I want to reveal a woman that even her most die-hard fans never knew; and a woman those new to her life and music will never forget.

She changed the way pop music was sung – bringing it back full circle to its blues and gospel roots.

Although we won’t shy away from the darker parts of Whitney’s life – her descent into addiction – I want audiences to walk out of the cinema and feel positive about Whitney and her music.

While Empire is told from the point of view of music executives, Star will be told from the perspective of the artist. Benjamin Bratt and Queen Latifah headline the series, which gives Fox a potential companion for ratings juggernaut Empire after the network previously attempted a reboot of Urban Cowboy to fill that slot. Lenny Kravitz guest stars.

    Just leave Whitney, Michael, Prince and other musical legends alone. Its like Jimi Hendrix once said “Your worthy more dead than alive. ” muthfuckas already talking about a bio about Prince ! Purple Rain alone is the ONLY movie ya need. Man hasn’t been dead no more than this day of last week !! And its crazy how they have no remorse invading their privacy. They’ll disguise their greed as showing love but where was everyone when Prince was release those two last albums ? I had my copies from 14 and 15 along with iTunes receipts.

    • セーラーV April 28, 2016

      Hell, I’m gay and am not a fan of him

    A documentary of that type might actually be good, just like Amy was last year. So praised, successful and award-worthy. Unlike the bland and sensationalist little films they do from time to time.
    RIP Whitney aka True Legend-Once in a lifetime singer-Very few in a century.
