Kehidupan awal

Whitney Elizabeth Houston lahir pada 9 Agustus 1963, di daerah yang pada saat itu merupakan lingkungan berpenghasilan menengah di Newark, New Jersey. Dia adalah putri prajurit Angkatan Darat dan eksekutif hiburan John Russell Houston, Jr dan penyanyi Injil Emily "Cissy" (Drinkard) Houston. Kakak lelakinya Michael adalah seorang penyanyi, dan kakak tirinya adalah mantan pemain bola basket Gary Garland. Kedua orangtuanya adalah orang Afrika-Amerika. Melalui ibunya, Houston adalah sepupu pertama penyanyi Dionne Warwick dan Dee Dee Warwick. Ibu baptisnya adalah Darlene Love dan bibinya yang terhormat adalah Aretha Franklin, yang ia temui pada usia 8 atau 9 ketika ibunya membawanya ke studio rekaman.Houston dibesarkan sebagai seorang Baptis, tetapi juga terkena Gereja Pantekosta. Setelah kerusuhan Newark 1967, keluarga itu pindah ke daerah kelas menengah di East Orange, New Jersey, ketika dia berusia empat tahun. Orang tuanya kemudian bercerai.[7]

Karier

Musik

Karena keberhasilan The Bodyguard, Houston memulai tur global lain yang luas (The Bodyguard World Tour) pada tahun 1993-94. Konser, film, dan rekaman grosenya membuatnya menjadi penghibur wanita berpenghasilan tertinggi ketiga pada 1993-94, tepat di belakang Oprah Winfrey dan Barbra Streisand menurut majalah Forbes. My Love Is Your Love, dirilis pada November 1998. Meskipun awalnya dijadwalkan untuk menjadi album hit terbesar dengan beberapa lagu baru, sesi rekaman sangat bermanfaat sehingga album studio baru dirilis. Tercatat dan dicampur hanya dalam enam minggu, itu menampilkan produksi dari Rodney Jerkins, Wyclef Jean dan Missy Elliott. Album debut di nomor tiga belas, posisi puncaknya, di tangga lagu Billboard 200.

Film

Peran film pertama Houston adalah di The Bodyguard, dirilis pada 1992 dan ikut membintangi Kevin Costner.

Houston menyatakan dalam wawancara tahun 1993 dengan Barbara Walters bahwa dia mengalami keguguran selama pembuatan film The Bodyguard.[9]
