DETAILS ON THE NEW AALIYAH MOVIE

CANADIAN SINGER KEISHA CHANTE IS TO PLAY AALIYAH IN THE UPCOMING BIOPIC MOVIE THAT WILL RELEASE SOMETIME NEXT YEAR IN 2010. A STAR IN THE R&B WORLD BEFORE SHE WAS EVEN OUT OF HER TEENS, AALIYAH'S PROMISING CAREER WAS TRAGICALLY CUT SHORT BY HER SHOCKING DEATH IN A PLANE CRASH AT AGE 22. AALIYAH WAS ON LOCATION IN THE BAHAMAS TO FILM A VIDEO FOR "ROCK THE BOAT." ON AUGUST 25,2001 SHE AND SEVERAL MEMBERS OF THE CREW BOARDED A SMALL TWIN-ENGINE CESSNA PLANE RETURNING TO THE MAINLAND. THE PLANE CRASHED SHORTLY AFTER TAKEOFF, EXPLODING ON IMPACT. AALIYAH AND SEVEN OTHER PASSENGERS WERE KILLED INSTANTLY, AND THE NINTH LATER DIED AT A NASSAU HOSPITAL. INVESTIGATIONS INTO THE CRASH SHOWED THAT THE PLANE HAD BEEN LOADED FAR PAST ITS WEIGHT CAPACITY AND THAT THE PILOT LUIS MORALES HAD RECENTLY BEEN ARRESTED FOR CRACK COCAINE POSSESSION (TRACES OF WHICH, ALONG WITH ALCOHOL, WERE FOUND I HIS SYSTEM). THE CHARTER COMPANY, BLACKHAWK INTERNATIONAL AIRWAYS, HAD NOT AUTHORIZED HIM TO PILOT THE CRAFT IN QUESTION. AS DETAILS CONTINUED TO EMERGE FROM THE PLANE CRASH INVESTIGATION, AALIYAH'S PARENTS FILED SUIT AGAINST BLACKHAWK AIRWAYS, VIRGIN RECORDS, AND SEVERAL OTHER COMPANIES.
