Aaliyah: Tommy Hilfiger Commercial in HQ

🔁 via @xxbabygirlaaliyahxx: “Been waiting till #Aaliyah’s anniversary to post this precious gem but IG wouldn’t allow me. 😩 So here it is, the HQ version of BG’s ’@tommyhilfiger’ Commercial. ❤️💙 Hope you guys enjoy it as much as I did as I was scrolling through old VCR’s and watching videos… and say that this was recorded too. I was in complete shock that I missed it after all these years. Enjoy watching and hearing the original Tommy Girl’s beautiful voice and beauty in this quality. 💞🙏💫 I don’t know how she did it… slaying without makeup and her hair wasn’t even done. So damn natural! 😍 I can only imagine how dope it would be if they release all of her footage/interviews in HQ too!" | What a gem! 😩😍❤ Thank you so much for sharing all these gems sis! As well as all the tags! I truly appreciate that! 🙏💚 I also asked her if I was able to share this via my Youtube page, which she happily agreed to (thanks once again 😉😘❤️), as I've not come across such a high quality version anywhere in terms of audio, as well as seeing the commercial it's full entirety! So without further a due, sit back, relax and watch the video below! Enjoy! 😎

Aaliyah: Fiji, 1998 (Rare Photo)

🔁 via @eliane.nicole: “Aaliyah and me in the beautiful ocean in Fiji. This was such a special trip. She rarely vacationed because she worked constantly since she was a very young girl, so it was so nice and very rare for her to have this downtime with friends. We were there for 3 weeks from December 1997, to January 1998. We rang in the new year in Fiji. Her loyal fans always hit me up asking me to share pix of her. It is so wonderful how much they love her and keep her memory alive on social media even 16 years after her passing. She never saw Facebook, IG, any of it, but I know she would be so tickled by it all and touched that her fans do daily posts and are so reverent in keeping her legacy alive! ❤️❤️#beautifulmemories #babygirl #Aaliyah” | Thank you so much for sharing with us all! 🙏💚 Love seeing Aaliyah in her braids! 😩😍❤

Aaliyah: Disco at Bret Ratners House, 2000

🔁 @eliane.nicole: “I think I posted this one before but I love it so it’s worth a repost. Here we are at the disco at Bret Ratner’s house, must be summer 2000. Pictured here:Me, @kidadajonesog , Aaliyah, @nicolerichie, and Nicole’s friend. Anniversaries really have a way of making you travel down memory lane. So many beautiful fun memories with Aaliyah. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ btw that’s Adam 12 (@adambravin ) in the circle in the background in the DJ booth tearing it up on the ones and twos. I can’t even describe how he used to rock it at those discos. Aaliyah loved to dance the night away until sunrise, we all did. The party didn’t start until midnight. Some of the most fun parties in the history of LA parties at the Rat disco that summer. Oh the stories I have. And it was pre social media and tabloids so we could do whatever we wanted! #RIPAaliyah #babygirl” | Thank you so much for sharing your memories as well as this beautiful photo! You’re very lucky to have personally known Aaliyah and shared those fun times with her! 🙏💚
