Lifetime's Whitney Houston biopic airs January 17, and marks the directing debut of acting god and life idol Angela Bassett.

Lifetime's clips from their new Whitney Houston biopic are coming fast and furious in the weeks leading up to its January debut. Today, we got Yaya DaCosta, as Houston, recording one of the late star's biggest hits "I'm Your Baby Tonight." *does a Whitney-dressed-as-mod-Audrey Hepburn snap*
Lifetime's Whitney Houston biopic, Whitney, which premieres in January and might not be terrible, will cover the rumored romantic relationship between Houston and her best friend Robyn Crawford.

To follow-up its god-awful Aaliyah movie, Lifetime TV will air an Angela Bassett-directed biopic about the life of Whitney Houston, Whitney, on Jan. 17, 2015. We have a few photos from the set and I'm not getting my hopes up but pre-judging from these images, it maybe might not be terrible??
Whitney Houston had a little something to do with Beyoncé's solo career. During an interview promoting her new Oxygen reality show, Fix My Choir, Michelle Williams recalled the time that Destiny's Child first met Whitney and heard her singing the group's classic anthem, "Say My Name."
On Tuesday's episode of The View, Barry Manilow stopped by to promote his just-released duets album. This album is very special; it's entirely tracks of Manilow performing with people who are dead.
The movie hasn't even been made yet but already the filmmakers behind Lifetime's upcoming Whitney Houston biopic are defending the project against vocal critics, including Cissy Houston, the late singer's mother.

Between the period of October 2011 and March 2012, Lindsay Lohan completed 120 hours of community service at the LA County Morgue, which was part of her shoplifting sentence.

Incredibly, Justin Timberlake genuinely seemed to have no idea that "Take Back The Night," his latest club single for all of us to get SeXXXy to, shares a name with a massive sexual assault awareness campaign.
Katie Couric had Kelly Rowland on her show today, and while the things she said were fine – she's happy for Beyoncé; it's no one's business who the guy in "Dirty Laundry" is ("He's a good guy and I'm really happy for him the way his life turned out"); Taylor Swift is a "gangster" for singing about her relationships –…
On last night's episode of Bravo's Newlyweds: The First Year, we got to watch engaged couple Jeff and Blair experience Whitney Houston's death together.
