Whitney Houston was a surprise guest on BET's annual "Celebration Of Gospel" event which aired Sunday. The "I Will Always Love You" singer joined her friend, Christian vocalist Kim Burrell on stage for a moving inspirational rendition of Houston's "I Look To You," the title track from her 2009 come back album.

Burrell opened the song alone before Houston accompanied her on the stage. It was a risky move for Houston to sing a duet with one of the genre's strongest voices.

Houston's live performances over the last year for Good Morning America, the Oprah Winfrey Show, and her "Nothing But Love" world tour were all criticized for her disappointing vocals. Her years of drug abuse had apparently ruined her voice beyond repair.
But Houston wowed the "Celebration Of Gospel" audience with a remarkable performance. She connected with the song's R. Kelly-penned lyrics that pay homage to a trusted support system. But her voice sounded much stronger than it has recently.
Houston didn't sing any bad notes during this set taped in December in Los Angeles. She nicely handled some signature rifts, even dipping into a crisp falsetto. She didn't sound as strong as she did in the '80s and '90s, but she was great, considering her pitfalls.
Maybe this is a sign that she should record a gospel album next.
An encore of "Celebration Of Gospel" airs Thursday, February 3 at 8 p.m. eastern/7 p.m. central.

teflondawn

I'm proud of you too. I always try and use it but it's never happened for me yet. It'll be a glorious day.

as you should be.

i was honestly surprised this was not the first comment.

Came in for this.

Can't hear or see shit.

dat formatting ..

ilu tho

I was at a really horrible bowling alley with some friends last week, and they had a jukebox there that had songs from like...1987 and back only.

So I trolled the place the whole night and kept putting on "I Will Always Love You" back to back to back. I enjoyed everyone getting pissed off after only the 2nd time hearing it.

bb you gotta use the old youtube codes.

love you and your Taeyang gifs, OP.

gurl nothing has embedded

yea . . . better than her 2009 performances, but still not great. she lost her voice. it is sad, but it is true.

tina turner can still outsing the fuck out of most people and she is like 94.

71. It will be a sad day when Tina or Patti stop singing.

ok i watched it and she still sounds hoarse. and i love when gospel singers start adlibbing at the end of songs like they can pretty much say anything. i'd be like "i want some tuna saaaandwich" or some shit like that

AND IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEYIIIIIII will always love bb whitney<3333:*-)

Ugh BET sucks at embedding. 8 minutes in

Kim seems to be doing the heavy lifting though.

YASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS.

KIM BURRELL >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> YOUR FAVES.

LOVE Kim Burells voice! She is a legend in the making, I'm so sure of it.

girl is over, bye

gurl, I like Christina but she will never do anything half as good as the shit Whitney's done.

Damn. It's just sad what's happened to her voice. :(

No matter who your favs are, they couldn't touch Whitney and Mimi in the 90s.

Hell to the no

iawtc. those two were impeccable

what's a chaster?

are these people chaste or something?

Chaster = fan of Charice

Charice= wannabe Whitney/Mariah/Aretha

lol Charice can eat shit.

so this is going to be her second attempt at a comeback?

good luck...

That was better than some of her recent performances.

I feel like she makes it worse with the hand movements...like you see her arm waving around and expect some enormous note to come out of her since she's working so hard, and then it's just a normal note...
