Whitney Houston

It’s been just about seven years since Ms. Houston sat down with anyone and it’s been an incredible seven years for her. 

She has battled her drug addiction, left her abusive husband, hooked up with a younger man and she’s releasing her new album, I Look To You, on August 31, 2009. 

Oprah is calling it "the most anticipated music interview of the decade" and has deemed it important enough to be the first interview of her 24th season. 

You know that Oprah is going to ask the questions you want to know (she has made me squirm on numerous occasions). 

What are you hoping Oprah will ask?  I want to hear about what really went down with her ex-husband, Bobby, and I want to know about her struggles with drugs since she has vehemently denied rumors of her addiction in the past. 

I’d also like to hear how her daughter, Bobbi Christina, is doing.  Whitney’s been great at keeping her out of the public eye but I’d like to know how she handled her parents’ divorce and her mother’s rehabilitation.

Whatever the case, it’s going to be an interesting episode!

She also talked about the atmosphere at the event and wrote: "ALICIA KEYS WROTE ONE OF THE SONGS. She danced while it played. L.A. Reid, Dionne Warwick, Whitney’s mom Missy,and lots of other friends, family" (she later corrected herself and said that Whitney’s mother’s name is actually Cissy).

Martha also included a link to this snapshot of Whitney performing.
