Teena Marie found dead in California home found by her daughter.

Alia Rose is the daughter of R&B star Teena Marie and she herself followed in her mother’s footsteps and performing as a singer. The stage name she used was Rose Le Beau rather than Alia Rose. She was a Christmas baby and just celebrated her 19th birthday as well as Christmas day on December 25th. Her last tweet was “I’m about to pass the hell out,” so i guess she was indeed celebrating. And her mom tweeted the very sweet message,“19 yrs ago today, I was in labor! My heavenly father gave me the most glorious gift I could ever receive. A Baby girl on Christmas
