I agree ,What poor taste in respect of her.I heard the news from WCBS 880 about her.I have to tune in tomorrow night to see what they say about her.

Shame she never really got to get over her addictions and make a stellar comeback...

I was always partial to "How Will I Know"... her vocals during the chorus were golden

Just a couple of days ago I stumbled upon her interview with Diane Sawyer and watched it for the first time. Poor Whitney couldn't beat the addiction. RIP

I read they used the party to pay tribute to Whitney. Clive cared about her very much.

Angry The music business is a tough business and a sad business

I Will Always Love You" singer died. She was 48. The timing of her death, the eve of the Grammys, the biggest music event of the year, makes the horrible news even more tragic. According to CNN, Houston was pronounced dead at 3:55 p.m. PT at the Beverly Hilton Hotel.

At the time of my posting her body is still at the Hilton Hotel, police, fans, and Paparazzi are surrounding the Hotel. Fame has a toll on a person, and drugs was an excape for her as it was for Fleetwood Mac band.

Show business is an insecure business, fame is always fleeting, old age, a fan base that may not stay with you. You have a major responsibilty to others in your support group. People depend upon you; one is riddled with insecurities, the pressues are enormous!

With a God given talent, Whitney is now with God and more so in the souls of those who heard her voice and know her talent.

I wonder if her version of Has Anyone Ever Written Anything For You will ever surface.

This is so sad, I was a huge Whitney Houston fan in the 90's
I saw some new pics of her yesterday and she looked like a mess
R.i.p Whitney, your beautiful voice lives on....

This is devestating! I was constantly pulling for her in my heart. The world has lost probably the best voice that ever was. She coud sing anything.....just a true God given talent. I'll never forget crying during her version of The National Anthem...

God bless her family....this is a pain they will never fully recover from.

I am so tired of drugs stealing the greats from us.....
RIP Whitney.
