It has been 14 years since we lost Whitney Houston, and the late singer is being remembered with a Barbie doll on what would have been her 63rd birthday.
The Barbie wears a body-hugging, light purple, knee-length dress, like the one the Grammy winner wore in her “I Wanna Dance with Somebody (Who Loves Me) music video.
The Whitney Houston Barbie is available now at Target, Walmart, and Amazon.
Back when Hugh Jackman was a young lad, he heard Whitney Houston sing I’ll Always Love You. At the end of the song, he heard something that convinced him that she was singing to the future Showman.
What is it? He hears the late singer belt out, “I’ll always love Hugh.” Do you hear it too? Or do you think Carly Simon wrote a song about him instead of Mick Jagger and Warren Beatty?
Before Whitney Houston was hoping for her big break as a singer, she got her acting break on Gimme a Break. You can tell the 20-year-old was going to be a star as she made her acting debut back in 1984?
Kari Michaelsen, who played Katie, wrote this about Houston, “Fun Clip of Whitney Houston and me opening a Boutique together on Gimme a Break in an Episode called ‘Katie’s Corner’ … Whitney, Thinking of you today ❤️ Your Light and Spirit continues to inspire me, and you are always in my heart.”
Tonight at 9p on Lifetime we get to see how The Houstons are trying to move on without Whitney Houston. The Houstons On Our Own takes place 3 months after the songstress died and Bobbi Kristina is trying to deal with the loss of her mother. The 19 year is dating her BFF Nick Gordon, who Whitney took in and raised like one of her own, and her aunt and uncle (Gary and Pat) don’t approve of him. Wait until she tells them that they are engaged?
For Mother’s Day The Houstons will travel from Atlanta to NY to see the matriarch Cissy and Krissy will visit her mother’s grave for the first time since the funeral.
It is an emotional episode as we see The Houstons now without out their shining star.
The trailer for Whitney Houston’s last film Sparkle is out and the Today Show had the first look at it this morning. To me it is the same old, same old. Seriously haven’t we seen that movie before and I am not talking about the original Sparkle?
This is not meant to sound as cold as it probably will, but who thinks the movie would be getting as much press now or do as well if she were still alive? Were you planning to go see when it comes out in August before she passed away?
