Alicia Keys' Hiring! Blogger Job Search

Grammy Award-winning musician and globally conscious entrepreneur Alicia Keys has partnered with Monster.com - a national hunt for the Head Blogger of her forthcoming website IAAS.com (I Am A Super Woman). “With IAAS.com, I’ll be displaying my ‘voice’ in a different way and need just the right person to help me express a point of view that I don’t think exists yet in the blog world,” comments Alicia Keys.

IAAS.com will launch officially in July, 2010 with the goal of creating a fun, inspiring online neighborhood for super women to check in with what other super women are thinking, doing, feeling, working on, eating, buying, wearing and laughing about, and to prompt discussions on things the modern super woman cares about. The site, which is in its early stages of development, will launch in July once the Head Blogger position is filled. Over the course of the next year, it will grow into a full, editorial site with a unique point of view. IAAS.com is the first major undertaking for AK Worldwide, Inc. the company Alicia opened as the home and incubator for a number of ventures developing outside her career in music.
