Whitney Houston backstage at Grammy's

hard to watch this...she was so young..still so innocent!!

[@grethomory]

Damn Whitney was gorgeous....had star quality written all over her.

[@gladysmccoy1725]

Greg Hunt Very much so

[@januaryseven8781]

Absolutely right 1000%!

[@jamesbutler3960]

Her speaking voice was heavenly! And her beauty was just insane!

[@pintofowl]

she look like a barbie doll so gorgeous why did you have to go so soon :(

[@stephaniewilliams3460]

😢

[@moniquemitchell5092]

Yes, your right. She did look like a real barbie doll. So so beautiful. The most beautiful woman in the business to me. I loved her! A very special lady. 😥

[@bilalnasir6551]

Her voice. Her voice! My god. Its immaculate. No wonder she said that singing felt natural, like talking. Listen to that instrument.

[@RONNIELA400]

Yes!! Even her speaking voice!

[@hellcat6249472]

She was perfect - super model good looks and an absolutely fantastic voice

Lol did he really ask Whitney what she was doing to celebrate black history month? she was MAKING Black History, Mr. journalist!

[@lynnlockamy4665]

Thank you! That question ticked me off! Are u aware it's Black History Month?! If he knew Black History and who her family is in the context of that history he would never have posed the idiotic question!

[@mariahwhitneycelinejanetmadona]

What’s wrong with the question?

[@mariahyohannes]

@@mariahwhitneycelinejanetmadona Because she is the embodient of black history!!! Her mother, her cousins!!! She's black, why tf wouldn't she know it's black history month

[@patmwhite68]

That "I'm hungry" part was SHAAAADE, they wanted to see her be overly overjoyed, buckdancing and fake. But she kept it real and nonchalant as if it was (Just a trophy)and THAT'S ABOUT IT. Nippy 💖

[@antij1]

This was during her "good girl" stage, but you could see the "real" her peaking out.

[@asiajohnson1552]

Yes ! Everyone Wanted Her To Be Perfect ! & America's Angel . However Although She Was A Beautiful Spirit She Was Not An Angel .. She Was Human . I Am THE BIGGEST Whitney Fan .. And Its Hard To See What "They" Have Don't To Her . Not That I'm Blaming Them For Her Troubles & Tribulations .. But I Understand Why Something So Dark Such As Drugs Could Be A Friend . The Media Destroyed Her Smh & Her Brother Who Introduced Her To Them .

[@antij1]

You are right. Whitney was just human like the rest of us. Beautiful, pheneomenally talented. But human.

[@louloutre]

+Asia Johnson Im a huge fan of her, I listen to her almost daily BUT I have to say in the same time, I'm "furious" with her... It's hard to find excuses for Whitney as to why her life went so downward with everything she had. If you take other Icons like Michael Jackson, well people really destroyed him after the allegations. Besides he had had a really traumatic childhood, and he had two severe diseases ( he had vitiligo AND lupus), so poor angel had reasons to take drugs and kind of "destroy" himself. I can't see what excuses Whitney had... it must be very hard to find a woman luckier than her in the entire world. She won the lottery at birth : beauty, health, looks, loving parents, that VOICE, a mother who taught her how to use it and the perfect environment to develop her skills... then came the good producer and the best songs were written for her. With all this, how do you end up with no voice, in financial trouble, and you and your daughter dead in a tub???

[@drakecampbell6150]

antij1 what's the "real" her?

[@erikalodewijks6812]

because she cant handle the fame and pressure she's just a woman,michael is a man,i guess a man is always stronger than a woman

[@Shadow-nlr]

One of the most beautiful voices ever.

[@tynicole88]

“Can you tell us about new projects”? “Sure....just look and I’ll be there” 😂😂

[@laranervar4438]

She is witty and have a good sense of humor...she is smart....

[@twinsylvia17]

SHE SAID IMMA GONNA EAT IN FRONT OF EVERYBODY! She's so adorable and love her talking voice!!!! Gosh she's so gorgeous and I wish that you will be one of the people of black history month someday Whitney!! Love u girl!

[@simazenji4025]

This isn’t her first Grammy she won her first Grammy in 1986 for saving all my love for you

[@Cebo88]

Yes, this was grammy number 2

[@Sttephy30]

She looks absolutely stunning here. Like a barbie doll brought to life.

[@Tonya927]

I just turned 47, and I watched Whitney through the years and prayed for her, I do believe that her spirit is still strong and she is being comforted in God's arms. I still miss her soo much.

[@mariannarosario6294]

I also love the part where she says she's "So Emotional", like her song, "So Emotional." That was something very creative of her to say on her own behalf.

[@jboog6061]

She so quick witted I love people who are fast on their feet‼️😂

[@lamiokorlamiokor]

Her voice! Ugh. I love it!

[@teacherlady]

She was so beautiful

[@tonybuc67]

Everyone is speculating Whitney was chewing gum. She was not!! She was most likely eating an hors d'oeuvre from a tray backstage. They have craft service at these award shows for all the presenters, performers, winners, and press.

[@longbranch11207]

damn she was stunning

[@shamikahinton1889]

She is truly missed. Love u Whitney

[@reeseleebaby]

she has such a calming and silky speaking voice

[@noemistephanie93]

LMAO! She was a trip. I wish I could've chopped it up w/ her. We would've been laughin' the whole time. I love her personality. This Queen was a bright light.

[@donblack6415]

She had to be hungry because Whitney would never chew gum in an interview or whatever it was. All the while she was still poised and wonderful in with the journalists. Such a lovely lady.

[@jeromeb5510]

What was she eating

[@mariahyohannes]

@@spugh9367 If she was high on coke she wouldn't have had an appetite. People who do coke can go hours or even days without eatinf

[@circusm139]

You could tell this was when she started being over the press. Everything sounded passive aggressive 😂

[@stars2luv]

How can she be so kind and friendly all the time? Definitely somebody to look up to.

[@VictorBrumVoice]

One word: SPONTANEOUSNESS. As an artist involved in show business, she was always very spontaneous, despite of being watched over, every step, 24h/day by the bunch of producers behind the "Whitney Houston" name and image along the way.

[@candycaneee]

She’s such a motherly figure ! I love her

[@mariannarosario6294]

"I'm fine darlin, how are you? I'm just So Emotional!!" But so prejudice of them to ask her if she is aware that it is Black History Month!!! How dare them ask her such a question about if she knows that it is Black History Month!!! Whitney Houston knows her roots very well and where she came from very well!!!

[@MiamiPush2theLimit]

Marianna Rosario black history month has just started so it was not prejudiced to ask.

[@sljames1979]

I love Whitney!!! People can keep on trying to tarnish her legacy, at least she was real.

[@Lukeanthony82]

She waz too savvy for them 😂😂😂 'u look I'll be there'

[@ewilliams09]

This is her 2nd Grammy's. Her 1st one was in 1986 when she won the "Best Pop Vocal Performance" for "Saving All My Love for You". This one is in 1988 when she won "Best Pop Vocal Performance" for "I Wanna Dance With Somebody (Who Loves Me)".

She's not on anything. People typically stutter if they are. She's very well-spoken. Perfect English. Perfect diction. She only had a few minutes & was trying to answer as many questions as she could.

A beautiful woman and even her speaking voice has a beautiful lullaby quality to it.

[@aleayh]

She was ridiculously beautiful..... Whitney, you still make me laugh with your enormous sense of humor..I love it!

[@cheykiddd]

she's used too getting those responses to her success and voice. and she might be tired, tired and hungry don't mix well together. cocky? no, that was her sense of humor. she knew what she had and why people liked her. that's not cocky that's self confidence

[@lindseyvanghn2455]

Whitney was the greatest and will always be. I'm sad for us that our world lost such an incredible talented soul but I'm also hopeful that Whitney is resting with her daughter now in a world far more beautiful than this one could ever be.

[@Vejur9000]

Tough, poised intelligent. Behind the on-cam poise was a down home jersey girl who just wanted to be herself. Mega-stardom can kill, but it doesn't take away from her many gifts. In her prime, Whitney was an angel on the stage, commanding, radiant and spectacular. Rest in peace Whitney Houston. You made your mark, and now you lead the choirs of Heaven.

[@taylercoleman7279]

“Are you aware that it’s black history month and are you doing anything to celebrate”? Could clearly tell that rubbed Whitney but classy as ever she stood on that with grace and eloquence👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
