Always Missed
Bobby Brown, who divorced Whitney in 2007 recently recalled his “rough times” after his ex’s 2012 death.
Chemistry Class “She was the cutest girl I’d ever seen,” Kevin said. He rallied hard to get Whitney cast in The Bodyguard. “I couldn’t imagine anybody that didn’t want to kiss her.”
DURING her nearly 30year music career, singer Whitney Houston won eight Grammy Awards, 16 Billboard Music Awards and released 11 No. 1 singles. Her rendition of Dolly Parton's I Will Always Love You,” featured in her film debut, 1992's The Bodyguard, sold 12 million copies, making it the bestselling single ever by a woman. The recording topped Billboard's Hot 100 chart for a then-record-breaking 14 straight weeks. It also sold millions of downloads in the days after Whitney's tragic death at age 48, for a total of 20 million units sold. “I knew I had sung the sh*t out of it, the singer, nicknamed “The Voice, once said of the soaring ballad. “But I had no idea that that record would sell so much, so fast.
By the time she was found dead, face-down in a bathtub in Suite 434 at the Beverly Hilton hotel in Beverly Hills on Feb. 11, 2012, her career had been rocked by turmoil and her star had dimmed. Still, her death sent shockwaves through Hollywood, and celebrities were quick to share their emotional reactions to the devastating loss. “She was the ultimate legend,” said Beyoncé. “I, like every singer, always wanted to be just like her. So many of my life's memories are attached to a Whitney Houston song. She is our queen and she opened doors and provided a blueprint for all of us. God bless her.
