Celebrity tribute: Whitney Houston



Another year, another loss. Whitney Houston left us on 11 February 2012. In spite of her tragic personal life, Whitney remains one of the most successful black female of all times. With over 170 million albums sold worldwide, she was the first black female to appear on the cover of Seventeen Magazine in 1981 and is still the only singer to have seven consecutive number 1 Billboard 100 hits.

Here are 9 tell-tale signs that you're a fan of Whitney Houston:
  • You were born in the late 70's or 80's 
  • The Bodyguard  original soundtrack album was one of the first in your CD collection
  • or... you owned The Bodyguard audio and video tapes
  • You never forgot the fire scene in Waiting to Exhale 
  • You're not a native English speaker but you wanted to sing Whitney's songs so badly that you learned the language
  • Heartbreak Hotel is on your break-up playlist
  • You know what 1999 song contains the lyrics'Pack your bags and leave'
  • You will watch the movie Sparkle in August
  •  You secretly blame Bobby Brown for Whitney's tragic fall
