Whitney Houston RIP - Page 2

Whitney was similar to Michael Jackson. Very easy to pick on, but I think the jokes need to take a break for a week or so out of respect. Not that any real disrespect has been done in this thread, but I've seen it already in other places.

RIP Whitney. I Will Always Love You helped me win a few "womanless beauty pageants" in high school.

I'm sorry, but I respectfully disagree on both. First of all, she never came close to Michael Jackson who made much more of an impact on global pop music than Whitney.

And the respect part, if only Whitney respected herself, her skills and her career more we wouldn't have this discussion right now.

another fine example of

So Sad. RIP, Whitney.

R.I.P. Whitney Houston...one of the most beauitful voices of our era.

CoreyD · 02-12-2012, 07:06 AM

I don't see how people on the news keep comparing her to Michael Jackson. Yes she came from same music era and legend but dang her self battles were a little different. I'd almost compare her to Elvis who died 6 years younger and was much of a positive icon and influence to singers today and most her younger songs were ways she dealt with self pain.
I also wonder how far this movie that was suppose to be released in August was, and if its still going to be released and how much now it brings in.

well, he tried, failed and then chose a quicker way

SteelCityBoy · 02-12-2012, 11:08 AM

I was never really a fan of Whitney in any such way and I won't stipulate on any cause of death....I will just simply say R.I.P Whitney. It is sad to see people who have it all end life so suddenly....

Cigarcop · 02-12-2012, 11:21 AM

Just goes to show yah, one Turd ( Bobby Brown ) in her life and down she went....Maybe he should be charged.

shilala · 02-12-2012, 11:25 AM

A gorgeous woman with amazing talent and a tortured mind.
May she find that peace in God.

I think Jim will be saddened to hear this.

Smokin Gator · 02-12-2012, 12:43 PM

I had heard the name before but didn't know who she was (yeah I know I am out of touch). I found a link to her singing the National Anthem before the Super Bowl... Wow!!! That was one pure voice.

May she rest in peace.
