Aaliyah biopic comments

Interview0 Comments

Williams’ discusses the Lifetime Aaliyah biopic and why the family needs to let it happen.

In my opinion, TV trumps motion picture. As a woman who loves to lay in the house and watch a motion picture, I feel that the family might be a little misguided in the power of box office versus TV. Lifetime will play the movie over and over. TV is the way to get your story told.

Tracy has released a single; it’s called Last Call. In this season you are going to see if the sisters album is going to come to out because we are still filming the season but the album has not come out yet. I hope I am not telling a secret but as we film the show we all realize that we have some issues that stem from our childhood and they are coming to a head.

I don’t think anyone but Chris Brown has been serious about Rihanna cause Rihanna, don’t take this the wrong way because this is an observational observation…Rihanna is like, you hit the skins and scram. I didn’t make that up. She puts it out there. Like Rihanna is not girlfriend material. Am I wrong? Rihanna is the kind of girl she’s hot, she’s sexy. You do her, then you take your penicillin.
