She was definitely throwing a lot of lowkey shade at MTV, right in front of MTV. 😂😂

Gotta love Whitney.

How rare is it for someone to have the face and body of a supermodel and once in a lifetime voice? Not to mention her charismatic personality. There will never be another Whitney Houston

To be that blunt, elegant and fine all at the same time. What a gift.

Whitney threw all kinds of shade on MTV up in MTV's face. LOL!

"I love it when they have no choice." Gotta love Whitney, so eloquent, and she really speaks her mind.

Her strength, her shade, her complexity! Whitney was a character!

She looks absolutely beautiful here. She had a perfect face!

@Sttephy30 8 years ago

Her face was gorgeous. Nose is a perfect shape.

I love how she praises Martha Wash voice. Martha is one the best underrated singers and pretty who doesn't get the deserved recognition.

Ugh I love the way she talks. Her vocabulary, the cadence, the natural melody in how she speaks.

Forgot how ridiculously beautiful she was.

@sebaspaz0103 7 years ago

She looked stunning. She really looked like this was late 1998. I love it!

Let's not forget that Prince, Michael, Whitney and Sade were the very first Black artists to open doors for us

When my insomnia rages, as it is tonight, I come and listen to her. Her voice never makes me fall asleep because she is so engaging- but it is so soothing - I will miss her and love her until my dying day.
