The loss of Whitney Houston last month is one the music world is healing from slowly, yet surely. However, “regrouping” is a process that’s proving difficult for the late superstar’s family.
Nonetheless, the Houston clan have allowed Oprah Winfrey to interview them about how they’re coping after the singer’s sudden death.
Set to air on the mogul’s OWN network this Sunday, another preview of the emotionally charged chat on ‘Oprah’s Next Chapter’ has been released.
The clip features the songbird’s sister-in-law and closest friend, Patricia Houston, relay her fears for the singer in her final days.
Video awaits below…
Needless to say, we’ll be watching.
Is it too soon? I’d say so. Indeed, that and O’s uncanny ability to “swoop in” under such circumstances (shudders at memory of her having tea with the Jacksons after making more than a few unsavory comments about Michael in his latter days), brings about a certain unease in me
However, any true journalist knows to dig for the answers the world wants. And with Whitney’s career touching so many, naturally there’s heightened interest in how the family are doing. I just wish the interview wasn’t on the back of less than stellar ratings for a network that was almost certainly destined to fly (and hasn’t…yet). More than anything, I’d have preferred the interview was with Whitney herself, plugging a new project, new film, new something. Sigh.
Your thoughts?

Oprah ALWAYS supported Whitney though. So I’m happy the interview is with her, however I do think they should have at least waited 6 months.

Doesn’t f****** work! TAKE IT OFF. MAKES NO SENSE!
I cant see the video…
it does seem a little soon…
But I can see how the Whitney family would talk to Oprah. She always seems genuine and she supported whit.
Either way, I will be tuning in

Oprah & Whitney were very close. Oprah was the only journalist that treated Whitney with the respect that she so deserved. All of the other journalist and media outlets included you ( TGJ ) have printed nothing but scandalous rumors about Whitney & her daughter, Bobbi Kristi just to sell a magazine. All of a sudden the media outlets are saying its “too soon” for Oprah to interview her family members. If Whitney’s family felt it was too soon, they would not have given Oprah the interview. (IT IS THEIR DECISION). Was it too soon when all of the media outlets said that Bobbi Kristie was doing drugs right after Whitney’s funeral. Even if Bobbi Kristi was we should be praying for this beautiful young lady instead of spreading rumors to sell magazines. all of you journalist & media outlets are just jealous because Oprah scored the INTERVIEW OF THE YEAR!
Sam shut the f*** up. You spread just as many lies and hate as any other media outlet. And when did Oprah ever say anything about Michael? When? You’re nothing but a hypocrite.
@speechless, i watched oprah a lot and it was very clear how she felt about Michael.
