Alicia Keys [1] stopped wearing makeup [2] in 2016, simply because she didn't want to anymore. Fans have admired her conviction ever since and loved seeing her barefaced on The Voice, on red carpets, and presumably as the host at the Grammys. The 38-year-old singer has let her freckles shine through over the years, occasionally wearing a bit of makeup, but only when she feels like it [3], not because anyone expects her to. Ahead, you'll see some of the many times she's attended an event without so much as a coat of mascara and looked damn good doing it.
