American singer and actress Whitney Houston has died at the age of 48.
The cause and the location of her death were unclear, her publicist Kristen
Foster told the AP news agency. A family spokesman confirmed the news.
Regarded as one of the most celebrated female acts of all time, Houston also
enjoyed success acting in films such as The Bodyguard and Waiting to Exhale.
But her later career was overshadowed by drug use and her turbulent marriage
to singer Bobby Brown.
Houston's background was steeped in soul and gospel music.
Her mother was gospel singer Cissy Houston and she was cousin to singer
Dionne Warwick, and goddaughter to Aretha Franklin.
Having grown up in New Jersey, she began singing in church and then in the
night clubs of New York, and was a model before being signed by Arista
Records.
At the height of her career in the 1980s and 90s she won many awards and
enjoyed several number one singles and albums.
In recent years drug use took its toll on the star and her voice - once
acknowledged as one of the finest in pop music - was badly damaged. | i*******e
