So as most of you know today is August 25th , the day of Aaliyah's passing 8 years ago . Since 12:00a.m last night me and countless amounts of other fans have been working on twitter to reach our goal, we wanted Aaliyah to be the #1 trending topic for the whole day, by the next morning there her name was filling not only the #1 but the #2 spot on twitters Trending topics . the search box was flodded with tweets from fans all over the globe expressing their feelings and memories . it was something so amazing, then iwent upstairs to eat something reele quick & iturned on the radio & iheard Aaliyah's "Are Your Ready" song playing . DJ Mr.Cee was on Hot 97 playing non-stop Aaliyah for an hour straight , instead of the throwback @ noon, it was "Aaliyah @ noon" . it ddnt stop there though, the blog sites i check on a regular basis had posted something about Aaliyah from the big name blogs to the small ones , everybody was taking the time out to remember BabyGirl . Then when isigned back on twitter isigned on to find Famous Celebs. such as Diddy , Cassie , Solange , LaLa , Ciara , LeToya , Tyreese , Brandy , Monica , JoJo , Mya , Shree (Atlanta Housewives) , Perez Hilton , Sean Kingston , Michelle Williams (DC) , Lauren London , Tila Tequila ; ya'll ican go on forever with this list , there was so many people showing Aaliyah love its ridiculous . iturned on the TV just as 106 & park came on , & they basically dedicated the whole show to her , during the show they were showing tweets from fans posting their favorite memories of Aaliyah asking Celeb's who made guest appearances on the show what their favorite memory was & they also played "Miss You" . soon as that was over iturned to VH1 to find them playing ALLLL of Aaliyah's videos . its now 8:47p.m the day is almost over & people are still going hard man , its really an eye opener & shows me how much she was loved , iknew she had a hardcore fan base but there was so much love today ya'll icant explain it all because i'd be here all day . iknow Aaliyah is looking down teary eyed because after 8 years her legacy & memory carry on & become stronger & broader by the years .

We Love You Aaliyah , & We Miss You .
