Alicia Keys was among the performers for Walmart's annual shareholders’ meeting at Bud Walton Arena in Fayetteville, Arkansas today.  Wearing a leg-revealing blue dress with hot pink heels, Alicia promoted the 10th anniversary edition of Songs In A Minor available at Walmart on June 28.

 

As Alicia began her performance she said to the audience, “How’s everybody feeling today? Thank you so much for having me. I want to give a big, big shout-out to all my people from Walmart all over the world here tonight."

And in design news.......

 

Music producer Pharrell has designed a glass sculpture called “Inside Out” for the Glastress show at the Berengo Centre for Contemporary Art and Glass in Murano, Italy.

According to Rap-Up.com, the handmade artwork was a collaboration with Berengo Studio and consists of two angel skeletons, one hovering at over 6-feet tall with a smaller one flying behind it.

 
Pharrell explained the design saying, “Since I was a little boy my wonderous curiosities were based on fictional things that television offered.  My mind was crammed pack with creatures fit for a child that were often funny, designed for youth, and usually a profitable franchise like cartoons. Even still, I couldn’t stop thinking about angels.”
