What do you do when you want to be friends with your favorite singer? If you’re Genesis, the 9-year-old son of Alicia Keys, you ask your mom to help you out!
That’s exactly what happened when Genesis, a massive fan of Billie Eilish, decided to reach out to the star. He made a cute video message for Eilish, telling her how much he loves her music and introducing himself as Alicia Keys’ son.
Alicia Keys, who is not only a renowned singer but also a supportive mom, was happy to oblige. She shared the video with Eilish, who happens to be her friend since 2019. The two singers have collaborated on a cover of Eilish’s hit song “Ocean Eyes” and performed it together on The Late Late Show With James Corden.
Eilish was touched by Genesis’s request and sent a video back. She welcomed him as her friend and asked him to tell her when. She also invited her brother, Finneas O’Connell, to join the video and greet Genesis.
Alicia Keys posted the videos on her Instagram account, where they received thousands of likes and comments from fans. Many people praised Alicia as a wonderful mother who fostered a positive and supportive environment for her children. Alicia has two sons, Genesis and Egypt, with her husband, Swizz Beatz. She is also a stepmom to Beatz’s three children from previous relationships.
