People sometimes forget that these artist are real people who get nervous too and there’s always a different energy when a performance is live and there’s a crowd of people in the audience with excitement and expectations. It hits different.

There’s something about cece that brings out the best in Whitney … each time they sing together Whitney seems so relax n happy … the love between them is just …..❤

You can tell how much Whitney loved Cece...

I love this whole video. Brandys little outfit was so cute too! It screams 90’s! Chile she was singing too!!!

This is too cool to see. It says A LOT about how legendary Whitney Houston was, as an artist and performer, that it's her own band backing all of these artists at the Grammy's. I recognize Ricky Minor on bass (Whitney's music director), Bette Sussman (Whitney's piano player from the very beginning, was playing in clubs with Cissy), Wayne Linsey on keyboards, Kirk Whalum on sax, and I think I recognize Pattie Howard and Olivia McClurkin on backing vocals. All legends and geniuses in their own right. And that was Whitney's personal band through the 90s, making her live shows absolute magic. Says a lot.

I wonder when this rehearsal was compared to the actual show. Whitney sounded very good here.

Brandy should have been the one to play Whitney Houston and her life story, they were the same size, had some of the same tones, but would have been perfect, and she would have been rehearsed enough of being in Whitney's real life, to know how to betrayed the story, while giving authenticity and respect at the same time.

Whitney was sick during the actual Grammy show which is why this rehearsal sounds a lil better.

CeCe’s voice is the only voice that is comparable to Whitney’s, which is why I believe they meshed so well singing together.
