She was killed in a plane crash in the bahamas there was obviously a problem with the plane she was shooting a video and i think her brother died too at least thats what my sources tell me! Man im really bummed about this i really likes this womens work. So this thread is an official tribute to her ok

R.I.P

Yeah, I heard about it last night..a very sad thing..She was really quite talented..

hmmm she played in Romeo must die right?

Yeah she did!

I'd heard the name but can't remember what she looks like. It's sad anyway.

It's sad, I wasn't really a fan of her or her music, but I do know that she was a great role model to many young teenagers. It's really horrible. Just a couple months ago I was watching a entertainment program, and they were predicting that Aaliyah was going to be the next Whitney Houston, and that her careear was just about to really take off. She even had a small part in Matrix Reloaded, I wonder what's going to happen now

It is a shame because she had just finished shooting the video for her new single and now she will never get to hear it play. That's such a shame. So much wasted talent! I heard when I got up for work this morning and couldn't believe it. I hate it when these tradgedies happen!

The most tragic thing is that she was only 22.

Her plane crashed only 200 ft from the end of the runway. It hit the ground and blew up. Sources say she died instanly. What I can't believe is that there was a survivor.

I read about this early this morning, it was very saddening.

Apparently the Cesna crashed just after takeoff, yards from the end of the runway and with a full load of fuel and just went up like a roman candle.

All on board, bar one were killed almost instantly. * were killed, not sure about the ninth but as someone has now said 9 died I assume the ninth person must have died later.

What I heard was that three people were hospitalized, but died from their injuries..

RIP Girl, we'll miss you....

Its a shame

I just heard that the plane crashed because it was overloaded with film equipment.

The pilot even knew that the plane was overloaded because the people who had to load all of Aaliyah's stuff told him.

what I have heard is that he informed some of the others, and told them to move some of the people over to another plane, but they figured out that they wouldn't want to waste time and money on it. tragical and stupid, if it's true.
