Jet Li: ”I say that while the physical part of her has left us, mentally, she’s always here. She’s always in my heart. Every time I come to the States, people still talk a lot about Aaliyah. I say she’s still in my heart. I always feel that she’s there. She’s living on in a lot of people’s hearts”
“For me, Romeo Must Die was a very important movie in my career in Hollywood. It was the first time the studio gave me a chance in my first leading role. Aaliyah worked with me, line by line. We worked together for days on how to act, how to have a relationship on the screen”
“After our days of shooting, we’d have dinner. Her mom would bring her. I would bring my brother. We’d sit together just like a family, very warm.”
“Everybody in the film loved each other. Aaliyah was very charming and pretty. With Anthony Anderson and DMX, we’d all work together, and it’s a very strong memory in my heart”

I forgot that she was in that film. I must rewatch it. I only remember liking it.

Such a nostalgic movie. Aaliyah was on the rise with her film debut. #1 at the box office and the soundtrack’s lead single, her song, Try Again, became the first single to top the Billboard charts based solely on airplay. She was also emerging as an even bigger a fashion and beauty icon with her look evolving from the previous era.

They both are the stars of the movie and definitely had some chemistry 💔

I know Jet Li has had some serious health issues but he really does seem like a very kind person and Kiss of the Dragon is incredible and hugely underrated.

I just watched a deep dive on why her plane crashed (it was overloaded).
