    Other reports deny her death.

    From the link-
    "Whitney Houston, who reigned as pop music's queen until her majestic voice and regal image were ravaged by drug use, erratic behavior and a tumultuous marriage to singer Bobby Brown, has died. She was 48.

    Publicist Kristen Foster said Saturday that the singer had died, but the cause and the location of her death were unknown."

    So, there's still no details.

    She had a troubled life. God rest her soul. :pray:

    Whitney Houston, superstar of records, films, dies

    LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Whitney Houston, who ruled as pop music's queen until her majestic voice and regal image were ravaged by drug use, erratic behavior and a tumultuous marriage to singer Bobby Brown, has died. She was 48.

    Houston's publicist, Kristen Foster, said Saturday that the singer had died, but the cause and the location of her death were unknown.

    News of Houston's death came on the eve of music's biggest night - the Grammy Awards. It's a showcase where she once reigned, and her death was sure to case a heavy pall on Sunday's ceremony. Houston's longtime mentor Clive Davis was to hold his annual concert and dinner Saturday; it was unclear if it was going to go forward.

    How could they not know the location? Usually the only time they don't know the location is if someone is murdered in one place and found in another. It could just be the strange way they are wording it, but it doesn't make sense.

    You shouldn't be. I am not a very compassionate person when it comes to idiocy.

    Whitney Houston had the resources to take care of her addictions. Millions in this country don't. I feel for her daughter, but other than that, who cares?

    Really sad to hear of her passing; she was a very talented performer; 48 is way to early to go.

    If you don't care, why are you here? They haven't said how she died, drugs is just speculation right now.

    Maybe it's you that should lighten up. Without any facts, you're the one that immediately said "drug overdose, I'm sure."

    that's part of teaching them well. idealism is the first causality of aging.

    for all we know, she could have got hit by a drunk driver leaving a gym.

    another victory for those 'legalize drugs' liberals. You'd think that at least one of them would take a moment...reflect...and conclude that maybe they ain't so cool after all......but I doubt it
