Aaliyah never aged in the seven years she dominated the music scene. Elegant, classy, professional and smart. Regardless of that incident, she was the epitome of young urban soul music with a normal but classy image. No one will ever compare. RIP.

[@cortezmiller1899]

she was 15 in this video but was about to turn 16 in 10 days

[@iBOXRIVER]

But the album was probably made when she was 14 in 93 and released when she was 15 in 94. Her exchange with him at the car, and the awkward hand shake tells me they’ve been messing around and are used to playing it off in public. The whole thing is nasty in hindsight. All the music from both of them in this area is nasty unfortunately 🤢

[@stoneywhet7930]

Boricua Baby I understand your point about how he had the girls in his houses dressed. but Aaliyah, even in her baggie oufits, she would most times show her midriff. it was well known from her own words that she didnt like dresses. if she was prompted to dress in boyish gear, hell, it sure was better that way than like now where these entertainers are always damn near naked. js imo

She leveraged the mystery about her age/dating R. Kelly rumor(true or not) for publicity/roll out for the song/album. Probably one of the smartest things to do also leveraging R.Kelly’s name for additional promotion. Created a controversial song to do all of that is low key marketing genius. 👑

[@gabbyvillarreal1062]

The ring they zoomed in on was the ring her grandmother gave her, not a wedding ring.

[@gabbyvillarreal1062]

Courtny 007 Must be because she didn’t know or realize that was the “wedding finger”, where you’re supposed to put your wedding/engagement ring. I’ve done that a few times where I put rings on that finger without realizing, also, there was no ring when R.Kelly “married” her, they weren’t even dressed in wedding attire, and the whole thing was private, in a hotel room in Rosemont, Illinois.

The media feeds off this story for ratings and interesting gossip, the story will never disappear from either of their careers unfortunately. Because so many girls have testified against R. Kelly people will always wonder what happened between these two. The world may never know.

[@ThatHonestPerson]

Maybe to give her a chance to be honest

[@ettaj21]

This entire report has been spoken about so wrongly. I can’t believe people didn’t see it for what it was. She was a minor and he a grown man! He was the adult! It appears as though they talk about the situation as though it was two adults or people on the same level. Aaliyah was not at fault, she was abused by R. Kelly the fact no one raised that is a joke. An do feel that because of her race this contributed to this situation being overlooked!

Exactly, I agree with you completely because I personally could care less if she was married to him or not. If she was then my response would be " Oh okay ". If she wasn't then my response would be " Oh okay ". Ppl shouldn't be concerned about if she was married or who she was fucking. All of that is irrevelant and ppl should be only focusing on her wonderful singing dancing and acting instead of being up in her personal and private life.

A lot of people don't want to admit that she was very much in love with R Kelly.In one interview he said he came up with the title because she and her friends were talking and she said, age ain't nothing but a number and that made him write the song because they didn't have a title yet for the album.
