Whitney Houston Shines & Sparkles In Trailer For “Sparkle”; Will You Watch?

Written by The IPS in Movies on Apr 2, 12
R.I.P. to one the greatest to ever do it, Whitney Houston.

In her last movie role ever, Whitney Houston has taken center stage with her passing in the upcoming reboot of the 70′s movie Sparkle.

Whitney shines and there’s a clip of her singing “His Eye Is On The Sparrow” as well that appears in the trailer. Set for release on August 17th, 2012, Sparkle also stars Jordin Sparks, Carmen Ejogo, and Tika Sumpter as the singing sisters. It also features appearances by Cee Lo Green, with new music from all 3 of the musical acts featured. Shot in Detroit, the trailer appears to be accurate of the time period that the original project evoked.

Hopefully this will be a breakout movie for Jordin Sparks, and a final and living testament to the greatness that was Whitney Houston, no matter how she passed from us. I cannot wait to see this movie, as I love projects like this, period. It may be a rehash of “Dreamgirls_-esque proportions, but I’d be ok with that. Hearing Whitney one last time gave me chills. Rest in peace Nippy.

Will you be seeing this remake? Have you seen the original? Take the poll below, and weigh in!

There Are Many Tributes, But Chris Cornell’s Cover Of Whitney Houston’s “I Will Always Love You” Is My Favorite

Written by The IPS in Blogs on Feb 17, 12

Chris Cornell did a cover of “I Will Always Love You” in tribute to our fallen great, Ms. Whitney Houston.

This. Is. So. Good.

Chris Cornell is one of my favorite male vocalists, and Whitney Houston was one of my favorite female vocalists. This is amazing.

Whitney’s funeral will be streamed tomorrow on CNN and other media outlets at 11 AM EST. Rest on, Whitney. Rest on.

Rest In Peace: Whitney Elizabeth Houston (1963-2012)

Written by The IPS in Blogs on Feb 11, 12

One of the most sparkling talents in history, Whitney Elizabeth Houston has passed today. This is still breaking news, but it is confirmed and reported many times over.

I’m a huge fan and I’ve posted many things about Whitney Houston here on Tha Feedback, and we wish her and her family well. It’s truly a sad day for the music industry, especially as she has passed the night before the Grammys and also on the day of Clive Davis’ Pre-Grammy Party, which she has used in the past for a vehicle for her comebacks and to support her mentor and svengali, Clive Davis.

Sad day.

Classic Flashback: Whitney Houston – “My Name Is Not Susan”

Written by The IPS in Blogs,Videos on May 4, 11

OK, now this is one of my favorite Whitney Houston songs, randomly. However, when I thought about it this morning and went to Youtube, I found this version. This is a version/mix I’ve never heard. The music is changed from the original, and it also has Monie Love on it! What say what?!

OK! I never knew Whitney worked with Monie Love. That’s crazy.

Anyway, this was from Whitney’s I’m Your Baby Tonight album, and the music was such a treat for me. The video is a little creepy, but yet and still, Whitney sounded great and it just still makes me sad to see this and then to think about where we are now. I guess sometimes as fans we fail to realize that time has no fans — we all gotta get old someday. I refuse to see new Whitney. I want old Whitney to live on forever in my mind. LOL.

Classic Flashback: Dionne Warwick – “That’s What Friends Are For” (With Whitney Houston, Luther Vandross & Stevie Wonder)

Written by The IPS in Blogs,Videos on Mar 25, 11

Classic. Before she was the “cranky old lady” on “Celebrity Apprentice”, Dionne Warwick was the award winning and celebrated singer and cousin to Whitney Houston.

All of these vocalists on this stage absolutely commanded this performance. Whitney, Luther, and Stevie!? On one stage?

Peep Stevie’s hair outside of the braids too. LOL.

“That’s What Friends Are For” is Dionne’s signature song, but she has had over 56 songs chart on the charts, 2nd to only Aretha Franklin (whose birthday is also today!). She’s mostly know for her collaborations with Hal David and Burt Bacharach, and Bacharach is also responsible for half of this song.

Enjoy this slice of history!

Why Is Everyone Singing Whitney’s Songs Better Than Her?

Written by The IPS in Blogs on Apr 22, 10

I posted a video of the Internet sensation Lin Yu Chun singing a Whitney Houston song before, but he was on George Lopez singing “Saving All My Love For You” and while it wasn’t as pitch perfect as his version of “And I Will Always Love You” was, it was still pretty interesting. Do we take him seriously? NO!

Also, in the clip above, you will see Broadway actress & singer Sasha Allen singing the exact same song during a PHOTOSHOOT. I cannot stop listening to her version either. This girl is BAD. She’s currently starring in “Hair”…she’s had a couple of R&B deals, but wow…

But still, you got to admit, they both sound better than Whitney sounded a week ago in the UK singing the exact same song:

OMG…Maybe He Can Be Whitney’s Stand-In!?

Written by The IPS in Blogs on Apr 7, 10

On the heels of Whitney Houston’s Euro tour being postponed, I stumble across this viral clip of a Taiwanese male named Lin Yu Chun and he’s competing on a karaoke show called Super Star Avenue for a prize of $1 million US dollars, or £650,000. Wow!

I submit that he should be Whitney’s stand-in, because umm, he hit EACH and EVERY note — notes that she can’t even hit anymore. Bowl-cut, bowtie and ALL. This video is sweeping the internets of course.

He’s being called the next Susan Boyle because of his looks, but forget about a bunch of that, he slayed the hell out of this song. He sounds just like Whitney. Disturbing, a little, but he blows this out the water!

I need to compose myself, BRB.

Classic Flashback: Whitney Houston – “So Emotional”

Written by The IPS in Blogs,Videos on Feb 24, 10

I love “So Emotional”. I was talking to a friend last night because apparently they were showing a Whitney Houston block on VH1 Soul last night and it reminded me of all the Whitney songs I love. “So Emotional” is one of my random favorites because I just felt like she hit these high notes so effortlessly in this song. That top note she she sings during the chorus? She doesn’t even sound like it’s a problem 90% of the time LOL.

It looks like in this video she did more prep for that “tour” than she did for her CURRENT tour. LOL. Poor us. “The Voice” really is gone though, I think it’s time that we all realize this and do some artist development and talent and scouting to find the next “Voice”. I refuse to believe that we have to settle for Keyshia Cole.

Whitney Houston “Couldn’t Entertain A Dead Rat” Says Australia

Written by The IPS in Blogs on Feb 23, 10

I mean, WOW! WOOOOOOOOOOW. Them Australians go hard! Aren’t they the same ones that gave Britney Spears the business too for lip-syncing and giving a terrible show? I like them Australians LOL!

Whitney Houston is reportedly getting worse as the tour goes along. It was reported in the clip above that she took long breaks and vocally was not ready for a world tour. She hadn’t been to Australia on tour in 20 plus years, so hopes were riding high, as well as ticket prices — which STARTED at $100. Phew.

I don’t blame them, I woulda walked out too.

Another clip from the show of the finale below, after the jump.

Whitney Houston Stuns In South Korea — Good Way or Bad Way? You Decide!

Written by The IPS in Blogs on Feb 9, 10

Whitney Houston’s world tour has started and her first stop and launch was in Seoul, South Korea. Thousands of fans came up to support Whitney, and she ran through most of her hits from her 25-year old catalog, no doubt pleasing the die hard fans that were in the audience. Her “Nothing But Love” World Tour starts in South Korea and begins its journey around the world.

However — I am still trying to figure out if I wanted to see this tour or not because…it’s Whitney Houston! I love Whitney — but I feel the the Whitney we know and love is long gone. Don’t believe me? Peep the clip above of her singing “I Will Always Love You” live at the concert. There are more clips of her performances from the launch, but it just hurts my heart.

And to top it off, I just JUST watched “The Bodyguard” and so this performance was fresh in my mind. Such a shame!!

Would you buy tickets to see Whitney despite the condition her voice is in now?
