We reported back in January singer Keisha Chante has secured the role of Aaliyah for an upcoming biopic. The rumors about the movie having a small budget have changed. Bill Condon, director of the Beyonce and Jennifer Hudson movie Dreamgirls and writer of the movie Chicago, has been linked to the film. You know what this means!! We will all be enlightened with a big time flick.
Condon is known to attract big-time talent to his projects. According to Bossip, Condon has already secured Timbaland, Ginuwine, and Missy E. to appear in the film and play themselves. Even Hype Williams is on board to recreate Aaliyah’s final video shoot.
For all of you Chante haters, and I know there are many of you out there, don’t fret! Condon has put Chante through some serious training for this!
“We are going to great extremities to make this movie perfect. We have Chante in extensive……training studying, speaking with family members, watching personal footage and in choreography training with Aaliyah’s choreographer and dear friend Fatima Robinson. This movie will will be seamless the same way it was for Selena fans who enjoyed Jennifer Lopez.”

can’t wait!!! I know I’m gonna see this movie like 8 times. I love me sum Aaliyah! Keisha better work!
I waited so long for this, now I am afraid, not because of Chante, I’m sure she will do good, but because I am afraid that this won’t do her justice in some sort of a way, I don’t know, I still can’t wait!!!
BTW, Keisha Chante is Drake’s Ex-girl, how cute!!!
I don’t know about Keisha Chante, but if director said that she could do it, I guess she can. All I know is that this project is a true gift to all of us who lost one part of our harts the day she was gone. We love you Aaliyah. Thanks again to Bill Condon.

Great to hear this woman is finally landing a movie based on her life, and it is even greater that Keisha Chante is being prepared for the film. The formula for the making of the film on Selena worked really well, so I’m guessing it will give Aaliyah her justice in the same way Selena was given hers.
