Whitney Houston

[Jules1973]

A few sites are reporting she died at the Beverly Hilton and are hinting it was drugs but one said unconfirmed suicide.

Yeah, have Fox on now and they are showing the Bev. Hilton

[lisalouver]

Fox news is reporting that she was at the Beverly Hills Hilton for Clive Davis pre-Grammy party that is just getting underway there now

[desertangel]

What???? LOL That is a joke, right?

Probably true, he was in the picture they showed of her last night on Fashion Police.

[Ted Challinor]

Ray-J? ...Is that the dude who made a porno tape with Kim Kardashon-the-side? I'm the other side of the Pond, so please, WTF was he doing there?
BTW neilmpenny, don't you like Whitney's music?

[DrPickles]

Now CNN is saying Ray J's publiscist was not anywhere near.

some party that must be right about now....

[smg]

What???? LOL That is a joke, right?

I'm just hearing bits of it on the news, seems like the statement was quickly retracted and he is denying it.

[cash]

looks like she died in LA which is good because we will see the death certificate.

[mstee2u1972]

I kept having a very strange feeling today that something bad was going to happen. I always get this same feeling before I hear of a death.I am in shock---she's an around the way girl--from East Orange, NJ. I am from Newark, NJ and remember going to her church back in the day where she sang in the choir--Abyssinian Baptist Church on Waverly Ave. in Newark. God bless you Whitney--love you forever ♥

[moutaindigit]

All the stations are announcing this!

RIP Whitney!

Apparently now retracted, gossip obviously going overboard at the moment

[MorbidChrissy]

Ray-J supposedly went out with Whitney. Like, they hooked up. Very strange. Apparently they were together the last few days. I don't know if that's true. There are so many different reports out there at the moment.

[Ted Challinor]

Are there any more reports as to how the Clive Davis party is going....?

[Nebula]

It's like the Amy Winehouse effect... you're shocked at first, then it sinks in, and you realize that in some way, you were always expecting it. Actually, I've been mourning Whitney for years (much like Michael Jackson). The Whitney I knew growing up died years ago. So sad.

[OMyStarz]

Um, she's 26 years older in the second picture. Nobody looks the same in their 40s as in their 20s. She appears to have aged pretty normally, aside from the obvious boob lifts and other platic surgery.

My thoughts exactly...how can they compare two pics 26 years apart?

Cheek implants are really obvious, and I thought celebrities usually made their noses smaller. Hers got bigger.

RIP

[lisalouver]

TMZ posted a video last week of her out with Ray J for real though. She didnt look too bad then

[Town Without Pity]

Man, I leave to take a shower and come back to this....and you guys were all updated already....I had the TV on all day and didn't hear a thing till I saw it from FAD on FB....It's sad, she used to have a one of a kind voice it's a shame drugs ravaged it. I would imagine it's drug related. May she RIP now that she has the monkey off her back. She carried alot of saddness for the last several years.

Didn't see this link up yet, but it was on the FB FAD site....something was going on last night....

[The Lucky One]

I hope she has finally found the greatest love of all now was truly her self.... RIP

I heard it is to die for!

[michael d]

Tragic. Sadly I wasn't surprised when I saw the headline.

RIP Whitney

[Ted Challinor]

Chrissy .."Hooked up" ? - unfortunate turn of phrase given the potential circumstances of her death

[Ted Challinor]

Town Without Pity - can you tell me when you're next stepping into the shower , so I can go to tmz for 10 mins.....

[RonJ]

TMZ saying signs of foul play. Paramedics performed CPR to no avail and she was pronounced dead at 3:55 PT.

[trishsixxm]

Yes he is. He's a creepy guy too. JMHO. I wouldn't be surprise if it turns out to be a suicide.

[Deathgoddess]

So sad! I am shocked, but I shouldn't be. I have never understood the backlash at Bobby Brown, Whitney wasn't a kid when she met him, she was a grown woman that made her own choices. I have always had a feeling she was a lot rougher around the edges than her management team was comfortable with, so they gave her a new image to sell a product. I remember watching her show WAAAAYYYYY back in the day and she was always irate and ready to fight with someone.

I also don't think she looked that bad in that recent picture that was posted, I mean she was almost 50, she still looked beautiful! I feel bad for her daughter, especially since she is going to be kicked around in the tabloids all over again.

[Finnegan]

holy crap!

TMZ says NO signs of foul play (looks like it was a typo - it says to foul play)

[Metal Mel]

Bet they are scrambling at the Grammies to put something together for tomorrow night.....

Yep, press conference says the same thing.

[KarmaKat]

Just told my daughter (13yrs) the news. She asked how, then without even a second of hesitation said "crack wasnt it".
RIP Whitney, may all your demons be gone.

[Jules1973]

According to Fox then her body is still at BH hotel ... so we'll find out more later I guess

[mysterygoddess1978]

R.I.P. Whitney
Growing up in the 80's, she was always one of my favorites!

[GravesEnd]

I live very close to the Beverly Hilton Hotel. Only a mile at the most. I could hear the helicopters outside but didn't realize until I saw on the Internet.

[Jules1973]

Was she spposed to be performing at the Grammys?

[ChefCookChemist]

I'm so shocked that we just lost the greatest voice of all time. Even though its not confirmed, drugs claim yet another life in my opinion.

[Bbeelzebub]

I can't wait to see the first pics of Ray J being walked out of the hotel in cuffs all strung out. This is about to get real!


CNN is saying they were holed up in there for the past two days. I highly doubt they were playing bridge.

[blondehart]

Very sad, but not all that surprising.

[RaRaRamona]

I agree

I doubt it. Wasn't her tour cancelled?

[Sam]

She did it to herself!!!

[SelenaFan]

I couldnt care less how Bobby Brown is doing. Apparently he is still on with his concert Feel bad for the daughter tho.

RIP Whitney Houston

It's about time!!!

[Jules1973]

I have no idea, just with her being at the Bev. Hilton just thought she may have been

[Brianruns10]

Here's an idea for a drinking game: a shot every time a grammy winner mentions Whitney Houston in their acceptance speech.

Actually, that may be a little dangerous...

[MirrorDimly]

Hers was the first concert I ever attended. RIP - not shocked, really, but sad. I hope she didn't off herself due to the pressure of not being able to hit her notes properly (alluded to in an earlier post).

[aLiLdirt]

I must admit the photos of the late Houston from her outing Thursday night did not paint a picture of sobriety. Silently, I hoped that she'd rise above whatever was haunting her and eventually get better.
Although now not living, I do feel she is in a better place and finally free!
Very sad

[Cybele]

I was always a huge fan of Whitney's music, definitely not of her life choices tho. Another piece of my childhood is gone....

No, at Clive Davis' Grammy party, tonight. Looks like they might want to see if they can get Jennifer Hudson for the gig now.
