I can't believe this! I first saw this posted on a private listserv & was like "THAT'S NOT TRUE!" Then, when I went to Yahoo! I got an instant headache. My God! Well, I pray that she is in the Hands of The Father, & I pray that He will comfort & hold up her family, friends, and fans who are sure to be affected by this loss (as is evident by this thread). I also pray the same prayer for the others that were lost or injured along with Aaliyah. She will truly be missed.

Soror, Sisterfriends, and others. . .

Please keep Aaliyah's family and friends in your prayers, they are going through a hard time right now and need all the strength they can possibly have to get through this. I just recieved word this morning about the crash and I am on my way home back to Detroit in the morning. She was a very sweet person to know. She will be truley missed by all.

If I'm not mistaken when she was on TRL to support the latest CD, she mentioned that they had finished the Matrix 2 and was going to start shooting the Matrix 3, or had done so.

She was slated to play Sparkle in the remake of the movie, Sparkle.

"Aaliyah will return to Australia to play the character Zee in sequels to "The Matrix" sometime this month, though she is not scheduled to film her scenes until mid-April. She'll likely be on the set until early summer.
"Queen of the Damned" should be out by October, while "The Matrix 2" is due in the summer of 2002."

Wow I can't believe it. I saw it on MTV a couple a minutes ago. The plane was in horrible shape. I am such a big fan of hers! I just bought her new cd a couple of weeks ago and I haven't had the chance to listen to it yet. I work at an electronic store that sells music and we have a loop tape that shows various of videos, and one of the videos is Aaliyah's "We need a Resolution". It is going to be hard to look at that video. Dang, I really can't believe it. She is just a year older than me and it seems as though I have known her for years. This should show everyone that we should not take our lives and loved ones for granted. Aaliyah will be missed .

Unhappy daym

All i can say is daymn... i'd been followin the progress of the Queen of the Damned project, which is a sequel to Interview with a Vampire for thoes who never heard of it, maaaaan this is just a sad sad thing and my prayers go out to her family and loved ones because sudden deaths are terrible to deal with, and her death is a tragedy in itself, she had so much potential she was just beginning to turn up her exponential curve of success, holdin down so many big projects/roles at the same time... daym

Such a sad day.
I was reading my old JET magazines all day yesterday, I fell asleep last night in the middle of the one with Aaliyah on the cover. I could not believe it when I heard the terrible news this morning. How Ironic? I wish her family and friends much strength as they mourn the loss of this star that was taken much too soon.

So Sad. I was shocked when they announced it in church today. She was so brilliant (4.0 student), so talented, and so beautiful. This is proof that you just never know when your time will come. I truly pray that she is with the Father. I also pray for peace & for her family.

this whole thing is just so shocking to me...I remember last night watching the 10 pm news, and they reported a plane going down off of Abaco Island(I live in south florida)...the idea of Aaliyah being on the plane was the furthest thing from my mind. It just made me realize how life can be snatched from you at any given moment...and that we are all here for a purpose.

My condolences go to the families of all who were on board.

This is definitely sad to hear....I remember when Aaliyah first came out and I was definitely a huge fan of hers....however a few years ago I stopped listening to secular music so I really am not up-to-date- with the latest hits....I'm praying that her family be at peace as well as those who were accompanying her families.

May His peace be with you till we meet again

Like many of you here, I was a huge fan of hers. Been there since the begining. I have been hearing rumors about her newest album comming out since 1998, and I was so happy when she finally came back on the scene. But now this...I don't think I have any words about it except that this feels like a personal loss, as odd as that sounds. I've only met her once and she was extremely sweet, but she was a huge inspiration to me as far as the entertainment business goes. Condolences to the families of everyone on the flight.

For we know not the day nor the hour......that He will return for us!!

We are only gifts from God and to Him must we return for judgment.

My prayers are for all the families who lost a loved one on that airplane.

We can give all reasons and make all excuses as to why people don't need to die - But when GOD calls you - the question is.... will you be ready??

Death shows no discrmination to age, race, color or religion and everyone has a reservation without the privilege of cancellation!!

I am not saying this to be harsh - but to put in reality.....it's a part of life. It is a part of life that we know that has to happen and no one and I mean NO ONE is immuned from the feeling of a loss. But I can truly say - He will not put more on us than we can bear -For one day I too will trade this lifetime for just one day in Paradise!!

This is a shame, and I so enjoyed seeing her on Diary on MTV. Someone told me, bad things always seem to happen when someone begins documenting anothers life. But, she did say she has accomplished everything she wanted and is enjoying life now. So I figure she has done her duty on earth and it was now her time. .

And you know what?

I was thinking this reminds about the movie "Final Destination"... remember the guy on Aaliyah's plane that survived but later died as he was waiting to be trasported. The same thing kinda happend in that movie. I guess when it's your time, it's your time.

I was thinking about the same movie. I was wondering if Missy and whoever else was on the island for the shoot were supposed to be on the plane. That movie was disturbing, to say the least, but it was the first thing that popped into my mind when I heard that they were all down there.

This is the second celebrity death to affect me this way (2pac being the first). I have been in a blue mood since the club Saturday night. It really is unbelievable. So young, so pretty, so talented. *sigh* It's just so sad. I was a fan of hers. She was just coming into her own, y'know, modeling, acting. More than just singing. It is just so sad.

It made me be completely honest with those people around me with whom I hide my feelings. Life is too short. Too short.

I still can't believe it. Life truely is short. We just have to be grateful of everyday that God allows us on this earth. I'm just glad that her brother wasn't with her, I know that they were really tight. I guess all we can do now is remember her for the person she was and send many prayers to her family and close friends.
