Disgraceful, disappointed, horrible, dreadful, these aren’t the adjectives typically associated with the legendary Whitney Houston but that was the sentiment echoed by concert goers after witnessing Whitney’s performance down under. Whitney opened her Australian tour in Brisbane last night wherein she performed new material, the classics and even a Michael Jackson tribute.

One guy described it as “the worst concert I’ve ever been to in my life.” One woman said, “She couldn’t sing to save her life. She couldn’t entertain a dead rat to be honest.”

It’s reported Whitney opened the concert with Read the rest of this entry »

The 3rd Annual BET Honors aired on  Monday (February 1). The VOICE, Whitney Houston was among the noted honorees which included Diddy, Queen Latifah, and others. Two of Whitney’s favorite voices Kim Burrell and Jennifer Hudson performed classic songs, I Believe in You and Me and the timeless I Will Always Love You.

Just because the Grammys snubbed the GREATEST SINGER OF ALL TIME doesn’t mean others will. Whitney Houston is a living legend, ultimate DIVA, and THE ICON. As she stated in her acceptance speech, “Let’s not tear each other down in our failures, but lift up each other in our triumphs”

3. Did you all get your holiday wishes?
4. Are you happy VIBE has returned to all your newsstands? (Their editorial with Amber Rose it hot, be sure to check it out).
5. Mary, apparently your whole “ No More Drama” mantra has ended. And Kendu, you are dead wrong! Don’t be trynna fix Mary’s issues when you can’t fix your own wondering eye.
6. Did any of you see Lady Gaga on tour, how was it? I was scared to go, (JK) wanted to hear some info about it.

Soul is one of BGG’s most inquisitive contributors and has some questions and thoughts he’d like to share with you, the readers.

Check it out!

1. How come everyone is acting like Lady Gaga is on Beyonce’s level? Doesn’t she have quite a ways to go?
2. Who the hell does Mo’Nique be yelling at on her talk show?
3. Don’t you just love the musical direction and “growth” of Miss Rihanna’s new sound?
4. REALLY! How many women were there Tiger, or as Wendy Williams said, “CHEETAH”?
5. So is Jazmine Sullivan recording her second album, on a tour I don’t know of or just chillin’ at the crib? Please come on back!!!
6. If Mary J Blige’s voice improved a great deal after her sobriety, when will Whitney’s voice improve so that I won’t have to keep defending her?
7. Will Rihanna’s clothing line be as FLY as she is?
8. Taylor Swift better not get all those Grammys over Beyonce! Look, The American Music Awards more than  made up for the Kanye incident. This is the Grammys (no shade).
9. Monica’s sixth studio album, dropping at the top of 2010 better be as good as it sounds on her BET reality show, Still Standing (not still sitting)
10. Are Chris Brown and Rihanna in competition with their tattoos? They both recently got script text tattoos.  LOOK Riri! Focus on fashion and Chris continue to transform I guess.

Whitney Houston hit the stage of X Factor Saturday night (October 17) and experienced a bit of a wardrobe malfunction. During her performance of “Million Dollar Bill,” the strap on the back of her dress popped open. But instead of letting that stop the show, Whitney continued her performance and once the song concluded, she joked “I sang myself out of my clothes.”
