Alicia Keys is no doubt a global superstar with 15 Grammy wins and 35 million albums sold worldwide.
She has now returned to the music scene after taking a break to raise her two boys, Egypt, six, and Genesis, one. Now when it comes to movies Keys draws the line at Disney's 1937 animated classic Snow White.
"It's totally sexist, misogynistic - she's cleaning for seven dwarfs. There's nothing wrong with a woman who chooses to stay at home with her family, it's a hard-ass job, but it's the way it's spoken about."
Keys explains why she gets "real funky about the classics" telling The Edit,"they say every child learns from their mother - it's ingrained from babyhood."
Keys and her artist-producer husband Swizz Beatz were married in 2010 in Corsica.
The same year she gave birth to her son Egypt in October and Genesis was born in 2014 on December 27.
