I'm angry again!!
Wxhitney Houston is dead at 48 years old, & I'm angry that she is. If she hadn't been a gorgeous, uber-sexy, uber-talented showbizz "property" whom dozens of theatrical financial magnates felt they owned (& who owed them big time), she might be just another alive and marginally content Nobody tonight.
There is so much that I hate about "show bizz"' & its whips & suckers & spinners. Most talented people never make it in the back door, thank heaven. Of them that do, 98% are out in 6 months. They survive in life, probably, although varying estimates never recover from their "failure" and some commit suicide. The "bizz" taints, like any addiction.
Whitney Houston was by so many accounts a huge talent and nice girl when she started, pretty trusting. She never had a chance.
I love talent but I hate the bizz.

over till another trashed talent dies...
