Whitney Houston and her daughter Bobbi Kristina Brown (pictured below) hit up ABC’s ‘Good Morning America’ on Tuesday morning in New York City.
According to reports, the singer’s voice was a little off while performing the 3 song gig and she said this to the crowd:
“I’m so sorry. I did ‘Oprah,”‘ Houston said. “I’ve been talking for so long. … I talked so much, my voice … . I shouldn’t be talking. I should be singing.”
The anticipated Oprah Winfrey episode will be airing later on this month and Houston’s long-awaited new album is in stores now.

…… i am so proud of her i could not stop crying
…bobbi kris was so cute ,,,her voce was a lil raspy
…… thats ok… all those prople she must have felt loved
—–They should’ve had her sing with Freddie Krueger, Jason, Michael Myers, and all
—–the other decrepit corpses from the ’80′s. This woman’s career is finished and one
—–has to wonder what the motivation for this nonsense is, other than the
—–perpetuation of “woman power” and the maintenance of the dream state that the
—–black woman is in here in America.
Whitney Houston is a crackhead
Whitney had the greatest voice in the world. She still hold a place up there with Aretha, Patti, Gladys IMHO.
whitney looks great and her daughter looks a little better. mama looks better than child. you go whitney. stay off the drugs and you can continue to look 30 at 40 something… keep up the good work..
IM SORRY HER DAUGTER LOOK JUST LIKE BOBBY BROWN. INSTED SHES A MS PATATOE HEAD AND IS NOT CUTE.
@ Nichole
Girl shut up, i notice that you always hatin on Whitney get a life. Nobody even mentioned Mariah so just hush up, we know why Whitney dont sound that great but whats Mariah’s excuse???????
You reap what you sow,she has lost her voice,which was a god-given gift,those are the consequences that she paid as a result of dabbling in drugs,and despite all the extravagant excitement and publicity her new album is receiving,crack has kicked Whitney`s butt,I know she got rid of Bobby,but she needs to houseclean and get rid of all of those phoney,fake,insincere groupies,assitants and advisors that have enabled her for years and get on her hands and knees and start relying on GOD.
@Nothing But Love. We know why Whitney didn’t sound so great? What’s Mariah excuse? Are you kidding me? Lol. Wow. Staying true i guess.
Whitney’s CD is very, very nice.
I’m sorry but this is sad that Whitney Houston indeed lost her vice, cuz please its not talkin to Oprah that will make you struggle to sing, it’s like she is sayin everytime I have a concert, I dont talk for months, thats a fake excuse, sorry!
Did you hear I look to you live? It was a very emotional mess knowin the fact that she lost her voice but the meaning of the song, God didnt let her down. To someone who sang ‘I will alwys love you’ with such brillance to be doin this, you have to admit it’s frustratin.
But can we escape from the fact that she has been usin drugs for almost 10 years and is agin? No, of course her voice wouldnt sound the same but she still tries to maintain some kind of power and clarity inside of it. I understand bettter now why her songs in the CD are not demonstrative of her powerful voice. She cant sing like she used to.
However, Im more than happy to see that she still lives and is able to make a comeback so beautifully and happily. I thank God for that, cuz that crack couldve kill her. We already stupidly lost MJ. Lets pray for the rest of legends.
wtf, i see people have started their comparisons again
mariah’s got nothing to do with this. damn, cant believe #44 had that LONG essay on her. it’s not that serious
I LOVE YOU WHITNEY HOUSTON!!!!!!!!!
I watched the show this morning and it was so so good to see you back on the stage doing your thang!!
I hope there is going to be a tour because I will definitely be there. I can’t wait to get the cd.
Judah,
Cmon now you really need to ease up on all this hate towards black women. The only disservice your doing is to yourself. Do you go out in every day life with these views or are you just another coward behind the keyboard?
WHITNEY
IS
BACK
AND
SHE
IS
BETTER
THAN
EVER.
FEEL THE LOVE.
Whitney Houston is a mess.The hell with Oprah and GMA,SHE NEEDS TO apologize to her daughter for not providing a healthy stable family life during the years that her and Bobby were wasting their life on crack.As a result of Whitney`s dysfunctional choice to get high on crack,she has pyschological left scars on her daughter`s soul.And she needs to apologize to God for not appreciating the gift,her once great singing voice,that he blessed her with and she threw down the toilet in order to get to that crackpipe.
Whitney went from being the recipient of remarkable success,superstardom and accolades to being a person that has all the familiar symptoms of being a ex-crackhead,now whenever I see her she is like a living,breathing,walking television infomercial for staying away from crack.
She almost had me on the verge of tears! Loved it! Oh ,I especially liked when she sang-the hook to “My Love Is Your Love” …….(Me and Bobby’s baby)nets
I liked Whitney’s outfit too,the jacket was cute.
I don`t see how she will ever be the same again,the physiological damage that crack does to your nervous system and brain is irreversible.That crack took Whitney out of her right mind and had her doing all kinds of bizarre stuff,she was walking into trees.Whenever you take drugs,it is like playing a dangerous game with the Devil.And the Devil is gonna win,I mean just look at Whitney,she looks like a shell of her old self and the innocent Whitney that was there before she met Bobby and started taking Drugs is gone.
#44 i agree completely
Whitney sounded horrible. Im sorry but there is no excuse for whitney to sound the way she did yesturday, She spent ALL this time out of the spotlight so she had time to get it together. Im not looking for her to sound the way she did back in the day but she could of atleast sounded halfway decent and she didn’t im sorry. Her and Mariah need to give it up.
Do you know just how long it takes to recover from the damage that cocaine and heroine do to your lungs??? I’m so tired of these people who are beyond rude coming on here and bashing someone they know NOTHING about and trying to tell them what to do with their life.
If you didn’t like her performance, it’s whatever, you have that right, its a free country..
However, please save all of your negative and hurtful remarks because all they’re doing is proving how much of a hateful person you must be. And please that whole “I’m entitled to my opinion” bull. Disliking something is one thing, going out of your way to verbally abuse someone (no matter who they are) is just classless..
That being said, as others have said, I can’t wait to see what a few years of strengthening her voice will do. I’m sure this is just the beginning of what we will see from Whitney (if you remember, Mary J Blige went through a similar period). Her energy alone at GMA was enough to get me excited, she put on a great show. It’ll all improve in time. Good luck Whitney

I’m glad to recommend you a very interesting place ==WealthySeeker.Com ==.It is the best club for seeking the rich singles, beauties and even hot celebs..what’s the most important is:you dont have to be a millionaire.but you can meet one. I think everyone need to meet some miracle after all the terrible stuff in the news and the economy .
Whitney “the voice” Houston! lol i love saying that. Her daughter bobbi is PRETTY!
Can’t wait too see her on Oprah.
Speaking of O, where has she been? I’m tired of watching re-runs. She better come back with some good ish!
hell whitney making me not be a new fan of her . her ass made my mom cry during her performances and i cant even do that when im doing something good
People keep saying she sounded terrible, but she sounded better than most of these so-called singers today. You GO, WHITNEY, and shake the naysayers, baby girl.
take notes jennifer hudson this is what happen when you mess with drugs
i think that’s a lame excuse to blame it on oprah unless she was screaming her lungs out in that interview..
thank God for today’s youngsters like Fantasia and Jen Hudson.
It was very sad watching her sing knowing how beautiful her voice use 2 b. I never would have thought in the eighties that I would be watching Whitney go through this now. WHAT IS HAPPENING WITH OUR BLACK SUPERSTARS? MICHAEL DEAD FROM A DRUG OVER DOSE WHITNEY OVERCOMING CRACK ADDICTION.. Only true artist left is the musical Genius PRINCE
#5….I hear u. Even though I am not a big Whitney fan, that is what music is suppose to do. Inspire us, uplift, etc. Yeah all music doesn’t have to be deep or spiritual but a lot of music today don’t have that.
Your job or whatever it is u need will likely come faster when u listen to her CD to keep u in a positive mood. One day at a time is all we can do sometimes.
#64 you are preaching. She had one of the greatest voices and I was never a serious fan. I believed her voice was gone with her last album or whatever she did. Nothing good (with the exception of their beautiful daughter BK) came from her relationship with Bobbi. Nothing. It was a trainwreck from the beginning. EVERYBODY saw it.
Whitney sounded bad but I don’t care she looked good and healthy and like she finally got her life back together.
Team Whitney!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
#82…When did MJB ever make bad music? I know u didn’t say that but it’s kind of implied. Yes MJB had some challenges with alcohol but she never put on a disappointing live performance. For someone’s voice to get really rhaspy as if you are a heavy, heavy smoker comes from yrs of abuse. MJB hasn’t been strung out like that.
“I Look To You” is such a powerful song to me. And the mere fact that she dedicated to her mother was tearful and beautiful. I cried. That’s a sad song only when you think about the people who been through it, going through it, and there is always that one person that has your back. And I applaud Mrs. Houston, for being there for Whitney, and being a true mother. She protected Whitney and made sure she had Whitney’s back. That is love. I respect Mrs. Houston. Reminds me of my mother, that when all said and done, a mother will help you through your battles. God is pulling Whitney out of her storm. Hope she holds on and never let him go.
She looked so beautiful. Hopefully, she will find a rich tycoon to marry and take care of her. Wonder if Vlad , Naomi’s man has a rich cousin or brother? Whitney -no more r and b singers.
My mother use to say, Never laugh at someone , just because you are up today, doesn’t mean you won’t be down tomorrow. We can say that Whitney should be ashamed that she wasted her God given talent on crack, continue to judge her. But, you want to condemn her, than please condemn yourself. How dare anyone sit there and judge Whitney or anyone that has an addiction.Addiction is a disease, people cannot help that. Noone is born with the desire to become an addict. You say that she has a talent given to her by God. I, agreee, but maybe it’s in God’s plan to use Whitney to help others cope and deal with addiction, cuz she can say, I’ve been there, now let me help you through my experience. The same way her mother had her back, she can be there for others. So don’t condemn her. Pray that she never goes back to that dark place, cuz noone wants to be there. She had a talent , and she still has a talent, but unlike other people she’s not giving up. I wonder if MJ would have been alive, if his close people would have had his back. Would have given him the support he needed. Being there as a friend instead of taking from him. Whitney obviously has a real support system because she’s still here. So don’t judge her, remember everyone has many bumps in their roads. Your addiction maynot be drugs it maybe something else.
EXCUSES! Whit, ya voice is TOASTED! stop lying about talking on Oprah and all that other irrelevant shit
keep it real, ya shit don’t smell like it used to
I loved it.. Million Dollar Bill and My love is your love was so good.. Whitney has stage presence and a charisma that always shined through and still does today.. Her voice has seen better days, but there still is a voice there.. she just needs to work with a coach and figure out what she can sing and what she can’t… i’m every woman shouldn’t have ever been picked. She looked amazing, and I can’t wait to see this Oprah interview, I heard it ran over so they’re making it TWO EPISODES, ALL WHITNEY.. CANT WAIT
I was there at the concert & even though the lines were mad long & even though her voice cracked I’m happy that she’s back. With a little voice training hopefully she’ll get back to where she was before. Her daughter Bobbi Christina looked real nice too!
Pingback: WHITNEY HOUSTON & BOBBI KRISTINA ON GMA « the RNB STARZ
it was great to see and hear her on stage with grace and energy….Her vocals weren’t perfect….so what….She didn’t lip sync like Mariah , theres no comparison between these two whitney has stage presence…… BTW i don’t know if it was the drugs that ruined her voice or just a part of her family legacy Listen to her Mom or Dionne W. sing..their voices are all raspy..
whitney sounded horrible.
1. I sing 2. I love whitney houston 3. Whitney’s voice isn’t as great as it used to be. She’s still a good singer. She was hoarse at the GMA. I personally don’t think that represents what she is capable of doing. Her voice won’t be what it was but I think she can still sound how she sounds on album. She was hoarse. I’m looking forward to her singing live again. People get hoarse for any number of reasons. It’s happened to me.
we all must walk down that road ——– marvin gaye sings it the best. [yesterday] all my troubles seem so far away……. now i need a place to hide away. oh i believe in yesterday- suddenly iam not half the man i use to be……….. cause father- time will “knock fire out all our asses” in due time… all of us. vanity of vanity all is fair . there is nothing new under the sun.. can you dig it.
Whitney i am so glad beautifyl Lady, and your daughter is beautiful, God is always there when you need him, I am so glasd your faith was so strong, You are loved and so very many people pray for you everyday.. You go girl!!!! You have found your way, The CD is great love it….I bought it.
They both look GORGEOUS! Especially Whitney Houston! OMG!
god bless you whitney.million dollar bill sounds so good live.your dedication to your mom with the song i look to you and throwing your hands up to god reminded me why is so important to have a personal relationship with god because the rest of the world is trying to break you left and right god will always lift you up higher and higher…don’t call it a comeback
I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU WHITNEY.
PEOPLE PLEASE STOP WITH THE CRAZY COMMENTS BECAUSE SHE IS A LEGEND. YES SHE FELL DOWN BUT AT LEAST SHE HAD THE STRENGTH TO GET BACK UP. WHITNEY STILL HAS THE PASSION TO PERFORM AND SHE LOVES HER FANS. ALL SHE NEEDS IS A LITTLE BIT OF VOCAL TRAINING. SHE HAS A GOD GIVEN TALENT. IT JUST NEEDS TO BE NURTURED AND SHE NEEDS TO TAKE CARE OF HER VOICE (THAT INCLUDES NOT SMOKING) AND SHE WILL BE ABLE TO DELIVER A POWERHOUSE VOCAL PERFORMANCE LIKE SHE IS KNOWN FOR. DON’T COUNT HER OUT JUST YET. I HEARD A FEW REALLY GOOD AND POWERFUL NOTES MAKE THEIR WAY OUT. SHE ALSO SEEMED LIKE SHE WAS LOSING HER BREATH A FEW TIMES. SHE WILL BUILD HER STAMINA BACK UP..ALL IN DUE TIME.
Whitney Houston had one the greatest voices ever. She made me cry at how beautiful she sang, but I don’t see her getting that back, still love her though. And I didn’t even recognize Ms. Bobbi Kristina! Wooo….guess it was baby fat…lol
good to see whitney on her feet agin .
i must say girlfriendzzz looks great, she seemed in great health. But I hope this isn’t a ploy by Clive Davis to do what is still being done to Britney Spears (but just with a little more restraint and control…and i’m not comparing the two women, just the “recovery” factors involved) and I see ya Bobbi K! You lost that lil’ baby fat you had on the show, so now all they have to do is close that daddy having gap that child inherited from her father! I lu u!
I can’t believe the comment made by some ignorant person, about Whitney sounding awful and not giving Mariah a chance. Those two people are on different levels, Whitney being at the highest. Even if Whit’s voice was cracking, what the hell is Mariah’s excuse. I did watch a live performance from Whitney on Oprah and she looked and sounded FABOLOUS. Of course it’s not gonna be as perfect as it once was, but she still sounds great. Her songs on this album are inspirational and actually have meaning. The mess the other people are supposedly singing like Mariah have absolutely no meaning what-so-ever and sounds like some stuff my 10 year could have put together. Give the lady a damn break, she has been through a lot and I think that she has done very well.
