International icon Janet Jackson dropped by the Anderson show and talked one-on-one with Anderson Cooper. The singer shared interesting life stories including those in her book, True You: A Guide to Finding and Loving Yourself, how she remembered Whitney Houston and the first time she saw people doing drugs at Studio 54:
I use to go to 54 a lot…Yeah, when I would be on hiatus from ‘Good Times.’ My mother said, “What do you want to do?” and I would, “I want to go to New York and visit Mike.” She’d would come out; mother and I and we would go to [Studio] 54. I was 10 or 11 years old at 54 dancing. You know it was the first time I had ever seen drugs. I couldn’t figure out why people were putting flour up their noises. I thought that was the stupidest thing! [laughs]
The Nutrisystem spokesperson talked about her new diet and personal wellness. She also touched on why she ran off and privately married her first and former husband, James DeBarge and how her father never wanted to be called ‘Dad’. Check out the video clips down below. Continue

It what would prove to be a mere coincidence, the Valentine’s Day episode of FOX’S hit show GLEE features singer/actress Amber Riley (who plays Mercedes Jones) singing the Whitney Houston song, “I Will Always Love You.” This episode aired on the heels of the tragic death of the music icon this past weekend in Beverly Hills.
We happened to speak to Amber Tuesday night via Twitter, where she had this 
to say about recording the song and being influenced by Whitney Houston.
“I Will Always Love You” was a song I didn’t even want to touch. They ['GLEE' Producers] have been asking me to sing it since Season One. It was vocally challenging of course but that song is just sacred to me. Whitney Houston was one of music’s angels. I admired, loved, and looked up to her. Her music made me feel like I knew her, like we were close. There will never be another Whitney and no one will ever take her place.
