The legendary Whitney Houston has died, the singer’s publicist Kristen Foster told The Associated Press. She was 48 years old.
The cause of death is currently unknown. TMZ reports that she died at the Beverly Hilton hotel in Beverly Hills. Just days ago, she was seen with Monica and Brandy at rehearsals for Clive Davis’ pre-Grammy party.
Twitter was flooded with messages from her peers including Mariah Carey. “Heartbroken and in tears over the shocking death of my friend, the incomparable Ms. Whitney Houston,” wrote her fellow diva. “My heartfelt condolences to Whitney’s family and to all her millions of fans throughout the world. She will never be forgotten as one of the greatest voices to ever grace the earth.”

Back in the day, Whitney Houston was an undeniable force that could not be reckon with. She had the style, the grace, and most importantly the voice. I have a lot of good songs from her, but the best was One moment in time. At the 1988 Grammy’s she sany her heart out and this therefore became my theme song. Her talent was unmatched. Your music will live on RIP Whitney Houston!

i knew something was wrong when i seen her leaving that club…something just wasnt right with her…she had so much to live for..she never had the right support system, in my opinion. Ditto for Amy Winehouse.
Whitney will be missed terribly in music world. She was an inspiration to all artists. Torn.Just Torn.

The music industry is very fishy why are all the Legends dying at early ages and this is a day right before the grammys i cant help but think this was planned. The public will only believe what they hear but honestly in my heart i think there was foul play involved.
