EXCLUSIVE


Houston at her Whit's end











Pitiful ... haggard singer
Picture: BIG









































By VICTORIA NEWTON
Showbiz Editor

SUPERSTAR Whitney Houston has spiralled into a world of squalor and degradation on deadly crack — as the shocking pictures in today's Sun newspaperreveal.


It shows the disgusting mess in the singer’s bathroom after a drug binge.

Drug paraphernalia including a crack-smoking pipe, rolling papers, cocaine-caked spoons and cigarette ends are strewn across the surface tops.

But Whitney, 42, no longer cares.

She was one of the biggest female artists of her generation — with a string of ’80s and ’90s hit singles like I Wanna Dance With Somebody and more than 100million albums sold.

Now she is a paranoid wreck hopelessly hooked on crack.

Drugs have devastated her once-famous beauty.





Voice loved
by millions

WHITNEY burst into the charts in 1985 with her debut Saving All My Love For You.
Chart toppers like I Wanna Dance With Somebody and One Moment In Time followed.
I Will Always Love You, from the soundtrack of her hit 1992 movie The Bodyguard, sold an astonishing 37million copies.
She won 21 American Music Awards and six Grammys.



She is haggard, with dark circles under her eyes and a deranged look on her face.

She regularly disappears for days and weeks at a time — holed up in seedy crack dens in dangerous parts of town.

And she has blown much of her multi-million pound showbiz fortune on her habit.

Now family and friends fear the addiction will end in her death unless she can beat it.

The bathroom photo was taken by Whitney’s sister-in-law Tina Brown at the five-bedroom mansion the star shares with her drug-abusing hubby Bobby Brown in Atlanta, Georgia.

Tina,sister of Bobby, is herself a self-confessed former addict who once regularly took crack with mum-of-one Whitney.

She is now clean. But she said: “The truth needs to come out. Whitney won’t stay off the drugs. It’s every single day. It’s so ugly. Everyone is so scared she is going to overdose.�

This is beyond sad - this is hearbreaking.

Below is the link of one of her early performances in 1986 as she sang the Greatest Love of all. One of my all time favourite songs which I first grew to love by George Benson. Got me throught much of my teenage angst. Then whitney came along with her version and it has been a my personal anthem. "Learning to love yourself is the greatest love of all" - something we all need reminding of.... even The Great Whitney Houston.

damn this is so hearbreaking.

I can't believe that picture is of Whitney. It must be a fake.

Well, who knows with tabloids and celebrity gossip and the like.

But it seems that when she got mixed up with him her life started going downhill bigtime.

It is really sad to see people "crack up"... no pun intended.

Yes there was. That's why you put it in quotation marks and drew attention to the fact you made a funny... or your perception of a funny anyway.
