well, all u haters, judgemental and hurtful words, u guys should be privilidged to be in her presence, i wish i was there just to see her live on stage, remember her for greatness not her flaws, now shes gone the generation will never know what she was like, only from the internet and hateful comments as these. whitney u go girl.
Was about to lose my breath, you all got to remember, Bobby Brown had her on drugs for 10+ years, her voice was not going to be perfect, so leave her be, she tried her best okay!
You do not need permission to record someones song, but you do have to pay them some serious money. Elvis Presly wanted to sing this song but he wanted the Copyrights so that he didn't have to pay. Dolly refused. Whitney recorded the song and now Dolly is making a killing off of it; probably more than Whitney.
@Notmineonline i disagree. her voice is gone. you saw how she couldn't even sustain notes w/o cracking. i am a whitney fan but i would not pay to see her in concert now after having seen this,\
@Notmineonline: Stop making excuses for this crack whore. Her voice was never the same after she abused crack and many other drugs. Now her voice sounds the best its sounded in many years...SILENT!@ LMFAO
What turned me against Whitney is when Dolly gave her permission to record I will always love you and then later Dolly invited Whitney to duet the song with her on stage and whitney told Dolly that she would not that it was my (whitney) song and I (whityney) made it a hit, way better than you Dolly. Screw Whitney for saying these things to Dolly, If it was'nt for Dolly the song would have never existed.
When Whitney was throne as the Diva Queen a message from heaven has sent and let her sing "I Will Always Love You", just like lucifer at the top of her popularity and fragrance abuse her self. When you fall It is hard to restor a broken throne.
A real fan would have stayed until the very end. Those people are lame! I'm a loyal fan always has been and always will be. I support her and I want her to succeed. That people is what a REAL Fan is. Those people who really weren't fans should not have come to the concert to begin with. THANK YOU
Give her credit. She's not lip-syncing, like many singers these days who are half her age and have nowhere the talent she possesses, and plus she's on that hot stage giving it her all.
@lesterclaypool1 , I don't think she's ripping any of her fans off. If they are stupid enough to pay and see her, after they know what she's been through, why should anyone feel sorry for them? Buy her records, but why in the world would you pay to see her when she sounds like that. Embarrassing and disgraceful.
How would the audience know when this was the first performance of the tour, though.
There have been many artists that have struggled with drugs that have mde amazing comebacks so there isn't really any basis to say that Whitney couldn't. Something tells me that Whitney isn't as quit of the drugs as she claims to be. To be fair, I could be wrong, but I don't think that I am.
@lesterclaypool1@lesterclaypool1 , You're probably right, but I guess my argument lies with her management and promoters.

poor thing....she was AMAZING back in the day ...my mom used to play her music all the time ...now ...she honestly looks like a watch with out a broom stick to ride on
Whitney should go ahead and retire. I know a lot of us try to defend her, but she shouldn't have come back. We would have had a better memory of her. Even if she wanted to come back, it shouldn't have been so early after rehab. Touring is stressful and she could have relapse, which could explain why she isn't improving like we want her to. She should take a long break and maybe her voice will come back one day.
what a shame to lose something so important and such a blessing to have such as beautiful voice. 10 years ago i would have waited a whole life time to hear her sing but now......
@kkoolable I know. It's incredibly unbelievable that her voice could get this bad in what seems like a short amount of time. I wonder if she has damaged vocal cords? She sounds like bad karaoke
@kkoolable You wouldn't know who she is, cause she was a European singing star, however, Vera Lynn sounded good till the day she died. She was in her 80's. She took care of her voice. And have you noticed that Donna Summer stills sounds good? I have a big problem being able to find sympathy for those that purposely abuse their bodies with drugs and alcohol.
at: :36 looks like she's lip synching or singing to a vocal backing track and her timing might have been off...poor Whitney...What a talent she used to be
YALL LETS ALL JUST PRAY FOR HER AND NOT TALK ABOUT HER...WE ALL GO THROUGH THINGS SO LETS NOT MAKE OUR FLAWS BE OUR DOWNFALL CUZ U ALL R NO BETTER BY TRYING TO TALK ABOUT HER...SHE IS HUMAN JUST LIKE US...LETS JUST PRAY THAT SHE WILL HAVE A BETTER TOMORROW
i was happy to see Whitney make a new record and attempt a comeback. But if she's going onstage in front of a paying audience and she's THIS unprepared? She's basically a thief.
@steamingleo Anyone sounds ok or can sing with autotune and synthesizers and tons of engineers to cover up vocal flaws. Autotune can make it sound like anyone can sing
@steamingleo , It might have been that common drug nicotine that did it to her. Cigarettes are very bad for singers. I think it's incredibly stupid that some singers smoke, but actually many do
@BlogShag Yes I know. In my language, we have a saying "Dont step in shit then step in honey". Thats what many singers do. A lot of celebrities have all this blessing but they don't know what to do with it. Because something inside them is empty. I feel utterly sorry for them and pray for them everyday.
Yes she does smoke!!! You can easily obtain that info from looking it up online. They have even blamed the cigarettes for her voice sounding the way it does. I love Whitney Houston and will always support but once again she needs to leave the cigarettes alone!!! I would have replied back to you directly but your name gave my reply an error when I tried to post...
It's from the years of cocaine and crack use It damaged her vocal chords. It''s a shame but it can happen to anybody who abuses cocaine. It can damage your nose and entire sinus cavity as well. I wonder if there's anything that can be done to reverse it. She had one of the best voices in our life time.
Gosh that did not sound like the Whitney I have listened to for over 20 years. I want to defend her too... I really do. But I also know that God is a restorer and he can restore her voice back to where it was... She has to do her part.. Stop smoking the cigarettes Whitney... They are only making it worst!!!
Now, wait a minute @ridgerunner98570. You can't entirely put the blame on Bobby Brown. She's a grown woman and knew well enough that drugs were, in no way, were going to improve or help her career. In the first sign of problems she could've done something. By the time she left him, she was a day late and a dollar short. He's not to blame. He contributed to the problem I can say but she had free mind as well as free will.
@EbonyEntyce Thank you. Someone finally see it the way that I see it. No one put a gun to her head and forced her to do drugs. She had her voice back in the beginning of her comeback. This is probably the result of her being back on drugs. Now if she is back on drugs ask the people who thinks it's Bobby fault, do they think it's his fault now that she's back on drugs because they are not together now.
@Dmidgette1 That's not it , how do you know if something is still not bothering her? they aren't together but it could be still something he's doing or not doing that's still troubling her , i mean they still have ties. They have a daughter together , so I know she still see's him from time to time. she could be getting high with him still or there are other troubles in her life that bothers her and remembering how briefly painless drugs made her got her back to doing them.
@satanknight14 Like I said. How is it his fault that she is on drugs. She has a mind of her own and five senses. If she didn't want to do drugs the she wouldn't do them. It is no one fault but hers if she is back on drugs. The mere fact that she was on drugs in the first is her own fault. Cause she could of just said no and kicked rocks when she realised that he was on drugs. That's why I believe she was on drugs when they met.
@satanknight14 Anyone who saw those few episodes of "Being Bobby Brown" knows just how screwed up and crazy that family was. That was just nuts-- unless it was just done for the camera, but I doubt it. All that wealth and those two seemed like they were more koo-koo than what you see on mental wards.
Whitney claims that after they saw themselves in that show, that's when they decided that it was best to part ways. I agree
I've only seen clips of BBB in this site and I can't wrap my head around why the producers didn't put an end to the show before it even aired? There's only so much money to be made from misery, isn't there?
I bet YOU, you consider urself a GOD believer but you feel she is awul now! Think before you speak! Your words cut like knives. She is human! She listens to your comments! She reads your comments. Lets show her the respect, the support and the love now that she is alive and is able to enjoy and respond..not when she is dead!
How can you ask of me to respect somebody when they don't even respect the gift that God gave them. Ain't nobody told her black ass to start smoking. This is all her fault homegirl, not mine.
How Sad to see someone who had it all, has now lost her once fabulous voice, I am a whitney fan but maybe she should just retire gracefully! So So Sad!!
@buddydib1 Yeah I agree. She should just retire before she's remembered for this era of her life and not the one where she was great. There are kids now who weren't alive or were to young when Whitney ruled the charts. Her voice back then trumps any voice out today but this one...just...no.
@buddydib1 how can she retire gracefully when the fact that she have no money left,as we all know she used to be drag user addict and for sure she used it all of her money for drugs that is why, now in order to get retire gracefully and comfortable nice living she forced her self to sing even the fact that she realized her voice now is not like used to be.
Marriage is a necessity to bind men to women in order to beget & raise children. Any other arrangement--homosexual, bestial, group, incestuous or plural--is perverse and mustn't be codified. Cannibalism, amputation, torture, and a myriad of other activities remain verboten regardless of whether the adult participants are consenting.
@welovesjs She's just not missing the voice she's missing everything and it's so disappointing for Whitney. It's like she hasn't seriously practiced in years, doesn't even care about putting on a show, feels entitled to $165 a ticket for no reason.
its the record company - they want their pound of flesh - is there anyone looking out for this poor woman - the album was a fine return for whitney - they should have left it there for the time being ......
@jay28hay What is she,5?Why do people want and need to infantilize this self-absorbed middleaged woman?Sir, or Mam, you really don't have to worry about her.Worst case scenario, she lands up in a rehab facility for an extended period,living a drewam life of comfort and care you'll never know in your lifetime.After that stint, she'll probably go abroad to contemplate and write a book about God's intention to make her stronger, which will be a best seller!You've been duped!She'll be just fine!
Well folk... she is recovering from a serious bout from drug addictions. She is still healing emotionally and physically. Don't be so quick to judge her while she is still in recovery. Just haters!!! Those Australian folks talking crap for the cameras are not true fans who know her story and understand her struggle.
DriveAustra wrote: "Those Australian folks talking crap for the cameras are not true fans who know her story and understand her struggle."
Whoa - this is the entertainment *business*, not a support group. Ticket buyers are not required to be "true fans" who should "just support her". For $150+ they are entitled to a quality performance by a professional entertainer.
They didn't get it and are absolutely entitled to complain.
@RSVP, so well said. onya. entertainment is a business, and she ain't doing the business. a lot of people who paid up to $190 for tickets may have saved that money for a long time out of very low income, and hoped for a magnificent show. what a disappointment for them. i feel (slightly) sorry for Whitney, but she needs to stay at home and get COMPLETELY off the drugs before she drags her sorry self out in public again.
It's one thing to understand her struggle, it's another for her management to send her out on a heavy world touring schedule especially when they know she isn't up to it. Charging fans a lot of money to see a singer that isn't anywhere near her best is just rude.
Because that's what it's all about. She's in the business of performing, and she ain't doing the business because shes still recovering from years of drug abuse. Would audiences in Vegas be thrilled by this sad-assed performance???? Why should Australian audiences be subjected to it? You want to insult Australia??? Well, Australian audience members walked out on your fabulous Whitney, because we didnt appreciate being ripped off by a low-rent ex-crack-ho.
@DriveAustra Uhh, excuse me DriveAustra but you sound like an ass. If she's still in recovery, then she shouldn't be touring, let alone ripping people off for $165 a seat to hear her crack and miss notes, sing off key, etc...
Was there at concert actually felt sorry for her, really should retire for good from live performances & stick to studio music only - they can mix vocals & do retakes so she sounds fine. Her voice is shot. During concert voice was really rough & she struggled badly to hit high notes, she mimed song songs & very noticeable with video screens, worst of all came after one song when she was towelling herself she farted in a violent sustained manner , the mic picked it up & sent it around hall.
Yes she does she is deceiving her fans and the people buying her tickets, if she hasn't the voice anymore she shouldn't be performing. It's an embarrassment, especially in the current economic crisis people just can't afford these tickets!
@TemplarOfNight you people are fucking pathetic , this is just how you assholes did michael jackson. You talk about him when he was down , then beat him some more until he ended up dead. Don't say Michael got himself addicted to drugs , it was fucking people making ignorant comments that he couldn't take, so he needed something to get his mind off of the bullshit reality. Now you people praise him...Hypocrits! I'm not a whitney fan but u ppl are digusting...
@satanknight14 Even if what you are saying about Michael is true. He still made the choice to use drugs. So it's his own fault that he was on drugs. You can't blame some else for a choices that you make. That's like going in the court room and saying my mom told me to kill my wife. Who is the judge going to punish you or your mom. It's going to be you cause you did it. Whitney and Michael was on drugs cause they wanted to be it was their choice.
My god where have these so called fans been for the last ten years???? It was quite clear that she wasn't going to be perfect, its your own stupid fault for paying large amounts of cash. Mr JLOCKS34 argues - "might i remind you its the drugs and not taking care of herself is why she cant do what shes suppose to do out there on stage" Well thanks to the mighty press EVERYONE in the world was aware of this so my argument is why did you pay it in the first place?
Whitney is touring due to her contract! It is mandatory, not for fun. Let's see Arista be kind and just pay her and let her go. Remember Mariah Carey's good fortune???
if shes not ready to tour she should not be on stage...you cant just stand on stage because shes WHITNEY HOUSTON and not give folks what they pay to see. its a new day and time. Understand people have spent 165.00 and more to see a professional..might i remind you its the drugs and not taking care of herself is why she cant do what shes suppose to do out there on stage.
woulda, coulda, shoulda.....that is all in the past...she did hook up wih Bobby Brown, she did do drugs, etc. Her vocal cords will never be the same, but I am not an ent doctor.what if a runner lost his foot, he will never run the same again.....it's really pretty simple...I just hope this sends a message to others of the ramifications of drugs and booze. What a shame to have all that talent and toss it down the drain.....I hope she does recover, I don't want to slam her, I wish her the best.
No One would never even come Near close to sounding like Whitney, no matter what people say this or that "could be the next Whitney Houston" and blah blah blah...God Really Blessed her with That Voice..She chose that life. She's Still a Legend. That's what the world do..Once you mess up, the world starts to take you down..It's the truth. But God Can Restore her voice back to what it once was before she ever got on drugs..Believe it or Not. (Don't respond back if you have Negative comments.)
This is what I think...If whitney would have Never gotten with Bobby Brown... (not blaming him, but he could have pressured her or not)....then I think that she would have Never gotten on drugs, (even if she never gotten with Bobby Brown)...and that she would Still be able to sing like she used to, even if she is older. And she will Not die before the age of 50 if she keeps touring and stuff..She's Still the Best singer in the world! She still has the same vocal chords..just damaged.
Cocaine abuse will take its toll mentally and physically on a person. First of all it will do major damage to the heart. Thats why she is exhausted and perspiring all of the time. The after effects of Cocaine will also burn your vocal chords, leaving nothing but scar tissue. Thats why she cannot hit those notes. If she doesnt retire , she will be dead before the age of 50
exCUSE ME! Dont speak death on Whitney Houston!! What is wrong with you??? How would you like it if someone declared that YOU'D be dead before the age of 50??? She'll be living at 70 for all you know its GOD'S choice not YOURS! If you dont have anything nice to say then shut up and mind your business. leave other people out of it. :-|
i heard that she lip-synced for most of the concert and sang out of tune when she didn't (i mean that singing at the beginning was awful not even the most devoted fan can deny that) and she took 20 minute breaks between songs. She will always be a remembered as a legend, but she should have went out while she was on top instead of coming back and tarnishing her reputation with awfu live performances such as the performance on the x factor. personally i think she should refund the people's money.
No Matter What I'll Still Buy Her Music...Ya'll Don't Have To I Will..Love Yu Whitney...&& It's Sad Ya'll Ppl Talk About Her When Ya'll Know Bout Her Pass...
lmfao!!! fuck them, they shouldnt be going to no damn whitney houston concert anyway. who pays 165.00 to hear her shitty music? and did you notice how ugly her supposed fans are? cruel comments from desperate dullards.
they should really leave Whitney alone. nowadays she has her good moments and more often some bad moments. but she always seems to give it her all. i do empathize with the people who bought expensive tickets, but the coments some of them made were just plain nasty,ridiculous, and just un-called for. and these media people never tell you about her good moments, they just want some jucy story at the expense of a star.
This is a classic case of buyer beware; months ago the internet was awash with videos of her shocking live performances to promote her album. Do your research, people, before you spend hundreds on a concert ticket! I would have thought it was apparent from the album that her voice wasn't what it once was. Autotune and other fancy tricks couldn't disguise it. That's what smoking a crack pipe does to vocal chords. It's also addled her brain. But ah, what an incredible talent she once was.
Foreign white people want you to reach out and touch them and tell them how much u love them and shit. fuck that. Black singers or rappers dont do that. Fucken get over yourself. Welcome to America.
okay, true. But you have to understand, she's still in recovering and its not easy. If you didn't want to risk that happening I'm guessing, based on performances on the X-factor and such, you shouldn't have bought one.
Performers like U2 or Bruce Springsteen really know how to connect with an audience. The have very low IQs, probably even dumber than Whitney Houston, but they understand human psychology.
I believe evry1 is entitled 2 their views & I also believe that when airing their views they culd giv a little more respect 4 themselves & others......@MatheusStradivari how dare u disrespect a country who opens it doors 2 all...... we are a very multicultural country & proud of it..... a gr8 number of your fellow kind reside here & have done 4 many years. U may even have family here .....& if so I hope their not as SAD as u are !!....... aussie, aussie, aussie...... oi oi oi
Let's be fair here. The 'fans' in this video are only small in number and during the clips of the concert the crowd seemed enthusiastic. Also in those clips her singing sounded good (except for one little glitch, I must admit). All those comments about her having to retire are hateful. There is no reason why a talented musician shouldn't be able perform up to old age!
jeesh she doesn't have a never ending voice

It's from the years of cocaine and crack use It damaged her vocal chords. It''s a shame but it can happen to anybody who abuses cocaine. It can damage your nose and entire sinus cavity as well.

Now, wait a minute @ridgerunner98570. You can't entirely put the blame on Bobby Brown. She's a grown woman and knew well enough that drugs were, in no way, were going to improve or help her career. In the first sign of problems she could've done something. By the time she left him, she was a day late and a dollar short. He's not to blame. He contributed to the problem I can say but she had free mind as well as free will.

@EbonyEntyce Thank you. Someone finally see it the way that I see it. No one put a gun to her head and forced her to do drugs. She had her voice back in the beginning of her comeback. This is probably the result of her being back on drugs. Now if she is back on drugs ask the people who thinks it's Bobby fault, do they think it's his fault now that she's back on drugs because they are not together now.
Dmidgette1 1 year ago
@Dmidgette1 That's not it , how do you know if something is still not bothering her? they aren't together but it could be still something he's doing or not doing that's still troubling her , i mean they still have ties. They have a daughter together , so I know she still see's him from time to time. she could be getting high with him still or there are other troubles in her life that bothers her and remembering how briefly painless drugs made her got her back to doing them.
satanknight14 1 year ago
@satanknight14 Like I said. How is it his fault that she is on drugs. She has a mind of her own and five senses. If she didn't want to do drugs the she wouldn't do them. It is no one fault but hers if she is back on drugs. The mere fact that she was on drugs in the first is her own fault. Cause she could of just said no and kicked rocks when she realised that he was on drugs. That's why I believe she was on drugs when they met.
Dmidgette1 1 year ago
@satanknight14 Anyone who saw those few episodes of "Being Bobby Brown" knows just how screwed up and crazy that family was. That was just nuts-- unless it was just done for the camera, but I doubt it. All that wealth and those two seemed like they were more koo-koo than what you see on mental wards.
Whitney claims that after they saw themselves in that show, that's when they decided that it was best to part ways. I agree

Whoa - this is the entertainment *business*, not a support group. Ticket buyers are not required to be "true fans" who should "just support her". For $150+ they are entitled to a quality performance by a professional entertainer.
They didn't get it and are absolutely entitled to complain.

@RSVP, so well said. onya. entertainment is a business, and she ain't doing the business. a lot of people who paid up to $190 for tickets may have saved that money for a long time out of very low income, and hoped for a magnificent show. what a disappointment for them. i feel (slightly) sorry for Whitney, but she needs to stay at home and get COMPLETELY off the drugs before she drags her sorry self out in public again.

It's one thing to understand her struggle, it's another for her management to send her out on a heavy world touring schedule especially when they know she isn't up to it. Charging fans a lot of money to see a singer that isn't anywhere near her best is just rude.

Was there at concert actually felt sorry for her, really should retire for good from live performances & stick to studio music only - they can mix vocals & do retakes so she sounds fine. Her voice is shot. During concert voice was really rough & she struggled badly to hit high notes, she mimed song songs & very noticeable with video screens, worst of all came after one song when she was towelling herself she farted in a violent sustained manner , the mic picked it up & sent it around hall.

Listen up people-
Cocaine abuse will take its toll mentally and physically on a person. First of all it will do major damage to the heart. Thats why she is exhausted and perspiring all of the time. The after effects of Cocaine will also burn your vocal chords, leaving nothing but scar tissue. Thats why she cannot hit those notes. If she doesnt retire , she will be dead before the age of 50

i heard that she lip-synced for most of the concert and sang out of tune when she didn't (i mean that singing at the beginning was awful not even the most devoted fan can deny that) and she took 20 minute breaks between songs. She will always be a remembered as a legend, but she should have went out while she was on top instead of coming back and tarnishing her reputation with awfu live performances such as the performance on the x factor. personally i think she should refund the people's money.

This is a classic case of buyer beware; months ago the internet was awash with videos of her shocking live performances to promote her album. Do your research, people, before you spend hundreds on a concert ticket! I would have thought it was apparent from the album that her voice wasn't what it once was. Autotune and other fancy tricks couldn't disguise it. That's what smoking a crack pipe does to vocal chords. It's also addled her brain. But ah, what an incredible talent she once was.
