    Something isn’t right. At the end of the video whitney’s voice is singing, but the mic isn’t near her mouth. SHE Is lipping to a live sounding track like Janet, Mariah and Madonna. HORRIBLE. they all deceiving the public..

    not very cool.

    Whitney should have been promoting Million Dollar Bill – Clive Davis Needs to Retire, whitney’s promotion is a mess

    Mariah as well, LA REID is horrible. she needs an athem single like STANDING O which is just as good as umbrella and single ladies…and he releases HATEU.

    These old men need to retire, they have no idea

  2. sookie

    YES i agree with shiela and whitney promoted the cd for one week and she disappeared and yes mariah carey needs to release standing o,o,o,o,o, o

    the record label men are old

  3. Mike

    LA REID RUINED JANETS CAREER AND MARIAHS LAST CD AND HE RELEASES WRONG SINGS

    CLIVE DAVIS RELEASES WRONG CD SINGLES LOOK AT POOR FANTASIA SHE HAD A INCREDIBLE SINGLE WITH BEAUTIFUL AND HE DID NOT RELEASE IT

    ALICIA KEYS IS THE ONLY ONE WHO HAS CONTROL OF HER CAREER

  4. MISSY

    SHE SOUNDS NICE STILL DONT THINK THE CD IS ALL THAT, ITS JUST OK

  5. sweets

    That was a good one I really enjoy it alot

  6. Jayson

    Whitney was definitely not lip synching.. That would be a lot of ad libbing to remember if she was. I liked it. You’re right though, she didn’t promote much in the US. Still managed to outsell Mariah in the first week sales though.. I love both ladies, I hope they strenghten those voices though.

  7. LISA1

    WHITNEY SHOULD RELEASE WORTH IT AND MARIAH NEEDS TO RELEASE STANDING OVATION OR ITS A WRAP

  8. LISA1

    @ JAYSON – WHITNEY HAS NEVER OUTSOLD MARIAH. EVER, THE WEEK AIN’T OVER DEAR

  9. S_cupcake

    Humz…maybe she just needs to keep practicing live performances to get back to where used to be? -sigh

  10. ROB

    at the end of the video the mic is no where near whitneys mouth so this is weird and i think it may have been a prerecorded performance

    and we all know whitney does not do mariahs numbers-they both have different fans

  11. Jayson

    @ Lisa1… Honey the week is over.. Whitney sold about 350,000 records and debuted at #1.. Mariah is expected to sell about 150,000 and be outsold my Paramore, taking the #2 spot.. Unless you plan on buying a few extra copies, I think its a wrap.. Really, it’s not that serious.. I purchased both albums, and though I prefer Whitneys a little more, they’re both great.. calm down buddy..

    Anyways, I figure since she’s in a huge arena there’s bound to be a few milliseconds of lag time like when people do performances at football stadiums..

  12. janet

    i like mariahs cd better seems like whitney didnt try very hard on this cd

  13. Kim

    Am I looking at another video? I don’t see the mic being away from her mouth and her still singing.. Are we talking about that last note?? Exactly how close does the mic need to be?

  14. tae04

    Whitney sounded great and that was totally live! That wasnt even sung exactly like the album version, you could her all the different nuances.

  15. janet

    @ jayson

    i think mariah will be number 1 because she has a huge fan base but mariah has released wrong singles before and whitney just gives up

  16. janet

    @ kim 4:28- SHE PUTS THE MIC UP AND THE VOCAL IS THE SAME

    ITS A LIVE SOUNDING TRACK

  17. Maria

    It took a few listens before I got into Mariahs album, but I like it now. Standing O, Languising, Ribbon, and Inseperable are all faves.. I think I may have just preferred Whitneys because it had been so long.. Janet you’re right, it didn’t seem like Whitney put all that much into this record, which is why I’m hoping the next is even better. With each performance I see, I notice her voice getting a little stronger.

  18. ditto

    aye, number 1, dont try to throw janet and madonna under the bus because Whitney smoked her talent away and I hate to be so blunt about it but that’s exactley what she did, it was hell whatching that car crash slowly and steadily over the past 15 years and not being able to do anything about it and as aresult her claim to fame, that being her voice suffered as a result.

  19. Kim

    I just checked out 4:28.. You can hear her voice fadeout when she moves the mic away suddenly so I think it’s live.. I could be wrong though, who knows.. Regardless, I liked the performance.

  20. bonnie

    ITS NOT LIVE I SAW THAT SHES FAKE

  21. tae04

    Why are we talking about Mariah?? This is about Whitney and her good performance.

  22. leann

    I really enjoyed this performance and it was great to hear Whitney singing her high notes again flawlessly with no gaps. To the 2 posters above, yall must be really young because, ‘The Voice’ Ms. Houston has NEVER lipsynced. She will give you what she has LIVE whether good or bad voice. That is what I admire about her. She keeps it real and never deceives her fans.

    Whitney’s cd is fantastic and I hope that they release Worth It folled by Salute. The conviction in her voice when she sings tells me that really feels her songs.

    Now, I just want to see her perform like this in the US when she gets back. Europe has really showed her love with her album debuting at #1 in over 10 countries without a video or her there to promote. That is on some LEGEND status there!

    Regarding Mariah, I dont know why I still have to read about her in a Whitney thread or vice versa. I agree L A Reid is shady- he gave Whitney bad advice with Just Whitney was released and his son is Whitney’s godchild. IWKWLI is not a good single for her- radio is not playing ballads by the divas- they want beats- urban ac may play it and AC but not pop and urban.

    I wish her luck but her sales will suck this go around. They are projecting less than 200k and that pales in comparison to Whitney’s 311k first week with no video and little promo.

  23. bria

    There was nothing fake about htis performance. The problem is you all so use to such terrible talent that you just don’t even know when someone is killin it. She is making asses out of all the people that said her voice was gone. That voice is getting better and better with each performance. She killed it. That last note was the real deal baby you can’t fake something like that. She is just warming up for all the naysayers. When God gives you a talent you can’t give away nor smoke it away. No matter how hard you try. The song is not that great of a song period but she killed it. And no matter how negative you all try to be you can’t take that away from her.

  24. MARY

    Janets/LA REID cd was bland and she keeps choosing the wrong singles, enjoy could have saved her cd, but she was stupid.

    Mariah/LA REID keep forgetting what single to release, release wrong singles, put out videos to late, and i agree Standing Ovation is the hit, and those fools keep self-destructing

    Whitney/Clive release too many videos and not the correct single and whitney is lazy and she will not promote her cd

  25. gian

    Go Ms.Whit- you was SANGING and feeling yourself with those crazy adlibs. I can’t wait until she gets more comfortable being back on state- her voice has improved so much.

    to the person who suggested that she was lipsyncing when she hit those notes= #fail!!

  26. JaNAY

    Her voice isn’t what it used to be and her album isn’t all of that. It’s a shame. My money is still on Toni Braxton! Can’t wait for her new album her song Yesterday is amazing.

  27. gian

    @Bria: Preach sistah!!

    That was a signature Whitney note if I ever heard it and it was LIVE. She’s coming back to promote in the STates. She has Clive and he always advise her right. Arista is proud of this album and I’m sure has great things in store for it. You don’t sell 670k records in 5 weeks and abandon it.

    Her cd is already a smash! I can’t wait for her tour and movies again.

  28. Lisa

    @ Leann

    you must be pretty old because you cant spell, but i’ll give you a pass on that

    Whitney is not singing live here and you can see when she puts that microphone up and the vocal is still the same. Its a live sounding track which they go into the studio and sing a live sounding version. Beyonce uses it alot, look at Tyra show, single ladies performance, the performance sounds live and she’s lip singing

    Mariah Carey is on mars and thats where shes been since rainbow, after that breakdown the bit ch went crazy. She has several great singles and shes clueless what to release.

    la reid and clive davis please retire

  29. Lisa

    to Gian:

    the cd is a flop it’s out of the top 10

    whitneys cd is flop

  30. JA

    love the performance, im really excited for million dollar bill though.

  31. helen

    she sounds horrible so disappointed, you call this a comeback? so sad

  32. Miles

    she is so not the same its like looking at a broken doll that you put a good wig and make up job, but she just ain’t the same barbie

  33. Jasmine

    Whitney’s CD was ok. It could have been better if they used Akon to produce more tracks on it.

    A lot of people blame LA Reid for Mariah’s last CD not doing as well as it could have but I actually liked E=MC2 better than Memoirs. People forget that LA Reid is a businessman first and he only cares about the royalty money he gets from being executive producer on Mariah’s projects.

  34. Miles

    whitney and mariah need new people to do there cd singles

  35. Creefer

    100% live and sounding real good. Keep it up boo.

  36. Loou

    the video is a lipsinging masterpiece, all but the mess up she does not being on point at the end

    THESE WASHED UP DIVAS GET THE BEST PRODUCERS, THE BEST VIDEOS AND THEY FORGET TO BRING THEIR CONFIDENCE AND VOCALS

    THIS WAS A LOW POINT FOR WHITNEY

  37. JESSICA

    IT WAS OK I DO LOVE LOVER, BUT IT WAS JUST OK,

    LIKE KEYSHIA COLE/BRANDY/MONICA OK

    NOT-WHITNEY HOUSTON OLD SCHOOL OK

  38. TrueBlood

    mariah carey and whitney houston are record company pawns and they have very limited vocals now from Alcohol Abuse and Drugs

    When Mariah Carey had her breakdown it was not a breakdown she was in a Drug Rehab Clinic in CT, she was there for pill dependancy and alcohol and it ruined her voice.

    Whitney Houston, well we know her story

    these women have been thru hell

  39. REAL

    HATERS…cry,,,weep and moan all you want…Whitney slayed here….to the lambs running scared like a headless chicken….THIS WAS ALL LIVE BABY….Mama don’t lipp……U KILLING EM WHITNEY!…number 1 album…already gold….now ur pipes are getting back stronger than steal….keep the haters hating…LMFAO! Mariah who?PULEEEASE CHILE! Whitney Houston is the one!

  40. Whitneysfan2002 (KylanJacobs23)

    WoW. The performance is “LIVE” I can feel my Whitney as she moves through these notes. And I am listening very intently as she transitions from each word of this song, “I Look To You.” Whitney’s CD is a blessing. It’s a GREAT album. Whitney Houston is # 1 Female Singer in my book. Her Album, I LOOK TO YOU has already sold GOLD status. And, will most likely be PLATINUM by years end. It’s a different day PEOPLE. Ya’ll need to find the hate within and dwell on that.

  41. Help Me, Rhonda

    well i think she sounded great…considering she practically smoked her wig off for the past few years

    her voice will never be the same..but this is a LOT better than i’ve heard

  42. Melissa

    mariah and whitney have been through it and it seems like they didnt give there all to these cds or promotions

  43. Melissa

    4:28 is lipsinging at it’s best. YOU WHITNEY FANS ARE AS CRAZY AS HELL

    THE WOMEN IS NOT SINGING ITS A RECORD

  44. DD

    Whitney is not crisp…she’s talking through her song. She need a cleansing or vocal lesson…Yes I know she the best but after all the drug I think she needs help to renew her voice or the drug has taken its toll.

  45. BILL

    AFTER WATCHING THE VIDEO IT WAS A TRICK

  46. Nothing But Love

    I can see why i stopped coming to CL you fools know nothing!!! that preformance was 100% live just her voice and the music!!! open your damn ears people.

    @ Lisa

    Girl shut up!! how is her CD a flop when it debut at #1 and spent OVER a month in the top 5??? Its only gonna be out the top 10 for the first time this week, and thats because of all the new releases coming out you idiot!!!!

  47. TJ

    So what happens when Mariah comes in at #2 behind PARAMORE??? With guess what 160-170K hahahahaha! That’s sooo embarrassing for someone liker her. Her cd is God awful and it shows with the anemic album sales.

    Whitney slays and will always slay. Don’t hate on Whitney b/c she’s on top. She has the highest selling debut for a female artist this year. #1 in the US and #1 worldwide.

    She sounded AMAZING LIVE!!! Just because your DIVA lips all the time doesn’t mean you have to throw shade at Whitney because she actually SANGS! Her voice is getting better each performance. Too bad I can’t say that for Mooriah!

  48. luvsong

    whit sounded great i love how her vocals are diffrent everytime never the same ad-libs…no faking here

  49. REAL

    O…by the way…at the initial HATER @Sheila…get the hell out of hera u dumb bItch….she has two singles out…I Look To You and Million Dollar Bill….if you had taken the time to read before you were so quick to judge an hate….you would have seen that she is also going to sing Million Dollar Bill In France on Oct 6th….HATER!!!!

  51. RENEE

    THANK YOU JESUS!!!!FOR DELIVERING WHITNEY FOR BRINGING HER BACK TO PERFORMING. SHE IS A LIVING TESTIMONY AND SOUNDS AND LOOKS WONDERFUL. ITS SO SAD WHEN PEOPLE CANNOT PRAY AND BE HAPPY FOR EACH OTHER. WE ALWAYS HAVE TO COMPARE AND BE LITTLE EACH OTHER. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK WHITNEY, YOU ARE A BLESSING.

    *** J-RECORDS DOES NEED TO LOOK INTO HOW IT PROMOTES ITS ARTIST.

  52. BARBIE *THE REAL ONE*

    SHE SOUNDED GREAT!!!! MARIAH AND MS. HOUSTON HAS MADE NAMES FOR THEM SELF ALREADY MAD HISTORY BEEN THERE AND DONE THAT

  53. Ace

    Im confused as to where y’all hear a recorded track. Thats was all the way live. Wasnt her greatest, but I be damned if she didnt sing her ass off. Her voice is indeed getting stronger, and stronger with every performance. She’s dusting them vocal cords off. I LOVE IT. For you haters just stop it, youre making yourselves look stupid with these allegations and stop bringing Mariah up, I dont see her doing any show stopping performances either… no comparison, no comparison at all. Two different lanes

  54. Thought

    Whitney = Always Live

    No matter how great or tore up she may sound.

  55. Rolling Like A River

    Whitney’s voice is not as immaculate as it was back in the day. But she has so much more soul since she became a crackhead. I just love her! Whitney forever!!

  56. ASS WIPES ALL U ALL

    YOU ALL IDIOTS! THIS SHOW IS COMPLETELY LIVE! WETTEN DASS IS THE BIGGEST LIVE SHOW IN EUROPE, NORMALLY 2-2.5HRS IN LENGTH. THAT VIDEO RECORDING IS NOT GOOD QUALITY. OTHER YOUTUBE VIDS ARE BETTER QUALITY AND IT’S LIVE!!!!!!!! LIVE INSTRUMENTS, BACKING CHOIR, ETC ADN WHITNEY SINGS IT. YOU CAN HEAR AN OFF NOTE WHEN SHE STARTS AND THIRD WAY INTO THE SONG, DEF. LIVE. SHE WUD HAVE DONE IT AGAIN IF RECORDED TO ELIMINATE THAT. U DIOTS WOULDN’T KNOW A LIVE PERFORMANCE SINCE ALL OF U’S LISTEN TO AUTO-TUNED BACKING TRACKS ALL UR SHORT LIVES. STFU!!

  57. Supreme

    Im sorry but Whitney n Mariah need to sit down. Their voices are gone, im sorry.
    LMAO @ 55 “she has so much more soul since she became a crackhead” ahahaha

  58. american haters couldn't keep her down

    american haters supplied the drugs that should have killed her, like they did michael, but thank God our goddess is back and she brings an R. Kelly song with her to bring him back with her. Thank God.

  59. Singer

    Whitney KILLED!! 100% live….Whitney NEVER lipps…..haters…fall back! Each performance is getting better!!!

  60. gilbert
