I don't know, these things are all relative and mean more to some than others. I'm not a fan, but don't like it when people die. The only people I am indifferent to are war criminals and Cliff Richard.

If you don't care about your own life, why should you expect others to care? Tens of thousands of people die every year who are far more worthy of being mourned than Whitney Houston, but you won't hear a word about most of them.

I'm already so fucking sick of hearing about her. The media's sanctification of her and her daughter is revolting.

I have no problem with her or with the way she lived her life FWIW. She didn't hurt anybody but herself.

Yes, the media goes overboard when people die. I think Piers Morgan covered it for several days on CNN. Enough already, I want to hear the bat shit Republican guys. They are comedy gold.

I don't care how someone lives their life either. I was recently reading someone say that they didn't like the writings of Jack London because he was a morphine addict. So fucking what? Could he write? That is the question. "Ooh he's a racist, ooh he's a junkie, ooh he shagged a lot". Yes, okay. But could they do what they do and do it well?

It's almost like the media, "friends" and her family are trying to make a martyr out of Houston, which is quite sickening. If it hadn't been for that evil Bobby Brown, Houston would still be a virgin, singing gospel songs with the church choir.

I do feel sorry for her and her family/loved ones, but the same media who spent a decade dragging her through the mud is now enshrining her, it's ridiculous. AND, we also get a bunch of crocodile-tear crying celebrities who likely barely knew her, if at all, talking about how sad they are etc. It's absurd.

Someone has a photo of her in the coffin.

Well, Houston's death shouldn't be much of a shock to anyone, and where were all her family/loved ones when she was still alive and needed them? Under the circumstances wouldn't a nice quiet, dignified funeral have been in order?
