Actress Yara Shahidi recently channeled the late Aaliyah in a new photo that the Grownish star shared on Instagram on Monday (Mar. 2).

“Sneak peek of Zoey ~at her best~ in THIS week’s SPRING FINALE  #grownish *No Timbs were hurt in the making of this episode,” Shahidi wrote in the caption of the photo. 

The NAACP Image Award-winning actress was teasing a forthcoming episode of ABC’s Grownish. In the photo, Shahidi is dressed in a Tommy Hilfiger tube top along with matching pants and boxers. She also had her hair styled as what was known as Aaliyah’s signature hairstyle.

The outfit that Shahidi wore in the picture was very similar to a Tommy Hilfiger outfit that Aaliyah posed in years ago. The singer was a part of Tommy Hilfiger’s All America Tour. She also was featured as a model in a myriad of Tommy Jeans ads. Check out the photos of Aaliyah below.
