It's 1993, the night of the Billboard Awards, Legendary Iconic Superstar Whitney Houston was on the radio hard and deep for the entire year. The excitement was in the air at the Shrine Auditorium,and I was like a little kid in a candy story, I was so excited that I was there, during intermission I noticed Whitney walking down the isle she was dressed all in red with long curly hair flowing and on her arm was her then-husband Bobby Brown. Closer to the end of the evening Whitney took to the stage to do a LIVE rendition of her "I Have Nothing" hit, she sang the hell out of that song, she gave a thunderous performance and had the entire auditorium on their feet, the Standing Ovation seemingly went on for hours. After her performance Quincy Jones presented her with a record breaking 11 Billboard Awards. It was a stellar night for a wonderful lady, and capped off a terrific year, her Bodyguard movie and soundtrack broke records EVERYWHERE, it was a phenomenal global success. I will NEVER forget Whitney Houston - EVER!
OMG she sang the hell out of that song. She was soooooo good! We miss her!
