One day away from the Grammy Awards, ABC News confirms that Whitney Houston, the one time mega-star of music and movies, has died at the age of 48. Houston's own publicist, Kristen Foster, confirms her death but the details surrounding it are still a mystery.

For over 10 years, from the mid '80s to around 1997, Houston ruled the pop charts with hits like "I Wanna Dance with Somebody," "Greatest Love of All" and "I Will Always Love You," and the box office with films like The Bodyguard and Waiting to Exhale.

Since the late '90s however, Houston has been known for her tragic downward spiral at the hands of drugs, which ravaged both her voice and appearance and caused a decade's worth of erratic and off-putting behavior. In her prime, Houston won two Emmy Awards, six Grammy Awards, 30 Billboard Music Awards, 22 American Music Awards during her record-breaking career. She has sold 200 million albums worldwide.

What's the bet that we'll suddenly be hearing a lot of Whitney Houston songs on the radio for a while

Wise words, that you might have to die for! You spoiled my day... I'm not too big a fan of her music. Then again I don't listen to radio. Is that why I'm so socially out of touch? :p
 
i know its rough but i saw this joke on my mates BBM profile pic

"Have you heard Whitney Houstons new single? It's called "Bodybag"."
I was like lol thats not cool XD/X(
 

epic winning!!!

Anyway, so another person died from drug use. Now she's a hero...big whoop...whatever...if you use drugs and die from it you were stupid to begin with. point. you'll get no adulation from me.

Also, notice how these pop stars drop like flies from drug use...yet, people in rock/metal bands (dave mustaine, keith richards, steven tyler, ozzy etc) keep going and going and going, despite their extreme drug use. See, pop is for wussies...lol
