RIP, Whitney.

I know she had her issues with drugs, but she is one I never thought would die like this. May she RIP.

It's sad, but not totally unexpected. Her life was a trainwreck for a long time.

She tried to get herself together, but like many, the relapses ultimately won out.

RIP, she was an amazing pop vocalist in her prime.

Incredible voice before the problems.

Whitney Houston and Jermaine Jackson sing on ATWT(2 minutes into the clip):

May she rest in peace.

I was in disbelief when I saw this come across the television screen, so tragic. I'm sure there will be some sort of tribute Grammys tomorrow, a lot of singers will be ready to participate.

Ugh! And a day before the Grammys. I wonder how fast they can pull a tribute out for her

When it was great, that voice would make you stop and listen ... it could melt butter.

Two of my favourite live vocal performances of her's:

My favorite Whitney song of all time:

Damn, damn, DAMN!! I was hoping this was another terrible Twitter hoax.
