Happy Birthday Aaliyah

Today (1/16) would have been Aaliyah's birthday. The R&B singer gained attention for her debut album, Age Ain't Nothing but a Number, which sold three million copies in the U.S. and was certified double-platinum. Her career was cut short after she died in a plane crash in the Bahamas in 2001.

She also starred in the 2000 action film Romeo Must Die.
