Dead and sad
BandSAboutMovies31 December 2023
Warning: Spoilers
Aaliyah, Amy Winehouse, Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes and Selena all died way too young. Why?

Aaliyah, an R&B singer and star of Romeo Must Die and Queen of the Damned was killed in an airplane accident in the Bahamas along when the overloaded aircraft crashed shortly after takeoff. The pilot had drugs and alcohol in his blood and was not qualified to fly the aircraft.

Amy Winehouse released one of the best-selling albums in UK chart history, Back to Black. She struggled with substance abuse, mental illness, bulimia and addiction, dying of alcohol poisoning at the age of 27. After her death, her album became the UK's best-selling album of the 21st century.

Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes was a member of TLC along with Tionne "T-Boz" Watkins and Rozonda "Chilli" Thomas. She was infamous for setting Andre Rison's home on fire before she died in a car crash in Roma, Jutiapa, Honduras, while volunteering at a children's development center. Days before, her assistant had accidentally killed a young boy, Bayron Isaul Fuentes Lopez, and she believed that a spirit that followed her choose him instead of her.

Selena was the Queen of Tejano Music and becoming a crossover star in America. She is still one of the most influential Latin artists of all time even after she was shot and killed in 1995 by Yolanda Saldívar, her friend and the former manager of her Selena Etc. Boutiques.

This documentary takes you through the lives, the successes and challenges of these women, as well as what happened to all of them. Each of their lives ended way before they could have done more and is a tragedy in its own way.

My opinion
juangabrielnj27 March 2022
I do not like the way they pic and choose who is more important and who is not. At the end of the day every life is worth the same. Not more or less just because of a career. The public or fans feel in this case singers should be remembered. In a way its kind of sad because somebody can be killed in the street today and that person will be cremated or buried and will not even be thought about. My point of this is that everyone should be looked at as equal.
