Another Whitney Houston Concert Debacle In The UK
Whitney sings…and somewhere in the world a mirror just shattered…..
Whitney Houston’s humiliating “Tour of Shame” continues its disastrous trek across the UK. Fans walked out of the diva’s concert at London’s O2 arena last night after her poor performance terrorized their eardrums with a mirage of bad notes.
The singer’s “Nothing But Love Tour” has been besieged with problems since Houston arrived in Europe a few weeks ago. Whitney was earlier forced to cancel a concert in Paris and reschedule three shows in the UK, after she was hospitalised in the French capital with an upper respiratory infection. Finally, on Sunday night, she admitted her voice was failing as she stood unable to hit the high notes that made her a singing icon and abandoned her song ‘The Greatest Love of All’ halfway through.
After a shaky rendition of her most famous song “I Will Always Love You,” Whitney said of her voice: “She don’t want to come, my soprano friend Sometimes the old girl sings, but not tonight. I want to do it, but she doesn’t want to. She’s getting a little – temperamental, even.”
Critics were less kind. Whit was referred to as “bloated, bedraggled and out of tune” by Daily Mail reviewer Georgina Littlejohn.
“Once again the voice that had left her contemporaries reeling in its wake, was a former shadow of what it used to be,” Littlejohn wrote.
The review continued: “She struggled further with another of her classic songs, this time cutting short “Greatest Love Of All,” only managing to pull of a couple of verses…..And during much of the set she paused and panted for breath between songs while her backing singers did a great job of carrying her with their melodies….Her outfit also left a bit to be desired. She came on stage in tight leather trousers, a sequinned jacket that struggled to fasten at her middle and a bloated face…..Whitney did manage to stay on stage for the majority of the two-hour gig, her first of three at the Docklands venue. But fans were still unhappy, with some even demanding their money back.”

Illness Postpones Whitney Houston European Tour
Illness has briefly delayed Whitney Houston’s European tour.
The diva had been due to kick off the UK leg of her “Nothing But Love Tour” in Paris on Tuesday night, but an upper respiratory infection (likely caused by the star’s persistent smoking) is forcing Houston to bow out of that show on doctors’ orders.
The tour will instead get underway Thursday, April 8 in Manchester.
