Obama Mama said what I was thinking. I'll just wait until I see the film in it's entirety before I can judge of whether Naturi was convincing or not. Appearance wise, she reminds me of Kim before surgery, now pulling off Kim's flow is another story. She has done Broadway and will be in the new TV version of FAME, so maybe she can.

Now the character I'm iffy about is their choice for Pac. I saw a few of his scenes, on Youtube and although he is a good actor I'm not convinced he was the best choice to play Pac.

Someone mentioned Keisha Chante playing Aaliyah, and I think the resemblance is spot on. Go look at her musc videos on Youtube if you haven't seen them. I felt like I was looking at Aaliyah in some scenes. I also heard Aaliyah's family hand picked Keisha Chante personally so I think the film will turn out decent. @3:26 thanks for the info about Keisha working with Aaliyah's choreographers. I didn't know about that tid bit.
