Did anyone even know this woman before all of this mess?  I agree with several of the comments, the open letter for everyone to see was not the right way to handle this.  It wasn&#039;t good for the child-mainly.  It definitely wasn&#039;t good for Alicia.  I&#039;ve got a feeling that was the main reason it was done.  It only benefited one person, Mashonda.  There was no reason for Mashonda to want or need to speak to Alicia, especially not like that.  A letter maybe sent the old fashioned way?  Anyway I&#039;m sure Alicia was aware what M wanted and it really wasn&#039;t her decision.  He is a grown man and can make his own decisions.  If this had been going on over a year it was pretty obvious it was over.  If another article was true where M supposedly crashed a second party and made a scene by publicly making a fool of herself and said horrible things to Alicia, I can kind of see why Alicia wouldn&#039;t want to speak to a looney out of her head woman.  I do believe things are not always what they seem.  And no, I don&#039;t still like Alicia because I put her on a pedastal and think she&#039;s better than anyone else or because she&#039;s a celebrity, but I do still have much respect and admire her very much just because of the person I still believe she is.  I do realize she&#039;s human like everyone else.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Since M has wrote the letter, she&#8217;s had an album, wrote a book, done a TV show, and had more attention than ever, although she says she didn&#8217;t do any of this as a publicity stunt. ????

This letter hit on so many points. I&#039;ve read so many negative comments about Alicia and Mashonda, but what about Swizz? He had a part in this too. Let&#039;s face it, they&#039;re all grown adults. Swizz and Alicia knew exactly what they were getting themselves into. Mashonda, keep your focus on being the best parent you can be. Swizz, teach your sons not to make the same stupid mistakes you made. And Alicia, newsflash, if he cheated on wife#1 what&#039;s stopping him from cheating on you??? You married that mess now you have to live with it!</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Wow!!! This letter hit on so many points.

Sometimes a scorned woman has to get things off her chest. For all of you who says stop whining, move on etc etc. Read what she says and imagine the shoe on the other foot and she has moved on.  Stop hating on a woman who is human and has feelings.  All of you would have felt the same way. So stop fronting.  As far as Alicia Keys and Swizz Beatz another urban statistic. Karma written by Ms. Keys.  Be there for the children.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I feel your pain Mashonda. Sometimes a scorned woman has to get things off her chest.
