As you may already know there has been talk about Aaliyah’s bio-pic coming out this year hopefully, Keshia Chante’ (canadian singer), will be playing Aaliyah and is going through extensive training from studying, speaking with family member’s, and training with Aaliyah’s former choreographer and friend Fatima Robinson.Very close friend of Aaliyah, such as Timbaland, Missy Elliot, Ginuwine and Hype Williams are helping with the production for the film. She is also a beautiful singer check out her video here
The bio-pic will be Directed by Dreamgirls director Bill Condon and will begin production some time this year. I gotta say she looks a lot like Aaliyah and seems very serious about making her idol and Aaaliyah’s fans happy ! I think this bio-pic out of many bio-pic’s we have all scene this one will be the most anticipating because she may look like her but we will have to see if she can play “Aaliyah” ! But Im sure if Aaliyah’s closest friends are helping her she will definitely portray Aaliyah the right way especially with Timbaland and Missy Elliot being around who were extremely close to her. Im looking forward to seeing this bio-pic , I always adored Aaliyah and Im sure that I and everyone else will be glued to the screen looking for any mess ups …What can you say?? That was and still IS our “Babygirl”! Can no one take her place but if you’re going to play the part …You gotta BRING IT HOME!
Keshia Chante’ also stated: “Aaliyah inspired me and an entire generation,” Keshia Chante said in a statement. “She was stunning, effortless and was capable of so many things. This is a hard undertaking, I have big shoes to fill but I am committed, determined and will train to the very end to master this role. I want Aaliyah’s fans and admirers to be proud of this film and feel like it was the best interpretation possible of our babygirl. I refuse to disappoint.”(trust we are holding you to that !)
