- Whitney Houston was one of the biggest singing stars of her generation, but her life was cut short 10 years ago when she was found dead in the bathtub of her Beverly Hills hotel. Now, we’re learning more about the tragic circumstances of her final days. She was staying at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in the days leading up to the 2012 Grammys, where she was set to perform. Inside Edition spoke with Gerrick Kennedy, author of the new book “Didn’t We Almost Have It All: In Defense of Whitney Houston.”
10 years already. What a tragedy. Truly one of the greatest voices ever. Her rendition of the National Anthem during the halftime of the Super Bowl is beyond reproach. Of course "I will Always Love You" is one of the greatest songs ever. The world lost a great one when Whitney passed.
Yes! That was the most amazing renditions of the National Anthem ever. Such a beautiful voice.💓🌹 I thought it was disrespectful of the man who discovered her, Clive Davis and all the others who thought it was appropriate to attend his pre-Grammy party after learning she'd died.
She was an amazing woman. Loved her voice and personality
Her daughter died too....
Whitney's genes will never be passed again...forever silenced
Funny, I have her version of the national anthem downloaded on my iTunes. I have yet to hear someone sing it half as great as Whitney. There likely won’t be another who could top it.
@@SUGAR_XYLER I almost want to dislike your post because of how true it is and very sad. Makes me cry. Feel bad about “liking” something so terrible.🥺
10 years ALREADY?
This tells you how fast life is moving. Another 10 years will be here before you know it. Go live that life you planned to live now. Life goes very fast.
Jesus is coming back sooner than you think, you might want to get right with God by repenting and turning away from your sins first❤️❤️, i love you all!!

Live life as yu can ..and already dead , so..
Celebrities often tell their employees; hairdressers,bodyguards, chefs, etc . To not bother them especially when doing things such as sleeping , showering and those sorta things . I’m not surprised the hairdresser was even hesitant to go check up on her .
@@brodie2005thegamer Katy Perry isn't dead..
@@brodie2005thegamer That's definitely a hoax, she's alive and well. Just Google her and you'll see.
@@brodie2005thegamer Katy Perry is very much alive
@@brodie2005thegamer Not sure where you got your information from but Katy isn’t dead.
@@brodie2005thegamer uhhh. I see where this is going. I checked something because when you Google a person and it says anticipated death, that means it was planned like Whitney. Even fresh prince told us Whitney was gonna die in the shower. Do you remember that episode?
Her singing was incredible back in the day and her music will always live on.
the media did Whitney Houston so bad they always talked bad about her except when she was doing good.
You so right.
Exactly!!
They always wait until the tragedy struck to show fake love, they did Michael Jackson the same way.
@@spotlightspanther FACTS💯
@@spotlightspanther so true !!
Can’t believe it’s been 10 years already. She passed the day before my birthday. I remember going home and hearing it on the radio. May she and Bobbi Kristina rest in peace 💗🕊
She died on my birthday. 😔😭
She passed on my birthday 😭😭 I've listened to her on my bday for the past 10 years
You don't "Rest in Peace" just becuase you can't handle the truth. Wake Up and stop using "Rest in Peace" as a pathetic excuse to write off someone death becuase it's much more serious than that.. Thank you
Ikr. Happy birthday
waite a minute, she died 10 years ago.... my gosh time flies.....
It always felt like she was still alive. Her music is so timeless whenever you hear it, it doesn't feel "retro" or "classic" or "out of place", it always fits in .
It doesn't seem like 10 years, feels like yesterday. I remember seeing the special report come on tv. I was in shock and sadness. Whitney is a iconic. She will always be remembered by that lovely voice and beauty. 💕
Exactly. Feels fresh.
Yeah
I know ten years feels more like yesterday. I got the covid booster shot on ten year anniversary of her passing, she really had the voice from god.

Crack is wack
I can't believe it's been 10 years. There will never be such a beautiful and effortlessly talented musician quite like Whitney.
I still listen to her music on the radio. Can't believe it's been 10 years since she passed away. May her soul Rest in Peace 🙏🏽💔😢
There will never be anyone like Whitney Houston 😔
You're absolutely right. There isn't anyone today that will ever match her talent. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
I still can't believe Whitney passed away on my birthday. Every year I celebrate and can't help but think of her passing. She was a true legend.
If you don't see it on the Other Whitney Houston thread on YT,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY 🎂
Happy Birthday internet stranger 💓 she's not here but we have her music❤
Do celebrate your b day with Whitney cuz I would if she died on my bday
Thank you for the birthday wishes 🥰🥰😘😘
@@hoshimaruhajime7933 Yes every year I listen to some of her music 💕
It really hurts every time we hear her on the radio at work.
Agreed
I heard "I have nothing" today in the UPS store...I got chills
I can't believe it's been 10 years!!! Man time goes by fast. It's sad how her life ended. Her addictions took her life but her music and her talent is what she must always be remembered for.
If time can be brought back , Whitney should have totally seperated from her husband back then and continue her singing career instead.I just imagine how many more songs can she made .I miss her .
Bobby wasn't her downfall. She was a junkie when they met.
@@DJRenee besides from being an addict, people don't understand or get it doesn't matter the money a celebrity has, happiness is always the key to survival in staying a float in any relationship once her relationship with Bobby brown started to deteriorate that alone in itself caused her downfall, the drugs just made the process quicker.
@@DJRenee and Hollywood was her downfall. And other celebrities who were trying to steal her shine.
A lot of people blame Whitney’s downfall on Bobby, but the truth is - Whitney was an adult who made her own decisions.
Undeniable talent but Whitney was an addict before Bobby came along. She introduced him to the world of drugs. She was a beautiful flawed woman just like so many of us. May she rest in peace 🕊
It's really been 10 years??? Damn, I remember when they first announced her death. It seems unreal that she and Michael been gone for so long
Still fresh
Ik ik
One of the greatest voices in history, her legacy will never be forgotten
I was just talking today about her, it really saddens me that she’s gone, she always going to be my favorite singer, every time they would play her song at the club I always had a great time with my friends, I still do every time I listen to any of her songs.
She clearly needed help and no one says or do anything about it. I feel like her husband and family should have done more.
She didn’t have a husband
You can’t help a junkie who refuses to get help.
@@QueenEsther414 That’s the truth that people don’t realize.
She was a crack head
@@QueenEsther414 but except she did ask for help multiple times no one was there for her
We lost a true gem when we lost Whitney! A rare talent! RIP Whitney. 💜
She was the best.
yep, at getting high.
Whitney was a legend. Say all you want but Whitney was a walking W on 80s music
Whitney Houston was born a star. Mariah Carey, Janet Jackson and Madonna couldn't hold a candle to her. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
I was a freshmen in high school when I was visiting my godparents' home when I saw the news about her death. I was devastated because I would play her music every morning going to school
For the last 3 years I have had a playlist of her evergreen songs...
She will always be iconic to every generation... rest in peace beautiful
Can’t believe they still had that party
Of all of the celebrity deaths Whitney Houston's death hurt me the most. I've never been so hurt over a person I didn't know in my life. It took over a year before I was able to listen to her music again without breaking down crying.💔
Don't forget MJ and Prince.
@@csic123 they said for them its just Whitney…
A decade. I feel old. Ugh I miss her.
Something about having a party while a musical legends body is downstairs just rubs me the wrong way.
Agreed.
The fact that Clive, somebody who held a great influence over Whitney‘s career, went and decided to go on with the party while her body was still in the hotel room and call it a “tribute” is absolutely disgraceful! 🤬
The industry doesn't care about you, they'll use you until you can't be used anymore, and even in death, they show no sympathy for you because all along you was their puppet and didn't even know it because of the money and fame that distracted you from being conscious and aware of the shady games to play to manipulate in silence. It's all a game and it's rigged.
@Carpe Diem yeaa, she wasn't money making star, whose around music industry move.
Thank you.
It really was gross how they did that. Whitney always said Clive was like her father in the music industry yet he couldn't be bothered to cancel his Pre-Grammy party after she literally died. Sad.
Rip Whitney Houston 😢 🙏
She is a legend and icon there will never be another Whitney her voice was amazing and like no other my heart broke when she died
In that moment the world lost the most amazing singer 💔😢
I truely pray for Whitney's soul to be at peace because she was undoubtedly blessed with one of the most angelic voices of all time .
HAVE MERCY ON US MY FATHER IN HEAVEN WHITNEY, WHITNEY miss you my sister RIP.
Happy anniversary I will miss Whitney Houston when she died when I was 6 R.i.p Whitney Houston 💀
Drugs and alcohol ruined her voice. So sad. This didn't need to happen.
His brother introduced her the drugs without knowing the consequences which is sad and changed everything.
Actually it was probably the cigarettes that ruined her voice.
Blame Bobby Brown
This is why you should NEVER do drugs and alcohol, its pointless.
@@NDB82 Adele smokes and has been smoking cigarettes since before she was famous. I think it was the other thing Whitney was smoking that shot her voice. Trust me, I've known a couple people who smoked that stuff and their voice did not sound great at all.
Most amazing voice of our time. RIP
She sang the best National Anthem ever!
I always feel she's still alive when I listen to her songs....the diva the world will never have💔
she had the best pipes of any female singer on the planet before all that coke.
can we stop bringing up her drug issue, it was more to her than that. seems to be one of the things people tend to pay attention more to, people can change & she did.
@@davidstockman1456 Yes and Avril herself would agree with op
@@talkswithfayyxx3212 kind of hard to ignore it when it’s the reason she’s a rotting hunk of meat now. Though it’s understandable since especially back then during the 70s-00s, drugs we’re normal and among celebrities, almost a status thing. I don’t know of any famous singer from that time that *didnt* do drugs
@@kaleycooper9111 It’s actually way more prevalent now.
@@kaleycooper9111 Back in the 70s and up many celebs drug use was swept under the rug or were encouraged to get clean. Depending on the artist it damaged their reputation to know they used drugs. Whitney was one of those people that had a long drug problem but it was kept secret until it couldn't be hidden anymore. Now these days a lot of artists promote drug use and glorify it.
When I knew what happened I was truly upset me and my dad was talking about this earlier and my dad was talking about her last song I Look To You (2009) and he said if you listen to the lyrics it’s sounds like she was suffering back then. I was also shocked to learn that her daughter also passed similar way to Whitney back in (2015) it’s truly sad.
So everybody saw she was messed up and nobody took her to the hospital? Smh
Once in a generation? More like once in a lifetime! There will never be another voice like Whitney’s
She left too soon she was an angel who’s music still stays with me to this day 💕
She was horrible
@@davidstockman1456 also a druggy
@@davidstockman1456 what makes you say that?
What did she even do to y’all? Y’all need a life hating on someone that do t even know y’all
@@bxxngan that’s right
I literally remember when I happened, I was beyond shocked. My mom died 9 months later.. it doesn't feel like 10yrs. It's INSANE how fast a decade comes and goes man. Jeez..
What a wonderful voice and lovely lady. She will forever be missed.
Damn none of us will ever see this kind of Talent for many years to come Whitney definitely had it God gave her the voice 🤣
Thank you Whitney for sharing your voice & leaving so many songs for our memories of U
And I will always 💞 U!!
I remember. Can't have possibly been 10 years. Was so unfair to lose her so soon -- and she was way too young to leave us.
"🎶And I will always love you!🎶" Still one of the best pieces of music around.
In her prime she was the greatest singer of all time easily
She is the Voice once in a life time!love her forever!
Rest In Peace Whitney, we miss you🕊
Whitney Houston has always been a favorite star of mine. I'd listened to her singing my whole life. She is an inspiration to in using my own singing voice! (Besides her BFF, Cece Winans.) It is hard to believe that it has been ten years since that tragic day. I will never forget that time when I heard about her sudden death. What a shock! I do still miss Whitney Houston after all these years...
Whitney just had that spark & magic that made you want to dance! 10 years seems like it just happened yesterday still can't believe it. Also , still can't believe Luther vandross is gone too. Whitney & Luther were the greatest , talented , 2 sad losses we have ever had in my opinion. Got to always remember Whitney will always love us & Luther always gave us a reason to believe in the power of love! Rip Whitney , bobbi , & Luther ! ( wanted to give luther a shout out even though this is about Whitney).
She was and is always a Legend in music history! Love you, Whitney!
There will never be another Whitney Houston 💔
When I listen to her, she always give me goosebumps. 💕 I love you Whitney. ❤️
This one is just terribly sad. Whitney was such a beautiful gal and her voice is still one of the greatest of all time. There’s just no comparison and there never will be. Hopefully she’s still singing in the heavenly grandstand.
I can’t believe it had already been 10 years! It feels like yesterday! I’m still not over it! 😭
I honestly miss her. She gave us a lot of great music and was such a great talent. I thought she was a treasure.
Despite who she was in this life I love her and her music she was so amazing May her soul rest in peace🙏🙏🙏🙏
She was the best singer!
She’s singing for heaven now 🙏❤️
Her legacy is so sad missing her
This feels like yesterday
Oh wow. It's been that long already. She was truly amazing singer ❤ I adored her so much. I feel bad that she was gone way too early.
Smh 😭😭😭Such a beautiful person, with a Beautiful voice.
I'm so happy to share her name. Rest in peace Queen.
Whitney Houston is such a massive icon in the music industry. AN WEEEEEEEEE WILL ALWAYS LOVE HEEERRRRRRRRRRRR
You can tell she's been going through it. And she's trying to hide it. She deserves so much more than to go out like this. Rest well queen 👑
Whitney Houston will always be my favorite.💕😭
Rest well woman of all time ..greatest hit no other voice like urs ...still can't believe ur gone
Congratulations Whitney on being 10 yrs sober!!!
Queen Whitney was/is the diva of all diva's every time she sung it was like hearing a part of god singing!!!!
We miss you so much Whitney ❤️ 😢 one of the greatest singers of all time she is in a better place now
Her song I will always love you is so emotional. I remember listening to her songs all the time with mom and that one always made me really sad. But your love is my love made me happy. I can't believe I was 6 when she died. So sad.
What a sweet pure soul filled with such pain and sadness. Everyday without Whitney in the world is a day without joy.
WOW. it's been a decade💔🕊
Where did all the time go? It doesn't seem like it's been 10 years since Whitney Houston passed away. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
Such an incredible and amazing human being ❤
~RIP whitney... 🙏😇
~we miss u & ur amazing voice..!
Could of mentioned her most IMPORTANT legacy no matter the circumstances, Bobbie Christina
Wow 10 years already 🥺 rip angel!! we miss you ✨
Rest In Peace Whitney. You will always be missed and cherished. 😭😔❤️
:( she was very beautiful and so gifted!! r.i.p. Queen ❤️
Sad so many Legends lost in my lifetime.
Her voice was totally unique. Stunningly unique.
QUEEN DIVA, NONE OTHER... We LOVE You, yes we miss you, but you gave us the Best preformances like no other, no one can come close. Your gifts came from On High. The many videos that you left behind will last throughout eternity. We Love you, you changed the music industry and the listening audience. Forever our Queen! ( Thank you momma Cissy Houston for grooming the Best Female Performer)
I was just nine when I first heard her in 83. I tried to sing like her growing up. I wanted that voice. I can't shake this felt like I lost a family member.
That performance of IWALY at the Diva's Live 99 show, I'll never forget.
Leave Whitney alone.
It's disrespectful because it's the 10th anniversary of her death and they'd rather talk about the drugs and problems and not her legacy which is her impact on music. She paved the way for a generation of singers/artists. But no they do the opposite and they why they continuously get sued. It's tragic what happened to Whitney Houston and was young when she died I just wish she got the proper help/guidance she needed the most before her demise.
She will always be one of my favorite artists!
may she continue to rest in peace love to her and her family
Man I remember when she passed can’t believe it’s been 10 years miss her rest easy Whitney we will always love you.
Time flies...feels like yesterday. Watching this video sure tell us a lot about life, the show must go on and it did went on without her that night of her passing. Don't let anyone steal your joy.
Still feels like it just happened 💔😢
OMG 😆 it seems you were a really good fan 🥹
@@donaldclifford6782 I still am ❤️
Just wait another 10 years and you'll still see people talking about this
Time really does fly 10 years seems just like yesterday…I mean Kobe Bryant has been dead two years already that’s crazy too. No one is promised tomorrow. Live your life to the fullest and be Kind 🙏🏾🙏🏾
It always takes me a few minutes to realize Kobe isn't here anymore.
WOW ... 10 YEARS already since we lost this ICON! 😥😥😥 I'll never forget that day when I learned of her death, I was absolutely devastated! 💔
RIP Whitney! 💐🕯I will always love you... 💖
You, and your music, will always live in my heart ❤
I still listen to her everyday my whole life ❤
Her music makes my days better
Never take life for granted, because we may never know when we will see light again. Life is so precious that we often think that this will be a last birthday, a last wedding, a final graduation, etc. Never Take Life For Granted.
I think it was really tacky and tasteless to carry on with the Grammy party while her body was still cold upstairs in the hotel. Very disrespectful towards an icon like her. Sad…
America lacks compassion
