Fame Kills: Whitney Houston

On Saturday February 11th, 2012 music royalty descended on Los Angeles for the Grammys and Whitney Houston checked into the Beverly Hilton Hotel. In preparation for the pre-Grammy Awards party - an annual affair thrown by the music impresario and her mentor, Clive Davis - Houston’s assistant, Mary Jones, laid out a dress on Whitney’s hotel bed and left to pick up other red carpet dresses put aside for Whitney at Neiman Marcus department store. A tragic scene was to meet Jones on her return to the suite - Superstar Whitney Houston was laying motionless facedown in the bathtub. Whitney Houston had a voice that only comes around once in a lifetime. A voice that opened doors all over the world for every female artist who came after her. And a voice whose final cry for help was not heard.
