Vaknade i morse till den sorgliga nyheten att Whitney Houston gått bort, 48 år gammal.
Tragiskt men inte så oväntat, som de flesta verkar vara eniga om. Hon dog ensam i badkaret på sitt hotellrum i Beverly Hills. Bara en halvtimme innan hade hon pratat med sin mamma Cissy i telefon. I torsdags kväll festade hon på en Grammysfest tillsammans med sin pojkvän Ray J och såg som vanligt drogad och sliten ut, men inte SÅ illa att någon slog larm.
Whitney lämnar efter sig sin och Bobby Browns dotter Bobbi Kristina, 18 år.
