Aaliyah
At the age of fourteen, Aaliyah became a household name in the R&B genre. She was an enthusiastic musician and showman who released a string of hits in the early 2000s. After earning a Grammy, Aaliyah set out to conquer Hollywood as an actress and played Queen of the Damned’s protagonist in her first film role.
Aaliyah was photographed on location in the Bahamas, where she was filming the music video for her song “Rock The Boat.” Aaliyah and a large portion of the crew seen here would perish in a plane accident shortly after this photograph was taken. They were returning home from their trip.
