Whitney Houston does short Central Park set
Whitney Houston took the stage for a short four song set in Central Park today.
Houston was taping the performance for tomorrow’s Good Morning America. Fans queued for one of 2,000 seats, and seemed to be pleased even though Houston reportedly avoided high notes and blamed a cracking voice on an Oprah interview yesterday.
Houston started her set with her new single “Million Dollar Bill,” and included “I’m Every Woman,” “My Love Is Your Love,” and “I Look To You,” which she dedicated to her mother Cissy, backstage. During the show, she took a break to interview with GMA hosts Robin Roberts and Diane Sawyer.
The crowd was reportedly pleased with the performance, and Whitney was grateful:
She ended the number by thanking the crowd profusely for coming. “God bless you,” she said repeatedly. “You make me feel so good.”
