I want this doll so bad! I loved Aaliyah growing up. A beautiful soul gone too soon. One of my favorite songs was a cover she did for the Anastasia movie (a movie I watched over and over as a kid) Journey to the Past. Such a beautiful voice! I loved her style as well. She would have been amazing today with a strong career. Rest in peace 🕊️
Ahhhh I hope you get her!!! Her journey to the past is soooo good!!! She had the voice of an angel. I so wish we could’ve seen her today. May she rest in peace. Xoxo
@@ronWalton-z2l I don't know who on earth aalliah is but 'AALIYAH' doesn't have anything to do with what you are talking about. Stop spreading nonsense. We are celebrating this beautiful tribute doll, honouring an Iconic woman.
Love this!! I was waiting for your review and love how you fixed her up. Your doll seems to have more prominent/darker lip liner and also has layers in her hair. I believe not all of them do (one of mine does and one doesn't). I can't begin to explain how exciting it was to be part of this project. Working closely alongside Aaliyah's Brother Rashad, (who I have built a relationship with over the years) and helping him on creative direction was truly one of my fave experiences I've had in my career thus far. I have so much love and respect for Aaliyah and all that she accomplished. She was the perfect partnership for Barbie, and it's surreal to even hold her doll in my hands. I requested she have her beauty mark near her brow. Details like that just add that extra touch and it's something fans of her will appreciate 🖤
I am sooooo blown away by this doll, truly! you all did an amazing job on this doll. please keep making more and more beautiful dolls like Aaliyah! Im so honored you like the little hair fix up. it is a fun little ritual I like to do with all my dolls :) xoxox and I love her lips so so much. and the hair cut.
Terry!!!! I hope you're doing amazing. i remember being young and so sad and confused about her passing :( I am so happy to own her forever in my collection. xoxox
@@dolls2remember people need to stop worshipping celebrities....aalliah was part of the diddy group...just saying...has the election not taught people anything
Before the doll came out I remember seeing a fan make there own Aaliyah Barbie doll they did the Rock The Boat Jean outfit, Try Again outfit, We Need A Resolution black dress, the anime outfit, and 4 Page Letter sliver outfit & black outfit,
Wow you know so many of her songs!! I agree with your other outfit choices and I would also like the white outfit in One in a Million. It made her skin and hair POP! But the one we got makes sense due to it having a more interesting intricate design.
Love it!, I can't wait to get my own! I loved Try Again, I wish I could remember more of her songs but her movies were great, especially when she played Queen Akasha, in the Queen the of the Damned
Another great job Grant. i admit I am somewhat afraid to unbox a doll and do the many things that you do to make them even better! I really like this style and I agree with you. She definitely is one of the very top celebrity dolls!
Hello Grant, oh wow your review was amazing. You are always so detailed with explaining things, and so helpful. The Aaliyah doll is so so stunning, I love her outfit, and I agree with you, Mattel should make Aaliyahs fashion packs, people would buy them up, just like they bought the doll up. Yes a mic would be super cute for her, I love how you gave her some tender loving care, her hair turned out beautiful, and my oh my she is a beautiful doll, congratulations on all your new growth on your channel, your channel is always fun and wonderful to watch, I play Aaliyah's music a lot, One and A million is one of my favorite songs, are you that someboby, try again, more than a woman, I just love her music, she was so smooth and had so much swag, such a beautiful talented young lady, she is so missed and loved, great video❤
Omg, I love her doll and your restyle / Video ❤❤❤. Might need her😅 .I'm a huge Aaliyah Fan and loved her movies as well,especially Queen of the damned🥰. For the Songs: I got a lot of favourites but Rock the boat is one of them - sad that it was that music Video where it happened😢
OMG, I almost fainted when you suggested a wardrobe set from the extended “Woooooooooooooooow” 🥺🥺🥺 And daydream mode I went into. I was imagining a Tommy Hilfiger or Queen of the Damned outfit
Hello My Friend,You did an amazing job on your doll,you really personalized and perfected her to be spot on with how Aaliyah looked! Great attention to detail! I agree hopefully they give us more Look from Aaliyah but if not I'm definitely gonna create customs but that's so much for sharing your technique and for always blessing us with great content. Let's have an Awsome 2025 continue the great work Friend! God Bless❤🙏
Aaliyah was such a talented singer and actress. A beautiful soul taken too soon. If I had the doll I would dress her up as Queen of the Damned ( Aaliyah last acting role )
I love Aaliyah ❤❤❤❤she’s so beautiful and pretty doll 2remember I like her music too all her albums one in a million and rock the boat is my favorite song too.
🎉❤🎉wow what a beautiful barbie. I do actually like your hairdos grant. Come do my dolls hair😊I don't have patience 😂The dolls you been showing lately are kool especially the chalk hair one. I hope 2025 brings many more videos, and start counting to see how many dolls you get this year 😂😂😂🎉❤🎉XOXO tu AMIGO 😘
If she's close to Looks #15, Wheelchair Barbie with service dog is a Target exclusive. She matches Looks #15 & I used her. I want her on a standard body.
I've not gotten a doll with the sticky stuff on the clothes. I have under clothes and the dolls plastic skin, in which just sticks to the plastic & scratches right off. I guess it's better than T ties ?
more than a woman might be my favorite song but are you that somebody was the first music video i remember being mesmerized by. i thought the dance and her outfits were the coolest things i'd ever seen and honestly, not much has topped it since.
JLo got two dolls because she's part of the producer that's why Mattel released two molds and I heard Mariah Carey as well will be having another doll this year
First off from the man in black 🖤 to need more outfits for all other collectable dolls, just say'n 🤒👽.. anyway she is truly amazing, many of you're friends on utube are doing a segment on this beauty "Aaliyah" from Mattel!! On their channel 😁. Anyway 😉! Luv'n 🤗 k'lyn OXOX
The man that worked on the doll said that they originally planned on using her “Try Again” look but some of the designers she had on are now defunct & they didn’t want any legal issues.
Hehe that was me on X. I was talking about the "Are You That Somebody?" look where she's wearing a choker. 'Try Again' also would have been complicated due to it being a Dolce & Gabbana piece.

hahahah doesn't she look amazing! hahaha I try to be FAST with the checkout process! I got lucky! xoxo I think she will restock soon hopefully!!! xoxo
What an amazing doll! One of the best celebrity faces I’ve seen in a Barbie, if not THE best. Such an incredibly cool vibe!
She is one of the most gorgeous celebrity dolls I have seen. And as always, your spa treatments made her even more stunning.
My favorite Aaliyah song is the the Hot Like Fire Remix. Excited for my doll to arrive!
omg soooo good! yay im so excited for you!
I got her too! She is STUNNING! I can't wait until mine arrives! Been an Aaliyah fan since I was a kid! 🥰
Great Review ‼ They really did amazing with the likeness of Aaliyah
Wow you know so many of her songs!! I agree with your other outfit choices and I would also like the white outfit in One in a Million. It made her skin and hair POP! But the one we got makes sense due to it having a more interesting intricate design.
Omg I can't wait to get one. Unfortunately, it's already sold out 😢 I have patience great video the doll is Amazing, I love the bang too😊

I use to LOVE the bow cds!!! Hahahah isn’t she amazing! Thank you so much xoxo
Favorite Aaliyah songs: Don't know what to tell ya.
&
Hot like fire.
I don't understand why doll's hair so wavy...Aaliyah's hair in her videos were super straight and silky.
She looks so good the ate with the face sculpt
Aaliyah's doll is so beautiful just like her 🙏🏼
Another great job Grant. i admit I am somewhat afraid to unbox a doll and do the many things that you do to make them even better! I really like this style and I agree with you. She definitely is one of the very top celebrity dolls!
She's gorgeous my favorite female artist
You doing her hair at the end reminded me of when Eric was doing her hair on her Diary episode. 😢🙂
I didn’t even know there was an Aaliyah Barbie! So excited for this unboxing.
To bad Mattel and doll collecters failed to promot it before scalpers end up buying them all
OMG!!! I love the Aaliyah doll I’m hoping to get one on the 26th!!! In the meantime I Need you as my hair stylist!!!
Someone should make Aaliyah as Queen Akasha.
I love all her music huge Aaliyah fan
She looks amazing and I love her outfit!!
Love Aaliyah
This was iconic! Mine came in today! 🤩🤩🤩
My favorite Aaliyah songs: Erica Kane & Extra Smooth
Indeed
You need to get the Kylie Minogue dolls!
She is so Gorgeous
Me and my two sisters were on a plane from Georgia back to Michigan
When we heard that she passed away on the radio.
I’m a Michigander too
I think Mattel did right by Aaliyah. It's been over due time for her doll to come out. Thank you for sharing!❤

Absolutely beautiful,she matches my skin tone ❤🥰
Endlessly jealous! I didn't make it with the first release, hoping I'll make it when they come back in stock.
She is stunning and your review is amazing ✨💖✨
omg it would be so cool to see you make a dress out of all the certificate of authenticity all your dolls come with!
OMG yes !! I could scan them onto some fabric! that is brilliant!
Omg, I love her doll and your restyle / Video ❤❤❤. Might need her😅 .I'm a huge Aaliyah Fan and loved her movies as well,especially Queen of the damned🥰. For the Songs: I got a lot of favourites but Rock the boat is one of them - sad that it was that music Video where it happened😢

Can you believe back and forth she was only 14!
Were you able to fix the arm ?
The only thing that would have improved this absolutely goreng doll....is a made to move body. She is stunning!!
Completely agree!!!!!
Thank you for doing Aaliyah's hair...she would never approve of that weird wavy look...that was the only thing bothering me about the doll.

probably one of the most gorgeous face sculpts. she short of resembles Selena.
It’s Aaliyah but you say it Ahh liyah

OMG, she's pretty! But I think she's given a wrong body, Mattel should have given her a Made to Move Body, she's a dancer!
