So very sad. It was tragic when she married Bobby Brown and it is just as tragic that her life was cut so short. We have lost one of the truly great voices of our time.

No doubt she was one of the greats but unfortunately led a volatile lifestyle. Hope she finds peace now.

Illegal drugs destroy lives. Its breaks my heart when anyone dies so young after having lived a life struggling with drugs and what they do to lives and relationships.

When I lived in Japan I took my 5 year old daughter to a concert of Whitney Houston's. What a set of pipes! She was so talented and had such a wonderful voice. Unfortunately, she married Bobbie Brown and it went downhill from there, so much so that she became a regular feature on 'The Soup' because she had gotten so weird and hostile.
The world glorifies drug use, treating it as a right of passage that everyone needs to do in order to fully understand the human experience. But the music world is littered with unbelievable talent that succumbed to drugs and self-destructed. Whitney is just the latest in a long line...

Now that the cat is pretty close to being out of the bag that it was drug related, the question now becomes was it accidental or suicide?

When I heard "heart attack", first thing I thought was speed.. Who knows if it was accidental or not. It's a terrible outcome when a life is lost. DH and I liked Amy Winehouse but she was all sorts of messed up from substance abuse. They both left people behind who love them.
