Having lent her award-winning vocal chops to tributes to the likes of Mariah Carey, Michael Jackson, Prince, Aretha Franklin, and many other music icons over the years, Tori Kelly knows a thing or two how to salute a legend.

In case there are some who have forgotten, however, the 2-time GRAMMY winner was one of many big names who took to the Hollywood Bowl on Sunday (November 3) to toast the musical genius of 16-time GRAMMY-winning composer and producer extraordinaire David Foster as he celebrated his 75th birthday.

And despite assembling a lineup of titans like Michael Buble, Brian McKnight, Andrea Bocelli, Josh Groban, El Debarge, and more, it was Kelly who brought the house down when she took on Whitney Houston‘s iconic hit ‘I Have Nothing’ (written and produced by Foster for 1992’s ‘The Bodyguard‘ soundtrack).
