Whitney Houston Dead

We have just heard the sad, sad news on the death of one of the greatest musical legends, Whitney Houston.

She has died today aged 48 in Hollywood at the Beverly Hilton Hotel on the eve of the Grammys.

She was found alone in her hotel room on the fourth floor. Paramedics tried to resuscitate her at the scene but Ms Houston could not be revived. Her body has been formally identified by friends and co-workers who were staying with her at the hotel.

Her next of kin have been informed.

Apparently she was preparing to attend her mentor, Clive Davis' annual pre-Grammys gala party tonight.
It had been said that the event has now been cancelled.

At this time, the news has just broken and Whitney's death is unknown, although there is much speculation going around such as "drug related" etc, but these are all rumours at this time.

She leaves behind her only daughter Bobbi Kristina, who is fathered by singer Bobby Brown who is performing in Los Angeles tonight. He had not made any official comment but is expected to do so at his show this evening.

Jazz and soul producer, Quincy Jones has released a statement saying he is "devastated", whilst singer, Mariah Carey has said of her shock and tears for "one of her best friends and inspirations".

Kookie LaLa is devastated to hear of this news as Whitney Houston was a great singer and style icon.
Who can forget those amazing outfits from "The Bodyguard" movie?

We will keep you posted and do our own official video tribute to Whitney in due course.
