With Kelly Rowland‘s “stock” higher than ever, the Destiny’s Child alum continues to up her diva with a series of high profile performances. The latest, at the 16th Annual Power of Love Gala, saw the 31 year old take to the stage with the legendary Stevie Wonder to perform Whitney Houston‘s ‘Greatest Love Of All’.

Oh no she didn’t! I love me some Kelly, but its too soon for singers of her abilities to be trying to do Whitney. Ashanti couldn’t do Whitney, Jennifer couldn’t do Whitney and neither could Monica. The only one who has managed to do any Whitney songs justice recently is Amber Reilly (Glee)
I don’t mean to be bitter or hateful, give me some time to get over it, but until then artists need to find some comfortable seats and sit for a while.
First, I love her!!
um dev …really – kelly has been reppin ms houston since the age of 4 – if she wants to give a tribute then let her…..its HER IDOL WHO DIED ON HER BDAY…i mean damn what more do you want – besides she was asked to do so with STEVIE WONDER – who in their right minds would turn that down – besides the show must go on and ms kelly has plenty of hurdles in front of her
BACK TO MS KELLY – SHE IS FUKKIN BEAUTIFUL – SO DIVA I LOVE IT – LOOKING LIKE THE INTERNATIONAL STAR THAT SHE IS – SHE BETTER LET THESE LESSORS KNOW WHO THE HELL SHE IS – work mama!
@LYRIC COMMANDER LEE
I don’t have time for thirsty stans like yourself, i said my piece that wasn’t directed only at Ms Rowland. I’m not here to hear about dates of birth, idols or anything else you have to offer. Still thirsty? go drink her bath or toilet water, but until you can get past security to do that go find one of those comfortable seats i was talking about, failing that, retreat to your bus shelter.
S/O to DLV…what a shallow comment you wrote there. How can you compare a live and almost on the spot version of Whitney’s song done by Jennifer and a recorded glee version. Pls if you ain’t got nothing sensible to say,skip commenting….and btw what talent search do you run to be able to decide who has talent and who doesn’t?
@ DEV, I’m glade its just your opinion and It hold NO weight! I agree about.Kelly,Ashanti’, Keri, Ciara or singers of there caliber shouldn’t tribute Whitney, but Monica kills Whitney music, you might wanna check the blogs boo and Don’t you ever put Monica in a category with Sub Par b******
I’m with you LMAO! DEV has plenty, but screw.her! We don’t have to attend every argument we’re invited to. Let’s not waist anymore time on negative Nancy aka DEV…I’ve gotta ready for church
I’m sorry but anybody shoulb be able to tribute their idol how dare you say they shouldn’t what gives you the right to be that hateful and anyway Kelly is no b**** for one and she is definitely not sub par so get it straight and in any case she did “Endless Love” with Lionel Richie and it was beautiful even though that was not whitney houston’s song whitney also sung it too and that was amazing so please don’t speak at all
@ AUBREY BEYINCE HARPER I dare to say what i want! those examples you gave me don’t count. Endless Love was originally a Diana Ross song, then covered by Mariah who is a better singer than Diana. i have never heard Whitneys version, but as she is a better singer i’ll guess its good also. Oh, where did i call Kelly b****?… fool!
@TWHIST What church are you getting ready to go to after your comments? The church of hand signs, singer worshipping and lights? you need to take your hypocritical self else where, talkin’ bout religion and going on like that, and in your reference to Monica, I like Monica but am yet to hear het do “good” Whitney, so before you pick up your bible (cough, cough) and leave send me a link to change my view or prove me wrong.
@LMAO Okay, i compare what i want. i didn’t think Jennifer was all that great and there are many people who agree. Now, the pre recorded glee version doesn’t mean that because it was pre recorded that it wasn’t any good… and the fact that it was on glee holds no weight either.
Anything else, anyone else?
Kelly looks so beautiful in pick its definitely her signature color…
I agree with Dev. People lilke Kelly Rowland, Ashanti and several others need to leave Whitney’s songs out of their mouths while doing these live performances.
Kelly has been looking absolutely stunning lately. She found her imagine and big haird works for her. Now on to the tribute with Stevie Wonder, Kelly would never turn down the chance to sing with a legend such as Stevie Wonder. And lately her vocals have been on point i don’t know if she’s just been practicing with a vocal coach or just found her confidence on stage now. But the girl has pipes she may not be able to deliver as much power to the song like Whitney but that’s why it’s called a tribute and not a emulation of an artist. she sounded very good singing for The Legeandery Mariah Carey so I’m sure she will put her all into this for her idol Whitney Houston 🙂
She looks terrible, love Kelly. But no.
What the hell do you look like? o_O
Anyways, Kelly is a singer and what do singers do? They sing. She can sing whatever f*cking song she wants.
You nobodies on blogs do entirely too much.
HATERS FALL BACK #ALWAYSWINNING #TEAMKELLY
MS KELLY LOOKS STUNNING !!!!
GO !GO GO !!!
She is stunnin’ ’em these days!! Werk!
LOVE HER!
her stock just went up over 2million -YASS
on a serious note though, Kelly is doing all these photo-ops now ignoring her album and the new video she put out a few weeks ago. is it safe to say the here i am era is over? soon she’ll move on to the 4th era, make a few appearances and then return to recluse.at least this time, nobody’s gonna blame Matthew
and why is her agreement to perform even an issue? jsut because some jerk behind a pc thinks noone should sing Whitney’s songs, all of the music industry now have to justify themselves? hell no, if he/she was a somebody then they wont be reduced to airing their opinions on blogs. lmao people need to sometimes examine their position, u dont get to tell anyone what to sing and not sing oh and lastly u dont own Whitney or rights to her songs. Whitney was as much a part of these folks’ lives as she was anyone else or even more since she knew who they were. does she know u?
SHE LOOKS SO PRETTY AS ALWAYS 🙂
I love Kelly. She has every right to pay tribute to her idol. She did well at the BET honours for that Mariah Carey song, so l am sure she will just be fine doing a Whitney song as well. Go Kelly.
@ GRAMMY DAMMY SAMMY Does she know you? Why do you think that you’re less of a jerk to be making an opinion than the others on the blog who have? Are you her P.A? Because you seem to be talking as if you’re better than everyone else.
Whitney may not own the rights to her songs, but she owns the delivery and voice that made them famous and sell millions.
fabulous!! i love this woman. #TEAMKELLY
@JACK
Jack you’re jacked up in the head cus i wasnt saying anything against the legendary Whitney nor Kelly. my comment was directed @Dev and my point was that he doesnt own Whitney or her songs so he doesnt get to tell anyone not to sing it and him posting it on blogs holds no tangible weight. the most he can (should) do is give his opinion on the performance, get it now?
i dint make an opinion of him on a personal level, i rebutted to his comment, how exactly am i acting like im better than everyone else? this is not the first time i’ve been accused of that on blogs, i dunno where yallget it from. im just sharing my 2cents like everybody else
damn kelly is like wine..she get better overtime..this woman is drop dead gorgeous!!
Are you people serious??? Of course Monica or Jennifer Hudson are not Whitney Houston. Please. Not to mention the other ones. I think you need to check more youtube or at least your ears
But every one has the right to sing those songs. They are just making tributes to her, which is great, now that it doesn´t hurt so bad as the first day we all knew about Queen Whitney dying
I mean, kelly is actually a very good vocalist with shaky live performances.. Let’s wait to see what she gave before giving her a lashing girls!
I remember when i was a DC stan, I would watch all of their shows over and over and I remember Kelly “I’m Your Baby Tonight” to Beyonce and how impressed she was. Whitney Houston will live on. Until some of you roaches make it big, we’ll have to deal with tributes from those who are already in the industry
Love kellllllly!!! She’s looking HOT!!! as always!
I’M REALLY GETTIN TIRED OF HEARING ALL THESE SUPPOSED “WHITNEY TRIBUTES” WHEN ALL THEY REALLY ARE – ARE ‘HOW CAN I GET MY NEW ALBUM TO SELL MORE COPIES’!!! THAT GOES FOR KELLY, MONICA, BRANDY AND ASHANTI! STOP RIDING WHITNEY’S COATTAILS BY YOUR TRIBUTES OR SHOWING UP SOMEWHERE SINGING HER MUSIC! JUST STOP IT. AFTER KELLY, MONICA AND BRANDY BASICALLY DANCED ON WHITNEY’S GRAVE BY ATTENDING CLIVE’S PARTY WITH WHITNEY’S BODY STILL UPSTAIRS – I’LL BE DAMNED IF I SPENT ONE CENT ON ANY OF THEIR MUSIC. THEY ALL LOST MY RESPECT AFTER THAT. NOW THEY WANT TO SING HER SONGS A TRIBUTE? YOU SHOULD HAVE SHOWN WHITNEY MORE RESPECT THE DAY SHE DIED. SING YOUR OWN DAMN MUSIC – LET WHITNEY REST IN PEACE INSTEAD HER POSTUMOUSLY MAKING MONEY FOR YOU B*TCHES! THE ONE PERSON WHO HONESTLY DID A TRIBUTE WAS JENNIFER HUDSON!!! SHE WASNT’ TRYING TO SELL HER OWN DAMN ALBUM. THAT WAS INDEED A TRIBUTE! THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER VOICE LIKE HERS – EVER!
I JUST CANT GET ENOUGH OF MY MS KELLY…………. SHE SURE IS KEEPING THE HATERS BUSY LATELY….. WERKKKKKKKKKK CHICA…. LOVE YOU AND WOULD LIKE TO BE JUST LIKE YOU ONE DAY. @KellyRow_Go
