Singer Aaliyah, 7 Others Killed in Plane Crash in Bahamas

MARSH HARBOUR, Bahamas (Aug. 26) - R&B singer and actress Aaliyah died Saturday when a small plane that was to carry her and eight others back to the United States crashed after takeoff in the Bahamas, authorities said.

Eight were killed, and one critically injured man was flown to Florida for treatment, officials said.

''We find it devastating and most unfortunate that after having this world-famous star Aaliyah and her crew select the Bahamas as their choice location for her latest video, the project has climaxed on such a tragic note,'' said Minister of Tourism Tommy Turnquest, who happened to be visiting Abaco Island, where the plane went down.

Aaliyah's song ''Try Again'' earned her a Grammy nomination for best female R&B vocalist. She made her feature acting debut in the film ''Romeo Must Die.''

Bahamian national television quoted the civil aviation department as saying Aaliyah was among nine Americans on board.

The private plane was leaving the Marsh Harbour airport on a trip to Opa-locka, Fla. when it went down Saturday evening, said police spokesman Marvin Dames.

Abaco Island Chief Councilor Silbert Mills said those killed included two women and six men.

Islander Derek Russell, who worked for the group during the video shoot, said he got the artist's autograph before the accident.

''She's a nice girl, a friendly girl,'' he said.

The cause of the crash was unclear. Kathleen Bergen, a spokeswoman for the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration in Atlanta, said the plane was a Cessna 402 owned by Skystream, a company based in Pembroke Pines, Fla. She said the plane crashed at the end of the airport's runway at 6:50 p.m.

Not to be rude in anyway.... but Where did you find this news?

I looked on MTV.com and they said nothing of the sort.... it may just be a rumor... i haven't seen anything on the news either.... i remember way back people said that Eminem was killed and just recently Justin Timberlake and Britney Speares.... all were rumors and not true.....

I don't have any proof to back that up.... and I know for a fack 80% of info found on the web is either exagerated or completely false....

Yeah it does sound cold akito. some people just have different understanding of things. I am the same way. A persons death does not really hurt me or anyting but I do feel bad about it but I dont let it bother me. I continue on with my life. Some people just mourn more than others.

It is cold, yes, and it doesn't bother me one bit that she died, i've never even heard of her, maybe cause I've never even watch tv anymore, oh well, I've lost alot of family members to drunk drives, smoking, and heart problems... So, death doesn't really have a affect on me, besides, if I ever die soon, I dun want ppl cryin over me.
