Oh no! Zendaya is no longer set to play the late R&B singer Aaliyah in a Lifetime biopic. But why? Was it because the family of Aaliyah did not agree with actress playing her, or was is because Lifetime pulled the plug on the upcoming movie?
Luckily, neither! As sad as we were to hear the news about Zendaya pulling out of the project, it had nothing to do with disagreements from the family. While the family has been very vocal about their concerns about a biopic about Aaliyah, they certainly had no issue with Zendaya. .
