Gloria Gaynor - 60

Gloria Gaynor rose to fame in the 70s Disco era,with several hits including I Will Survive, I Am What I Am, Can't Take My Eyes off You & Never Can Say Goodbye.
Gloria Gaynor is legendary for being the very first person to take a disco album to #1 on the billboard chart in 1975,and being the only person to ever win a special Grammy Award for Best Disco Record in 1980
Gaynor has sold close to 50 million records and what inducted into The Dance Hall of Fame in 2005.
Gloria Gaynor would always be famous for the hit " I Will Survive" which has become a pro feminist anthem,and would most likely be the anthem for any minority group till the end of time.

AALIYAH

was an American recording artist and actress. Introduced to audiences by R&B singer R. Kelly, Aaliyah became famous during the mid-1990s with several hit records from the songwriting-production team of Missy Elliott and Timbaland. She found success with her debut album Age Ain't Nothing But a Number, while introducing a "street but sweet" style which would become her trademark throughout her career followed by two more albums, One In a Million and the eponymous Aaliyah.

On August 25, 2001, Aaliyah and various members of her record company boarded a twin engine Cessna 402B (N8097W) at Marsh Harbour, Abaco Island, Bahamas to travel to Opa-locka Airport near Miami, Florida after they finished filming the music video to "Rock the Boat". The plane crashed shortly after takeoff about 200 feet (60 m) from the runway. Aaliyah, pilot Luis Morales III and the seven other passengers, including her hair stylist Eric Forman, Anthony Dodd, her security guard Scott Gallin, Douglas Kratz (a director of video production for Virgin Records), stylist Christopher Maldonado, Keith Wallace and Gina Smith (both employees of the Blackground label) died


A debut song for her: cry cry
(although it's originally her song, just modified)
