Starting Something- Whitney, Usher, Mya

[VegasAcer]

Usher sounded awful

[Militarymight101]

he awlays has i hate him his singing is mediocre and his dancing is terrible he did the same move 3-4 times

[tristandrews]

Back then when they made this video All was thinking Whitney was so high.Now Whitney was singing out singing MYA and Usher

[cratlady03]

Whitney came out and set it all the way off!!!!!

[PerezIsGoingDown]

Whitney BLEW Usher and Mya out of the water!

[breeababe14]

I can barely get on Youtube w/o people like Ghettrinic pissing me off. The true definition of a damn hater lol. Really it was horrible?You couldn't do it if your life depended on it. Mya needs to come back she can really perform.

[Ghettronic]

That was horrible.

[YOSHEBA22]

WHITNEY IS A CROWD PLEASER!

[Militarymight101]

near teh middle where the guy was spinning that girl in teh air she was wearing a thong :) lol oh and usher is pretty good but to me he's not good enough to notice because he does like the same 3 moves

[cjuntrin]

Even though she was near rock bottom, Whitney COMMANDED the stage. Usher and Mya were afterthoughts after Whitney came out and took over. Here's hoping she comes back big - the industry needs her healthy to re-set the standard. In her absence, R&B has devolved into a lot of ghetto nonsense.

[Blueeyedsoul517]

i dont care what anybody says..hate on whitney if you must..when that woman stepped on that stage she meant business!!! she had this fierce look of determination on her face like "let me show these young kids how its really done!"

[Greenterror]

usher is HOT!

but he's no MJ

no hater

just the truth

[jctorontojctoronto]

a night or two before 9/11 just up the street from where this took place Madison Sq. Garden, NYC Sept 2001..

WHITNEY HOUSTON ABSOLUTELY SMOKED THIS LAST COUPLE OF MINUTES...

rip mj

[yungnonyahead313]

I only wish MJ knew we cared so much when he was here!

[lford20]

cool

[tmonique81]

I'm so glad Whitney got her life back together. Usher and Mya can dance their asses off...Whitney can sing her ass off!

[dreza71]

where, when was this?

[Aaliyahfan20]

Oooh Whitney was cracked out here lol

[wildstevo]

i remember when i first seen this when i was little.. it gave me goosbumps! not too keen on usher at the start... seems its a little bit out of his range... but still... i loved it!!!

[Takeitsjsjjs]

lol me too

[wildstevo]

good to know im not the only one! hehe!

[ItzONandPOPPIN]

Vocally, Whitney owned the other two, woah man! Where is this girl?!  I'm waiting for a come back!

[Takeitsjsjjs]

I heard that she's got her voice back and she looks wonderful

[rdewese]

Usher Is Hot Without His shrit On

[lword1970]

this song is sooo distinctly MJ that it does go over well as a cover

[ansimma]

Even thou she was not THE Whtiney everybody used to know, she still managed to give a GREAt performance......I really hope she can pick up her life again.....

[curlyfry44]

all three at this time lived in ATL...:)

[curlyfry44]

I'm surprised Whitney did show up...if any of you remember whenever she was asked to perform somewhere she didn't show or when she did turn up it was hours late...crack is usually more important lol...her voice is incredibly weak...she's as skinny as the Olsen Twins....

[heybiggy2005]

damn impressive on usher part dancing like that and still bein able to sing

DAMN Whitney came out fierce as walk lol she stole the show

[Blueeyedsoul517]

honey that walk! too fierce. and when she through that dress back i knew she was about to show out! lol

[lovedalover]

they actually doctored Whitney and made her look bigger!

[emotionalGLORIAS]

this performance was in 2001 september i think...

[23672925]

When was thos performance?

Great one;-)))!!!

[dabestgirl]

Jesus Christ luk at whitney...soooooo skinny! Her part was the best tho

[oltimotyra]

whitney the best

[Jigo84]

Yeah usher rockssssssss

[brookealana81]

That was RAD! Look at poor whitney's legs, they look like there gonna snap!

[dabestgirl]

LOOOOOL!

[deanriam]

Poor SHITney.

[xMizShaylax]

i loved this performance. did yall know that vh1 actually "fattened" whitney up digitally. she admits it on the diane sawyer interview.

[b215apple]

Mya and Usher are an awesome dance collaboration!

[myarichardson]

Whitney worked that fucking song. but i dont know what the hell they were thinking about with those clothes.

[cheerqueen201]

i agree she stole the show

[kjonesteaches]

when was this??

[jameelahere]

Perfect tribute to this song. It epitomized everything I was feeling when I heard this song for the first time and later as well. The African thing was awesome.

[iwilsing4u]

mya is so good live

[hotlilrel]

Daaaaayum Whitney look sick as heeeyall! Uuuugh!

[Bl6ckWom6n]

Those costumes were outrageous. Style DON'T!!! LMAO! It was ok, they was grooving a little bit, but of course could have been better.

[jameelahere]

It was a tribute to the AFRICAN feel of the song, Bl6ckWom6n, with a screenname like that you would think you would feel that. (Although Whitney looks sick)

[DatNiggOnDeckYo]

nah Whitney and MICHAEL killed the whole show no matter what they were going through cause we all kno so for them to show up and you kno some people don't even show up for their own

[DatNiggOnDeckYo]

tribute but the both did their gig and did it well so check out MICHAEL as well cuz Im still stuck cuz we was singing live and he haven't did that yrs and her did well he rock dat shyt like Whitney Rock this and Fuck all U haten ass bitches hope your mother's get rape and shot in the 4 head no matter how old they are that will teach u a lesson whores

[Bl6ckWom6n]

Wow... Was the relevant. Relax.

[deanriam]

Poor SHITney!

[DatNiggOnDeckYo]

Poor your Mother Bitch

[deanriam]

Oh you got offended? You stupid crybaby!

[mrmrmemyself]

THIS IS THE PERFORMANCE A MICHAEL JACKSON 45TH anniversary. Bow Bow also performed at this event. please do you have that part. I have been looking for it for such a long time. I missed to record this twice. NBC will not make a copy for. please if you did record of all it please let me know. don't know why they did not make an edition to sell. please contact me back.

[CDEastBallin]

Mya killed this performance , She's a G like dat

[CDEastBallin]

It does say your a vegetable

[adavis8605]

Usher sounds a hot ass mess!!! and for the record so does Mya!!! but Whitney although her appearance is all but questionable, is still amazing vocally!!!! she tore it up!!!

[blaquecherry419]

i hate everything bout this video

[evo8boy]

they did a good job!11111111

[BSG123]

no, it's vegetable.

[smooothcriminal]

haha.. yeah.. i heard it as "you're a vegetable" too! =p

[gitana44]

r they sayin ' ur a vegetable'??

[gitana44]

aw i remember tis. this when everybody was shocked to see how thin whitney was on crack.

[girlpower1985]

woa fuck is die alte dünn!

[Aaimah]

Whitney was that thin when she was a teen-20s. She put on weight in the 90s around the time she did Body Guard she wasn't rail thin. One could assume she got rail thin again by working out or you could assume she was doing drugs only Whitney and her people know for sure. Just don't act like Whitney has been 90 lbs the whole time people put on weight with age.

[noeroa]

I'm really hoping they fired those stylists... These are some of the most horrible outfits I've seen on a stage, Hell!, they even managed to make Usher look so gay (and not in the good way)...

[stingstungme]

I think the outfits were appropiate for the song and especially for the choreography. I'm kind of iffy on the leather pants but everything else seemed perfect.

[YOTROI]

ALL I GOTS TO SAY IS NO

[minimetam]

they all did good dman you haters

[LorenaeB]

whitney look terrible in this video man!!!

[bitesizeent]

some award show idk

[MsBlack44]

You all can say what you want, but like I said before, look at her early videos. She was just as thin. And bitchcarey you are right, she did save the performance, Mya's mic could have been a little louder.

[c0c0puffz]

You can see Whitney's bones coming out her chest.I am sure she was never that thin.

[musicloverw1]

I agree that Whitney has always been thin, but this looks unhealthy. She has never been this thin before....she has lost her figure and that's why people have said something. She has no curves at all and her legs look like arms. But, she still has an amazing voice!

[MsBlack44]

Whitney has always been thin!!1........look at her saving all my love for you video. Before anyone knew she was on drugs no body ever said anything about her weight. Now all of a sudden she is too thin. She has always been that size, except for when she gained a little weight having her child.

[bitchcarey]

i agree with you! Whitney has always been thin! she was like that in 80's, people are terrible, i think

she killed her part, she saved the performance!

[octopustheater]

No she didn't. She killed her integrity by coming out looking like a fucking scarecrow.

[MsBlack44]

MYA is always a class act. She knows how to be sexy without being sleazy and slutty

[ENGLISHFLAVOUR]

wtf was that?. *becarefull who you trust* shit?? at the end. haha

[damuse11]

Go Whitney she is amazing singing this song! Excellent backing dancers!

[YeAhSuperGirl]

Hey ppl where was that performance????!!!!!!

[JaielleAmara]

[angeljoanafar]

mya sounds great usher sounds bad

[Magaliy]

whitney look sooooooooooooooooooooooooo THIN i just cant... wow !! no there's no word for that! anyway, the video and their performance is just amazing, especially the dancers!! well done!

[xxlilazndudexx]

hahha lol! did you see michael's face when all the african dancers came out?? hahahha! he's like wtf???

[MorbidGirlie]

I 'love' how you guys say they can't sing that well... you dance like that AND sing in key... you won't sound perfect either... -nyah-

[Stedman07]

[ladragoness]

[shabbysinga112]
