Fallin'' singer Alicia was given the Entertainment Award

Fallin'' singer Alicia was given the Entertainment Award, at the glitzy
ceremony held at Washington's Warner Theatre, but said she still can't
believe she gets paid to do what she loves.

She said: "For me,
I'm just a girl from Harlem, and here I am. It's a tremendous feeling
to do what you love and for people to love what you do.

"People are honouring me for doing what my heart tells me to do, and that is so fulfilling."

R'n'B
star John Legend was in the audience at the Warner Theatre in
Washington when Alicia was awarded with the accolade, and said he
couldn't think of a more deserving candidate.

He said: "Alicia
has had exceptional success in her career. She carries herself with
such dignity and grace, and her charitable work is also really
exceptional. I think she's a great entertainer and a great citizen of
the world."
