#OnThisDay December 31, 1998

Aaliyah appears on the MTV Total Request Live Top 100 Countdown for all the hits for the year of 1998 in preperation of the coming of the new year (1999).

At 11pm EST on this day, she later goes down to the street level and is seen sporting her 1999 New Years glasses and dressed from head to toe in an all black outfit (coat, gloves and all), preparing for the countdown to begin.

This is how a bunch of weird losers from YouTube celebrate the New Year: sober, dropping a decorated watermelon out a window. 🍉 And we all agree, if you’re going to “drop a ball” at midnight, it should ACTUALLY drop... and smash into a million fruity pieces. 😎 Happy New Year! (One of our moderators, Malcolm, was rooting for the melon to survive its New Years plummet. I’m sorry to report that it really, really did not.) Thanks to Katie and Kevin for joining us and filming extra angles! How did you spend New Year’s Eve? #happynewyear #newyearseve #balldrop #2020 #randomencounters https://www.instagram.com/p/B69huZOpnnQ/?igshid=55vgxdr4019b

                                                    “And the Great White Way went dark.”

December 1917 - Broadway/Time Square - French paper “Le Miroir” -  photos of before and during WW1, for an article on the impact of war on America, and especially the dimmed-out NYC.

On a side note:  The coldest ball drop ever recorded was in 1917. The wind chill at the time was -18 degrees, and the high of the day was 6 degree! The celebration went dark due to a wartime coal shortage, but the ball was still lowered — and New Yorkers still partied with “tin horns and feather ticklers and confetti”
