Whitney Houson dies at age 48

It does really seem like the really really good ones doesn't it? Just goes to show that fame isn't all its cracked up to be. It really isn't for everyone, everyone can't handle it.

damn.

Unbelievable. True music icon marred by personal issues.

[Doyle]

The art is always better than the artist. So... whos next?

Best rendition of the National Anthem ever at the Super Bowl in 1991.

I loved Whitney and I don't want to start an argument and I just wanted to post this because of what site this is, but this is my all-time favorite anthem actually:

[Bronn]

Kevin Costner failed, I guess...

[Jangler]

:confused:

[Woodcookedbbq]

Why can't they sing them like that anymore?

[Jackofalltrades]

Oh well, she did it to herself.

Man, super sad. I remember watching The Bodyguard as a kid and plotting on ways I could steal her from Kevin Costner and then Bobby Brown, lol. Really sad though.

She went from having that wholesome image to getting coked out with Bobby Brown, and now look who is still ticking - the one without any talent.

Was listening to msnbc and they said the AP is reporting she was in L.A. for the Grammys and was reportedly taken out of a club last night. Another report from (thegrio.com?) on msnbc said she was found in a hotel room... It's not sounding good.

Oh well, she did it to herself.

I don't think Jesus would have said that.

Beverly Hills PD said she was found in hotel room and unresponsive. Said crews arrived within 2 minutes of 911 call and couldn't revive her. Police said no obvious signs of drug use/paraphernalia, foul play, or any other criminal intent.

The one odd bit of news in the press conference, Ray J, was apparently her boyfriend and may have been the one who discovered her.

Just heard all of this on msnbc.

[Proudiddy]

...and then a guy from US Weekly says she sung at an event last night and didn't look/sound good and had been drinking.

SMH.
