We're used to seeing her behind a piano, entertaining sold-out crowds around the world. But yesterday Alicia Keys was spotted taking it easy, and looking quite sexy during a poolside relaxation time.

The "A Woman's Worth" songstress spent the afternoon chowing down on snacks and chilling out by the pool at her hotel in Perth, Australia, sporting a super-hot black bikini.

Miss Keys is in the Land Down Under for a very special gig tonight (December 20th) at Sandalford Wines in Perth's Swan Valley.

Joining Alicia (who has sold 30 million albums worldwide) at the sold-out event will be fellow chanteuse Jordin Sparks, as well as hip-hop act Lowrider.

Enjoy the pictures of Alicia Keys sunbathing in Perth (December 19).
