9 years ago today (August 25th), Aaliyah Dana Haughton, Anthony Dodd, Eric Foreman, Scott Gallin, Keeth Wallace, Gina Smith, Douglas Kratz, Christopher Maldonado, and Luis Morales died tragically in a plane crash that shocked everyone. At the time of the tragic accident, Aaliyah was just 22 years-old.
Below is her video of her MTV Diary which was filmed months before the tragic accident in the Bahamas.
AALIYAH FEATURED ON MTV’S DIARY ’01
RIP Aaliyah!! We miss you!! I so looked up to you! You are so sorely missed! I still remember this day vividly.
R.I.P Aaliyah u r truly miss. Till this day no1 can’t touch her. She was n still is the best.
damn.. still remember exactly where i was when i heard the news of her death…..
RIP Aaliya you are missed
Aaliyah’s spirit still runs through her music. An angel was definitely born on 8/25/01.
R.I.P. Baby girl that was my girl.
I always think about Aaliyah all the time and she really left her mark in R&B, it makes me so sad that she was gone the way that she did, but we gain an angel. Remember, SHE CAN “ROCK OUR BOAT”, SHE CAN SAY” IF YOUR GIRL ONLY KNEW”, WHAT WAS GOING ON, SHE CAN BE YOUR “CHOOSEY LOVER”, SHE CAN MAKE YOU BOUNCE AND “TRY AGAIN”, ALWAYS HAVE THE “LADIES IN THE HOUSE” IN A CLUB, SHE CAN MAKE YOU “BACK AND FORTH” AND WILL ALWAYS “MISS YOU” BABYGIRL R.I.P. AALIYAH 1979-2001.
It’s still heartbreaking. She was so young, beautiful, and talented. It’s so sad to know some details of tht day. The fact she wasn’t supposed to even come back home that day, and the luggage situation. I hate “what if” situations when deaths involved. RIP Aaliyah you’re definately still one of my fav artist and I still listen to your CD’s from time to time and I wish you were still here
Smh RIP Aaliyah.. 9 years already. I remember the day and moment I heard it.. I still barely believe it. It just should not have happened.. there will never be another.
RIP Aaliyah! Your spirit lives on…
Am I really supposed to be sad over this harlots death. She laid down with demons and sold her soul.
Lets play a game
Whos the next industry whore to be sacrificed?
R.I.P. Baby Girl!!!
love and miss you always!
She was my favorite singer. I had every magazine, CD, ANYTHING she was featured on or just said her name. I had countless tapes of her on TV. Aww
I use to talk about her non-stop lol. I think every website I use to have back in the day had an Aaliyah dedication page.
BABY GURL — BETTA KNOWN AS AALIYAH…. REST IN LOVE (R.I.L) ……. STILL FEEL U THROUGH THE MUSIC… SHE WAS AS REAL AS THEY COME…. GONE BUT WE WILL NEVER FORGET YOU….
Her body is gone but her spirit will live 4ever(after the resurrection that is) aaliyah is my fav n there will never be another! She was is and will always be the best! Xoxoxo
We miss you Aaliyah, R.I.P
Shoutout to CL for remembering her each year without fail..
She was absolutely beautiful! There was not ONE flaw about her! She was truly an angel! R.I.P. Aaliyah!
I STILL WANT AALIYAH BACK! I JUST MISS HER SO MUCH!
I STILL WANT AALIYAH BACK! I JUST MISS HER SO MUCH!
I will NEVER get over her death.
Beautiful person! I loved her and her music!! I still remember when she died and it was on the news…I felt like I lost a friend RIP Aaliyah
RIP Aaliyah!
BUT shouldn’t we give just as much precedence to other artists who have passed? Luther Vandross and others… every year Aaliyah is celebrated.
What about Left Eye?
There has been no other like Ms. Aaliyah! These lil girls out today have no heart, talent and soul like Liyah. She knew how to be age appropriate and sassy and classy at the same time. She didn;t rely on gimmicks like the ones today. I grew up with her and admired her style. I named my child after her. Much love toAaliyah!!!!
I remember her as being one of the top pop singers of our generation.. No one will tell me different. She was a megastar… her trajectory was on blast off!! I will never in my lifetime see another “AALIYAH” …She was a luminous beacon of light for all young people.. to live your life and go after your dreams!! RIP!! <3
@? Because she is “AALIYAH” LOL.. BUT, I THINK WE CELEBRATE HER MORE BECAUSE SHE WAS SO YOUNG AND HER PUBLIC PERSONA! LV AND LE WERE MORE OLDER AND HAD A DIFFERENT MEDIA PERSONA… IDK… AALIYAH IS JUST DIFFERENT.. IDKY!!!
I always have and always will love “Baby Girl” when I think about just how young she was it still gets to me. I wish she was still here today she would be way bigger than Beyonce. I will always love you Baby Girl. Your #1 true fan.
You know you have become a legend/Icon and a threat when people spend their time debating how amazing you were!
The truth is she was great to millions of fans. She has a wonderful career and lived a life that people would kill for.
She will forever be remembered for being a trend-setter in the entertainment world.
RIP Aaliyah
RIP Aaliyah. We miss you so much. <3
Wow! It’s almost been 10 years. I can’t believe time just flew by, I remember when she passed and where I was. I also remember tears coming down my face which was strange because I’m an older woman and I really just viewed her as a cute little girl with talent but I wouldn’t have called myself a fan (too old to be a fan). I remember thinking about her mother and how she must have been feeling and that made me sad. She’s in heaven with all the other mega stars (Marvin Gaye, Luther, ”The King” and no I’m not talking about Elvis) R.I.P Baby Girl
Beautiful
She was so beautiful, unique and talented. The original babygirl, whose death was so tragic and unexpected. She is definitely missed.
I Miss You. R.I.P. Baby Girl.
Such a beautiful spirit about her. I’m so glad we got know who she was. We love and miss you Babygirl.
I love you Aaliyah and I miss you…

Her last album is still on repeat in my Ipod. It flows from start to finish and in my eyes is an R&B classic.
RIP to her and the other people who died with her.
RIP to Static Major who helped deliver this masterpiece.
RIP to the Katrina victims
Her self titled album remains an extremely creative and strong body of work!

SHE EMBODIES REAL MUSIC!
I love you Aaliyah! R.I.P
Thank you for inspiring us with your wonderful music and spirit its because of you I remember who I am. I know for sure that you are resting in perfect peace. Maria xxx
@85 go cry a river. Beyonce was already on top when Aaliyah was alive. Get over Beyonce and rep for Aaliyah.
I loved Aaliyah. She was one of the most beautiful, talented and humble singers out there. Just like someone mentioned in one of the other post she was naturally sexy. She didn’t have to try hard like other singers (Beyonce, Ciara). Everything about her was graceful, and classy. She was one of the best singers out there and its a shame that her life was cut so short, but the 22yrs she was on this earth she accomplished so much and that is definitely something to celebrate. Love you babygirl. You may be gone but you will never, ever be forgotten. R.I.P. Aaliyah. And to all the ignorant assholes on here saying negative comments fall the fuck back! For people to come on here and post such nasty things, you obviously are a very troubled individual!
Her laugh was beautiful and infectious!! Lol!
I LOOOVE AALIYAH
SO MUCH
I M SELFISH CAUSE I WISH
SHE WAS STILL HER
BUT I KNOW SHE IN THE BEST PLACE
REST IN PEACE
ANGEL
ugh I hate that she is gone. RIp
IKNOWTHETRUTH said it best.
R.I.P. BabyGirl
You’re dearly missed Aaliyah RIP
LOVED LOVED LOVED THIS YOUNG LADY. THERE WAS NO OTHER LIKE HER. SHE IS TRULY MISSED.
ONE IN A MILLION IS MY FAV AALIYAH VIDEO BUT I ABSOLUTELY ADORE ROCK THE BOAT BECAUSE IT WAS HER LAST ONE. SHE LOOKED SOOOOO BEAUTIFUL IN THAT VIDEO!
Like several other comments have mentioned, I have forgot to say RIP to the other individuals whom had passed away as well.
