Singer Whitney Houston Dies Aged 48

Whitney Houston

American singer and actress Whitney Houston has died at a Hotel in Los Angeles.

 
 Police reports say that she died in her room at the Beverly Hilton Hotel, where she had been staying as a guest. While the cause of death is unclear, there were “no obvious signs of criminal intent”.

 

 

 

An autopsy is likely to be held within the next two days. However, if drugs or alcohol are involved, it will take between six and eight weeks for toxicology tests to be completed.

 

Whitney had over 170 million albums, singles and video sales worldwide. A list of awards including 2 Emmy Awards, 6 Grammy Awards, 30 Billboard Music Awards and 22 American Music Awards. Some of her well known music included ‘I Will Always Love You’, ‘I Wanna Dance with Somebody’ and more recently from 2009 ‘Million Dollar Bill’.
