Aliyah looks pretty plain if you ask me I was never attracted to the women with the plain faces thin noses lips etc don't get me wrong I still like fine women I just like broads with a body and maybe a face like a young to middle aged Angela Bassett or Gabrielle Union Aliyah tricks people into thinking she's fine because she's such a good singer but if she wasn't famous I think she'd be about a 7 especially without make up. Her facial structure is just nothing special now Angela baser from the Ike And Tina movie(the scene BEFORE she gets beat BEFORE) when she was in the house with Ike is the finest she's ever looked. And in the buggy small a movie. Her high protruding cheek bones.
