I am really sad about what happened to Aaliyah...it just seems like every day we hear about more and more tragedies that are happening to celebrities, and it sort of freaks me out. Like we used to have this image that nothing bad ever happened to celebrities, and now we're realizing that this isn't true.
To be honest, when I first heard about her, I didn't believe it. I thought that my friend (who told me) had just made a mistake....but when I realized it was true, it kinda freaked me out!! I wasn't really a big fan of hers, but its still really sad- the world really lost a talented, beautiful person, who's stardom was about ready to explode!! It's weird cuz it was SO sudden...like if someone would have come on here a week ago and predicted that Aaliyah would die, we woulda all thought they were being ridiculous!!
Ok, so it was a lil off-subject, but like other ppl said, since everyone was so supportive (even non-BSB fans) of AJ, I think we should all pray and be supportive of Aaliyah's family, and show how much we really loved and mourn for her and them!!!
Off that subject, I am sooo glad that AJ (oops I mean ALEX) is okay...its pretty inspiring to see someone really get through something like that...I am just so happy that he made it through it all and is reunited with the rest of the Boys, and I pray that nothing like that ever happens to him or the other Boys again!!!!

bsbfan26~I also e-mailed that person. I got a similar reply. I asked them if they could move the other event to another date but they said business doesn't work that way. So it really sucks.
I don't know what we should do to get them here. I want them to come so bad!!! So you think we should contact other venues? How would we do that...I don't have their e-mail addresses. What if they're booked up too? I hope not. I guess we could try the Key Arena. Well, let me know if you have any ideas of what we should do. I'm willing to do whatever it takes to get them back over here! E-mail me. :)
Here's a petition for you to sign...and other bsb fans can sign too whether you live in WA or not we could really use your help!!! Thanks!

I have 2 things. Aaliyah died, we all know that. She's not here on Earth physically, but mentally through her music. Her music is on Earth, in Heaven, and right in our hearts.WA FANS!
I emailed one of the people that deals with concerts, etc... at the tacoma dome. And here is what I got as a reply:
JCHESLEY@TACOMADOME.ORG
The reason the Back Street Boys were not rescheduled was because their
promotion company only offered the Tacoma Dome one date. That date the Dome
was already rented out. We would have loved to have had the concert here
but were not offered any other date.
Ok, so guys, if we still want them to come, we got to talk to other venues in this state!

I am really not that bothered about the tour being
posponed because as long as A.J is recovering
that is all that matters. i think all the other backsreet

and that all his fans love him and will be glad
to see him and the rest of the boys back
doing the backsteet thang that the world loves

I'm really sad about what happened to Aaliyah. I know she was a great person who had so much talent. She had such a bright future ahead of her. I heard her family was devastated...I feel so bad for them. I hope they will stay strong and know that she's safe in heaven. She will be missed by so many people.
~May you rest in peace Aaliyah.

I'm upset that the fact Aaliyah passed away. I won't say whatever the news said, because I bet you all heard it by now. But, sorry this is a BSB site, but this is Aaliyah and she's in the music bussiness and BSB is too. My friend, who likes Aaliyah got to meet her 2 summers ago. At the shooting of Romeo Must Die. She got her autograph and some pictures. I was the first one to tell her the news. It was really hard.
To Aaliyah's family, AND the filming crew, and make up people who went with her to shoot the video I hope you will be ok. And to her fans, who supported her,even though she passed away in some way she's still here on earth--her music.

My heart and prayers go out to her family and friends....and her fans!! I know they must feel deeply saddened by this. Its so hard for me to be happy and move on to another subject, but I am so glad that BSB is back and better than ever!! Any news or anything, just keep me posted!! I luv you guys....vote your butts off, and also keep Aaliyah in your prayers always. KTBSPA!!!!! P.S. Thea, you are a lucky girl, give me more details and how old are u??

Quite frankly, if we are all Backstreet Boys fans, than it wouldn't really matter that they postponed their tour for A.J.'s health. And it also doesn't really matter what we think anyways, I'm sure the Backstreet Boys aren't going to go against what they think is right to please their audience. I'm pretty sure they have a good idea what they're doing!! The main thing is that they are all doing well (we hope!!) and everything is back to normal. However, as a BSB fan, I am so happy that they are back, and am looking very forward to seeing them in October!!

Yes, I know this is a BsB site...but I myself am really devastated at this news about Aaliyah. It is very true that she was killed when her plane crashed and bursted into flames last night at 6:25. I didn't listen to her music much either but as a person she was very sweet. She never said anything negative about other artists, and it's very unfortunate that she's gone now. I know she liked the bSB cuz when she hosted TrL...she said.."I love these guys" or something along those borderlines...and i know the guys respected her also. I'm glad that all of the bsb are now together again and okay. But i hope u guys spread the love about Aaliyah...cuz when aj was in trouble..ppl who didn't even like the bsb shared their concern for alex.
I'm really sad, and I hope someone dedicated and award at the vma's in her memory. I think she was gonna be there to present. Oh well...KTBSPA...and keep aaliyah's memory alive also. Peace...later.

Hey yall did you hear that Aaliyah was killed in ah plane crash?? heres the info I got it off MSNBC.com! And I heard it on the radio and I guess some people heard it on the NEWS on TV. So I guess its true! :*( I didnt really listen to her music all that much but I saw her Diary on MTV and she seemed REALLY REALLY Sweet. I really hope they have this all wrong. Cuz they did the same thing about Justin and Britany getting in ah car crash and that wasnt true. Well read below. And if you dont belive me heres the site I got it off... http://www.msnbc.com/news/619571.asp#BODY“WE FIND it devastating and most unfortunate that after having this world-famous star Aaliyah and her crew select the Bahamas as their choice location for her latest video, the project has climaxed on such a tragic note,” said Minister of Tourism Tommy Turnquest, who happened to be visiting Abaco Island, where the plane went down.
Aaliyah’s song “Try Again” earned her a Grammy nomination for best female R&B vocalist. She made her feature acting debut in the film “Romeo Must Die.”
Bahamian national television quoted the civil aviation department as saying Aaliyah was among nine Americans on board.

The private plane was leaving the Marsh Harbour airport on a trip to Opa-locka, Fla. when it went down Saturday evening, said police spokesman Marvin Dames.
Abaco Island Chief Councilor Silbert Mills said those killed included two women and six men.
Islander Derek Russell, who worked for the group during the video shoot, said he got the artist’s autograph before the accident.
“She’s a nice girl, a friendly girl,” he said.
The cause of the crash was unclear. Kathleen Bergen, a spokeswoman for the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration in Atlanta, said the plane was a Cessna 402 owned by Skystream, a company based in Pembroke Pines, Fla. She said the plane crashed at the end of the airport’s runway at 6:50 p.m.
