Brandy & Monica Mourn Whitney Houston At Clive Davis Pre-Grammy Gala

Published: Sunday 12th Feb 2012 by Sam

To the world she was an icon, but to them she was a friend.

Whitney Houston‘s sudden death last night has left many stunned, most especially R&B stars Brandy and Monica.

The pair, who were being coached by the late singer for their planned performance at Clive Davis’ Pre-Grammy Gala, instead sat in clear disbelief at the solemn event.

Over the years, Houston took on a mentor role for both ladies. Indeed, she maintained a close bond with Brandy, while helping Monica through the suicide of her boyfriend and in other trying times. The singers will no doubt be leaning on each other during this trying time.

Your thoughts?

    @Brandy & Monica, i know it is hard because it’s hard for People who
    are not in the Industry but try with all your Might to hang in there. We don’t
    understant this and we no doubt never will understand why some one so Full
    of Love, Hope and great Out look on Her Come Back would Leave all of us so soon.
    It Hurts and it hurt Bad, but through it all we have to Lean on the Almighty for strength and the courage we need to carry on. Right now it is like a opening wound and it is going to take a very long time to get a grip on what has happen to our BELOVED WHITNEY OUR PRAYERS ARE WITH HER BELOVED FAMILY!

    @GAGA Army…….that is so disrespectful and mean spirited, I believe in karma and what you do will in some way come back to you.

    Can’t fathom it. Seeing her 2 days before STILL WITHOUT WORDS!!! COMPLETELY DISTRAUGHT!

    Brandy just looks devastated! Every pic I have seen just shows ppl with blank stares on their faces. I know the only topic at that party was Whitney.

    To all these people who have been disrespectful about death are out of order. Death is death, is death and regardless of the cause or if you like the person or know death affects people near and far its not nice or a subject to be joked about.
    Hopefully these people will not have to face the experience or experience someone being disrespectful about their loved one.

    Brandy and Monica wore black and looked spooked to be in the same building as the body of the legend herself. How can you pay tribute to or celebrate the life of someone whos remains are still yet to be covered of the stated the passed in? I question the thought process of anyone who did not stay home, show up in there second choice (black dress) and refrain from partying and doing the over the pose let alone walk the carpet.

    Kelly that Blue number was very Donna but you could have taken that extra carpet posing time to change, skip the carpet and go console your ex BFF and birthday buddy on a great loss.

    Lady Gaga could never. stfu and show respect.

  12. LouLou February 12, 2012

    It was also Brandy’s birthday yesterday. You know she is really feeling it.

  13. SAYINSOMETHIN-NICE February 12, 2012

    Brandy and Monica need to Tribute Whitney Tonite!!!

  14. @antertain February 12, 2012

    I really hope they tribute Whitney together.
    They gotta take the opportunities to sing for her as they on a uprise with a new song and really should be performing at the main grammys.

    Those two really look uo to Whit

    Keep her legacy alive ladies

  15. credits February 12, 2012

    Yea, i think they should sing for her…..especially monica.

  16. SAYINSOMETHIN-NICE February 12, 2012

    They could both cover one of her songs tonite.. Whitney would have loved that!!

  17. Miss Shade February 12, 2012

    I normally shade Brandy, but this time I will keep it cordial. If the Grammys don’t let Brandy and Monica in on tonight’s tribute, I will read those f*** under a bus. See, and they said I don’t have class..

    Monica.. Love you sis.

  18. yesthatsright February 12, 2012

    Wow this is still hard to believe! I use to be the hugest brandy fan and whitney being her idol made her mine as well…ghee..praying for her soul and her family and friends. She had a voice that is unexplainable!

  19. JP February 12, 2012

    Whitney is truly a legend and will always be the true pop diva.

    Luv you Brandy and Mo! Hope the ladies tribute tonight.

  20. Dallas February 13, 2012

    I normally don’t care for brandy either (mainly cuz her fans do waaaaaay too much, o_O for some unknown reason) but I felt helllla bad for brandy, especially for the fact that whit died on her bday!!! That’s crrrazy! I felt bad for mo also cuz whit was mo’s biggest inspiration in music u can tell thru mos performances that she really studied whit… But i feel worst for bobbi Kristina!! I have to keep her in my prayers, I couldn’t even begin to imagine what she’s goin thru. I pray the lord gives her strength

  21. YOOSONDALOOSE February 13, 2012

    Monica looks really lovely, and Brandy looks nice as well.

  22. Kris Davis February 13, 2012

  23. love February 14, 2012

    My heart goes out to Brandy and Monica..If anyone has been following Brandy and Mo, they would know they adored Whitney. I remember Brandy would always credit Whitney as being her inspiration & idol all the time..Monica too she would always tribute whitney with songs, i remember monica performing at the sou train awards in the 90’s giving that tribute to her…also on monica’s last tour she performed ”I Have Nothing” ..God bless Whitney’s family, friends, fans and peers in the industry.
