Lifetime’s hit reality series ‘The Houstons:  On Our Own’ has earned mixed reviews from viewers as it chronicles the lives of late pop icon Whitney Houston‘s family just months after her untimely passing.

Its star, Houston’s 19-year-old daughter Bobbi Kristina, is not only using the show as a peek into her private life, but also as a vehicle to jumpstart her long sought after music career.

Indeed, while Whitney’s pride-and-joy officially unveiled her desire to be like her multi-octave mom via a Youtube video (covering Adele’s ‘Someone Like You’) some time ago, now she’s taking on one of her mother’s most beloved hits.

Despite shifting a cool 2 million copies worldwide in less than a space of the year, it’s safe to say that Beyonce‘s ‘4‘ didn’t quite spawn the promo campaign much of the singer’s fan base had been hoping for.

Now, with the release of her fifth studio album drawing nearer, it seems ‘King Bey’ is readying a media assault in its aid that- if we’re being completely honest- may render many a chart rival both irrelevant…and unemployed.
