Aaliyah fans petition to STOP movie from being made! Nearly 2000 people have signed so far against release of Pop Singers film! 

Well it really looks like the Aaliyah movie may never be made! As I previously reported, Aaliyah's family spoke out about wanting to stop production of the movie. And how they don't want Lifetime to use the Pop singers music at all!

Now her fans are attempting to halt the release of the film as well!

The website IPetitions.com had a petition posted recently, requesting that the Aaliyah film be canned because the film makers left Aaliyah's family in the dark about the project!

The petition titled, "Stop the Rumored Aaliyah Biopic" states.


"This petition is to stop the making of this Aaliyah biopic. It's wrong that Aaliyah's mother or brother didn't have a say so in this movie that is being made. The fans didn't get a say so and neither did any of Aaliyah's friends. As her fans, we're going to do anything in our power to stop this movie. Little do we know, this is hurting Mrs. Haughton and Rashad. They're about to make something that didn't even get approved from her family. That is beyond disrespectful. If you agree that this movie shouldn't be made, you need to vote. If you really respect Aaliyah, you have to respect her mother and her brothers wishes. It's only right. It was Aaliyah's life. And they're taking it too far now. We need to put a stop to this!"

They're definitely onto something here! I'm sure that Aaliyah's legacy and her personal life means the world to her family. So they should protect her name and brand! This young lady passed away at just 22 years old! They have every right to at least attempt to the stop the film from being made! I support them in their decision if they choose to do so. The fan in me wants to see the movie, however if the way that this movie is being made and released is hurting her family in any sort of way, they should speak up!

The creator of the petition had a goal of attracting just 1,000 people to sign. As I'm writing this blog, the petition has just under 1,800 signatures so far! With nearly double the signatures that they initially asked for, it looks like the push to the stop the film is truly gaining momentum!

What do you think about this whole thing? Do you think that the movie should be stopped? Did you sign the petition? How do you feel about the family having no say in the making of the film? Let me know what you think below and be sure to subscribe to my YouTube channel!
