¿WHITNEY HOUSTON Y MICHAEL JORDAN JUNTOS?
Nuevos rumores sobre las relaciones personales de Whitney aparecieron el pasado mes de mayo. En esta ocasión, NEWS.AOL.COM la relacionan con Michael Jordan.

GRACIAS MAPACHE80
Gracias MAPACHE80 por añadirte a nuestro Mapa de Visitas ¡¡¡MUCHAS GRACIAS POR EL COMENTARIO!!!
OTRA CANCION, OTRO RUMOR...
Otra canción: "Only You" (con with Brian McKnight), ronda en Internet como una de las canciones que aparecerá en el álbum reaparición de Whitney Houston. Esto ya empieza a sonar extraño, son muchas las canciones con colaboraciones de artistas que se rumorean, en concreto seis. Pero para ser una reaparición tan importante, parece muy extraño un álbum con tantas uno con colaboraciones y tan pocas canciones en solitario. Una de dos, o están preparando un doble CD: uno con duetos y otro en solitario (que es muy muy muy improbable), o estos rumores que circulan por Internet tienen muy poco peso (que es muy probables)...

¿ABRIRÁ WHITNEY LOS BET AWARDS 2007?
Al parecer ya esta confirmada la lista de los artistas que actuarán en directo en los próximos premios BET 2007. En esa lista no se encuentra Whitney, pero Stephen Hill, el productor ejecutivo de los BET, no ha confirmado el artista que abrirá los premios, pero promete que será sorprendente. ¿Se estará refiriendo a Whitney?.
Seamos realistas, es muy poco probable que así sea, pero...¡¡¡NUNCA SE SABE!!!
Seamos realistas, es muy poco probable que así sea, pero...¡¡¡NUNCA SE SABE!!!
Declaraciones de Stephen Hill:
"We've built a brand by having the most dazzling opening performances in all Awards shows," said Stephen Hill, BET AWARDS '07 executive producer and BET EVP of Music Programming and Talent. "This year's open will simply and sensationally stun. Sometimes we tell you what'll stun, like last year's grand opening with Beyonce'. Others we sneak on ya, like 2005's reunion performance from The Fugees. We're choosing 'sneak attack' this year, but trust me: you don't want to get to your TV at 8:02 p.m. ... .. for real."

WHITNEY HOUSTON EN EL PUESTO NUMERO 11 DE LOS 25 MOMENTOS MUSICALES MÁS MEMORABLES (USA TODAY)
1Napster (1999)
Shawn Fanning’s file-sharing service, the first significant peer-to-peer music trading system, sparked a firestorm, prompting lawsuits from Metallica, Dr. Dre and major labels before a court order shut it down in 2001. Napster, later rebranded as a pay service, went belly up. Due partly to piracy, the music industry isn’t that healthy either.
2Live Aid (1985)
The enormous benefit concert, staged in London and Philadelphia for an estimated 1.5 billion TV viewers, raised $245 million for famine relief in Ethiopia, canonized organizer Bob Geldof. and unleashed a glittery rock revue starring Paul McCartney, Queen, Madonna, U2, and scores more.

3Michael Jackson on MTV (1983)
The R&B wunderkind broke the color barrier at the nascent music channel and blazed the trail for video innovation when Beat It, a nod to West Side Story, premiered in March. The epic zombie-themed Thriller followed in December.

4N.W.A.'s Straight Outta Compton (1988)
Gangsta rap exploded in violent, explicit street stories, including widely banned F--- Tha Police, fueling hip-hop’s mainstream popularity and intensifying censorship debates and a culture war.
5Smells Like Teen Spirit (1991)
Nirvana’s punk anthem brought alternative rock to the fore and heralded the grunge movement’s tsunami of Seattle bands from Soundgarden to Pearl Jam, rock’s counteroffensive to big-hair metal. Kurt Cobain’s 1994 suicide created a Gen X.
6iPods and iTunes (2001)
Technology allowed tailormade playlists, and music became less of a communal experience as buyers cherry-picked vast online reservoirs and listened in isolation. Sales patterns reveal fewer superstars and a long tail of niche artists.
7Radiohead (1997)
The most significant and influential British group of the era risked “commercial suicide,” according to its label, with the release of 1997’s OK Computer, an experimental pastiche of ambient electronica, art-rock and post-punk that by 2005 was declared the No. 1 album of the past 20 years in Spin.
8'N Sync (2000)
While Backstreet Boys, Britney Spears and the Spice Girls enjoyed the spoils of the teen-pop trend, nobody scaled the charts like ’N Sync, whose bouncy No Strings Attached sold 2.4 million copies its first week, pop music’s biggest opener ever.
9Purple Rain (1984)
Already a star, Prince reached the stratosphere with the semi-autobiographical film and Oscar-winning soundtrack that yielded such indelible hits as When Doves Cry and Let’s Go Crazy.
10SoundScan (1991)
The information system that tracks music sales altered the industry by revealing true data and replacing an inexact store-calling method tainted by errors and fraud.
11Whitney Houston (1985)
The big-lunged R&B songbird became the first artist to score seven consecutive No. 1 hits, beating the record of six held by The Beatles and the Bee Gees. She paved the way for Mariah Carey’s chart-topping vocal gymnastics and countless copycats.
12The Message (1982)
Grandmaster Flash & the Furious Five’s landmark anthem, the first significant rap tune to focus on inner-city turmoil, established the budding hip-hop genre as a vital vehicle for both musical creativity and social commentary.
13The CD (1983)
The compact disc entered the marketplace, giving birth to music’s digital revolution. It overtook vinyl in 1988 and cassettes in 1992.
14Garth Brooks (1990)
Brooks became a key figure in country history by defying genre conventions with commercially slick songs and arena-rock techniques. Shania Twain followed suit with pop vixen appeal and the SoundScan era’s top-selling CD.
15Eminem (1999)
WithThe Slim Shady LP, rap’s most successful, skillful and controversial player burst forth, thrilling young fans while horrifying conservative sensibilities with outrageous and violent rapid-fire rhymes. Denounced for misogyny and homophobia, he was also hailed as hip-hop’s clown prince and poet laureate.
16Like a Prayer (1989)
Madonna found acceptance as a serious artist with this personal, mature and vibrant pop collection, which yielded Express Yourself, Cherish and expensive, scandalous cutting-edge videos.
17The Rolling Stones' Bigger Bang Tour (2005)
“The world’s greatest rock’n’roll band” maintained the title with a swaggering and energetic revue that rang up $450 million to become the top-grossing tour of all time.
18George Harrison dies (2001)
Harrison succumbed to cancer at age 58, leaving behind grieving fans and only two living Beatles. The loss had greater resonance in the wake of resurging Beatles popularity inspired by the Anthology CDs and book and The Beatles 1 hits compilation, which sold 10.9 million copies.

19Parental Advisory stickers (1985)
After finding her daughter listening to Prince’s naughty Darling Nikki, Tipper Gore led the drive to slap warning labels on CDs. The industry’s voluntary effort both hampered and fueled sales.
20Born in the U.S.A. (1984)
Without damaging his working-class credibility, this seventh album pushed Bruce Springsteen to superstardom and yielded seven hits, including the widely misinterpreted title tune, co-opted by the Reagan campaign.
21American Idol (2002)
Churning out multiplatinum songbirds Kelly Clarkson and Carrie Underwood, the entertainment juggernaut is a rare water-cooler phenomenon in pop culture’s hyper-diversified landscape.
22You-phoria (2007)
From Nine Inch Nails to Alanis Morissette, acts build viral interactive fan bases on MySpace and YouTube while the corporate music infrastructure continues imploding.
23U2’s Zoo TV Tour (1992)
The Irish rock band’s high-techmultimedia spectacle established U2 as artistic masters of the stadium space, with no heir apparent in the succeeding generation.
24Wood$tock (1999)
After a successful revival in 1994, a less humane attempt in Rome, N.Y., ended in fires and looting by fans inflamed over high prices and poor sanitation.
25Rock andRoll Hall of Fame (1995)
Racket that had once been dismissed as a teen fad finally got a permanent home in I.M. Pei’s bold tower and glass pyramid in Cleveland, a symbol of its enduring place in the culture.

I RETURNED HOME
Todos los rumores en Internet apuntan a que el nuevo trabajo de Whitney Houston está acabado. Al parecer todas las canciones estarían grabadas y se habrían elegido las definitivas para ser publicadas en el álbum. Al parecer hasta circula ya por la red el título que daría le daría nombre: "I RETURNED HOME".
Si en fechas anteriores anunciábamos 6 posibles canciones del disco, ahora podríamos añadir dos títulos nuevos a esa incierta lista: "Word of Your Body" y "Those You've Known"
La lista de posibles canciones del nuevo trabajo de Whitney Houston que circula por la red quedaría así:
Those You've Known
Word of Your Body
I Look to You
I Didn't Know My Own Strength
África
Looking In The Mirror
Love (Is Here Again)
Lost World
Como siempre, tenemos que ser cautos a la espera de una confirmación oficial de toda la información sobre el álbum y de no ser facilitada con anterioridad por parte de la discográfica, tendremos que esperar a tener en nuestras manos el disco para saber el resultado final. El primer single tiene que estar al caer, en un par de meses como mucho debería estar en la calle como adelanto del álbum, al que tendremos que esperar por lo menos hasta octubre.
(Gracias JUANCHO)

¿WHITNEY EN BROADWAY?
Se está preparando la obra "El gato sobre el tejado"("Cat on a Hot Tin Roof") de Tennesse Williams (1955) que será representada en Broadway. Uno de los posibles nombres del reparto de la obra es el de Whitney Houston. ¿Veremos a Whtiney en Broadway?...
Aquí os dejo una de las informaciones pubicadas en NEW YORK POST:
A Broadway revival of "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof" with an all-black cast headed by Oscar winner Forest Whitaker as Big Daddy has im ploded - the result, theater sources say, of "inexperienced, inept and insane" producing.
The revival, which was to have opened in the fall, would also have starred Phylicia Rashad (Big Mamma), Audra McDonald (Maggie) and Anthony Mackie (Brick). It was to have been directed by Kenny Leon, who staged the hit production of "A Raisin in the Sun" starring Sean Combs.
But two weeks ago, Leon and Whitaker pulled out of the project after repeatedly clashing with the producers, a group of extremely wealthy hedge-fund managers with no previous theatrical experience.
Whitaker, says a source, was annoyed to learn that the producers, tired of waiting for him to sign his contract, were threatening to replace him with Danny Glover.
Leon, meanwhile, was fuming that the producers were second-guessing his casting. They called McDonald a "regional theater actress" (her four Tony Awards notwithstanding) and were trying to replace her with either Whitney Houston or Beyoncé.
"It was just insane stuff," says a source. "Beyoncé might look good in a slip, but then she has to act. They couldn't grasp that."
Once Leon was out, Rashad, who won the Tony for her performance in "A Raisin in the Sun," and Mackie, a handsome young actor much adored by the critics, quit the production as well, sources say.
"Everybody's glad to be out of it," one person says. "It's a mess."
The producers could not be reached for comment yesterday. But sources say they haven't given up on the revival, and have now turned to choreographer Debbie Allen - Rashad's sister - to direct.

ENTREVISTA A AMANDA GHOST
Amanda Ghost ha trabajado en varios temas para el nuevo álbum de Whitney Houston. Recientemente ha realizado una entrevista en la que ha dicho cosas como estas:
...He estado escribiendo algunas canciones para el nuevo álbum de Whitney Houston, Britney Spears y Sakira...
...Whitney y Britney me han transmitido muchas emociones sobre las que escribir...
...He escrito un par de canciones para cada una de ellas, pero como aún no sé si estarán en sus discos, no puedo hablar sobre las mismas...
...Tuve un encuentro con Whitney que es encantadora. Creo que está preparada para el lanzamiento de su nuevo trabajo y está centrada en eso...
...es una cantante asombrosa, estoy segura que sea como sea su nuevo trabajo, será todo un éxito...

AQUI OS DEJO LA ENTREVISTA ENTERA:
PREGNANT songwriter Amanda Ghost is the real voice behind Beyonce and Shakira's smash hit Beautiful Liar - after penning the song in the back of a taxi.British-born Amanda, 32, penned the No.1 single after meeting Beyonce's boyfriend, record mogul and artist Jay Z.But Beyonce gave her just 24 hours to finish the song and she ended up jotting down the lyrics in the back of a New York cab as she headed to the recording studio to meet the ex-Destiny's Child singer.As she celebrated getting to No.1 this week, Amanda - who also wrote James Blunt's You're Beautiful, said: "I met Jay Z a year ago and he liked my work. He said 'My girlfriend needs a song. Would you meet her?' and I said yes."We met in New York and I had a day to write it because she was going to record it the next day, so I had to write it in a cab in New York."The thing about songs is they go round in your head so it doesn't matter where you are. I wrote it partly in the taxi, partly in the hotel and partly in the shower. I wrote it down in the cab and she loved it, which was very lucky."Amanda is in demand because she manages to put feelings and emotions into words.She explained: "It is a lot of fun because you don't have to focus on your own problems and demons. You can just let it out. You try and put yourself in the position of the person who is singing."It is almost like a therapy session when I sit down with artists. I want to know what is going on inside their heads, what is going on in their lives. I want to know what is making them happy and what is making them sad. Then I channel all that into a song."With Beyonce and Beautiful Liar, I knew it was going to be a duet with Shakira and I didn't want it to be the whole fighting over a guy thing. The idea is the guy is a dog and they find out they are seeing the same person but instead of fighting over him, they say, forget him, he is a beautiful liar. Let's get on with our lives."She's been through that and every girl has had a guy lie to them. It's a topic every woman out there can relate to."She wanted it to be about female strength and empowerment and that gave me the inspiration."Troubled pop singers Britney Spears and Whitney Houston have both turned to Amanda to help them express their soap opera lifestyles.She has written songs for both of them ahead of comeback bids and revealed Britney has already checked into a studio to sing Amanda's songs.Amanda admitted: "I was doing some songs for Whitney on her new record and I have been doing some songs for Britney and some stuff for Shakira."Whitney and Britney have given us a lot to write about and have a lot of emotional experience to tap into."I have just done a couple of songs with each of them and I don't know if they will go on their albums yet. I can't tell you what the songs are about because they might never come out."I didn't meet Britney. I just did the song for her and she did the vocals last Friday. She is getting on with her life."I met Whitney who is lovely. I think she is getting ready to put a record out again and is really focussing on that and trying to get back in the studio."She is such an amazing singer, I'm sure that whatever she puts out will be a success."And Amanda has revealed she penned You're Beautiful with former army captain Blunt while he was still on active duty, five years before he shot to the top of the charts with the song."She said: "I met James when he was in the army. He didn't have a manager and he didn't have a record deal or a publishing deal. I was living in Los Angeles and had just put out my first album and had some time on my hands. He said he really wanted to write with me so I invited him over to Los Angeles where I now live."One of the songs we wrote was You're Beautiful, then five years later, he got a record deal and put it out and it was a huge hit."While celebrating her success, Amanda insists up and coming songwriters simply need to write about what they know to have a chance of replicating her achievements."I've been writing songs for seven or eight years and it is fantastic to suddenly be getting recognition and having these songs performed by artists who I admire," she said. "It's lovely and is the result of a lot of perseverance. Songwriting is five per cent inspiration and 95 per cent perspiration. It's a lot of work and is a craft you learn over many years."My advice to any songwriter is to try to be as honest as you can and to try to make it mean something because if it doesn't mean something to you, it won't mean anything to anyone else."Her main priority now though, is the baby she is expecting next month. Amanda, who is married to Scots-born TV producer Gregor Cameron, then plans to establish herself as an artist in her own right.She said: "I'm eight months pregnant. I'm putting out a record next January. It's very difficult to tour and promote a record when you are pregnant so I took this year off from being an artist and I am just focussing on the songwriting which is going so well. It's all good because the attention I get as a songwriter will hopefully reflect on the material I put out next year."
