Looks like Wendy Williams's opinion of the new Aaliyah (Alexandra Shipp) biopic may need to take a second look!

According to fans of the late singer, Aaliyah: The Princess of R&B, was a total disappointment.

The Lifetime film premiered Saturday night, Nov. 15, as fans flooded social media with their disgust.

The controversial biopic of the late R&B icon has been one of the latest low-budget TV films that has been questioned by fans.

According to VH1, other highly criticized films produced recently include The Brittany Murphy Story, Saved By the Bell and CrazySexyCool: The TLC Story.

Saturday's film did feature some positive aspects of Aaliyah's life, but most of the story concentrated on her infamous relationship with R. Kelly.

 


MStars News previous reported that Aaliyah's family were not a part of the biopic and did not approve the film, opting for a big-screen film.

Aaliyah: The Princess of R&B Executive Producer Wendy Williams said, "What we're not showing you is the tastelessness of a plane crash and we're not going into deep some of the things that would ruffle the family's feathers."

Aaliyah died in 2001 at 22. She was on the rise to becoming one of the most influential music icons of this time.

MStars News wants to know, what did you think of the biopic? Are you upset? What would you change about the film? Did you like the characters? Did you like it at all? Sound off in a comments below.
