Whitney Houston - 'gone too soon  One of the Most BEAUTIFUL AND TALENTED WOMEN IN ENTERTAINMENT. she did not come on stage half naked, She was elegant and her image of natural beauty filled with natural talent was astounding. I lay much fault to the 'yes man" crowd that encircles these entertainers. with their hands filled with drugs and allowing the drug selling people including doctors who push these drugs into the arena for these entertainer to get. The Business is with many elements that are far more fragile in the individual than the media hype pushes, These entertainers deserve to be protected, as much from others as well as from the destructive choices they may make. success and availability of substances to try and tune down and find normalcy, often times leads to many variations of addictions. For American, Whitney's Version of the National Anthem, should be declared the official version of this National Song. No one, absolutely no one has done it as natural and UN-embellished as she did. God's voice came through her, and the ravages of evil always seeks to attack Gods instruments of Gods Gifts. We all must guard against the evils invading into the lives and bringing destruction's of every sort. No Voice shall ever be another Whitney, many are not aware of the bridges, many artist built those bridges, but she solidified them into forever, as a cross over artist, that was loved without regard to race or ethnicity. Look at her, she is in every sense of beauty, purely Beautiful, her appeal was elegant even in the throws of addictions she did not come on stage without respectful elegant in her attire for the honor as a Global Artist. I hope many young artist learn from her, that it is an honor to be such a entertainer, and there is no need to come on stage naked, nor perverse in their actions, let the talent speak and if it is true talent it will speak for itself. Forever, " I Will Allways Love You".... will be a song for All Ages. telling of : " The Greatest Love Of All".. WHITNEY HOUSTON 1963 -2012 |

None of us know the grueling pressure put on by all those who want to profit from the talent of an individual. they don't see the person, they only see an avenue to run them ragged and make money off of them. It has happen to every top star to some degree or the others, eventually some even leave the country like Madonna, Brittany Spears went tumbling, and so did many others. No one can keep that pace, nor meet that demand, and then have a public who see's them as a object and never as a person. They don't know who is and who is not a genuine friend, and some even have families who see them as a bank account more than as a relative. Escapism takes on many forms, and the want to simply feel good, beyond the adulation of the stage, can create a circle that is far more than many of us can imagine. We see entertainers marry and divorce in a year, some may make 5 years, but so many divorce. The unreal life, the instability of having multiple mansions, is itself a big issue, because one can only live in one place at a time. Seeing the past type of normalcy is something they can never find once it has become changed and they are world renown. It leads many to subconsciously destroy the same thing that got them the fame, because they know within themselves, it is the root of their success and their success becomes in some ways like an albatross. We the public see the opulence and think they should be at peace, but the human element of people is all the same. People want to be liked for no reason other than to be liked. it happens to some women just because they are pretty, they will destroy it and abuse it, because they like that it attracts, but they detest they are unable to know who really likes them as a simple human being. When someone is in Whitney's position, who is beautiful, talented, popular, wealthy and envied and hounded, it is a bigger matter than anyone generally in their inner circle care to see or know the pressure of it all. because all these people see is their paycheck and how to keep it coming. Many people have gone to great lengths to get out of the spot light, some even stop their craft and take long breaks, because they simply get burned out and jaded by the hoopla that the public makes. They are watched more than a criminal, they are targeted more than a deer in the middle of deer season. They have the rivalry in the ranks of their profession of back stabbers and scampers and con artist on every level. If one Million Dollars bring out the idiot parade, imagine how big that parade gets when people have 10's and 100's of millions of dollars and they are a popular entertainer. It is an insanity where nothing is real. This kind of pressure has made people like Freddie Prince kill themselves, and people like Andy Kaufman do crazy stuff... Michael Jackson is another example of how a public simply made life crazy.. There is a reason so many people in the public spot light end up broke, because people rip them off, they are not trained as financial managers, they are trained for the talent they have.. with that much money it become a separate responsibility that is far too much for them to manage the money and still meet the entertainment scheduling. many of these people have miserable realities, because there is no relief no matter how they turn within that circle. One has to get away and know how to get away, and select very carefully and very slowly and quite deliberately whom they allow around them. Any one of us, can look at the people around us, and it becomes a very interesting thing, to discern who is with true and honest respect for you and who is not with a motivation to want something, need something or expect something and many are there because of what they think being around you might bring to them. Right now if any of these readers, suddenly got a windfall of 10 million dollars, you would have to change your life and you'd have to do so with great thought and detail. It's like the girl that use to be in this site, Jenny the Penny, soon as she talked about Modeling, some of the wanna be Models rushed at her trying to see if it would lead to an avenue for them to get on the wagon, she had people who were claiming to be looking for her best interest with investments and leading her to Florida, when Florida was and still is one of the worst investment areas in the nation, where people play fast cash games and big stories, and they end up with your money and you end up with an albatross that has long claws that scratch at your face. I'm broke but people have a wild assumption that I have money, every time I meet a pastor they are eager for me to come to their church and join it because they think they will get 10% of what they imagine I might have. When I had multiple cars, the bikes and multiple properties, people wanted to hook me with various women, because they thought I had something they could link themselves to. Now, just imagine what the people with vast wealth and entertainment status goes through. I think over the years, After Whitney's first success, if she had a network of friends that were real and honest in being simply friends, it may have been solace where she would not have been as driven into the substances which became her friend and refuge, until the substance ultimately showed it was and is a great destroyer of the soul and will take the life after it strips the soul bare and makes it fragile and weak. Because many of us struggle to make it, some think money will make everything happy.. money buys conveniences, but that does not mean it will run the troubles away. In some ways and some troubles it only magnifies them and multiples the cycle those troubles come and surround you. Then there is the pressure to try and keep a lifestyle that is expected, but maybe not one that is truly desired. Image often times become more dominating than the actual reality one may care to embrace. All this may be fun for the first year or so, maybe it may last up to a few years, but by the time many people hit that late 20's and 30's, some get burned out, some look burned out and some get spun and run through the washer and hung out to dry. Look at Heidi Montague, she has all that surgery because she was caught up in the lime light and the light faded, and the disaster set in, now you don't even hear her name other than as a the bad end of a bad joke. Some may have a relationship, but as they get older and they think they are loosing this lime light, they will destroy their own relationship, trying to recapture their glory days. We see the same thing with women, whom some get very disheveled when they age, because they want to go back and recapture the days of their youth when they influenced the game. but they did not learn, to grow older with grace. they rode the high life of their looks and their body, and when no one is chasing them anymore and things change. They have no prepared themselves to learn to mature and grow older with the grace and appreciation of doing so. People often forget the lessons that one can learn from the God essence and words that speak about life, of life and speak upon to the living about living and learning to be at peace within self. Sadly for some, the adulation of fame is a deafening roar, that has a million horns blowing 24/7.. Look at the Hollywood set, they have all been in some mate pass around cycle, both the men and the women, and each find out that the person is not the illusion they chased, then they go on to the next one, trying to find the media illusion and hype and what they find is a cycle of broken illusions. by then some of them have found burn out in the process. It's like many pretty women, some of them can be more a nightmare to be with than one might imagine and some of the average looking women in many cases turn out to be a mate worthy of sharing some of the greatest joys over a longer span of sharing. the pretty women who make good relations, are often times the one who don't rely on their looks, but they rely on their character and they spend time to first develop a character that has a down to earth realism about how they live and how they share.

We have far too many of these tragedies in the USA-- fame and notoriety are hard burdens to bear. Plus her very poor choice in marrying Bobby Brown just for street cred really did her in. My favorite Whitney song was "Saving all my love" she had a voice like an enchanted helicopter.
