Overview

Aaliyah Dana Haughton was that music business rarity: a teen idol who transformed herself into a critically acclaimed hip-hop soul artist, a singer who successfully made the transition to actress, and beatiful woman who never let the trappings of celebrity go to her head. Following her impressive debut at age 14 with the album ""Age ain't Nothing but a Number"", Aaliyah raised the bar with the influential and bestselling follow-up ""One in a Million"". She then took her talents to Hollywood, starring in the action thriller ""Romeo Must Die"" and the highly anticipated horror film ""The Queen of the Damned"". But soon after the release of her third album in the summer of 2001, Aaliyah's life was cut short in a tragic plane crash. This book tells her story.
