Alexandra Shipp Replaces Zendaya In Aaliyah Biopic


Recommended Posts

They got they heart set on someone bi-racial lol, but ey she has the look more than the other girl

 

 

Lifetime needs to give up tho, not even with the casting but because they can't use her music at all, know what kind of biopics don't use the artists whose story their telling's actual art...........shitty ones........... What's important about a biopic for a singer is it's supposed to represent the person's music as well as them so that future generations can, I mean can you seriously imagine Selena, Ray, Why Do Fools Fall In Love, Walk The Line,  or ANY of the million biopics without the music? As long as this film hasnone of Aaliyah's music it's doomed to me.

Must they be a Disney/Nickelodeon star? :unsure:

I mean... She does look more like Aaliyah but I guess they have their heart set on casting someone lightskinned

 

Aaliyah has a medium tan complexion, Alexandra isn't that much lighter than her.

They need someone young and biracial with a respectable career in acting. Someone the children will see and remember tho no child is gonna watch an Aaliyah biopic

Can we comment on the fact that Wendy Williams is now the executive producer. :umm::lmao:

At least we now know that it will see the light of day and it will be juicy. Wendy will make sure of that.

 

Not sure if I would be excited after being cast after the first choice dropped out. I know that happens a lot in Hollyweird, but I couldn't be the second option. Best of luck to this new gal.

That was my thought on Wendy, you know she's gonna make it messy, who playing R Kelly pissing ass gurl how you doing? :lmao:  on a serious note though, can Wendy produce a film? Has she ever produced anything outside a radio show? This is not hot topics boo :filenails:

As I said before.. Executive Producers oversee the work of the producer on behalf of the studio, the financiers or the distributors. They will ensure the film is completed on time, within budget, and to agreed artistic and technical standards.

Let's not read too far into her title

your passing the ball off, and in the description you do in fact make some valid points, but here we are talking about Wendy Williams, I have a hard time not seeing her influence the story telling in some ratchet way, that's Wendy's brand, shock gossip TV. In a word messy, without any definitions needed :coffee:

I didn't just make some valid points.. All my points is valid.. That is what an executive producer does

Wendy Williams as EP is the least of y'all "worries"

Several? I only see one

Don't correct my grammatical errors.. This isn't the Oxford English forum and you're certainly not a teacher... Not to mention, I'm typing on either my iPhone or my iPad 70% of the time

If you only see one, then you're as blind as your grammatical errors, get on a keyboard every now and then if you have something substantial to say, I don't try to make statements here on my Iphone. And whether I teach or not is not the point, I corrected :)

Idc what you don't do.. Don't come for my errors.

Y'all overuse the word "snatched"

And all You did was correct an iPhone autocorrect error.. Congrats! You're self-worth is still minimal
