48 is only 2 years younger than my mom. So young. RIP

 

[Zyzyxxz]

What a waste of youth and talent, I thought she was off the drugs or was it something else?

 

[Dreams-Visions]

I swear to god there's one of these in every thread like this.

yep. someone always needs the attention.

What a waste of youth and talent, I thought she was off the drugs or was it something else?

nobody knows yet.

i never said they were bad, but i don't know whitney houston and have never met her. In fact, she has had no impact on my life. she made her choices ...and died, but am i gonna put sad faces and act like i care because the rest of the internet is following along? its a trend like every other celeb death....

naa.. I'm simply gonna move on with my life after reading it.

But you're still in this thread trolling people. Why? If you don't care like you keep saying, then get the fuck out and go to the billion other places you can be right now.

I will never understand this kind of thing, besides blantant trolling. "LOL I don't care about some dumb celeb I don't know, so I'm gonna post rude comments in the thread to let everyone know durr hurr"

 

[Rocket Punch]

yeh, because I'm sure ur weeping right this moment.

aeiko you're an asshole of the first order. You cared enough to give judgement on the life of a human being and now you're making fun of those that don't share your sentiments. Fuck off and go live your perfect life elsewhere. Nobody here cares what you think.

 

[JCX]

Grammy's are probably quickly getting a bunch of female singers together for her tribute tomorrow.

I could see Adele, Beyonce, Christina, Florence, Adele, and maybe Dolly doing it.

 

[krypt0nian]

yeh, because I'm sure ur weeping right this moment.

Fuck you you piece of shit. I am actually torn up and crying. It's hard to believe but people in this world wore affected by her presence in this world. Something a shitstain like you would never be able to do.,

 

[DangerousMali]

I'm going to make the nostalgia cry right now

my eyes are so sweaty

 

[Lebron]

There's always those fucks that have to shit up a thread for no reason.

 

[Preble]

i always love reading these threads, just because of how overly dramatic people suddenly get over the deaths as if they've lost a family member. it's more of a social conformity thing... LETS ALL BE SAD TOGETHER.

Dang man...

 

[Anth0ny]

Damn =(

Again, for someone who doesn't care, you certainly seem to be frantically refreshing the page an awful lot.

Some of us enjoyed her music and simply want to share that. Your smug attempts at elitism are misguided and not necessary in a thread about a person's death. Though I doubt you'll be posting in this thread much longer.....

back on topic, I was still hoping for a comeback. It had been reported that she had cleaned up and was working on a new record. Sad we'll never get to hear it. Her troubles could have made for an incredible album.

People form connections with artists that create things that resonate with them. There's nothing wrong with that.

 

[Crumpet Trumpet]

It's like clockwork.

Let's stop giving him attention.

 

[Koomaster]

Oh noes!

 

[Vire]

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

did not

see this cooooooming!!!!!!!!

I'm sorry but this is fucking hilarious.

RIP...

 

[Rain_ng]

RIP

A shame, Such an amazing voice.

 

[aeiko]

Okay. Now that, I can agree on.


Whatever, dude. You're free to feel however you want to feel about any celebrity death. We may not have known these people personally, but in the case of Whitney Houston, a lot of us were raised on her music and have taken a liking to her voice. Although her health was going through a downward spiral, and I'm not going to lie and say that no one say this coming but there's no denying that she had talent. She will be missed by many.

so a person having talent gives their death more meaning?... then let's say that avg dude who never made the news. I guess i simply don't take death personally unless it's someone who I've met and have known.

You'll last long here.

Christina will be saving her tampon for the funeral performance.

 

[Nobility]

Oh wow, didn't expect to hear this anytime soon.

 

[HomerSimpson-Man]

Holy shit.

People are fast.

 

[JohnTinker]

TMZ reporting she died at the Beverly Hilton Hotel

 

[anaron]

What else is there to say? Shit.

 

[The_Monk]

So young.

=/

 

[shuri]

Wow so many fans of Whitney on GAF! Lets look at previous Houston Appreciation thread!

Whiney Houston is Back
Whitney is still a babe
Whitney's comeback album

As those threads show, GAFFERS always had a lot of appreciation and respect for her.

choice quotes from posters:

Sorry, Whitney.. whenever I see you, I see that that constipated junkie woman who had Bobby Brown dig into her ass with his fingers so that her stuck poo-poo rocks would get movin'.

If you by babe mean pig. Then yes she is.

Stay Classy, OT!

It's a thread about a person passing just less than what, an hour ago? What do you expect coming in here dude, grow up.

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

Wow I thought she would have more years
R.I.P

 

[PorkChopSandwiches]

i miss bobby

 

[perfectnight]

Oh you're so cool and jaded...

If you don't understand, don't be a jerk. I grew up listening to Whitney. I remember seeing her in Jet magazine as a Jet beauty before she was discovered. Her songs were the soundtracks to lots of people's happy moments, so people make an emotional connection to her ART because it made them feel good. If you're so out of touch that you don't have the same connections, or can't understand that others do, just keep it to yourself.

Yeah it's comedy when people suffer, until they die, then you feel bad. And if you don't, then there's definitely something wrong with you. Lack of human empathy is a problem.

He's laughing at all the conforming to society in here, man.

 

[Dreams-Visions]

please god no. Someone call Anita Baker, Mariah Carey, Stephanie Mills, Natalie Cole and Patti LaBelle.

Please don't let these new chicks anywhere near this other than as part of a backup choir or something. Not mentioning the old school women is almost disrespectful, JCX.

 

[Pinko Marx]

i miss bobby

we all miss bobby porkchop...we all do.

 

[Grisby]

Jesus, at that age too. RIP.

 

[Dishwalla]

Damn. I can't say I was a fan, but... damn. So unexpected.

 

[Yasae]

I can't name any of her songs off the top of my head.

I Wanna Dance with Somebody
Shoop
I Will Always Love You (though that's not originally her song - thank Dolly Parton)
Heartbreak Hotel
Your Love is My Love
I'm Every Woman

Come on now!

 

[blame space]

You know they will like they always do, and it will be shitty.

Stop posting and just leave the thread. You are a junior member and if you get banned it will be permanent.

 

[aeiko]

and btw i was a huge HUGE fan of heath ledger. he died, and i was over it in 5 minutes. the fact of the matter is that people are selfish in nature and this whole grieving process is just a fad.


omg whitney died...tweet n fb about it!! lets share the pain together. i find it ridiculous.

 

[xavi42]

Rest in peace

 

[Kai Dracon]

Oh wow.

I don't follow celebrity news, I honestly didn't know about past drug problems or the rumors of such. But 48 is still way in the prime, so god damn.

I'll admit I wasn't in to her later music, I liked her 80's pop and power ballads, but her raw talent as a genuine diva was some once in a generation stuff.

I am not cracking up right now... but the photo of her and MJ together is really hard to look at.

 

[Angelus Errare]

Fuuuck man!

I grew up to her music, my mom use to always play some Whitney tunes. I'm slightly depressed now.
