When it comes to our favorite celebrities, sometimes we may not know what\u2019s real. I\u2019ve heard and read a lot of things about some of our favorite stars, and some things don\u2019t sound true. People have told lies bold and have put some people in the grave before they ever got there.

One of my favorite stars is Aaliyah. I\u2019ve heard all sorts of stories about her, but I take some things with a grain of salt. All I was interested in was the part about her being an entertainer. Aaliyah\u2019s personal life didn\u2019t matter to me, although sometimes I wish that it did while she was living.

Today I present to you The SoReal Strip. It\u2019s a commentary graphic and podcast episode of Aaliyah saying, \u201cThey\u2019ll try to bury you with lies. But not I.\u201d

I never heard Aaliyah say those words. But I have heard her try to defend herself saying, \u201cNo, not true.\u201d That\u2019s why I call the strip SoReal. It\u2019s a strip that didn\u2019t happen but some truth could be in it. The image of Aaliyah appears to be coming out of the page of a comic book leaving any lies behind that might have been attached to her name. She kept on working in her career regardless of any lies told.
