    Only 48.

    http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/46355454
    Whitney Houston, who reigned 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.

    Publicist Kristen Foster said Saturday that the singer had died, but the cause and the location of her death were unknown.

    The drugs ruined her voice definitely, big shock for her to go though

    She had a voice and nothing else.

    Tragic that she attracted what she did.

    RIP

    Very sad news :( Whitney Houston RIP



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 37,316 ✭✭✭✭the_syco


    No doubt her latest album will have record sales. Death does that to a lot of singers; they die, and they become more famous :pac:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 35,514 ✭✭✭✭efb


    Even Kevin Cosner couldn't save her

    Houston, we have a problem.

    Once she got involved with Bobby Browne it was downhill from there.

    She was a singer. An entertainer. Not known for something evil or fuc*ed up. Geez, if one of your relatives passed you'd be quickly too tell me to f**k off. Show some respect you ass.

    An icon of her time and an inspiration for many. May she find the peace in the next world she never could in this.

    Was she one of your relatives?

    I think the "She brought it on herself" comments are more ****ed up than a few cheesy puns. It hasn't even been confirmed her death was drug-related. Even Amy Winehouse didn't have drugs in her system when she died.

    Very sad really, may she RIP, despite her success things went badly for her, a wonderful singer.

    Saw her in concert last year, she was a mess, compared to what she used to be.

    HUMAN DECENCY...ever hear of it?

    I mentioned relatives because lets take an example, say your mother died and I turned around making a joke. You think that would be a laugh ;)

    This is only about showing, someone who dies, respect.

    It's so often the best that end in tragedy (not just singers)
    I love her music.
    R.I.P Whitney


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 813 ✭✭✭CaliforniaDream


    I was shocked to hear this. Just because she did drugs doesn't mean this isn't a surprise.
    I loved some of her earlier stuff. She had an amazing voice.

    RIP and condolences to her family.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,415 ✭✭✭RoryMac


    Shocking news :o

    Won't be able to listen to the radio without her sh!te songs being played for the next week!
