(Actress Halle Berry At the ‘We Will Always Love You: Whitney Houston Tribute event in Los Angeles)
The stars joined to celebrate the life of the late, great Whitney Houston is a moving, Grammy-sponsored tribute last night.
As reported here, the Los Angeles hosted event boasted the vocals of Jennifer Hudson, Cece Winans, Usher, and Celine Dion (amongst others) as those tapped to lift their voices in memory of the ‘I Will Always Love You’ songstress.
Set for air on CBS November 13th, get into these snaps below from last night’s event (especially Jennifer Hudson channeling Houston circa 1988 Freedom Fest gear):
As previously reported, actress Halle Berry, rapper LL Cool J, and “singer” Britney Spears also acted as hosts for the event. (source)

Why does Jennifer Hudson look like Brandy did at the Whitney Tribute during the BET Awards this year? O_o
I was there last night was amazing, grape juice email me for pictures if u want celine was not at the show they just showed a old video of her performing a Whitney song
Tears* I Love you Whitney
Beautiful. I cannot wait to watch this when it hits television. RIP Whitney Houston. Only the best for you. xxxx
Dear God,
I was wondering if we could have Whitney and Michael back in exchange for Justin Bieber and Rebecca Black. Surely you understand.
Thanks,
MC
I’m sorry, but KII
I was hoping that I will see there Alexandra Burke singing Saving My Love For you! -_-
Whitney & Britney to legends xoxo>>>>
Britney stunnig! Stay pressed, whitches. 🙂
BRITNEY MY QUEEN SLAYS THE SHOW <3
Really? So Celine wasn´t performing and not even there? What a letdown
And Jennifer Hudson doing Whitney again and again. It seems they try hard to make her seem like that type of huge and timeless artist, and she is not. Anyway, I hope her imitation of that concert at Wembley is cute. We´ll see
RIP legendary Whitney Houston. Hope the show is good
I was hyped for the bet tribute to nippy but for some reason I guess its due to the performers on the line up im just not that intereste in this cbs special and i am a huge whitney fan. we already saw j hud tribute whitney at the grammys, usher was great for a michael jackson tribute but not whitney, yolanda already tributed whitney at the naacp image awards and did a great job. and cece sang at her funeral which was also televised. All these artist that are in the world who have been affected by ms nippy this is all that could muster? you might as weel just was these artist tribute whitney on youtube if you missed their tributes already. typical boring cbs so sad nip deserves better than that.
PREACH!!
This is about media manipulation and the promotion of certain artists who are either CURRENTLY ON TV e.g. Brtiney Spears, or those who arre making a COMEBACK SOON like Celine Dion! It’s not about getting the best or those more closely impacted by the DIVAS musical legacy!
I agree with both comments.

f*** CRACKANNA!!!
Hallie Berry is looking fierce! 🙂
I will watch to see what they have put together to honor the LEGEND….THE VOICE……THE FIERCE DIVA…..WHITNEY HOUSTON! I am just displeased with the ppl they selected to tribute her. Where are: BRANDY, MONICA, FANTASIA, BEYONCE etc?
I was there last night and let me tell you Cece Winans and Yolanda brought ChuuCh to the the Nokia, especially CeCe my god what a gift. I was excited for J. Hud and am a fan but honestly Brandy’s BET tribute SLAYED and I wish she or Monica would have been there. Usher did good too. I loved watching all the performances on the screen it was like a big youtube feast!! lol.. All in all there like 3 performances and Celine did now show…. I had an amazing time and my lord CeCe Winans I cannot get over..
yes ma’am.. you have me so excited.. I LOVE CeCe Winans.. really, when you listen to “Count On Me” it’s crazy how much she and Whitney sound alike at times.. They both possessed so much POWER and conviction.
I also would have liked to see Brandy/Monica there.. I stan for Bran, but I would have just taken a monica performance.. she GOES on Whitney songs.
Alright, some great vocalists there but no Brandy and no Monica means i am not watching….
They all look amazing except Usher. Where’s Celine Dion? Britney looks sensational
Seriously I’m tired of seeing Jennifer Hudson in every Whitney’s tributes and acts… Whitney was one of her inspirations like many but that’s it. She doesn’t look like her, she doesn’t sound like her!
What about friends, collaborators and people she worked with like Faith Evans, Kelly Price, Deborah C**, Monica, Brandy, TLC, Chaka Khan…?
Yea, this is a total disregard of her friends, just for ratings.
WOW Britney Spears looks TOop Notch she looks the best!!! Get iT mami…..
Jennifer Hudson?! Ugh…she does a bad rendition of Whitney’s music! The way MONICA KILLED AT THE BET TRIBUTE….I can’t believe it….Monica set the stage afire for all that followed. I’m not watching
THey use JENNIFER for every tribute. she can sing and all that but there are other POWERHOUSE VOCALISTS that have known WHITNEY FOR YEAAAARSS Before anyone knew Jennifer. Jennofer is NEW!!! Artists like BRandy amd MOnica been around for ALMOST 20 YEars,, OTHER POWERHOUSE VOCALISTS LIKE DEBORAH C**, KELLY PRICE AND FAITH EVANS KNEW WHITNEY AND THEYWORKED WITH WHITNEY AND THEY BEEN ROUND WAAAAY BEFORE JENNIFER!! ITS THE SAME BORRING PEOPLE ALL THE TIME! THIS LOOKS LIKE A POPULARITY CONTEST TO ME NOT A SINCERE TRIBUTE!! THE BET AWARDS TRIBUTE WAS A TOUCHING, SINCERE, EMOTIONAL TRIBUTE!! THE BET AWARDS IS THE BEST WHITNEY TRIBUTE EVER!!! AND CANNOT BE TOPPED!! IT WAS REAL AND SINCERE!! P.S. BRITNEY SPEARS????? LMAAAAAO. I CAN’T
i agreed this is just a showcase for entertainers they are trying to promote. This has nothing to do with Whitney.White people still disrespecting Whitney. They disrespected her when they had a party while her dead body lay upstairs and now they are still disrespecting her for promotions and ratings. Ask yourself, do you think they would have allowed that party to go on if Cher or Celine Dion or even Brittney Spears dead bodies were lying upstairs. Also, how dare Jennifer Hudson copy off Brandy in tribute to Whitney. All other tribute before Brandy’s , the singers singed Whitney’s slow songs,including Jennifer Hudson. Now since Brandy has done an upbeat song by Whitney now Jennifer H. thinks she can do it too.
