Whitney was so young and pretty
Wow!
She was 21 YO but she seems like already in the business for 21 years. Look at her manner of response in this interview, maturely perfect.
22
She always look 55 lol
@@jeonjungkookie1209she looks more mature prob bc of the era but she doesn’t look old i don’t see what ur talking about
@@jeonjungkookie1209 No she doesn't.
@@living_peace 21 here. She hadn't turned 22 just yet
At 22-23, she was already so poised and articulate, considering the immediate musical stardom she garnered
*21
She grew up in the bussiness around celebrity's her mother sang back up for Elvis
I had a dream about Whitney. I heard her voice. She was SANGING in Heaven and her voice was RESTORED. The privilege we had to hear her voice was taken for granted while she was on earth. How joyous to hear it again someday for eternity!
John 3:13
@Mr102185 I think the meaning of this verse is that nobody has gone to heaven and returned, but Jesus
Love to all Whitney Houston Mega fans forever , Taking Whitney Houston for granted no no no no no no no no no no no no no no never never, I think what probably happened is that we loved her too much and it was so much for her to deal with being perfect singing Amazing all the time it is a lot of work being magnificent and stayin magnificent and understanding what it is to be magnificent it could be a lot of pressure WHITNEY!!!!
Wow 👌👍🏽 what a dream
She spoke from a naive place -- still so young and optimistic. The pressures of the business, career demands and her husband ended up crushing her. What a beautiful soul and monumental talent.
I don't think she imagined herself getting so large. That is definitely incredible amount of pressure that she hadn't yet experienced.
Don’t forget her own choices regarding each of these experiences for which she took full responsibility for in many interviews.
@@ells80 True dat. But few could can imagine the enormous pressure she was under that led her to make those choices.
The greatest singer of all time. Periodo.
Whitney so pretty and her innocence here is so sweet! RIP Queen
So nice. A real professional, respectful Canadian interviewer. Not looking for scandal, not comparing her to her competitors. Refreshing.. and she got the best out of Whitney.
She’s a master at interviews. If you notice she pretty much kept her answers 60 seconds short. She didn’t babble and go on and on.
She really was a princess. I honestly believe this is who she was, before everyone started using her for money and fame. Before "Whitney Houston" mania ensued she was just Nippy. She just wanted to sing beautiful music with her otherworldly voice.
Amen
NOBODY USED HER.... she was a very powerful woman who made her OWN CHOICES.
@@tdad8683 TO an extent.
angelic being , her beauty is captivating. she has a genuine kindness
Rest in Peace Whitney Houston. Gone far too soon.
Very interesting questions asked. Nice interviewer and Whitney looked so young, fresh, beautiful and excited for the future.
The interviewer is a very nice interviewer she really did do a very nice interview
Her skin is just FLAWLESS!!!!
Yess!!
Yeah well at 22 it’s not unusual
30 years down the line Whitney Houston, sadly died. Wonderful, beautiful, gifted singer. I'm sorry your not here anymore & I hope your at peace ⭐♥️⭐
So sad. I have followed Whitney Houston since her early days and remember watching interviews like this. I knew she was going to be a superstar but if you had told me back then how her life would end 30 yrs into the future I would not, or should I say could not believe it.
Wow amazing interviewer, she really did that background check and well thought out questions.
GORGEOUS. Honestly!!!💜 Especially her speaking voice.💕
💕 it's 2023 and she's still the BEST LOOKING GIRL in the whole world! 💕
Queen. Thank you for sharing this rare interview.
She was beautiful on the inside and out!!!
Very smart at a very young age
She sounds so humble and kind
She was so gorgeous
This interview really reflects a lot after I've read and watched all these books and documentaries about Whitney. Thank you for uploading.
Lovely...quite brilliant at age 21!! Whitney was my childhood hero and the video kinda brings back my magical 80s and memorable 90s. She's now an angel alongside Puff Johnson whom you both touched humanity and we are mighty grateful 🙏...
Kind and gentle soul, with a beautiful body and spectacular voice (both speaking and singing). She was truly angel-like in her youth, before all the more negative aspects of stardom started to get to her. I know it's not realistic because we live in an imperfect world, but I wish she could have stayed this way forever. 😍
What a lady ❤❤
She had a beautiful soul may she SIP😇
Graceful, Maturity, Fearless, Whitney is an angel forever 💛✨
“Where do you see yourself in twenty or thirty years?”… that hit hard 😞
Ive neverrrrr seen this thank u so much for this
Beautiful stunning Whitney ❤
Oh gosh a young, intelligent and beautiful Miss Whitney Houston ❤️💯
So lovely and humble. Sometimes we have to take our own advice 💜
We have never seen another singer come out and be compared to the greats like this. She was a born superstar
Pure, innocent, beautiful and talented ❤
Excellent interviewer, very prepared with lots of pertinent questions. And the questions are brief, which allows Whitney to speak her mind at leisure.
21 years old and dominated straight out the gate
The queen always beautiful person inside and out with the best voice ❤️
She was always a beauty and so poised ❤ Miss her ❤️Music has not been the same for me since that awful day on 02-11-2012😢
my heavens , though her face is very youthful , i would've never guessed she was only 21 in this interview .. such maturity and composure
Omg I’m 21 years old and i see so much of myself in her
My beautiful whitney rest in peace my queen and tell your beautiful baby we miss her
Thank you Miss Whitney for bkessing this eorld with your Voice and Spirit.
May you rest in the Highest Abode🙏❤️
Her facial expressions when the interviewer is getting out her question is priceless...Its a shame the industry "gets rid of you" when they feel you cant produce them money or you step out of line...Miss her madly, I guess thats why I'm here watching...
It's like Whitney is waiting for some type of disrespect and Whitney look is "you better not try me"
She was lovely. Graceful and poised.
She was a gorgeous girl 😮❤
30 years down the line , little did she or anyone know she wouldn't be here 30 years later. So sad. Breaks my heart.
🥺🥺🥺
I love that women, miss you nippy 💜💜
Amen momma!!!!!!!
Sooooo intelligent
' why to pursuit a career rather than stay doing background vocals..."- OMG
I see what Robyn saw so cute pretty … we love nippy
Great Woman ♥️ She is missed dearly ❤
I still miss you Whitney .. after all these years.. ❤
She was so nonchalant with her talent lol
A real star.
Who's the amazing interviewer lady? Just wanna tell her thank you for conducting such a professional interview and for being super respectful to Whitney😇
Interesting. This interview took place in 1985. The beginnings of her career and the interviewer asked her all the questions she'll be asked over her entire career... sadly Whitney's answers will change dramatically.
duh that’s what happens as humans get older
@@alazjaw.8968Facts
Great interviewer✅
I got a chill when the interviewer said “20 or 30 years down the line.”
Who could’ve ever predicted that in 30 years Whitney would be dead.
21-year-old Whitney Houston
No Number 1 Hits
No Mansions
No Millions in her bank account
No Millions of fans around the world
Didn't she almost have it all?
yes, exactly, she had it all.
El guardaespalda !!
Gran voz !!!
D.E.P. la originaria de New Jersey
Boa noite com Jesus;TE AMOOOOO
See how she sat. It's exactly the true Whitney. But yeah, Cissy Houston would beat her badly for that.
Oh puleeze🙄 Actually, this interview shows she was raised well with ❤️ and discipline.
@@ralphkramden2089 Cissy wanted that ever so slight masculine or non girly side to never come out of Whitney. Whitney wasn't sitting like "A Lady" in this interview. No judgement, just an observation in comparison to what the old-school World considered "sitting lady like". I'm sure Cissy would have corrected that if she was there. We know she was raised well, however, Whitney was also raised with a strict mother. Its a fact is not an opinion. Cissy was grooming her to be who became. Cissy is a performer, and a woman from another era, so for a woman to sit here like this; very relaxed, very casual. I'm certain Cissy would have wanted her legs crossed like a lady and her posture a little straighter. But WE Love Whitney as is. That was part of the woman's problem she could never just be herself.
@@comeagyn You have no idea what Cissy would've "wanted.". Don't believe everything you read. This girl was doing an interview in jeans and sitting just how her mother would've expected her to in jeans.
what ?
haahahhahaahahahahahahaahhahahahhahahaahahahah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!@@ralphkramden2089
7:08 "20 or 30 yrs down the line"😢.. well, she didn't get to see that 30 year mark
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
SIP 😇
🥺
❤❤
At the time she was just 21 years old. Geez.
Boy, were they right about her!!!😁❤
So based off of that interview Oprah did with Whitney’s brother, she was likely already experimenting with those drugs. I hate that Whitney is not still here today. I truly hate it.
She's only 21 y'all ‼️ 1995 my mother wasn't even married lol
1985!!!
Waze wamuhle weWhitney wabantu!
7:10
We are talking about the greatest voice the pop world has ever heard and she asks the question "why didn't you stay doing back up" - bit of a stupid question isnt it
No way. That's not what she meant. The interviewer gave Whitney all her due props before she asked that question. But to be honest, it was a silly question
Who is the person who conducted the interview?
"As she did."
Why...? 😢

She looks tired
Sounds like Teresa graves looks like Teresa graves
to bad it wasyour brothers were so helpful with drugs
I was more than likely driving her in Toronto when she did that interview, hauled her and those lovely long legs out of the limo for a week, she always gave me her hand to do that. Her manager was also with her. Lovely woman!
Some of these are some of the dumbest questions ever lol. Like she ran out of stuff to ask. Ugh. lol
This interviewer was not creative.
Whitney was her own worst enemy.. What a waste of an exceptionally gifted talent.. Just say no to drugs, kids..
Hopefully you say no too...
Love You Whitney
