@ATV & ASN Memories yes sadly but what I find weird is at the end of her life when she filmed the movie sparkle she got tested for drugs weekly and they all came back negative and even though she “fell asleep” in the bath tub she had bruises and gashes on her body her daughter was also found in the tub the night before
Wow… so hard to watch these old clips featuring Whitney knowing what we know now. Breaks my heart seeing her but seeing her smile here with Rosie is like a kiss from beyond. ❤
What a lovely and playful interview. I remember I was in college when this first aired. Rosie has a unique gift of bringing out the best humanity in people. Rarely did we get to see Whitney so carefree and upbeat. I miss her so much. Thanks for the memories, Rosie.
"So carefree and upbeat"...um, how about "totally high on something"? Even if I didn't know it was Whitney Houston I would think this person is on drugs. It's a different type of energy. An itchy, nervous energy that is not appealing at all. Isn't the habitual blotting of her sweaty face clue enough?
@@saltwatercb I’d rather focus on the positives. Bad habits don’t make you a bad person. She gave so much of herself to us. Let’s try to lift Whitney up instead of focusing on her troubles. 🙏🏻
Rosie could also be a bitch at times as well. She was cursing Whitney out some time earlier when she was sick and couldn't come in for the show. I'm glad Whitney was able to see the funny side and didn't take it too personally. I though Rosie did not handle it like a professional.
She is the QUEEN LEO! She represents us so well. We just have a light that you want to be around! She was taken away from us way too soon. She’s my fairy godmother and birthday twin Aug 9th
When Whitney shouted up in a blazer you knew she was gonna murder a microphone. Truth. My favorite part…the ENTIRE audience on their feet when she walks on stage. The entire world LOVED this woman. They still do. I swear she’s on her way to the Guiness Book of Records for “most movies made about a deceased celebrity” with TWO more films coming next year. She got A LOT of hate when her personal issues came back but the world always wanted her to save herself. Time has been kind and she is now universally lauded as THE greatest singer if our era. All she ever wanted to do was sing & make others happy. 💜💜💜💜💜💜
This so sad listening to her talk about her baby...at the time it was adorable but years later after they both leave a sad way makes u feel so 😢 sad...
Gorgeous ! Whitney just delivered a powerful masterpiece on stage there’s a music in you that requires so much energy... and she did it as easy as you eat a chocolate cake. This interview Is hilarious ! Nobody can match up the voice of America
Whitney's energy and enthusiam in the clip is just infectious! 😍 Rosie was really mean about her before so this could have been an awkward one but thank goodness they buried the hatchet and had a great time together..... and she absolutely SMASHED that live performance of "There's Music In You! Nobody will ever replace this woman she was truly one of a kind.
@@Susan2361 High or not she was always a beautiful, talented and charismatic woman. And quite frankly the whole drugs angle has been done to death already. Yes, she had a drug addiction....WE KNOW! Can we just move on now and focus on what we loved about her?
@@RainRemnantYes! I can still remember watching this in the living room with my mom and we were talking about the sweat pouring from her face! 😔 Don't do drugs! Just say no!🙏
Love Queen Whitney Houston, love her energy and enthusiasm. She was so much fun, love her playful hearty laugh. This is such a fabulous phenomenal interview Rosie. Love what you two are wearing, 90’s all the way. Whitney is so stylish, sophisticated, glamorous and luminous. Her charm and way of speaking is so special. She is so iconic legendary in the interracial version of Cinderella. What a cute sweet looking baby she is. Awww 👑⚜️💎🏆😍🥰😘🤩🌟 🤍 📺
Such A Beautiful Gorgeous Stunning Woman Whitney Houston My Favourite Female Singer Of All Time The Best Voice I Have Ever Heard Such A Sad Tragic Loss We Lost Her Way To Soon Her Daughter To Was Do Beautiful To God Has 2 Gorgeous Angels Up In Heaven 🙏🙏💐🌹 Such A Sweet Soul Whitney Houston Was RIP Honey We Love You ♥️♥️♥️🌹💐🌹💐💗❤️
I’ve seen this interview so many times and I never get over it. She’s hilarious and absolutely gorgeous. But the clarity of this video is 😍😍 the others that I’ve seen from the past are so hazy and blurry but this one is beautiful. I love her outfit too.
I Miss Whitney. She was the Greatest singer of all time. I still cry when i see her, when i hear her songs. Happy early Birthday in Heaven (august 9th).
@@lisacassar7040 Not if they don’t truly know the "truth” Whitney’s death was never ruled out as a drug overdose nor was her daughters. They never said Whitney even had a heart attack. It’s just strange to me. I know people want to believe the first thing they hear. However, a lot of people including Whitney’s family and ex family thinks that it’s more to the story. The stories keep changing up. Something just doesn’t feel right about it. When Chaka came out a few days later after Whitney died and said that her manager once told her that "she was worth more dead than alive”. I knew this was demonic. That’s why I’m saying do your research. The media can play you any type of way. You have to use your own mind, consciousness, and discernment in situations like this.
Very true. That goes for every rich famous person who died due to drugs, really. Too many people sucking up to them & telling them yes/whatever they want to hear, bc of their $$$ 😒
Whitney’s crew fired all of the “no” people. She had a bodyguard in the early 90s who reached out to John Houston, Whitney’s father telling him about Whitney’s drug use and how she needed help. He was fired soon after and not given a reason.
All the people saying “she’s high here!”. Yes, she absolutely is, who cares? You can’t change the past and her struggles with her demons only made her human and takes nothing from her accomplishments, greatness & legacy as the GREATEST singer of our era. Sorry Aretha, love u but you’re not the one. I choose to see Whitney as the kind, GENEROUS, mega-talented, beautiful (inside & out) giving, laughing, loving human she was.
Who cares? She died from the very drug use we're watching in this video. We're watching documented evidence of the cause of her impending death. You can't fault people for noticing. It's kind of a big deal. But that doesn't mean we don't appreciate her talent or impact on music.
What a beautiful soul! Makes me sad tho she was so high on this show. Skinny and can’t sit still! Keeps wiping her face. Sweating! Drugs suck RIP Beautiful
I loved the Rosie O’Donnell show so much it was the best show ever. I could not believe when she went off the air I felt a great sense of loss actually. Rosie has such a keen intellect and warm heart and speaks the truth about her own life with bravery. She is a fearless individual and so talented! I find her so interesting and her conversation it’s always fun and sometimes provocative. Because he is one of my favorite celebrities for sure!
I miss Rosie on tv. The Rosie ODonnell Show was my childhood. 💙💙😭🙏 I also miss Whitney Houston. Its sad watching this and thinking about the traumas she endured in life that went untreated and how she turned to drugs for coping and escape. What a special talent she was and what a tragedy that drugs pulled her into a painful and tragic years long death spiral... and took her little girl with her. Whitney was sexually abused in her childhood and went through those things at a time when no one talked about it and zero help/support/healing was available. Then she was forced to endure the pain, stigma and trauma of knowing she was bisexual and having to hide that about herself because bisexuality/homosexuality would not be accepted by society and that the revelation of such an innocent thing and a huge part of who she was could ruin her career. And then... we in society all made fun of, ridiculed, mocked and condemned and judged her when she became and drug addict. 😞 Even though I was just a kid back then, I feel terrible about this looking back and I hope all of us take some time and put it into honest reflection about the ways which these factors influenced her demise and how we can and should require ourselves, others and society as a whole do better in the future-both in regard to affirming and accepting the spectrum of identities and sexualities of consenting adults - as well as in how we approach CSA (child sexual abuse), that we resolve to intervene, to investigate and protect, that prioritize and protect trauma survivors and support them in healing and lastly in how we approach issues of drug use and addiction.
It's difficult to watch this knowing what we all now know. She can't sit still in her seat and seems under the influence. As a recovering addict, I understand the difficulties and trying to mitigate a life that your struggling with.
You were always good to Whitney Rosie!...and boy were y’all funny on SNL for the Mary Catherine Gallagher skit!💙 How lucky to sit so close to that voice in all of it's glory 🙌🏼.
Whitney I miss you. Glad I have and I can listen to you, your songs anytime. Omg I love 'Take good care of my heart' I love them all. Wherever you are, I know you are happy and singing your heart out❤️
I’ll never forget this interview. I came home from high school and I was like damn she is so so high right now. But I felt bad cause I had a big crush on her then when she started using I was like damn. I felt so let down cause drug use ran in both my sides of my family and I grew up knowing when someone was as high as a kite. RIP Whitney God gave you a voice that would be a sin to try and give credit with words
I could tell because she was sweating so bad. I feel bad for whitney though, she really was a talent, not only does she have one of the best voices ever, bur she was also a decent actress!! Wow, it's sad what the fame & pressure ultimately did to her.
Whitney gave her all while on this earth she gave Us her beautiful exceptional Voice and she was quite the beauty 😍 I don't have to mention her struggles they were her own I just want to enjoy her I wish ppl would do the same,damn she's gone let her rest in Love 🥰
"Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand." ~ Isaiah 41:10" ❤️✝️
The way Whitney talked about brandy how she wanted brandy to play Cinderella and called her herself reminded me of when Michael Jackson wanted Britney to do sing with him at his 30th anniversary and he called her himself. So sweet.
Omg I Loved this show soooo much. It takes me back to coming home from high school watching you everyday. Please please add some of the GLORIA ESTEFAN appearances
I just watched Rosie talk about the real reason that Whitney missed her original appearance. At this time Rosie realized Whitney had. drug problem and confronted Whitney's people that they needed to get her help.
@@crystalfeather9040 it’s hard to say if she was. Whitney herself said her drug addiction started around The Bodyguard time period. I guess it wouldn’t be a stretch to believe she missed her appearance due to drugs. But no one will ever know the truth
She has been on drugs before the bodyguard, she was only binging, after the bodyguard it got worse. Around this time on the Rosie Show was the first of her cancelling her appearances.
Whitney seemed a bit hyper. It seemed she was sweating a lot. While she was gracious and beautiful, I cannot but wonder if I was witnessing signs of an underlying problem. Such a beautiful woman and legacy.
She lived her life how she wanted and yes she had some regrets but life changed her before she could change herself that’s life.we still miss her her regardless
I see so many singers that smoke cigarette's. I think that's their instrument why would they damage their vocal chords like that. If you were a carpenter would you pick up a hammer and hit your hand everyday before work? No because you wouldn't be able to do your job. There are countless artists that smoke and year after year I see the difference in their voice. Living her life must have been so difficult. I guess the drugs numbed that pain. RIP you are missed.
Whitney and Rosiee Had a Great Friendship and There Chemistry was Amazing I Love The Things That Happened Back in The Day Things Now Are Bad No Professionalism interviews.
People thought her sweating was always drugs...it was not. She had a severe case of stage freight that she used to have to take medication for. It's so crazy that she seemed so confident on stage and so sure of herself but she was so insecure. I have sweating issues too when I have to do public speaking in front of a lot of people. You would think someone was pouring water on my head...I don't know why but it happens, and I carry my little white rag with me too..lol NO SHAME! lol
So true.....and on stage she sweat mostly because she requested the air to be turned off and those hot stage lighting. Barbara asked her how does she do it with the stage fright. She always seem to overcome it with the control of her voice
