We are sad Zendaya will no longer portray Aaliyah. Production is currently on hold.
— LifetimePR (@LifetimeTV_PR) June 29, 2014
You win. Former Disney child star Zendaya Coleman has abandoned the coveted role as singer/actress Aaliyah in an upcoming Lifetime biopic.
Zendaya quit after mounting pressure from Aaliyah’s family and fans who were offended that a biracial/mixed race actress was chosen to portray a black woman.
Lifetime Network made the announcement earlier today in a tweet on Twitter.com.
Aaliyah’s uncle and former manager, Barry Hankerson, led the charge of angry opposition to Zendaya’s casting in the role.
He said the family would block any attempt on Lifetime’s part to use any of Aaliyah’s music.
Lifetime was expected to start filming this summer, but the filming has now been put on hold. Aaliyah died in a plane crash in 2001.
More from Sandrarose.com:
Well….
well that was quick :rolleyes:. can’t say i’m disappointed. keeping things in perspective… this IS a lifetime movie. any actress they ultimately cast will likely not be the very best fit.
Usher. Ursher. I love me some him.
Busta Rhymes
@Who dat, I love me some Ursher. JHud is picking up weight, looks good on her. Lil Wayne..smh
Busta is old. If Happy wins one more category…..
Adrian & his ecostyler hairstyle o.O
Chris Tucker isn’t even a lil bit funny.
Y’all see tiny and tip sitting together booed up? #JesusFixedIt
I said when Pharrell got up…look at Busta
19 yo said Busta WHO? RHYMES fool! Do you know any OTHER “Busta”????!!
And I hate Lionel Richie past 1981. He the original musical Uncle Tom. We was fighting to keep yt folks from stealing our music in the 50s-70s. Here come the 80s and soon as he had a chance he bounced. Bye Lionel. They can keep you. Im disappoointed in BET.
Yolanda Adams blessed the building. #Jesus
@Who dat..Lionel had music after the 80s? I hated Hello.
What the F KeKe Palmer wearing? O.O
Ok I know what I watched but I still don’t know who Izzy Iggy is.
1) Zendaya won’t get anywhere if she cracks that easily … ask Ben Affleck (the new batman)
2) Aaliyah’s family and fans are delusional.
@Misunderstood Lionel aint have no mainstream hits after Brenda beat him and that yt woman azz! So yeah. You right. Not past The 80s!
Nothing but a bunch of entertainment coons who love their white masters more than the BLACK MESSIAH….
For this single verse alone THERE WILL NEVER BE A JOINING OF GOD’S CHOSEN WITH EDOMITES. WHETHER YOU BELIEVE IT OR NOT, OR LIKE IT OR NOT:
“Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated”- Romans 9:13
The only Black people that will live to inherit the whole world, and rule over all other nations, and own everything will be the ones doing HIS commandments and understanding that we as the chosen people have no dealings with edomites and other heathen nations because The Most High made us GREATER THAN THEM, but because of the sins of our fathers, this is why we as a collective whole are at the bottom of society now.
^^^^^ Oh boy. :wallslide:
I actually like this young lady
honestly I don’t think Aaliyah need a movie…. I loved Aaliyah too but a movie nahhh 
<<<<<———— woah is that
reedeemed
Those that were before us like martin luther king[(working with the enemy to passive our people while their people ‘edomites’,continued their VIOLENCE against us), maya angelo(she married the enemy, the oppressor of our people)] these folks did not have the knowledge of the Bible and the commandments.
Whether you like it or not, or believe it or not, there is no such thing as a ‘good white person’
All of them are the devils/satan that the Bible speaks about!
I like Zendaya. Hated her for Aaliyah… Do we really need an Aaliyah movie anyway?
Hey there deemed
long time no see 
Bet awards is so good for finding them washed up niggas that ain’t sang in a decade and giving them a performance and they sound like chit lol
Keep Color Me Bad and Silk. The. They cut off Tyrese and he was getting it.
The only award Icki will get
I can’t stand this chick
entertainment coons who love their white master
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
You just named every black artist ever signed to Clive Davis.
Really? That performance is what BET is claiming as them performing on their show?
Iggy received an award? For what?
Pimp tht btych out
:woot:
As a collective whole, edomites are doing waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better than the collective whole of God’s chosen people.
As a collective whole these edomites are not the ones struggling for jobs
As a collective whole these edomites are not the ones being thrown in the prisons
As a collective whole these edomites are not the ones being shot down in the streets like dogs
As a collective whole these edomites are not the ones living in poor conditions and living in projects
As a collective whole these edomites are not the ones on the bottom BLACK & HISPANIC PEOPLE ARE!!!!
As the Bible says: two-thirds of the chosen WILL BE DESTROYED.
They will be destroyed with the heathen that they love so much, even to the point of hurting, stepping-on, and exploiting their own people just to please these blue-eyed demons that God HATES.
Get knowledge: israelunitedotorg
The minds of the collective whole of black people have been twisted to the point of no return.
….and to you sunday church zombies…SMH@you
You better get out of those churches and get knowledge, and get it quickly, because your pork-chop pastors and big-lying bishops are leading you to that destruction that is coming to america.
ALL THE FOOLISHNESS IN THIS WORLD WILL BE DEALT WITH SOONER THAN YOU THINK.
I just turned on the true blood and I think I just peed a little
You black men and black women better get knowledge of who you are according to the Bible:
israelunitedotorg
Sad what they did to this poor chile and I have to agree with jenie Aaliyah fam is delusional. I keep saying people forget her last album was a struggle, no one was checking for her, death made that album go platinum. Aaliyah life is only gonna be interesting if they show her little fast arse with the pedophile, her homie hopping between jay and dame and the rumored possible affair with x
I am so happy for tiny and tip. Nicki sho did come for Iggy tonight the
throughout that acceptance speech
For you coons that just looooove to defend edomites…let me tell you this:
they are going to be destroyed PERIOD and it aint nothing YOU can do about it. The wheels are already rolling on that outcome.
worrying bout some damn iggy. That cave dweller is going to be DESTROYED along with the rest of her kind.
Who’s ready for Sandra’s post today ….. Me
Icky lame as Hell for that speech…. Talm bout she wrote her lyrics
let’s just say ya did 
now that just could be why ya shyt is wack as Hell no? That Bytch got a nerve throwing shots when her entire gimmick was stolen from Kim fawk out her 
Icki needs go jump off a damn cliff…. And never show her plastic azz again smh
Ole lame azz….the only award ya dumbazz can snag is a EBT ponder on that Bytch
and you even sucked the dirtiest crustys and ya still couldnt get a damn Grammy…. I bet Iggy get oone before you

********************************
Co-sign. However in her defense she is only 17 and has many years to toughen up and conqueror Hollyweird and all of the negativity. Her parents are very protective and they were probably the ones that said “eff it” To the people saying she is not black enough, tell that to white America!!
Cause hee Daddy good and black
she black
I couldn’t care less about this Aaliyah movie if I tried
I like Nikki…
Tiny looked very good last night.

Does Nicki have asthma or a peanut allergy? Da fcuk she talmbout she almost died last week?
She threw so much
at Iggy though, I was so there for it!
I keep saying people forget her last album was a struggle, no one was checking for her, death made that album go platinum.
=========
People used to be trying to fight me for telling the truth bout that album! It was only “GREAT” cuz she couldn’t make another one. If the movie ain’t bout Aaliyah being pimped and/or fcukin for tracks then it won’t be interesting.. just saying

The EBT awards were a fukkin MESS to me. Most of that shy was painful to watch. Ursher killed his performance, jhud has picked up some wait and it looks AMAZE on her. That’s all i really got.
Morning yall
Meanwhile!
I need Bobbi Kristina to have several _/ ‘s!
So yall saying the KeKe is

tell the truth and shame the devil! the family didnt want the oncoming questions of “why you let your doorter get married at 14?” “was her underroos in her purse?” “is she the pioneer of getting pissed on?”
@Wasting, What that heffa done said/did now?
the only nominee that can really spit in that category was Eve….

Who said this?!
It was so wack that KeKe kept that outfit on the whole time. She should have changed at least 4 times
they dropped the ball on that.
I loved the plaid shirts the guys had on last night. It was ‘cover the crack of your a s s in them too small skinny pants’ length
CB did the damn thing! Sang danced and came back for the remix
Ursher did his thing too… I love good kisser.
How Wayne do Believe Me with no Drake … TF!!
Chris Rock was the best !!
Bobbi Kristina going in on Angela Basset and calling her all types of man and chit on the twitter
Angela making the Whitney movie and said that Bobbi was never considered.
Tiny and TI looked happy and her ring was back on!!
…but he better take this gift and do the right thang. She wanted a baby and we saw him shut it down on TV no less so the disrespect was real!
One time for Meshach Taylor S.I.P
I really didn’t get why everybody was saying Chris Rock was funny…he’s really not. And why the heck was he giving out dang chicken……
Bobbie Kris is a train wreck
I did like Chris Rock. He needs to do another stand up.
Keke was a mess. She needed a do over. Wayne was dirty as always.
Best part of the BET awards was when Troop,Silk,& Color me bad performed other than that
“why you let your doorter get married at 14?” “was her underroos in her purse?” “is she the pioneer of getting pissed on?”
==============
Yew are a fool, but I will say I remember she lied about her age to get married and her family did force them to annul it. Why they didn’t press charges and allowed her to continue working with him is another matter
Bobbi Kristina can NOT play her momma. What acting skills does she have? She don’t even look like her momma!! What she needs to do is stop snorting that coke and get her simple ass together.
Tiny and TI looked happy and her ring was back on!!
********************
But her ring was on the wrong finger……
I hope they get back together, so I’m gonna go with the fact that maybe they are working on it so she put it on her right hand.
@missyj exactly. The family is protesting too much. Something is not clean in the milk.
when somebody is not speaking to you and they say hello EXTRA LOUD to everybody else just to let you know that they can speak but just not to yo ass and then the person they are speaking to is like bitch why you so LOUD :stop:
bitch get yo dam life
Bobbi Kris need to go sat her ass down somewhere with her brusband. :rollseyes: Bitch couldn’t even be sober long enough to accurately play her mama.
One time for Meshach Taylor S.I.P

they talmbout he leaves behind a wife and 6 kids.
say what nah? he was a mighty good actor then cuz….. 
they even play Designing Women on the gay channel.
@user morning. And I would of laughed real loud. Clown ass bitch. Like someone GAF that you did not speak.

UGH that was the worst to me, BET love pulling folks who ain’t sang in a decade and putting them up there to embarass themselves
SILK was good Troop and CMB

If she was she hid it for a while. Bobbi Kris can’t even hide it a lil bit.

she can play the role of WH screaming “Oh hell to the naw” on the reality show but thats about it.
My daughter and I watched Zapped on Disney this weekend and after watching her act, dance and sing and that zero waist line she would have been good for the role. She is not as light as her pic, doesn’t look like Aaliyah but the girls that do 9/10 are not a triple threat.
