I hate Aaliyah.

The "accident" in which she died was put down as "Pilot error". The reality was that the pilot's error, when confronted with a hissy-fitting "Do you know who I am?" actress and her minders, allowed her to take too much luggage on board, with the result that the plane stalled on take off and crashed, killing everyone on board (19 people), including non-Aaliyah-entourage people.

I hate Aaliyah.
