Alicia Keys set pulses racing with her wardrobe choice on the Today Show on Monday.

The Empire State of Mind singer wore a sheer black top that left her bra completely visible while performing her new single on the New York based show.

And as she threw herself into the music the sexy 31-year-old seemed completely unaware of the sensation she was causing.

Alicia teamed the eye-popping top with sprayed on high-waisted trousers and killer wedge ankle boots.

The Fallin star was also sporting a new bobbed hair do.

Just a few days ago the mother-of-one was seen with a slicked back, almost masculine quiff that suited her heart-shaped face very well.

But her new style was just as flattering on her.

Sheer delight: The 31-year-old singer wore a see-through black shirt over her bra and teamed it with form fitting black trousers.

Alicia, who is in NY promoting her new album Girl On Fire, was seen later in the day in black leather trousers and a black leather blazer.

She smiled for fans and had cherry-red lips as she made her way out of the studio.

Alicia's daring outfit for the Today Show comes just a few days after she almost suffered a major wardrobe malfunction on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon.

On Thursday the singer, who is married to Swizz Beatz, wore a purple top that was so low cut she almost spilled out of it as she chatted to Fallon.

Girl On Fire is Alicia's fifth album and she has recently said that having her son, Egypt, has improved her music writing skills.

She told Google+ Hangout: 'I think having a son now, I found a place I never knew before.

'I feel like I have a centre I didn't have before, an openness I didn't have before.'

And the star, who married her husband the same year she gave birth, has happily settled into family life.

Style queen: The Fallin singer is sporting a fabulous new bobbed hair style as she goes about her promotional duties

She told Stylist magazine: 'My husband was the first person who really said to me: "You're not going to dinner after that big awards show? Why?" It wasn't even part of my thinking to be like: "Wow, this is awesome. Look what we did."

'That wasn't the culture I was brought up in. I was working really hard and I don't know if I expected anything.

'When I began to know my husband, it would be little fun things he would do for me, or his friends. I never knew how he could know so many people.'

And while the singer is enjoying life at home, she will soon embark on a tour of the U.K. and will visit cities including Liverpool, Newcastle, Manchester, Birmingham, Nottingham and London between 18 and 30 May 2013.

She said: 'I’m so excited to be touring again and it’s great to be back in the UK! I Love it here and I’m looking forward to performing and feeling the energy of the crowd - there’s nothing like it. I plan to bring you something Emotional and exciting! I’m a brand new me!'

On tour: Alicia is due to perform at a series of show in the UK from May of next year
