Alicia Keys wants to bring a lion onstage

‘Girl On Fire’ star Alicia Keys has revealed that she would like to have lions and elephants on stage for a future tour, but the money stops her.

The singer was chatting with Greg James on Radio 1 when the topic of live shows came up. Keys said she wishes she had “Lions jumping through hoops” up there with her.

She added: “I could ride in on an elephant, but it could be too distracting. That would be very expensive. You gotta watch your money or it’s gonna be gone.”

But even without the animals on the roster, Keys still sees her life as a circus of sorts.

“I liken my job to a circus but even a circus stays longer than we stay,” she said. “It’s so fast and fleeting.”
