Marina B Kar gold collar necklace, Alicia Keys is ready for another big sports show.

The NBA just announced that she is slated to perform at the 2013 NBA All Star game during halftime on February 17th. Ne-Yo will sing during player introductions while John Legend will sing the national anthem.

YBF performers are taking over EVERYTHING. Gotta love it.

She also just released one of her first videos for Blackberry after becoming the brand's new Global Creative Director. She's doing a project that features her life and her family. And she's capturing it all on the new Blackberry 10. Check it above.

Next up for LiLi....she's performing with Maroon 5 at this Sunday's GRAMMYS. And her Set The World On Fire world tour (featuring Miguel) kicks off this March.

just because she does not

just because she does not butt shake and couchie pop all over the stage, does not mean she will be boring.... like glady's knight said before "you can keep your clothes on and still be sexy" some artist needs to act their age already, some are married w/children still acting like they are 20, give me a break already!!! smh

It's not about butt shaking

It's not about butt shaking and couchie popping w/ her IT'S ABOUT HER STAYING ON TUNE, and staying in her RANGE OF SINGING. DON'T NOBODY WANT TO HEAR HER SCREAMING & YELLING AGAIN!

She definitely has talent but

She definitely has talent but she's not what I was expecting for a halftime performance. Most halftimes usually have an uptempo party feel and Alicia doesnt really sing those kind of songs. Maybe she'll change it up...at least I hope so.
