Hi, i'm new to this Soompi forums...

I don't know if there's any thread like this...

Hopefully, I just notice the Aaliyah movie will be out sometimes next year (2010) because they're already started filming. The movie starring Keshia Chante, she's playing Aaliyah. The movie production will also be include Missy Elliott, Timbaland, Ginuwine and some other singers/actors to be in the film as well. They're also re-creating a music video for "Rock The Boat". I can't wait to see the movie.

I really don't understand this.
Aaliyah did nothing for the music industry imo D:

^She is legendary in her own right. She was a role model and a great singer to a lot of people. Many young girls looked up to her! Where I'm from, Aaliyah was big when I was growing up and her death was a tragedy.

Same. I loved her music, but she didn't become a legend until she died. Still I think if she was still alive and making music, she would be in the same circle as Beyonce.

Regardless, I'm not interested in this movie. Why? I don't enjoy crying so I won't watch a movie when I know how sad the ending will be.

Thank you!

Aaliyah has done enough for the industry and she was an amazing role model for us young girls
she (Along with TLC) taught me that you don't have to dress sexy and to sell.
Aallyah is another angel that god called home, I Michael gives her a hug <3

bittersweet but mainly sad ): her death made me feel so depressed ):

you youngsters would never understand Aaliyah especially those that are under 20's. (well not all, my sister is 18 and she is a huge aaliyah fan)

She made a difference in the music industry and her voice is indeed one of a kind. And in her videos, she doesn't go over the top sexy and she makes it her unique style.

One of my favorite music videos has got to be "We Need A Resolution"/Are You That Somebody and the old schools "One in a Million"/If Your Girl Only Knew

edit:

anyways, i hope the actress who plays aaliyah does a good job. I'll be looking forward watching this film.

^ those were my favorite jams too : )


To say Aaliyah made no contribution to the music industry is really just
Respect..as an artist, she deserves that much at least.

I like the idea of a movie. Sometimes it's just good to know you're not the only one who still remembers..

(Just watched Queen of the Damned a few days ago..she really was a gorgeous girl. I think she was that role model for many of the black females(teens or not) growing up in the 90's..I know she was for me : )


If at first you don't succeed..
dust yourself off and try again...

That's been my motto for life.

@ LucasBunny ~ boy oh boy do I miss me some TLC..
Waterfalls and Unpretty were always my favorites..

[Myss Blewm]

Wow...I just hope the film doesn't come with cheesy lines and semi-poor acting.

She was someone a lot of girls looked up to. She wasn't overtly sexy, and her music was really catchy. Girls of all races and social classes liked her, and I think that's something really positive.

No that's not true. She might not be considered one of the greatest of all time but she's definitely important.
Also, she had a pretty interesting personal life that I think would make for a good movie.

@KuYA II i'm under 20, 18 to be exact and I have much respect for Aaliyah.

I can't wait for this movie, but it took forever..

I remember those days, when I lived with my cousin for a while we would watch Aaliyah on TV but whenever her mom came down she switched the channel (aunt is racist) well anywho, what I mean is Aaliyah was someone amazing & overall agree with Myss Blewm

[MizzprEEETy]

Really? This should be interesting=] OMG Keshia Chante really remind me of Aaliyah...they did a great job picking her for the role=] i'm excited.

you're right, i love aaliyah esp. her dance moves and soothing voice... you have ciara, and beyonce in your generation well we had aaliyah in ours. if she didnt died she wouldve been much bigger and brighter

[myluckyself]

funny, I'm 16 and I luv Aaliyah's music just as much as you guys do!

I can't wait to see the movie... but I bet it will be sad =[

[x Sim pli city x]

i think Aaliyah did made differences with her music, a lot girls looked up to her as a role model. she may not make a big difference like other people, but during her time, she have a lot of girls listening to her and inspire by her. i was really shocked and saddened by her sudden death. im glad someone making a movie about her life, always loved her song "try again" such a pull-you-up-on-your-feet- song.

Agree! Aaliyah is my favorite. This generation music some likes what not. Still my favorite out of r&b music.
She works hard on her part! She graduated high school & college. She chose her path and succeeded her dream of becoming a singer artist and went more becoming an actress. Romeo Must Die. Queen of the Damned. The Matrix but got replaced after her death. 'Honey' supposed to be her role character.
