Whitney Houston Rocks the GMA Stage

Out promoting her brand new album, Whitney Houston took the stage to perform live on Good Morning America’s Summer Concert Series in New York City on Tuesday (September 1).

Joined by hosts Diane Sawyer and Robin Roberts, the “I Wanna Dance with Somebody” singer belted out her new tunes to the large crowd gathered at Rumsey Playfield.

Of the new album, Jon Pareles of the New York Times wrote, “Seven years after her last album of pop songs, two years after her divorce, Whitney Houston re-emerges with full diva qualifications on ‘I Look to You,’ released Monday. Most of its revelations aren’t verbal; they’re in the husky, vehement sound of her voice.”

And the Washington Post stated, “I Look to You is a finely calibrated, just-modern-enough mix of mom-friendly club bangers and dauntless ballads that, in retrospect, seems like the only album she could have made.”

Whitney Houston grants TV interview to Winfrey

NEW YORK – After a long absence from music, Whitney Houston is staging a much-hyped career comeback with an appearance on "The Oprah Winfrey Show."

Houston will be Winfrey's first guest as the talk-show queen launches her 24th season on Sept. 14. According to her Web site, Oprah.com, Winfrey calls Houston's appearance "the most anticipated music interview of the decade."

The 46-year-old superstar hasn't done a major TV interview since 2002, when she addressed questions about her drug use from ABC's Diane Sawyer.

Houston is releasing her new album, "I Look to You," on Aug. 31.

She is one of the best-selling artists of all time, but her career stalled as she battled drugs and endured a troubled marriage to Bobby Brown.
