Yeah, Whitney Houston. I have to admit not being a fan of pop rock but I have to also admit that at the peak of her career, she had one of the finest female voices on the planet. Her rendition of the SSB at the Superbowl that year still gives me goosebumps.
Then she got hooked up with that black rapper who got her hooked on heavy drugs and ruined her life.
This topic always kind of leaves me sore as back in 1989, I had lunch in Jamaica Queens with her manager, for entirely different reasons, and I'm not sure if he was already managing her or not, like I said, I'm not really a follower of pop artists like her and Michael Jackson though I recognize their talent, but the two events are inextricably tied together to me.
Whitney might have become one of the greatest female vocalists of the 20th century, right up there with Barbara Streisand.

I was at the Beverly Hilton when she died. It was apparent at 8am that this was going to be her last day alive. She had been out clubbing the night before. Those who were with her pretty much knew it was the end. Very sad and very scary to watch.
I disagree. Musically brilliant people are often fragile and marrying or hooking up with the wrong person can have devastating consequences as it did with Whitney Houston.I have very little pity for those who basically kill themselves. Hers is a tragic story, to be sure, but it's also one that didn't have to happen. She chose to do drugs, no one forced her.
That said, she was an immense talent. Her performance in 1991 remains pretty much the "gold standard" for the National Anthem...

As I recall, both her voice, beauty and health had been long gone for at least a year or two before she died. As I recall, she was out partying all night doing heavy drugs and narcotics till daybreak then came back to her room, got in the tub and died, possibly drowned in the water. I hope they held her rapper buddy responsible. She was a beautiful girl, but unfortunately, very naive, gullible, innocent and susceptible.

Dolly Parton's maid.who is that one of the black rioters in Portland?
I guess I mean female singers in particular. Look at the history of great female singers who pick idiot men who abuse them. Whitney, Amy Winehouse, Shania Twain, Janis Joplin, Rhianna....there's a lot of them.Musically brilliant people are often fragile and marrying or hooking up with the wrong person can have devastating consequences as it did with Whitney Houston.
And what do you base this on?
I've worked with musicians, both professional, touring "name" acts and up and comers, and I saw no evidence to suggest that what you say is true. In fact, most touring bands tend to tour with their families (well, when not grounded by Covid, of course)...
