Whitney Houston interview /1995 Waiting to Exhale

So sad to go back to sitting down with her now that she's gone........she seemed more calm than ever in this interview late Fall 1995..Whitney was 32 here........she seemed more comfortable than before....three years after The Bodyguard..and was about to start The Preachers wife... Whitney was one of my favorite singers ever!! One of my top ten musical moments was listening to her live at a Grammy Rehearsal Radio City Music Hall. She was cited as the most awarded female artist of all time by Guinness World Records and remains one of the best-selling music artists of all time with 200 million records sold worldwide. Houston released seven studio albums and two soundtrack albums, all of which have been certified diamond, multi-platinum, platinum, or gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).

I don’t care if it’s 2082, I’m heartbroken that she’s not here.

[@marcellopulidori9149]

There is only 1 thing to say: THE GREATEST SINGER OF ALL TIME. PERIOD

[@aeshaalberts7560]

Her speaking voice so pretty

[@WillWize]

Her speaking is soooo smooth and silky here. Can you imagine it being 1995 and being sung to with this voice. Heaven on earth!!🤍

[@markeithejackson7529]

It was a lot smoother than this though. She had vocal nodules around this time which she got in 1994 and the smoking agitated it causing her voice to be gravelly. However, she still sounds good though

[@sweetpeepauline]

I miss her so much, when she lost her voice you could feel the pain in her eyes. 💕💐🕊🙏🏽💜

[@1ddedde]

It hurts me to hear her say she’s devastated when she has voice problems, I can only imagine how she was behind the scenes in 2010. She must’ve cried so much! 💔

[@LLCoolJArchive]

1995-1997 Whitney's voice is just an essential gem. Her best voice years for me.

I love this!!! If only the Houston estate would do this woman some justice and release some never before heard music or concert footage, this would be perfect with everything going on in the world right now, the world needs good love and Whitney knew how to give it. ❤️

[@mikeyjohn9903]

Delton 100% agree but this estate is useless especially with that pat garland at the helm

[@mikeyjohn9903]

Wonder how Whitney felt with her losing her range in 2010 during that fateful tour?she must of been devastated

[@mikeyjohn9903]

Wish she gave up cigs that was not good for her voice

[@SerafiniAGaunt]

@@mikeyjohn9903 In 2012 she said she was committed to giving them up cold turkey, I wish we could've seen her healing

Won’t happen with a Judas in the camp (pat)

[@omrij19]

She was so gracious and kind!!

[@DavidRichardson95]

This video is the same age as me and yet the quality is crystal clear!!!! The queen would've been celebrating her 57th birthday this Sunday. #RIPWhitneyHouston

[@romeosantos9006]

Great speaking voice. That beautiful face. She was so real and humble. Miss you, Whitney.

[@whitneysource]

I miss her .

[@aeshaalberts7560]

I love the interviewer he brings out the best in her

[@Dedicated2WendyWilliams]

i love the tone that was set by the interviewer, as a hugee Whitney fan, she was going thru a lot here.

[@jacobpatrickpoulsen6608]

Great interview and you can tell that Whitney was so comfortable during this interview. She was so sweet and she was also a funny woman. Not afraid to laugh at herself sometimes and make jokes.I love Whitney, her music, her voice and her personality. :)

[@SerafiniAGaunt]

Jimmy Carter always seemed to be a good interviewer for Whitney - never really asked stupid questions or got on her case

[@tameikabrown2542]

1995 will always be number 1 obseded year of Whitney Houston regardless I can't get enough of that year 1995(25)year's ago

[@jaylenw.1202]

I'm a 2000s baby so the fanmail era must have been real. Wonder how life would have been if artists like Whitney, Michael, Aaliyah, Left Eye, 2Pac etc. Were around for the social media age.

[@quintinlamarr657]

Yes TLC released an iconic album named “Fanmail” dedicated to the mail & letters their fans would send them.

This is by far my favorite hairstyle of hers.

[@seanharris7843]

I think she truly passed away from a broken heart. Not that someone broke her heart, but the loss of her voice truly hurt her soul

[@jean-philippebonorchis6499]

Def it did. She was under a microscope constantly.

[@terry2843]

god how things could of been different. if she was able to leave bobby and truly focus on herself. take time and rest away from the music business and focus on her we could of had so many more years of whitney

[@Edward_Strong1982]

Cigarettes are very destructive to your voice. Her and Aretha voices were both ruined because of cigarettes. God I miss Whitney

[@Marqui17]

He has great convo starters

[@MrS98VAC]

The public didn't know much about her struggles at the time. But looking back now on these interviews, one can see how the drug use affected & changed much of her demeanor.

[@serellapickens7736]

Yes you can tell ! Definitely with her weight loss..

[@codezero7981]

so apparently she had an overdose while shooting this film.
