Following her headline grabbing performance on the UK version of the X-Factor, diva Whitney Houston made a special appearance tonight on the Italian incarnation of the show to perform ‘Million Dollar Bill’.
Having watched this one live, I was the edge of my seat as I am with all Whitney performances these days (for a number of reasons) -but oh did Whitney deliver! Hands-down the best performance of the song to date, and arguably one of Whitney’s best performances since embarking on her comeback. Really a testament to the fact that ‘The Voice Is Back’. Great, vocals, great energy, great performance!
What do you think of the performance?

Loved it! It seems that with every performance, her vocals are improving and getting stronger. She is very, very beautiful and ALL live vocals.
Her energy again was off the chain. That’s what I love about her, she will always try to give it her all. TheItalian guy was a trip, he actually got on his knees to kiss her.
Whitney, bring this back to the states now and go on Letterman/Leno with this.
Excellent!!!

i love whitney tackling the harder songs to sing on her album, I know when she gets to perform some of her other material from this new album it will be a piece of cake.

I’m very happy about this performance. I think Whitney always had the ability to still sing reminiscent of her hey-day but I think it was her desire that was lacking. But Ms. Queen-of-the-night is definitely stepping up her game. Long live W.H.!

Give it to them haters Whitney, they want it give it to them… Love you Whitney and I love the new CD, release “Salute” Please and “Worth it” and number 8, 10,5,7,4, Heavens the whole album is banging. I want you to release every song as singles with videos. I am going to go buy another copy for my car and for my Mommy.
Love you so much Whitney, welcome back!

I just can’t imagine anyone ever being able to sing better than Whitney, just as I can’t fathom anyone ever outperforming MJ. I just feel like I have witnessed the very best there ever was and ever will be.

anybody else notice that whitney and mariah seem to have problems pronouncing word when they sing now? Great performance for Whitney tho. She got stronger as the song progressed.

I love it!!!! Mariah should be ashamed of herself for lipsynching. Whitney is still the greatest vocalist in the world. No one could ever touch those high notes. Wonderful!!!
