"Her vocal range, her ability to interpret songs, as well as her charisma made her an icon."

Her impeccable tuning inspired, with each song, a great confidence that immersed us in the maximum beauty of music.

Whitney Houston is dead. She was 48 years old. She could not win the battle with alchool and drugs that increasingly overshadowed her talent in the last years.

My conviction is  that when someone dies has the right to be remembered by the good feelings she or he awaked in our heart.

"She influenced a generation of younger singers, from Christina Aguilera to Mariah Carey, who when she first came out sounded so much like Houston that many thought it was Houston."
In the 90's, she was one pf the best singers pop |R&B

At her peak, Houston the golden girl of the music industry. From the middle 1980's to the late 1990's, she was one of the world’s best-selling artists. She wowed audiences with effortless, powerful, and peerless vocals.



The Bodyguard
Mick Jackson, 1992 



Her success carried her beyond music to movies, where she starred in hits like The Bodyguard.
She was working on a new album "On my own". Yesterday, Friday 10, she was  at pre-Grammy party 2012.




The day after, she was found dead by her bodyguard. A premonintory film? The Bodyguard witk Kevin Costner?





"She had the he perfect voice, and the perfect image: a gorgeous singer who had sex appeal but was never overtly sexual, who maintained perfect poise."

After Amy WinehouseMichael Jackson, Whitney Houston joins a group of unforgettable musicians and singers who died too soon.

"The world lost one of the great R&B and pop artists. Her stunning voice was a perfect combination of power, sensitivity, grace and beauty."
