I still remember the day she died. I was watching the news at night and when I heard it I was so shocked and sad.. then I called my best friend at the time and told her and she couldn't believe it. Tragedy.
My favourite song by her is Miss You. I love the video too.
Did you guys know she was secretly married to R. Kelly when she was only 15?! I find it so hard to believe (well, not him really -- he comes off as a pervy skeev).
I love Aaliyah. My favorite songs are "One In A Million" and "More Than A Woman". She was different than other R&B artists, more inspiring, and talented than many.
The director for the new Aaliyah biopic are doing extensive research for the little lookalike, Keisha Chante:
Fans anticipating R&B singer/actress Aaliyah’s forthcoming biopic can rest assured that the film is going to be as seamless as Jennifer Lopez’s praised role in Selena. According to Bill Condon, the director for the as-yet-untitled pic and famed director of the hit film ‘Dreamgirls’ starring Jennifer Hudson, Beyonce Knowles and Jamie Foxx, Aaliyah’s biopic and its cast are studying hard to make sure the pic is up to par. “We are going to great extremities to make this movie perfect. We have (Keisha) Chante in extensive… …training studying, speaking with family members, watching personal footage and in choreography training with Aaliyah’s choreographer and dear friend Fatima Robinson. This movie will will be seamless the same way it was for Selena fans who enjoyed Jennifer Lopez.” In addition to Keisha Chante, who has been cast as Aaliyah, the “One In A Million” singer’s choreographer Fatima Robinson, Timbaland, Ginuwine, and Missy Elliott are to be featured in the film. “Rock The Boat” music video director Hype Williams has also been tapped for the film to recreate Aaliyah’s final video shoot.
Sources close to the much-anticipated film say they’ll be “going deep into Aaliyah’s life”.
^ I read that information on a blog couple days ago.
I'm so happy to see Keshia playing Aaliyah. She look like her alot, I don't think they could of pick a better girl than her.
