In a frequency that is striking for soul singers, Whitney Houston sang from love-rarely from the Platonic or altruistic. Already at the beginning of her career, her songs were called “You Give Good Love”, “I Wanna Dance with somebody (who love me)” and “The Greatest Love of All”. The demanding in love corresponded to the wasteful handling of her singing talent, which was of beguiling naturalness and may have been driven too spectacularly through the octaves instead of glowing calmly in ballads.
On August 9, 1963, Whitney was born in Newark, New Jersey as the daughter of Cissy Houston. Dionne Warwick was her cousin, Aretha Franklin the patentant. So it was the First Family of Gospel. Whitney sang when her mother appears, in 1979 with Chaka Khan, later with the group of material. At the same time, she worked as a model. In 1983 she signed the record mogul Clive Davis. In 1984 the single “Hold Me” was released as a test balloon, a duet with the big Teddy Pendergrass. Houston’s debut album fell at a time when they thought in the music industry in platinum awards and millions. “Whitney Houston” was produced in 1985 for the mainstream market and met the expectations: 13 million copies sold in the United States were also a kind of natural event at the time.
“Bodyguard” and “I will Always Love You”
One can say that the consultants with “Whitney” (1987) and the moderately modernized “i’m your baby tonight” (1990) did everything right. In between was the hit “One moment in time”, the song for the Olympic Games in Seoul, 1988. 1991 Sang Whitney at the Super Bowl final. She was finally the Golden Girl of the United States. The following year she even triumphed with the smiled -at appearance in the film “The Bodyguard”. A Schmonzette with Kevin Costner, who gave her surprisingly soft -bitter moments by lying her diva between the imaginary bitch and need for protection. A battery that she probably did too well in life.
The play “I will Always Love You” comes from the soundtrack of the extremely successful film. Favorite song of a generation of boys (and no longer very young) women and spectacles of Houston’s singing artistics. The solid dance floor song “I’m every woman” already looked banal.
“I am the devil myself”
Perhaps it was the marriage to the Bobby Brown goodbye that let Whitney’s life get out of hand. “I am the devil myself”she said once – but the devil made the schnapps and probably also cocaine and crack. Years later, private films were traded out of the bedroom, and I felt a domestic worker in immoral. Such accusations are common – but only where they fall on fertile soil. Whitney Houston’s film career developed unfortunate with “Waiting to Exhale” (1995) and “The Preacher’s Wife” (1995). The shiny gospel soundtrack for “Wife” was widely ignored.
It was not until 1998 that an album was released again with “My Love Is Your Love”. The crop can not only be read on the sales figures, but above all on the reports in the gossip press and on television. Whitney has been the mother of a child, daughter Bobbi Kristina, since 1993. Again and again you could see photos of the Deranged singer, who had been beaten by her husband and was heavily emaciated. In 2006 Houston spoke to confessional Oprah Winfrey and separated from Bobby Brown.
On the abyss – Whitney Houston Stirb in Los Angeles
Although the album “I look to you” was fallen in 2009, Whitney Houston went on a tour that got into a disaster. Snippers with her failing voice were soon spread over the Internet, and the singer was booed and laughed at at the concert in Berlin. The audience watched the tragedy stunned, the press stated at a loss to dismantle on the open stage.
On February 11, 2012, when the music nobility came to Los Angeles for the Grammys, Whitney Houston checked in with a retinue of family and friends at the Beverly Hilton Hotel. In preparation for the hype about the Pre-Grammy party, which is held every year by the Houston mentor Clive Davis, her assistant put a dress on her bed and left the hotel. At 3:35 p.m. Jones returned and found Houston with his face down in the bathtub. They tried to revive them before an ambulance arrived, but in vain.
The police who came to the hotel found an open bottle of champagne and a spoon with one “White, crystall -like substance”. This was a shock for her sister -in -law Pat Houston and other relatives because they believed that the pop diva had no drugs in their last days. Week later, the autopsy report revealed the death of Houston by drowning, heart diseases and cocaine use. There were additional traces of a muscle relaxan, Xanax, marijuana and an allergic medication in the body of the singer. She was only 48 years old. “We are sad to learn about the results of toxicology, although we are glad that we are now certain”the family said in an explanation Associated Press.
Unexplained questions about the death of Whitney Houston
Now, eight years after the world learned about the shocking death of Whitney Houston, there are still many secrets about what happened in her hotel room in Beverly Hills on February 11, 2012. Much of the forensic doctor’s report shocked her fans. Including the fact that the singer and actress suffered from a lung disease. She also wore a denture. The latter is not uncommon in drug and alcohol addicts. But there are other questions left. Who had delivered the drugs to her? Why did she take her? Was anyone else in the room? Has Houston been murdered?
Another surprising detail, from the report it was the statement that both objects from Houston’s room and their wallet were missing. “”[Der] California driver’s license of the deceased was taken from the wallet before I arrived in the handbag “it said. “Also before my arrival, most of the prescription medication bottles of the deceased were taken from a brown bag that stood on the table in the southeastern corner of the living room […].. “
Wounds on the face
It was also learned that Houston had wounds on his face when she was found in the bathtub. Specifically, it was about “Two superficial abrasions on the left side of her forehead and a superficial abrasion on the left side of the nose back”. The forensic pathologist Cyril Wecht explained that the water in the tub was so warm at almost 35 degrees that it does not believe that Houston was previously in the tub, but somehow fell into it and accidentally drowned. “I think she fell into this very hot water. This explains a small bruises in the left forehead area, some other pressure points on the face, including the light laceration on the lip, and the fact that she lay down with her face “he said.
Whitney Houston’s assistant, who had found the singer dead in the bathtub, later stated that the official version of the events was not complete: “Someone was in the room with her, had given her these medication and later found her drowned in the bathtub. The person turned the tap on it and left the room “said Jones. On the other hand, Jones could not explain who this person was exactly.
“I don’t think that [Whitney] died of drugs “said ex-man Bobby Brown to Rolling Stone. “She worked really hard to try to become a sober person.” Instead, he believes that “by simply [ein] broken heart” led to the death of Houston.
