A 16-year-old with a double platinum record. In the 90's before you could go platinum off of internet streams and Compact Discs were upwards of $15. Truly a gifted artist.
Rudy Ray yeah ngl I’m 21 and my body looks like hers when she was 16. and also her body didn’t change much either she wasn’t ever curvy and she always had a small chest
Litalici0us shes still a pretty girl and men will be men .. Most men are attracted to young girls and dont admit it ..the scary thing is there are many r kellys out there ..I remember old men approaching me all the time and still do .
She was definitely a beautiful soul🙌.. My name is Aaliyah but I spell it ALIEA , my father's name was AL. it means to honor or to have honor.. I cried like a baby when I found out she passed away😖I never wanted to be like her but I did dress like her and wore my hair the same way with a scarf bandana the same way she did, before I even heard of her... I remember when R Kelly made that song VIBE, people kept coming up to me asking was he talking about me in the song, when he said little cute Alia got it 🤣😂 . Also Beyonce is born the same day as me 9/4..go figure 😌
The fact grown adults so boldly asked a child in interviews if she were married or not knowing she wasn’t even old enough to be legally married is equally disgusting. No one took the situation seriously. Although the music was great, this period in her life just seems so dark. She was a child. An innocent child taken advantage of by a grown man. It seems a lot of adults failed her. It’s especially heartbreaking when it’s family. I hope Aaliyah healed from all of this trauma before her passing.
And then said now that we’ve broken y’all hearts. Like people wanted Aaliyah to be married to that grown ass man like it was normal! I was like did this fool really just say that
@@naturalimmunity7007 Lord learn the meaning of words before you use them. “Obsolete” doesn’t fit the context of your sentence. Furthermore, I never said she wasn’t married or she lied about being married, so what are you even talking about! You should practice reading comprehension.
@@kjb3d you're mad because you look dumb saying what you said. Dont throw rock and hide your hands now, lol. He asked her a legitimate question because IT HAPPENED. He knew it just like everybody else aside from you apparently. So yeah you get a fat F for this bs
Aaliyah and I was the same age when this happened and the era was "Age ain't nothing but a number" I was 15 and was courted by older dudes in the community. Thinking I was older as well as carrying myself older. However, when I look back and think back. I was sooo immature in so many different ways. I was Naive and easily impressed. I had both my parents and they didn't know half the shit I did.. I do believe these grown men KNEW better and myself as a young woman was oblivious to the fact i was being used and not loved like I thought
Girl alot of us...my parents didn't let me party or sleep out but boy when i found the time i did me!! And niggas was older so i think we should stop acting like she was innocent.
Christina coles I agree ☝️ the only thing that is disturbing is RKelly’s abusive actions he committed n he still is.... because let’s be real he is 52, n he still after these young girls.
Ebony_Love_R_007 because are RKellys mentality is of a 19year old n thinks he ain’t doing no wrong. This man is mentally ill but gifted to music. Sad but true
You can tell Aaliyah was NOT a confrontational type of young lady. I love her response when asked about the shade Brandy through at her. This is how EVERY female entertainer should respond to irrelevant drama in the industry!! Not create diss tracks, attacking each other and threatening to hurt/kill one another. Most female entertainers today have no genuine self worth or confidence which is why they thrive off of pulling each other down.🤦🙄
@Not My KinFolk excuse me don't disrespect my craft I am a battle rapper on my personal acc .... we stand on stages coming at niggas heads with written bars not lyrics on a track..... diss tracks are a form of beef between two niggas who cannot fight usually and also it's keep them relevant if they continue to go back and forth like tupac biggie ...or Bay Area CA rappers Philthy Rich and Cash Money Lavish D .... Battle rap is a art with set up opponent not many people can do it!!
She was 15 telling other girls that age ain’t nothing but a number. Asking other Young Girls how many of y’all agree with me? While having Grown Men dancing in the Background. This whole shit is Cringy. Even when she said she’s single and he said “Ohhh Now” now you got our interest 🤦🏽♂️
Rosa Lee She kept it so simple, soft and sweet. She didnt wear weaves and very little makeup. She was naturally confident with her body and looks. #OneInAMillion
She actually admitted her age, unlike in other interviews. Her birthday is coming up in a few days and all of this controversy behind this R. Kelly documentary is sad
Not a lil... overly sexualized! She looked mature for age hence for some reason we didn't see nothing wrong with the lyrics to her songs. But yeah what teenage child isn't naive and impressionable?! I don't know what she was spose to wear but I don't think it mattered what she wore because regardless, she had that mature look about her. 🤷🏽♀️
I was impressed with how Aaliyah handled the question regarding the comment that brandy said about her. Aaliyah was very mature for her age. She was so well grounded. I am thankful for her music , movies, and videos posted on RUclips to keep her legacy alive. We love and miss you Aaliyah!❤️
shan rodriguez technically she didn’t lie. She said she wasn’t A. Kelly, which was probably true at that point since her parents had the marriage annulled.
@@kellil8678 she did if you listen she denied "all" rumors..and truth is she was with him at some point of those rumors and she just was turning 16 technically in this she's 15 still
❤❤Gorgeous woman. She said it herself that her family is always with her. Her father is her manager and even her mother and her brother is there during this interview. So my question is how did R.Kelly get close to her without her parents consent? Because he had full consent.
@@cryingintomygreentea8145 I'm not defending him ik he's a fucking sicko I'm defending Aaliyah! She said non of it was true and that marriage certificate was fake!!! I'm only believing her not anyone else and tbh a few of those people in that documentary was caught lying!
Her father became her manager AFTER the marriage, she got married at 15 do you know it’s her 16th birthday in this interview?? THATS when they started to be around at all times
Clearly you don't understand recording in a studio straight they the night. Obviously you're not aware that her mother's brother, her uncle... was always R.Kelly's manager... and Gladys Knights manager... So they knew who & what R.Kelly was. And no they were not around her 24/7 when she was with R.Kelly. DUH!
I also like the way Aaliyah handled that question about Brandy. Aaliyah was a nicer person that Brandy because she never talked bad about anyone. Truly an angel on earth and an angel in heaven.
Her music will be released on streaming services too soon..like that's weird to go from not allowing us to buy/download her music to suddenly we can with this whole scandal.
These videos always been available... her videos his as well...interviews have never been covered up.. the industry is very very sick...they want to rehash her energy... look at the political ppl...they are pedophiles
This vid was particularly tough to watch, especially seeing her parents there looking very proud of her not knowing the despair that awaited them! Its just too sad what happens in life sometimes.
Marilyn King Barry Hankerson owns his music catalog. He’s making all the money that’s why his houses are in foreclosure. The only money he’s making is from the tours. Nothing off his music!!
@@marilynking3350 you're talking way too much bs. We're ALL Aaliyah fans too, but we're not in denial like yourself. It's disheartening yea but truth always comes out.
She was so sweet and young and had all those predators around her. She only had a short time on earth. The R Kelly chapter never should have been a part of her life.
Other than she and Monica, who else? Rem said it at a recent concert: how [they'll] pit women against women, girl against girl in the Industry, to drive news, dissension. Even #Tyra has said [this] to #Naomi, in their famed sit-down interview. At times [it's] not really what it seems on the surface.
HTHTV3 that’s not true, Brandy used to have a lot to say about girls that were more out there with how they dressed. Aaliyah showed her midriff. She also said negative things about Foxy Brown at the time because she also dress provocative and they were all around the same age
Brandy was always beefing with somebody! Aaliyah handled that question like a beautiful professional. I’m so proud how she answered that, no shade or sweat given. Though Brandy did give props to Aaliyah later in life, I’m sure she regrets saying the things she said.
@@s0saaaaa222 brandy said something about the midriffs aaliyah basically saying aaliyah style was too mature and her mom would never let her dress that way
I never look at Aaliyah and thought of RK! I loved her voice her beauty and her strength. I remember when I first got her tape. I told my mom I want my hair cut like hers. The face framing layers I had to have but never looked as good as hers. She was a beautiful and talented young Woman who we lost way to early. She wrote it best she was "One and A Million"!🙏
This breaks my heart. Even though she's smiling there's a sadness in her eyes. She's been let down by people who were supposed to protect her. God rest her soul. 🙏🏼❤
Aaliyah looked and acted older than her age. Not saying it was intentional, but the industry makes you grow up real quick; the environment, the outfits, etc. On the other hand, you can still see the youth and naivety. I loved Aaliyah and always will. RIP baby girl and her father. ❤️
She might as well should've, since she knew she was going to die, anyway. I did read somewhere that someone said that Aaliyah was killed, so she wouldn't go public, & then rhe industry kept quiet, so they wouldn't look suspicious. They "cleverly" waited almost a year after her death to come out with the R. Kelly sex tape thing, which I heard that Barry Hankerson secretly had leaked.
Timberland was attracted to her as well and wanted to be with her too he admitted he ended up marrying a woman that looks so much like her just because she looked like Aaliyah
REAL FUNNY YOU POSTED THIS BECAUSE YOUR THE SAME ONE WHO GOT ON ME FOR POSTING RE-POSTING THE COUNT DOWN GROVE VIDEO AND i SAW THAT COMMENT YOU WROTE TO THE ORGINAL USER ABOUT ME STEALING IT AND HERE YOU GO RE-POSTING THIS AFTER TWO PEOPLE ALREADY POSTED THIS ME AND THE AALIYAH CHANNEL. REAL REAL PHONY LMAO(BUT YOU STILL AN AALIYAH FAN SO I GOTTA LOVE YOU LOL.
I want that outfit in the first video but I just wanna say Aaliyah is a very inspirational person to me she makes me wanna go after my singing career fr and I’m 15 and she started in the industry at like 12 but got popular at 14/15 so I definitely still have a chance I will come back to this comment once I’ve done it!
She didn't get surgery...she just grew into her adult face...she looks just as beautiful at 16, and you can tell she got her looks and mannerisms from her mother 😄
I love Aaliyah just as much as anyone else, but she clearly had a nose job towards the end of her career. Just look at all more recent pics before she passed. The bridge of her nose is was slightly different & her nose was narrower.
I just can’t imagine her today with all the controversy and social media and Twitter and stuff. But loved her as an artist and Kelly didn’t have her best interest at heart Timbaland saved her career. She shouldn’t be judged. Many of us were pretentious youths. I had a child by someone who was 8 years older than me and I was 15. As I got older I got wiser. Learn from you’re past to make a better future. Aaliyah would have been turning 40 this month if I’m not mistaken. She really is missed. One of my favorite female artists ever on the planet. Very sultry dancer
I named my daughter after Aaliyah being that I was pregnant with her when she died, my absolute favorite artist during that time... & it’s interesting that my daughter Aaliyah is musically inclined 😊
I feel like one of the main reasons she NEVERR wanted to say her age was because she knew she was doing some stuff with R kelly she wasn’t supposed to and was doing stuff so young she wasn’t supposed to because she wanted to keep portraying the “Older” image so when she sung her songs or did the stuff she did the public wouldn’t look at her like “ooh that’s a little girl she’s young “ we knew how old she was but without her actually saying it people kept it out their mind.
this whole surviving R Kelly documentary series got me wishing that Aaliyah actually came out and told people how much of a bad person he was instead of just sharing little hints that he's a bad guy to her boyfriend knowing damn well he was not going to share that to anybody, just to not upset her. I almost want to be mad at her but at the same time she was scared like all these other teenagers but I almost wish that these teenagers, while it's happening, to actually come out and tell people because all we doing is allowing these perverts to roam free and ruin everybody else lives.
R Kelly was being negative after the rumours came out R Kelly tried to get with her but Aaliyah didn't want that and that's why she told Damon he's a bad man
At 8:39 Aaliyah got really nervous when he asked her parents how they feel. She eased up when he was more specific asking how they feel about her career. Nevertheless, rest peacefully queen 💗✨
@@classicstorm clearly not and look at the overall revelation today. I don’t view things through rose colored glasses - that’s low vibrational. All in all, rest peacefully A. 💗
Aaliyah was my favourite artist when I was in my teens and i am now in my mid 30s. Looking back, I see that the title of her 1st album was highly innappropriate, and her duets with R Kelly on songs like Summer Bunny and your bodys callin were just wrong.
This is the only time I remember mom and dad together with her should've been more United Rashad. Has a sweet energy too he looked up too his baby sister so sweet he just adored her and you can see how he lit up she really gave birth too two earth angels and that is rare gem
This is what always made me like her. On her Rock the Boat Interview just before she died and here. She was very sweet, personable and so mature. Every time I think she's gone so prematurely ...😢😢
the good news is how people who knew her said how much they really liked her and thought she was kind and nice to be around... the bad news is how her parents pretended to protect her and still lie about it to this day...
3:18 Tbh with everything that she must have gone through, i wonder how she was able to sit here and pretend with such ease that it was all ok when answering all the questions about R. Kelly, especially in this one when she was still very young, she gives such a laid back answer. Maybe her mind was able to block it all in order to cope with it. I wonder if she received therapy.
Being someone that lost her virginity to my own “R Kelly” it doesn’t work that. The groom you, cultivate you into thinking you’re deciding too, they are very cunning that’s why she lied for him. It takes a lot of cunning manipulation to convince a 15 year old that it’s perfectly normal to be sleeping with someone over twice her age. He trained her. And as I look at her sweet little face it makes me even angrier with that monster.
In an interview she said "I'm a survivor, and I can get through anything, and I have a lot of confidence in that" ... she had to have done some type of therapy to have an outlook like that
People act like EVERY 15 year old is docile and ignorant and has no idea what they're doing. What authoritative text book does that come from? I bet if she had killed somebody they would scream "try her as an adult!". Happens all of the time, especially to Black youth. If they're the victim of a crime, they didn't know what they were doing: if they're the perpetrators, then they knew right from wrong. Facts!
At first I didnt want to believe the rumors but I see it in this interview. 3:20 she is talking about the R kelly marriage rumor being false yet you can see a marriage ring in 7:45 she covers it and then her parents come in at 8:07 . You can see that her family doesn't care and is very aware of the situation. Its a damn shame plus her father was her manager 6:53 he knew. They all knew and didn't help her.
I'm sorry but I don't jump on cult bandwagons of celebrities who passed. If I see an issue I'm going to speak on it. I don't care who it is. I find it suspect that in every interview she says "a lady doesn't tell her age". That's a rule normally older women follow. What 16 year old says that. It's almost like she didn't want people to know she was actually younger than she was.
@@reginaLPC3566 she never claimed her age is the point of my comment. In every interview she said "a lady doesn't tell her age" which is weird for a child to say unless she's purposely hiding it for reasons she shouldn't. She only turned her age when she turned 16 and that's cause it got out.
Age ain’t nothing but a number.
And Jail ain’t nothing but a place.
Nice 😂😂
Lmfao
😭😭😭😭
Lmao
OK?!!! 😂
A 16-year-old with a double platinum record. In the 90's before you could go platinum off of internet streams and Compact Discs were upwards of $15. Truly a gifted artist.
One in a million
If she was still alive Beyonce would be history
Stephy 😱
She was good but the lack of the internet def was the reason why many artists were successful once they broke out.
This is disturbing for real. A year before this, she married R. Kelly!! 😬😬
If you look at her in this interview she actually looks 15-16
Amirr iam she sure do
Exactly. And they pretend to not know
It was her 16th birthday 🤦🏽♀️
Sweet Sixteen
She sounds like a teenager, a child. You can tell she's not grown.
Let's be real her body figure is of a small teenager.. Mature or not. Folks know the difference between a child and adult
Stfu don't bring this to this video please she is GONE!
And wtf her body was the same size when she died she was always little

Something wrong with all these comments
??? Wake up. Tricksofthestrade who is aliyah. Look it up on you tube. Oh I spell her name wrong I think. Just sharing
Seeing her looking so young makes me wonder even more how can rob the perv could have been attracted by her? Insane
Right. She looks super young in this clip so just imagine how she looked when he FIRST met her. Smh

Crystal Vouse you’re absolutely right! It’s a sad truth!
Yo, im mexicanamerican and Aaliyah's personality reminds me of Selena Quintanilla. Very humble, happy, beautiful, bright, funny women.
Both taken way too soon too love love Selena
Selena's my heart!!!!!! N there personalities r so much alike! I love em both 4 ever!
Girl yes I love Selena I watched home girl until I picked up Spanish good music is just gd music

It seems a lot of adults failed her. It’s especially heartbreaking when it’s family. I hope Aaliyah healed from all of this trauma before her passing.
Why wouldn’t they ask dummy this was around the time the certificate was circulating

Hell brandy was the same age. Singing "I wanna be down". Dating the lead singer, a grown man from Boys to Men. Aaliyah wasn't the only young girl
This was popular in the 90s. You're right. That's why this went by without a huge blow-up.
Let's not forget that Monica was with C-Murder in her teens as well....🤔🤔🤔

This vid was particularly tough to watch, especially seeing her parents there looking very proud of her not knowing the despair that awaited them! Its just too sad what happens in life sometimes.
That performance at the beginning was kinda cringyyyy

She was a new artist what do you expect 🙄
Parents that sold their child to an abuser for money! They should be in Jail!
Sugarbear911...lol.. Go look at my comment I said the same as you. ......just a lil more details...smh..completely agree with you
They said they paid her family 100$ ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS!!! To keep quiet that's stupid asf ik u don't believe that
Yep
Marilyn King Barry Hankerson owns his music catalog. He’s making all the money that’s why his houses are in foreclosure. The only money he’s making is from the tours. Nothing off his music!!
SUGARBEAR911 this is a typical practice in Hollywood very common practice with all young ppl and parents in Hollywood
Wait brandy threw shade? Yes I am mad 20 plus years later.
Ambi Nicole me too lol
Yeah I shocked
Sasha Hill pretty sure we were joking but given the fact that brandy seems to be the queen of shady boots yeah I’m mad about it! Thank you, next!
Ambi Nicole right guess she was throwin it at everybody
Brandy just said her image was way too mature for her age.
5:51-6:15 that squeal and child-like innocence 😍😍😍
I will forever love her goofy, shy self
Eternally missed
Eternal is a long time my dude.
I dont care how mature she behave this is a baby that's why we call her baby girl 😭 bless her spirit she truly is missed ❤
This was after the uncle was no longer her manager and after the annulment of the marriage. Her dad became her manager after that mess.
They were never married You idiot and her father was always her manager from day 1
@@marilynking3350 you're talking way too much bs. We're ALL Aaliyah fans too, but we're not in denial like yourself. It's disheartening yea but truth always comes out.
Marilyn King so the leaked marriage license was a lie?

I MISS ALIYAH SO MUCH....SHE WAS OUR BLACK ANGEL....
All angels are black.
YESS
She smiles and is soft spoken just like her mom
The fact that Aaliyah has to clear up being married to r jelly at 15 back then says a lot.
She was so sweet and young and had all those predators around her. She only had a short time on earth. The R Kelly chapter never should have been a part of her life.
It wasn't
Tina's baby I couldn’t agree more!!!
dude i woudve made sure she never went on that plane
I Wonder if this guy still has that shirt❤

Other than she and Monica, who else?
Rem said it at a recent concert: how [they'll] pit women against women, girl against girl in the Industry, to drive news, dissension.
Even #Tyra has said [this] to #Naomi, in their famed sit-down interview.
At times [it's] not really what it seems on the surface.
HTHTV3 that’s not true, Brandy used to have a lot to say about girls that were more out there with how they dressed. Aaliyah showed her midriff. She also said negative things about Foxy Brown at the time because she also dress provocative and they were all around the same age
@@SN-mq4ek don't forget she got into it with countess Vaughn on the set of moesha 😩
She beef with herself because no one pays her any mind...
Will miss you forever beautiful Angel love you Aaliyah.

Exactly such a angel
Brandy was always beefing with somebody! Aaliyah handled that question like a beautiful professional. I’m so proud how she answered that, no shade or sweat given. Though Brandy did give props to Aaliyah later in life, I’m sure she regrets saying the things she said.
Looking back, Brandy was telling the truth. If more people told the truth, these perverted men couldn’t make more victims.
@@wintersantiago2274 what did she say?

She is keeping secrets, you can definetly tell when her parents come out. The eye contact

I never look at Aaliyah and thought of RK! I loved her voice her beauty and her strength. I remember when I first got her tape. I told my mom I want my hair cut like hers. The face framing layers I had to have but never looked as good as hers. She was a beautiful and talented young Woman who we lost way to early. She wrote it best she was "One and A Million"!🙏
Awwe she shouted out SWV
She is everything 😫😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍❤😭😭🙏💗💗💗
This breaks my heart. Even though she's smiling there's a sadness in her eyes. She's been let down by people who were supposed to protect her. God rest her soul. 🙏🏼❤
Aaliyah looked and acted older than her age. Not saying it was intentional, but the industry makes you grow up real quick; the environment, the outfits, etc. On the other hand, you can still see the youth and naivety. I loved Aaliyah and always will. RIP baby girl and her father. ❤️
Beautiful! she really carried herself decent.
I just wonder if she were alive would she be speaking out against him too
She might as well should've, since she knew she was going to die, anyway. I did read somewhere that someone said that Aaliyah was killed, so she wouldn't go public, & then rhe industry kept quiet, so they wouldn't look suspicious. They "cleverly" waited almost a year after her death to come out with the R. Kelly sex tape thing, which I heard that Barry Hankerson secretly had leaked.
@@TargetedCreole82583 hmmm interesting 🤔
No
No
Nope, but her last album is all about her relationship with kelly😩
Timberland was attracted to her as well and wanted to be with her too he admitted he ended up marrying a woman that looks so much like her just because she looked like Aaliyah
Disgusting. I wonder what part Missy played. She was 1/3 of the trio.
U never knew that fake fan
LipstickFoodie they say that Aaliyah was also bisexual... don’t know how true that is though
Madinah Moore is it Natalie La Rose
Imani Alexander BUT He was still attracted to her tho
Aaliyah exudes so much class, even as a teen. Very impressive. Even Mr. Ralph McDaniels is a class-act in his own right. #Pisces, #Capricorn.
Damn she would be 40 next week
Oh wow
January 16th
kobe turner 39
Taraya Moore she’ll be 40, she was born in 79
Her Body Language Got Really Strange When that Question Came up..
Fergie Spoiled and when they showed the ring on the ring finger 😂😂😂😏
No it did not
It did to me owell..
Fergie Spoiled she praying
See the parents came right on the set..they was soaking it all up no kid or teen wants mom n dad Poppin up in yo selfy
Dramatic 90s grinding background!

REAL FUNNY YOU POSTED THIS BECAUSE YOUR THE SAME ONE WHO GOT ON ME FOR POSTING RE-POSTING THE COUNT DOWN GROVE VIDEO AND i SAW THAT COMMENT YOU WROTE TO THE ORGINAL USER ABOUT ME STEALING IT AND HERE YOU GO RE-POSTING THIS AFTER TWO PEOPLE ALREADY POSTED THIS ME AND THE AALIYAH CHANNEL. REAL REAL PHONY LMAO(BUT YOU STILL AN AALIYAH FAN SO I GOTTA LOVE YOU LOL.
this shit funny as hell
ItzzLolaNielly86 you still alive?
This video has a haunting feel to it
Sad that if she only knew at that time she ONLY had 6 years left on this earth....
😔😔😔 I said the same thing
I want that outfit in the first video but I just wanna say Aaliyah is a very inspirational person to me she makes me wanna go after my singing career fr and I’m 15 and she started in the industry at like 12 but got popular at 14/15 so I definitely still have a chance I will come back to this comment once I’ve done it!
She didn't get surgery...she just grew into her adult face...she looks just as beautiful at 16, and you can tell she got her looks and mannerisms from her mother 😄
She had a nose job so her nose could be more narrow at the tip ….now did she need it? umm no she was Naturally beautiful as we can see in those video
@@Destiny1994ish I don't think so, she had her dad's lil narrow nose. Her brother has it too.
I love Aaliyah just as much as anyone else, but she clearly had a nose job towards the end of her career. Just look at all more recent pics before she passed. The bridge of her nose is was slightly different & her nose was narrower.
@@mlizette321 no tf she didn't weirdo
@@heythatslia6595 😂😭😅
I just can’t imagine her today with all the controversy and social media and Twitter and stuff. But loved her as an artist and Kelly didn’t have her best interest at heart Timbaland saved her career. She shouldn’t be judged. Many of us were pretentious youths. I had a child by someone who was 8 years older than me and I was 15. As I got older I got wiser. Learn from you’re past to make a better future. Aaliyah would have been turning 40 this month if I’m not mistaken. She really is missed. One of my favorite female artists ever on the planet. Very sultry dancer
I named my daughter after Aaliyah being that I was pregnant with her when she died, my absolute favorite artist during that time... & it’s interesting that my daughter Aaliyah is musically inclined 😊
RealLife ReflectionsTV that’s beautiful
That's so wonderful...protect your lil angel at all times. I'm hoping her teenage years were nothing like aaliyah's. She needed more protection.
Oh wow! I was pregnant with my Neko when she died. My baby was born 3/16/02. And she also is a musician!!! Singer, piano
I feel like one of the main reasons she NEVERR wanted to say her age was because she knew she was doing some stuff with R kelly she wasn’t supposed to and was doing stuff so young she wasn’t supposed to because she wanted to keep portraying the “Older” image so when she sung her songs or did the stuff she did the public wouldn’t look at her like “ooh that’s a little girl she’s young “ we knew how old she was but without her actually saying it people kept it out their mind.
this whole surviving R Kelly documentary series got me wishing that Aaliyah actually came out and told people how much of a bad person he was instead of just sharing little hints that he's a bad guy to her boyfriend knowing damn well he was not going to share that to anybody, just to not upset her. I almost want to be mad at her but at the same time she was scared like all these other teenagers but I almost wish that these teenagers, while it's happening, to actually come out and tell people because all we doing is allowing these perverts to roam free and ruin everybody else lives.
R Kelly was being negative after the rumours came out R Kelly tried to get with her but Aaliyah didn't want that and that's why she told Damon he's a bad man

Brandy said she was intimidated because aaliyah was so pretty
That's funny because I don't recall there being any beef between her and Brandy🤔
Sasha Hill Exactly which makes me wonder why she's always starting mess with folks.
I did not see brandy
What did Brandy say?
At 8:39 Aaliyah got really nervous when he asked her parents how they feel. She eased up when he was more specific asking how they feel about her career. Nevertheless, rest peacefully queen 💗✨
I've got to watch this again... Frame after frame... Piece by piece 🧩 I gotta take my time and analyze all of the body language 🤓🤨
I know this is four years old but that's you seeing what you want to see she looked normal...
@@classicstorm clearly not and look at the overall revelation today. I don’t view things through rose colored glasses - that’s low vibrational. All in all, rest peacefully A. 💗
@@Fierceness I don't believe in rumors nor do I think I know more about Aaliyahs life than her...
Rest In Peace baby girl! 🙏🏾
Did y’all peep the wedding band?
Beverly Bailey sure did!
how did no one else!?
She covered it as soon as the camera got a close up.
Yes! You can clearly see it on the left hand smh 🤦🏽♀️ it’s small but it’s there
Y'all don't know shit about Aaliyah you dumb bitches her grandmother gave her that ring!!! And R Kelly never gave her a ring
@@MsFlowersCute ^
Aaliyah was my favourite artist when I was in my teens and i am now in my mid 30s. Looking back, I see that the title of her 1st album was highly innappropriate, and her duets with R Kelly on songs like Summer Bunny and your bodys callin were just wrong.
she was such an amazing person i miss her deeply and she deserved so much better🥺 her light is still shining today🥺
This is the only time I remember mom and dad together with her should've been more United Rashad. Has a sweet energy too he looked up too his baby sister so sweet he just adored her and you can see how he lit up she really gave birth too two earth angels and that is rare gem
This is what always made me like her. On her Rock the Boat Interview just before she died and here. She was very sweet, personable and so mature. Every time I think she's gone so prematurely ...😢😢
Rest In Peace to Aaliyah. She was soo mature, wise and well spoken.
Lemme watch this before it gets taken down 🍿❤️
I said the same thing lol
Dude conducted a great interview.
the good news is how people who knew her said how much they really liked her and thought she was kind and nice to be around... the bad news is how her parents pretended to protect her and still lie about it to this day...
Dang. I couldn't even watch the video after I saw her parents standing behind her. My stomach is turning. Poor baby. :(
Aaliyah looked JUST LIKE her mom:-)
3:18 Tbh with everything that she must have gone through, i wonder how she was able to sit here and pretend with such ease that it was all ok when answering all the questions about R. Kelly, especially in this one when she was still very young, she gives such a laid back answer. Maybe her mind was able to block it all in order to cope with it. I wonder if she received therapy.
Being someone that lost her virginity to my own “R Kelly” it doesn’t work that. The groom you, cultivate you into thinking you’re deciding too, they are very cunning that’s why she lied for him. It takes a lot of cunning manipulation to convince a 15 year old that it’s perfectly normal to be sleeping with someone over twice her age. He trained her. And as I look at her sweet little face it makes me even angrier with that monster.
In an interview she said "I'm a survivor, and I can get through anything, and I have a lot of confidence in that" ... she had to have done some type of therapy to have an outlook like that
People act like EVERY 15 year old is docile and ignorant and has no idea what they're doing. What authoritative text book does that come from?
I bet if she had killed somebody they would scream "try her as an adult!". Happens all of the time, especially to Black youth. If they're the victim of a crime, they didn't know what they were doing: if they're the perpetrators, then they knew right from wrong.
Facts!
@@akailapowell or maybe she listened to Destiny's Child "I'm A Survivor" aong a lot, and picked it up from there.
@@akailapowell Not really. Not everyone is weak. Not to say you're weak if you have therapy but people can heal without other people.
At first I didnt want to believe the rumors but I see it in this interview. 3:20 she is talking about the R kelly marriage rumor being false yet you can see a marriage ring in 7:45 she covers it and then her parents come in at 8:07 . You can see that her family doesn't care and is very aware of the situation. Its a damn shame plus her father was her manager 6:53 he knew. They all knew and didn't help her.
Her grandmother gave her that ring dumb ass and they wasn't married
Marilyn King why are you spamming everyone? Who are you?
Courtney Sims she took it off( the ring)
Old school grandmas didn’t let you wear a ring on ya left hand... that’s for marriage 😏
They sold her to R Kelly.
They vicariously lived through her for their failed dreams.
when i first heard about aliyah passing away, i was shocked and wondered why and how coulc she die so soon.
Miss her so much ❤️😍😭😭
I'm sorry but I don't jump on cult bandwagons of celebrities who passed. If I see an issue I'm going to speak on it. I don't care who it is. I find it suspect that in every interview she says "a lady doesn't tell her age". That's a rule normally older women follow. What 16 year old says that. It's almost like she didn't want people to know she was actually younger than she was.
I knew her, played ball against her when she was at Gesu. She was the age she claimed.
@@reginaLPC3566 she never claimed her age is the point of my comment. In every interview she said "a lady doesn't tell her age" which is weird for a child to say unless she's purposely hiding it for reasons she shouldn't. She only turned her age when she turned 16 and that's cause it got out.
@@yesitsher5888 I stop telling my age after I turned 12 , kids can be cruel and pick on you for the simplest thing .
Her laugh is everything ❤
