Whitney Houston Dead at 48 [VIDEO]
Whitney Houston, one of pop’s iconic singers whose career was derailed by drug use, has died at age 48. One of entertainment’s best-selling artists for more than a decade-and-a-half, Houston made the crossover from music to movies, starring in films like “The Bodyguard” and “Waiting to Exhale.” Her 1992 marriage to Bobby Brown routinely made gossip headlines, with Brown being arrested multiple times before their divorce in 2007. By the, Houston’s career had fallen apart to the effects of drug use. An attempted comeback in 2009 ended with a string of off-key concert performance and the cancellation of her world tour.
Houston was found dead at the Beverly Hilton hotel on Saturday afternoon. Jennifer Hudson and Chaka Khan will honor Houston with a tribute at Sunday night’s Grammy’s.
