Aaliyah: Rare Signed Photo


Repost via @billyjohnsonjr: “Interviewed #Aaliyah in Canada on the set of #RomeoMustDie. It was a pitstop on the way to my honeymoon. Had gotten married 3 days earlier. Whenever I’d see her, she’d tell me to tell my wife hello. Felt a deep sadness when I heard the news of her passing that Saturday evening. May she rest in peace. #1999 #MovingOffices#Packing” | Thank you for sharing your memories and thanks @weloveaaliyahhaughton for tagging me! :D

Aaliyah: Candid Memories Shared By @mama_ck


I couldn't let yesterday pass without sharing the beautiful memories shared by @mama_ck a good friend of Aaliyah. Personal moments like these mean a lot to us as fans, especially when we learn something new about them. I tried my luck and personally asked mama_ck what her most fondest memory of Aaliyah was, and to my surprise she answered straight away, not only answering my question, but sharing more memories and more pictures she had stored away. To this day I have never come across anyone so kind hearted and generous, so God bless this woman! Like Aaliyah, you too are very much beautiful inside and out. Thank you for sharing these personal memories with us all. 

I took the liberty of taking screenshots of the conversation via my phone, just so that everyone could have a good read! Some of it may seem jumbled since some of the captions were written under different posts, so I have just got the main parts where she mentions Aaliyah. I don't know whether I am more overwhelmed by the rare pictures or the actual memories she has shared. One thing is for sure, I have definitely learnt something new about Babygirl. Enjoy guys! ;)

Aaliyah Archives Celebrates its 2nd Year Anniversary!


So…I was planning on what I would write for my blogs 2 year Anniversary/Birthday which is today, and to my pleasant surprise the lovely @legacy_of_aaliyah made me this beautiful edit to mark the occasion. Thank you so much dear! Definitely was not expecting this at all. It’s hard to believe that 2 years today was when I decided to dedicate a site in memory of our beloved #BabyGirl. I remember for so long being inspired by many other #Aaliyah fan pages prior to starting out. After years and years of waiting, this was the day where I had an epiphany moment, the day I decided to become #AaliyahArchives. I thought long and hard about this name, since there were so many other fan page names out there. I wanted something simple, yet deep and meaningful. #AaliyahArchives felt very appropriate, since the whole essence was to archive lost footage, rare images and to just keep Aaliyahs’s memory and legacy alive. It also looks back into the past, which essentially are what ‘archives’ are all about. To this very day I am truly grateful and blessed to have made the friendships I have. Most importantly….I appreciate all the loyal readers of my blog, without your love and positive feedback, I dont know what I would do without you. Not only do I do this out of love for Aaliyah, but also to share this love with #TeamAaliyah. You are all like family to me, so thank you guys for just being the beautiful individuals that God created you as. One love ♥

A huge thank you to @aaliyahspage via Instagram for sharing these rare gems with us earlier today! Their Mother who happened to be good friends with one of the guys named Phillip (pictured in all four images above) happens to have a lot of pictures with Aaliyah. Who knows....we may even see more in the near future! ;) My favorite one has to be the one with Timbaland and Magoo, since it's such a classic moment in history. Thank you so much for sharing these with everyone. Much love! :o)

Walker Wear Shares Their Memories On Aaliyah...


Repost via @walkerwear: “#Episode 10 with #Aaliyah #RKelly #BacktotheFuture with #WalkerWear25 Years Strong. We first started working with R.Kelly and styling him early ‘90’s and through that relationship, we were able to style the video "Back and Forth” and work with the late and great “Aaliyah”. I remember thinking she was so young, so sweet, so innocent and so talented. She was definitely repping Chicago HARD. One of the creative debates That we didn’t win was the license plate. I remember the obstacles we encountered with this video. That week we had an earthquake in L.A., same week we were doing the video that was pretty major. R. Kelly was so shaken up, literally I think he may have slept in his car after that and was ready to leave. He would not go back up to the hotel room (because it was high up) or that was the industry buzz. It was so much that week but we made it through, video worked out, and a superstar was born. They showed mad love. Even did a photo shoot and represented #WalkerWear too. Shoutout to #Kimya and #Cola who rocked the styling on this with me…you guys made it happen. R.I.P Babygirl" | Thank you for sharing your personal memories of Aaliyah with us all! This was really sweet. Check out the video they posted below! :o)

A rare photo of Aaliyah and Mama Diane during her early years. What a beautiful picture! Courtesy of rawsheathot via Tumblr who shared this picture with the caption..."I’m at my great grandmother’s house going through the photo albums & I forgot that she knew Aaliyah’s father & grew up around him. Look at baby Aaliyah." Hopefully Rashad see's this so that he can show Mama Diane. :o)
