Aaliyah's final film, "Queen Of The Damned" is released February 22, 2002. The film was directed by Michael Rymer, based on the third novel of Anne Rice's The Vampire Chronicles series, The Queen of the Damned.

This film was dedicated to Aaliyah after her death 6 months prior; and at first no one was certain if the film would be released out of respect to the family.

“[Aaliyah] was very chameleon-like and she knew that, And I think she would have just continued to surprise us.” - Stuart Towsend (Lestat).

Akasha from Queen of the Damned

When I made the list for Fanguary I wanted to make it more diverse. The first one coming to mind being the Queen herself played by the late Aaliyah. Let it be known that I never want to draw this much jewellery for another month or more because holy god it made me curse. However, I think I can admit, I kinda cooked.

Also, to add my personal two cents. While I understand that Akasha is implied to be Ancient Egyptian and therefore people often fancast her as more Mediterranean looking, I would totally be down for a more Early Dynasty Nubia influenced casting and styling. After all, the Greco-Roman influence to Egypt was a lot later and whilst Cleopatra VII was Ptolomeic and therefore not black, a lot of the earlier dynasties were and it shouldn't be erased from the history.

A song I would imagine #lestat would write about #louis #iwtv #jacobande...

All of yota songs, in my head, sound like lestat would sing. This is definitely one he would sing about Louis #interviewwiththevampire #jacobanderson #rockstar #vampire #blackvampire #new #annerice #immortaluniverse #samreid

The Invitation

Nearly every day this week, I've whisked by the library to print out the free 20 pages offered for each day. Then I'd take the flyers I've cut from them, visit a new coffee shop in the neighborhood, and leave them amongst the others.

I've always seen flyers like this: black & white, hand cut, no gloss. These are moments of homegrown "3rd Places," offering an invitation to YOU. Whoever you are.

I've grown a fondness for it. Unlearned the capitalist urge for dressings that bleed my pocket. And focus on what really matters. Us. Community.

So, when the time came to spread the word about our fundraiser party for the "Willow: House of Griots" TV series, I found myself here: extending my own personal invitation to a 3rd Place. For the community steadily growing around this show, and the ideas it espouses.

Come through. Join our community, and help us get our stories out there.

- Paul N.
