As this August comes to a very quick end, Rashad left a special message for all of #TeamAaliyah, back on the 25th of Aaliyah's 14 year death anniversary, for anyone who happened to miss this. 

It's hard to believe that 14 years have passed by since our beloved Babygirl no longer remains with us in the physical form. However, she will always continue to remain with us in spirit just based on her influence alone, through both fashion and music. All these years and I'm proud to say that myself, along with all the other great fans I have come across, still holding down her legacy in the most positive way we know how (including the younger generation who have the best, perfect role model anyone could ever ask for!).

No matter how long a person goes, the raw pain still remains, so as always I will continue to keep The Haughton's in my prayers to give them the strength they need to battle each passing day, month and year. I believe this month has been a very blessed and special one based on the amount of rare photo's we've come across, as well as the MAC campaign which was launched to give Aaliyah her very own signature collection. (Petition link is...https://www.change.org/p/mac-cosmetics-estee-lauder-to-release-a-aaliyah-for-mac-limited-edition-collection-aaliyahformac?recruiter=128552080&utm_source=share_petition&utm_medium=copylink if you have not signed already) I'm also eagerly anticipating on Timbaland's unreleased track as well as what aaliyah.com are going to launch. Exciting things are happening and I just can't wait any longer! :D

Aaliyah Archives: News

As of yesterday, Aaliyah's Brother Rashad Haughton tweeted some exciting news for all of #TeamAaliyah. Firstly, in regards to possibly having the MAC signature collection in 2017, where I assume Rashad had discussed with MAC as to when they could release the products. I think this makes sense since there is also another signature collection paying homage to the great Selena Quintanilla who, with great support from all her fans coming together as a team, managed to seal the deal with MAC to make an official launch in 2016 next year. So out of respect to her, it would not be right to launch both at the same time, so I can totally understand why MAC said that. Since I haven't posted one of my latest edits on my blogger site, here's the most recent promo I made below, to support the campaign :o)

Edit made by yours truly! :o)

As for the second news...I don't know about you guys, but I am so excited for what is in store! :D Looks like everything is finally coming together. Who knows....we may hear about what is happening come 25th August, which we all know is the most toughest day of all. I'm very grateful that we have some good news to look forward to, on a day where it can be very sad remembering what happened, so I hope this has uplifted peoples spirits, and well being. One love! :o)

Words cannot fathom how I am feeling right now…. Timbaland just made my whole year! Thank you! :D :D :D With all that has been going on lately, I truly believe that all of Aaliyah's future plans/goals are finally coming together. I've never been so hyped in all my entire being! :o) Lol!

Monie Love Gives Shout Out for #AaliyahForMAC Movement

For anyone who missed the radio broadcast on Boom 107.9FM Philly early this morning, here’s what Monie Love had to say about the #AaliyahForMAC movement! :D Enjoy!

Aaliyah Archives News: Aaliyah For MAC

My edit for the AaliyahForMAC campaign.

As some of you may be aware, a campaign has been launched to allow our beloved Babygirl her very own 'MAC Signature Collection'. The idea first came about by fellow members of #TeamAaliyah who go by the names of Traesha Burke (who you can find via Facebook and Instagram) along with @Regina_Allen (via her Twitter page) who expressed the idea with Aaliyah's Brother, Rashad Haughton. His response thus followed in the most positive way, which you can view below here...

 

Recently we have encountered more feedback from Rashad, the official Aaliyah Twitter page AND MAC Cosmetics! Check it out below...

As you can see, we may have a chance of turning this campaign into reality! But you are probably wondering "What can I do to help?". There are many things which you can do to help this idea come into fruition. Firstly...

1) SIGN THE PETITION

  

You can find the petition link here: https://www.change.org/p/mac-cosmetics-estee-lauder-to-release-a-aaliyah-for-mac-limited-edition-collection-aaliyahformac

The more signatures we obtain, the more likely we are to receive our Aaliyah signature collections! ;)

2) CONTACT MAC COSMETICS DIRECTLY

4) PROMOS

Feel free to use these promos shown below to get people talking...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

5) SHOW AWARENESS

The final step is probably the most crucial part of achieving our goal. The more social awareness we have, the more likely people will spread the word. This can be done in many ways by...

• Sharing the petition link.

• Sharing the AaliyahForMac social site networks listed above.

• Sharing the promo images (shown above).

• Hash tagging #AaliyahForMAC as often as possible so that we are able to get it trending. Like Rashad said....#MakeItHappen

• If you're a blogger/Vlogger or Makeup Guru, write/talk about the movement so that we can spread the word!

• Get creative! Design your own edits/artwork of what you would like featured in the collection. The possibilities are endless ;) I have personally made my own edit (First image at the beginning of the post) to help do my part. To my surprise, a lot of people took a liking to this. Particularly...

Woww....All I can say is that I am truly honored and humbled by this. Thank you so much guys, this really warms my heart. I am so grateful that both Rashad and Missy, along with everyone else took a liking to my edit, since I really wasn't expecting THAT many people to like it! Lol Anyhoo, it goes to show how something as small as this, can spark awareness. So if I can do it, you guys can too! 

Right now, our main priority is to get Aaliyah's make up artist Eric Ferrell on board. We have already had positive feed back from stylist Derek Lee and Tre' Major. But...if we could also get Timbaland on board too, that would be the icing on the cake ;) Let's help keep Babygirls memory alive and make this happen everyone! :D
