Teen People interview
Aaliyah recounts her many accomplishments, her image, the meaning behind her name and her mysterious nature:
I am a very mysterious person and when you first meet me I don’t let you think where I am really coming from. It takes a while to get to know me, I think it’s because I take my time to get to know people. You’re going to get someone who is affable, who’s nice but you’re not going to get the whole picture of Aaliyah for a while.
