It's a very serious thing."Alicia also said Zoey 101 star Jamie Lynn, who is dating 19-year-old Casey Aldridge, may have found it difficult to not have sex because she became famous at such a young age.She added to US TV show The View: "Different people have different lives and different situations. I think that it is a very intense business and that in a lot of ways you are exposed to so much so quickly, so often there's really no limit to what you can get, or have, or do. Whatever you ask for is there. "You can be 13. You can be nine. You can be 47. It really doesn't matter. Everything is basically handed to you on a platter."But the point is that it gets very hard and difficult because most of the people in the industry are very young and we are influenced easily."

Last week, Renée Zellweger revealed she wants to purchase a firearm.The 'Miss Potter' actress finds living alone "scary" and has considered buying a weapon to make her feel safer. Renée, 37, said: "People usually mean no harm, but it's scary if there is a car idling outside your house in the middle of the woods at four in the morning. You realise you can't live there any more. It's sad, but that's how it works. It's no big deal. It's just a job hazard."I don't want to own a gun, but sometimes I do think about it."

Just last week she did a interview on how she had carried a knife as a teenager in New York City's Hell's Kitchen Neighbourhood. First of all Alicia Keys is 26 years old. Hells Kitchen is right next to Times Square and has not been dangerous in 20 years. That would make Alicia 6 when she carried a knife. I think you should find different lies to get publicity !

Alicia Keys carried a knife when she was a child. The singer, who grew up in tough Manhattan neighbourhood Hell's Kitchen has revealed she felt safer when she carried a weapon. Alicia said: "Protection was a big issue. You felt more comfortable with a knife. I felt if someone tried to touch you I would have something to surprise them." The Grammy award-winning musician says her mother was furious when she discovered Alicia was carrying the knife and vowed to take her daughter away from the dangerous neighbourhood. Alicia explained to Britain's Guardian newspaper: "I don't remember if she took it away but she was definitely upset. She was upset that I had to be like that, feel like that. She said, If this is the case we'll move." "It doesn't matter where you move, there's always a situation where someone's attacking you or the possibility of it." The 26-year-old star - who makes her acting debut in new movie 'Smokin Aces' has also admitted that she found it hard to adjust to her fame, because people expected her to dress in a feminine way. She said: "When I first got into the business, people were saying, 'Why areyou such a tomboy?' I was a tomboy because I thought I had to protect myself. As a young lady you have to be careful. I felt any time I called attention to myself, it would bring unwanted attention. I didn't want attention like that so I shrank away from it. It was a while before I became comfortable as a young lady to be able to dress more feminine."
