Whitney Houston Gets Booed in England

Tags: , , , , , , , ,

Whitney Houston continued her Crash & Burn World Tour last night at London’s O2, disappointing nearly 20,000 fans by not even bothering to attempt the high notes in most of her signature songs. The Daily Mail says

Houston admitted to the crowd that she couldn’t hit the high notes and even abandoned The Greatest Love Of All after only a couple of verses, [saying]: ‘She don’t want to come, my soprano friend. Sometimes the old girl sings, but not tonight. I want to do it, but she doesn’t want to. … She’s getting a little … temperamental, even.’

She struggled further with another of her classic songs, cutting short I Will Always Love You, and paused and panted for breath between songs.

Fans were still unhappy, with some even demanding their money back.

Remember those old “this is your brain on drugs” commercials with the egg in the frying pan? Well, they could do one for “this is your voice on drugs,” only instead of a frying pan, they’d just show the footage of sweaty Whitney Houston in a Rick James wig screeching like a barn owl caught in a hairnet made of live wires. Any questions?

    On my bucket list:
    smoke crack while having sex with Whitney and then, in the middle of it, pull her wig off.
