Two ironies in this news. One is just a personal one, New Edition was in town last night with a
"we really need the money" reunion tour, so that was kind of weird. Bobby Brown decided an
hour before showtime that he would go on with the rest of the guys.

Secondly, how weird is it that Maya Rudolph is the next host of SNL either next weekend
or in the weeks to come shortly. She always PLAYED Whitney Houston in the past. This must
surely be her 9/11 moment for the show...Should she DO W.H. or not? Strange sitcho for sure.

She hosts this week. My bet is that she may mention Houston, but won't play her.

Exactly. One small step could have picked her up and let her lead an incredible life. She had so much talent to make so many people happy.

LOL...JOHN Belushi. Jim is alive and well. My faux pas.

While you're no doubt spot on, I instead was going for the cheap laugh by referencing one of her songs...

Now THAT is up for debate.

I've read several unsubstantiated reports that her ingestion of prescription medication (Xanax was specifically mentioned) and booze either directly (died from overdose) or indirectly (overdose cause her to drown) led to her death. All I can do is look back and shake my head at the waste of such a God-given talent...

So sad. Its even sadder she was dating Ray J at the time.

I read that too. WTF is Ray J thinking... I guess he was getting his cougar on. RIP Ms. Houston.
