WENDY WILLIAMS BREAKS DOWN SOBBING REMEMBERING WHITNEY HOUSTON [VIDEO]


This morning talk show host Wendy Williams began her show by remembering "The Voice," the legendary singer Whitney Houston, who passed away unexpectedly this past Saturday (Feb. 11) in Los Angeles, California.


As Wendy began to detail how she first came to know Houston and how her arrival into the music industry influenced not only her peers, but a generation of black woman and young girls across the world, the outspoken talk show host began to openly sob.


Many of you are aware of the infamous Whitney-Wendy interview that took place live on-air back in 2003, where many me say that Whitney READ Wendy her life...like no one had ever done before. 


Some me may even feel that although at one point Wendy had the top rated radio show in the No. 1 market (New York), it was the infamous Whitney interview that put Wendy on the map nationally and arguably placed her in the spotlight --which later afforded her the position that she is in today, in having one of the top rated national talk shows on network television --well into her 3rd season.


One thing I will say is that although Wendy was critical of Whitney in 2003 and more recently after Whitney's 2-part interview on the Oprah Winfrey Show back in 2009, I know that it came from a place of great love.


Wendy is a Cancer like myself and we're known to be straight shooters, who have a strong aversion to being politically correctness and/or sugar coating serious situations. Wendy was extremely vocal about Whitney's problems because she not only cared a great deal for her well-being and wanted to see Whitney back on top like we all did, but Wendy who also had a long battle with drugs abuse (cocaine) and saw herself in Whitney and just wanted her to wholeheartedly acknowledge her problem and take the most effective steps to remedying the issue.


As someone who not only idolized and emulated Whitney growing up, I'm still devastated and truly hurt by her passing. So much so, I still haven't been able to bring myself to blog an official post on Whitney's passing because to do so would mean I would have to face the true and hard fact that Whitney is gone and will not be coming back...ever! 


And I'm still not ready to face that reality as crazy as that may sound...


Anyway, check out Wendy's tearful video after the break!
