Their voices sound nothing alike and if their styles do, I have to point to the obvious. No disrespect to Leona, but unlike Dolly Parton, Leona is mimicking Whitney's style and never made it her own. Kudos to the Great Whitney Houston. Legend. Icon.
they do sound quite similar.on this video leonas is live wheras whitneys aint. no1 will ever beat whitney but leona comes pretty damn close. vocally she is up there with the greats.she has power like whitney and hits high notes like mariah. she is the best voice to be discovered in the 21st century and she is this generations whitney. one day she will be known as one of the best voices ever like whitney and mariah are now.
They are totally different generations. Leona was born after Whitney released her first album. Leona is only at the "I Wanna Dance With Somebody" phase of her career, and Leona is still five years away from the Bodyguard phase. Plus, her success is more UK-based whereas Whitney is more US-based with a strong international presence.
porque whitney es una diva que seguirá alo largo del tiempo, aunque soy fan de leona reconosco que le falta mucho por recorrer y espero que llegue a ser tan grande o mejor que la misma whitney, por que voy es lo que le sobra ademas me encanta su sencillez.
whitney is better studio and live (1993-1996)

it's a bit of a different style, but I love Celine...
I wouldn't be able to rate them from 1 to 10...
but I'd say,
Leona, Whitney, Celine, Mariah, Beyonce and shania is good as well...

Mariah--sorta
Leona--yes
Christina--okay
Whitney--totally sucks
Beyonce--yes
Celine is best still...give her 5-10 years and someone else will fersure be on top vocally..

Why would she want to be like Celine? Celine has no musicianship, doesn't know how to phrase, and is cliched and boring.

Leona is no where near Whitney's level (even Whitney at the beginning of her career). I'm sick of the comparisons.
Leona vocally isn't that great. And she has no stage presence!
