^I got an email about the documentary. I'm cautiously optimistic. Same! Actually something to finally be excited about. Looking forward to new stories and rare, never before seen footage. I truly hope it leaves a positive mark on her legacy and leaves the viewer with a new found appreciation of her amazing talent.

I'm excited. It sounds like the team behind this is respectable and credible.

I'm still salty that we never got the Anniversary editions of Whitney or The Bodyguard Soundtrack. I was really hoping the UK mix of So Emotional would be on there. Love that version!

I was just thinking about this this week for the exact same reason of the UK Version of "So Emotional". I LOVE that version.

Pat Houston is one of the shadiest of all time! thatgrapejuice.net/2016/05/whitney-houston-hologram-tour-world-2017/They're just lining their own pockets at this point. Bobbi Kristina is gone so they don't have the responsibility of securing her financial future. Personally, I think the whole thing is wrong and tarnishes Whitney's legacy.

We already know they're using Christina and The Voice to launch this tour.

I don't understand why people would purchase a concert ticket to watch a hologram.

I would not be interested in seeing that. A hologram tour seems very weird. Something like a Vegas cirque soleil show would have made more sense.

You can see an LQ view of some snips of the finale performance from The Voice:
The family was reportedly in the audience but nobody has said who exactly. I'm praying for Cissy to be there and not just Pat's vulturing ass.

I'm a huge Whitney fan and I'm excited in one way and in another I'm not. It looks kind of goofy in that LQ clip. I don't think the movements were all that great. I am happy because it is bringing Whitney's name back out there in a good way. Even if people don't like it. They only do stuff like this for huge artists. This is showing what a force in music that she was.

I want to see younger generations appreciate Whitney's greatness too but I also want her to rest in peace. Let's hold on to what she left us but not tarnish her image with this cheap gimmicky shit. Just so Pat can make a coin.

I never thought I'd ever say this, but I actually respect Pat's decision. It wasn't right. At all.
(Other than Christina's vocals, which were great).
I hated the way they had Christina introduce Whitney like she was there.

Pat and Gary were both in attendance and they were even shown at the end... take what the "estate" says for its worth.

They were dead wrong dragging Christina into this. She did her part and they didn't do theirs. Hopefully Christina can still tribute Whitney as a solo performance.

Pat cancelled the hologram performance. Pat really needs to stop. Pat would not approve of Whitney herself singing up there with Christina if she were still with us.

Bullshit. Christina already did a proper tribute to Whitney back in 2001 so stop.

Thanks for the receipts BMAC. You always come though. To add to the point Whitney handpicked Christina to tribute. Whitney spoke highly of Queen up until her death.

Holograms are just creepy and morbid and this one doesn't even look anything like Whitney. They never should've approved it in the first place. For what its worth, Christina sounded great.

Thank God they pulled that. It looked nothing like Whitney. I had no idea how they generated these holograms. I thought they used actual footage of the person. Is it all like CGI? At any rate, Yaya DeCosta looked more like Whitney than this did.

Can we just leave dead people alone? I really hope this is the end of this hologram business. There is absolutely nothing charming about reviving people. Just do a proper tribute with some pretty pictures and/or a video montage if you wanna honor them.
