Alicia Keys to sing James Bond theme?

Singer appears to be the front-runner for the job

Alicia Keys is the latest in a long line of artists who may get a crack at singing the title song for the next James Bond film.

Previously, Duran Duran, Duffy, Jack White and Beyonce were rumoured to be among the contenders vying for the opportunity, as well as Amy Winehouse, who reportedly ceased working on the song with producer Mark Ronson because of her erratic behaviour.

Now a source has told E! Entertainment that Keys appears to be the first choice of producers of 'Quantum Of Solace'.

The film, which is due out in November, will star Daniel Craig in the title role once again.
