The woman literally had it all; the voice, the talent, the charisma and the beauty. No wonder she became a bonafide force so quickly. I’m literally speechless.
Hector Posted July 26, 2022 Posted July 26, 2022 One of my favorite singles of hers even if it distanced her from the R&B audience at the time (as the Soul Train Awards clip where she was booed would tell us ). This song is so pretty

This song is so pretty It was 1989. The music industry had become integrated but audiences, and radio to an extent, were still so segregated by genres and styles and formats. No other BLACK WOMAN (as a solo artist) had EVER reached the heights that Whitney Houston did, at that time, particularly on an international scale. Ms. Houston opened the Grammy awards for FOUR YEARS IN A ROW (1986, 1987, 1988, 1989). Her 1989 opening had performing in a white dress, with a full orchestra behind her, singing centre-stage and receiving a standing ovation before the song even finished. This was the peak of her being America’s Sweetheart and the night she certified herself as a legend. Those that booed her that night were simply jealous of her success and stature. This is why I’m so happy that both Anita Baker and Regina Belle, who were the R&B darlings at that time, mentioned her in their speeches during the show thereafter and thanked her for being so kind and pleasant to them. They knew the weight that Ms. Houston was carrying on her shoulders and they supported her. Thankfully, the vast majority of Black America supported her too, and loved her.

Schami66 Posted July 26, 2022 Posted July 26, 2022 Dear Miss GoodGuyGoneGhetto. Yes, Whitney was stunning in that video BUT she was just as beautiful in all her other music videos. Whitneys beauty was just out of this world and let me not start talking about her voice... I'm so jealous of all the people that got to hear her live. Truly a legend.
Aribiotch Posted July 26, 2022 Posted July 26, 2022 Curse the day she ever ran into Bobby. Oh how I wish we still had this legend today
kandicha Posted July 27, 2022 Posted July 27, 2022 she was so stunning in all her music videos tbh miss her so much and wish we still had her with us.
naval23 Posted July 27, 2022 Posted July 27, 2022 All The Man That I Need and I Wanna Dance With Somebody are my favourite beauty looks from her - she looks absolutely beautiful

Filthy Pop Posted July 27, 2022 Posted July 27, 2022 I didn't realize they remastered the GLOA video in 4k, her in the white dress towards the end
PMKARDASHIAN Posted July 27, 2022 Posted July 27, 2022 Personally she was at her beauty peak in the IWDWS video The hair, the beat, the CHARISMA My dad knew what he was doing when he introduced me this legend when I was 9

She was 24 in the ”IWDWS” music video ”All The Man That I Need” as she approached her 30’s >>>>>>>

Thinking Of You Posted July 27, 2022 Posted July 27, 2022 This is immediately what I thought of when I read the title. She was the epitome of class, grace, beauty, and talent. She had it all, really. Fun fact though, the Black community continued to drag her after they saw this music video (even after the I Wanna Dance with Somebody controversy) because they thought she was still selling out. Why? The love interest in the video looked racially ambiguous. You couldn't tell what race he was, but he surely wasn't Black. Come to find out, he was a wealthy, Italian man from NYC who owned an upscale restaurant.
