Bookmark topic
LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Whitney Houston, who ruled as pop music's queen until her majestic voice and regal image were ravaged by drug use, erratic behavior and a tumultuous marriage to singer Bobby Brown, died Saturday. She was 48.
Beverly Hills police Lt. Mark Rosen told reporters outside the Beverly Hilton that Houston was pronounced dead at 3:55 p.m. in her room on the fourth floor of the hotel. Her body remained there and Beverly Hills detectives were investigating.

she was indeed an amazing singer. I saw her several times in her early years before she met Bobby Brown, and I still reckon IMHO that was her downfall, sadly... he has alot to answer for.
R.I.P.
edit:
this was one of my fav tracks in those early days, and also what I remember seeing in those days... an excellent version of the more commercial offerings of the same track.
When info about people passing on is posted here I'm sad but some hit home more than others, and this is definitely one of those

Shame another troubled singer. I am ashamed to say I used to have a Bobby Brown album. He treated her bad

Yes so young. She was a great singer but her music was not for me.

So many famous talented people lead troubled lives. I always thought Whitney was a stronger person little did I know.

I'm sure he'll be sorry/unhappy for this event, but I doubt he will openly take responsibility.
I followed her from "how will I know"/"I wanna dance with somebody" and other early songs and also the great soundtrack of the bodyguard and it was so sad to see the decline, despite her great voice. I couldnt face going to see her at the O2 a couple of years back as I knew I would be dissapointed, and the feedback from those events confirmed it.
but... history sometimes shows that this is the way the greats go... (elvis presley, kurt kobain, michael hutchence etc etc) and there is nothing we can do...

She did a concert last year in Birmingham and she lost her voice. Yes Michael Hutchence,Amy Winhouse,Kurt Kobain,Jim Morrisson,Michael Jackson,Phil Lynott they all did drugs in some way
