Just found out a second ago watching sky news, YAY! I'm the first to post this :tongue:
here's a link if you don't believe me; http://www.tmz.com/2012/02/11/whitney-houston-dead/

and it's trending on twitter

It's not clear what caused her death, I'm assuming it's drugs - she was pictured a few days ago looking disheveled.

It must of been Ramsey. I swear someone famous dies when he scores


That's Bin Laden, Gaddafi and Houston now, literally a lethal player.

R.I.P nevertheless.
Oh yeah, I just found out by someone's Facebook status, and I'm genuinely really shocked! She was only 48 for goodness sake! So tragic what the cause must have been :frown:. I've had My Love Is Your Love on repeat occasionally, as it's such a wonderful song. She was such a great singer :rip:

She should have stayed true to her roots, singing always was her heroin of joy, her fans stuck on through it, to them she was always pure ecstacy, even though she did start to crack up in the end.

LOS ANGELES 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, has died. She was 48.
Houston's publicist, Kristen Foster, said Saturday that the singer had died, but the cause and the location of her death were unknown.

News of Houston's death came on the eve of music's biggest night the Grammy Awards. It's a showcase where she once reigned, and her death was sure to case a heavy pall on Sunday's ceremony. Houston's longtime mentor Clive Davis was to hold his annual concert and dinner Saturday; it was unclear if it was going to go forward.
At her peak, Houston the golden girl of the music industry. From the middle 1980s to the late 1990s, she was one of the world's best-selling artists. She wowed audiences with effortless, powerful, and peerless vocals that were rooted in the black church but made palatable to the masses with a pop sheen.

Her success carried her beyond music to movies, where she starred in hits like "The Bodyguard" and "Waiting to Exhale."
She had the he perfect voice, and the perfect image: a gorgeous singer who had sex appeal but was never overtly sexual, who maintained perfect poise.
She influenced a generation of younger singers, from Christina Aguilera to Mariah Carey, who when she first came out sounded so much like Houston that many thought it was Houston.


God damn. Another great musician bites the dust. :frown:
