BREAKING NEWS: WHITNEY HOUSTON DEAD AT 48



This is a tremendous loss for the music world. It was reported by various sources Icon, singer, actress and legend Whitney Houston was pronounced dead earlier this evening as reported by her publicist. She was only 48. Her legacy as a musical entertainer and one of the greatest voices of all time inspired many acts such as Christina Aguilera and Mariah Carey.

On a personal note I remember some of my earlier moments in my childhood surrounded by her infectious music and how we used to play her music a lot around the house and I even remember how my aunts and cousins and I went out to see her movies "The Bodyguard", "The Preachers Wife" and jamming to her music at our annual family cookouts when I was a kid. Her vocal prowess and presence will never be duplicated, but forever she'll be remembered as a musical icon.

From us here at LKC our thoughts and prayers go out to her daughter Bobbi Kristina, mother Cissy Houston and cousin Dionne Warwick, close friend and singer Brandy Norwood (who's birthday is also today and of which she starred with in the 1997 remake of Rodgers & Hammerstein's Cinderella) as well as her extended family and friends.
