MARSH HARBOUR, Bahamas (AP) -- R&B singer and actress Aaliyah died Saturday when a small plane that was to carry her and eight others back to the United States crashed after takeoff in the Bahamas, authorities said.

Eight were killed, and one critically injured man was flown to Florida for treatment, officials said.

"We find it devastating and most unfortunate that after having this world-famous star Aaliyah and her crew select the Bahamas as their choice location for her latest video, the project has climaxed on such a tragic note," said Minister of Tourism Tommy Turnquest, who happened to be visiting Abaco Island, where the plane went down.

Aaliyah's song "Try Again" earned her a Grammy nomination for best female R&B vocalist. She made her feature acting debut in the film "Romeo Must Die."

Bahamian national television quoted the civil aviation department as saying Aaliyah was among nine Americans on board.

The private plane was leaving the Marsh Harbour airport on a trip to Opa-locka, Florida, when it went down Saturday evening, said police spokesman Marvin Dames.

Abaco Island Chief Councilor Silbert Mills said those killed included two women and six men.

Islander Derek Russell, who worked for the group during the video shoot, said he got the artist's autograph before the accident.

"She's a nice girl, a friendly girl," he said.

The cause of the crash was unclear. Kathleen Bergen, a spokeswoman for the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration in Atlanta, said the plane was a Cessna 402 owned by Skystream, a company based in Pembroke Pines, Florida. She said the plane crashed at the end of the airport's runway at 6:50 p.m. EDT (2250 GMT).

Right now... Im just sad. Whenever someone dies I feel it.. no matter how big they are. She was an icon for R&B, she was their queen. Now I wasn't a huge fan, but I could appreciate her music, she was truly an artistic expression ready to explode. I'm just out of words. I'll have to let this sink in. RIP Girl!

Aaliyah, the 22-year-old Grammy-nominated R&B singer and actress, was killed along with seven others Saturday when the small plane they were in crashed shortly after takeoff in the Bahamas, according to police spokesman Marvin Dames.


The cause of the crash was not immediately known. The identities of the others killed was also not immediately released, but six were male and two were female, according to Abaco Island Chief Councilor Silbert Mills.

One critically injured man was flown to Florida. The Cessna 402's original destination was Opa-locka, Florida, officials said.

The plane was owned by Florida-based Skystream, according to Federal Aviation Administration spokeswoman Kathleen Bergen. Bergen said the plane crashed at the end of the airport's runway at 6:50 p.m. EDT.

"We find it devastating and most unfortunate that after having this world-famous star Aaliyah and her crew select the Bahamas as their choice location for her latest video, the project has climaxed on such a tragic note," said Bahamas Minister of Tourism Tommy Turnquest.

I had just been thinking about her because I watched her diary on MTV a couple days ago.  You know how thoughts just go through your head about various people.  I had been thinking about Aliyah and how her MTV diary was real corny, and what was up with her acting like that.  And then she died.  This is real sad.  RIP.  When someone makes a song that you really feel and added something to your life in some way, it really hurts to see them die.  Her songs bring back fond memories for me.  See ya on the other side.

this is so sad man, RIP Aaliyah.

Others killed in the accident included Aaliyah makeup artist Eric Foreman, 29, and Virgin Records representative Douglas Kratz, 28, according to Rahming. Two other women and three other men, including the pilot, died in the crash, while one man was airlifted to Jackson Memorial Hospital in Miami with serious injuries, Rahming said.

My God that horrible.

I was watching Americas Most Wanted last night and as soon as it went off the 10 O'clock news came on and said Aalyah died in the plane crash. I just saw her Diary a couple of days ago and she was talking about how she wanted her legacy to be and how she wanted people to think of her when she died. As soon as I heard of her death those words went through my mind. It was some freaky stuff. She was only 22 for God sakes and she had such a promising career as a musician and actress. I think she finished filming her new video "Rock the Boat" and already finished her part in Matrix 2. I was never a big fan of hers but my cousins out in Memphis idolize her and called me crying last night. I'm still in disbelief.


R.I.P. Aalyah

ABACO, Bahamas (CNN) -- As fans and friends mourned the death of a rising star, officials from the United States are scheduled to head to the Bahamas Monday morning to assist authorities in determining what caused the plane crash that killed 22-year-old singer and actress Aaliyah and eight others
