THE BODYGUARD,BY ORLANDO VICENTE,CUBA

 






  Being in Cuba I remember that the national TV exhibited it for the end of the year. Whitney's performance was good but Kevin Costner's almost ruined the movie, with his fuc ... face, permanent he wanted to imitate a real bodyguard.
    The song Whitney plays almost at the end of the film I Will AlWAYS LOVE YOU was a sales record. Written a few years earlier by country singer Dolly Parton, It is still the most sold song by a female singer of all time. I prefer to theme of the referred film "I HAVE NOTHING" to all others.
    In January of 1991, she sang the national anthem of the United States, "The Star Spangled Banner", in the Super Bowl No. XXV (the final of American football) held in Tampa (Florida). This interpretation was later recorded as simple due to popular demand, reaching the number 20 in the United States, being the only version of the American anthem that manages to be a best seller, obtaining the platinum disc. The single also helped raise funds for the American Red Cross for the benefit of Gulf War Veterans and their families.
  The artist's representatives confirmed the separation of the Brown-Houston marriage, which ended ended in divorce on April 24, 2007, obtaining her custody of her daughter. It is said that the rapper hit her and the beginning in the rite of drugs for which she received several tickets for rehabilitation.
  On Thursday, February 9, 2012, Houston met with singers Brandy Norwood and Monica Arnold, along with her producer Clive Davis, to perform their rehearsals for the 2012 Grammy Awards pre-party. That same day, she gave her final public performance, when she joined Kelly Price on stage and sang together "Jesus Loves Me", during the party.
  Two days later, on February 11, 2012 Whitney Houston died at the age of 48 in a hotel in Beverly Hills (Los Angeles), initially for unknown reasons.
