It is a waste. Her child now has no mother.
Everyone knows she went downhill because of the drugs but she did her thing, she used her talent and made wonderful songs back in the 80s and 90s. Reading how her life was a waste post after post is in poor taste in my damn opinion!

I agree. If anybody in that union was a drag it was her on him.

Really sad to hear this. I also posted on the Entertainment forum here:

So sad over this. I'm an 80's baby, so I grew up listening to Whitney. Sung "Greatest Love of All" at my elementary graduation ceremony.

Was driving tonight and the radio stations were playing her songs. Incredibly sad....just incredibly sad to hear.

Though she's had a troubled past, she seemed to be doing better. This is a shock.

RIP Whitney. God has added a beautiful voice to His chorus.

They just said her daughter is 19, and that she has been known to do drugs too, they mentioned crack.

If any good comes from this, maybe it will be to keep her daughter from suffering the same fate.

RIP Whitney.

Not even a few hours and the rumors are starting.............I don't think Bobby Brown is to blame. Some people just can't stop the drugs, if that's what happened. Heck, with prescription drugs at the fore front, it could've been that.

Rumors and blame games have no place now, that just destroys families.

May she RIP

I'm numb right now. Goes to show you how drug and alcohol abuse can ravage one's body.

A sad end, only 48, but she climbed some impressive mountains in her time. I don't think anyone with that level of accomplishment can be said to have had a wasted life.

A local right wing radio talk host (now our state GOP chair) used to play the national anthem every day at about 5:06 AM at the start of his show. Whitney Houston's version was in regular rotation and was one of the better ones.

I'm not trying to be hard on her, but the truth is that her drug use shortened her life.
I agree. It is always sad to see people that have so much to offer do things to themselves that lead to their graves.
