Whitney is going to attend the MTV video music awards on Sept 10,1998 live check local listings. for time. (submitted by: Trinity)

Funny, but the official webiste doesn't mention a word of WH's "appearance". Visit the official Awards website.

I don't know if this is news as much as it is info but I just watched an MTV interview with Mariah, She said Whitney was "fun in the studio" and that the media hype about the two of them not getting along was totally not true. She also said that the song will have a very strong message and that "if there was ever a song that would bring us together this is it". Also, MTV said, and I quote "Whitney's yet to be titled album is due for a FALL RELEASE while the Prince of Egypt is due Nov 3, and Mariah's album is due Nov 10." That makes me think Whintey's album will be out sooner than we think. (submitted by: Jimmy W.)

Yesterday, Entertainment Tonight said that Whitney is set to "conjure up some magic" live at the Emmy Awards with a "special salute to 'Cinderella.'" No other details were given, but it sounds like a performance. The Emmy Awards will air Sunday, September 13, from the Los Angeles Shrine Auditorium on NBC. Earlier this week, ET also mentioned that Brandy will be performing for "Cinderella." (submitted by: Lisa D.)

In addition, the August 31 issue of Jet Magazine features a five-page article about Whitney's birthday celebration. [The pictures from this article will be available on this website whenever I have time.] (submitted by: Lisa D.)

Whitney will attend the emmy's. She will introduce and host the segment on "Cindereela" then and now, she will then introduce Brandy, who will sing "sweetest sounds". Visit the official Emmy Awards website. (submitted by: Dave)

I just heard on Entertainment Tonight that Whitney will be appearing on the 50th Annual Emmy Awards show in a special tribute dedicated to Cinderella. This will air September 13/98. Whitney is not scheduled to sing. Also Brandy will be there. (submitted by: Eugene)

I found this is the 8/28/98 New York Daily News:
Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown have once again quieted divorce rumors. The oft-turbulent couple spent Wednesday night grooving with friends at Brian McKnight's show at Radio City Music Hall. The diva appered to be in disguise, with a blond wig, sun glasses and a big hat, but blew her cover when she jumped up onto a chair and was shimmying like crazy. Brown, wearing a hat and bright white suit, took her by the hand to get her to leave. (submitted by: Sharon)

ASIDE COMMENT: What the hell is wrong with WH? Was she drunk or what? As if she had to be escorted out!

Yesterday I was reading an important paper here in Brazil, and something called my attention. There was a note that said that Whitney Houston and Gloria Estefan are participating of the new album of "Só Pra Contrariar". Who remembers the World Music Awards 98, will remember that this group, SPC, won the award for best selling in Brazil, over 3 million copies. Their music style is the most popular in Brazil: Pagode (it's kind of a slow Samba). (submitted by: Fernanda)

I spoke to the BMG rep today . He told me that it looks like Whitney's next release is going to be a double hits package with about three songs .He said that they want to have everything ready in case Sony changes Mariahs release date. He also confirmed that the release of the duet will be split with each artist name appearing first on the product. They want everything split so if there is a display set up for Mariah there MUST be one in that same store for Whitney . (submitted by: Alan M.)

Re the WH/MC duet, New York City radio station WBLS-FM was reporting this morning that half of the albums produced will list the artists of the duet as WH and MC, while the other half will list as MC and WH. They did not say who their source was. I'm not sure if this applies to the single or as it will appear on the album, I think it is the album. Will let you know if I hear any more.

There is an interesting piece on Bobby Brown in the September fifth anniversary issue of Vibe. He reveals that his next album will be the "first\funk gospel project." He assures folks that "Bobby's still the baddest onstage" and even claims that he and New Edition all "have the minds of geniuses." What an ego! (submitted by: Kevin)

You can hear the ENTIRE acoustic "How Will I Know" on the Lemonheads' website at http://come.to/lemonheads! You can puchase this rare U.K. single from Music Blvd.. Apparently, there are TWO versions -- one 'acoustic' and another which is 'electric'. I hope someone can find/put the electric one online...

I just read in a brazilian magazine that Mariah was shooting her next video in Spain and that the album would be out in SEPTEMBER!! Meaning we will be able to listen to the duet on her album first. Maybe she will promote another song first and let WH promote the duet as the first song from her album. [FYI: The Brazillian Press also prints tabloid stories as the truth, so don't necessarily count on this info.] (submitted by: Danny Marc)

It was reported on MTV News , yesterday, that Whitney has completed working on a song with Missy which is to be included on Nippy's next Album. It was also reported that Nippy was currently concluding studio work with Mariah on a duet which is to be included in the the Prince of Egypt soundtrack. The report further stated that Whitney's next album is slated to be released next fall. I guess the New CD is finally coming. (submitted by: Trevor P.)

R. Kelly listed, in the September issue of the Ebony Magazine, the major superstars that he has written songs for. The singers include Michael Jackson, Whitney Houston and Gladys Knight (see pages 42 & 43). I guess we can take it that Nippy has accepted to sing the song which the super-tallented song writer wrote specially for her. Well we'll just have to wait and see. (submitted by: Trevor P.)

My friend was in New York's Times Square, yesterday. Walking around when she saw about 8 limos parked down a side street, as she walk up to see why there was so many (nice) cars a black Porsha (?) pull up and out jumped WHITNEY ! She was going into a bui lding and my friend said she heard them tell Whitney that "they had been waiting for her -- but not that long". She also said that it looked like Mr Brown driving the car but the windows were tinted . (submitted by: Alan M.)

According to the Associated Press in the U.S., WH is working w/Lauryn Hill on a remake of "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face". (From Manish's Whitney website)

Matt T. reports that there is a NEW pop-up video from Whitney. Apparently, they've done "I Wanna Dance", as well as "IYBT", which we already know about. This video will not be shown on this Thursday's episode on VH1. You can make suggestions/requests to the Pop-Up people-- maybe you'd like them to have an entire show for WH vids, like they have for Rod Steward, the Rolling Stones, Madonna and many other artists.

The VH1 website says that it will be the "IYBT" video on popup video on Thrusday.

Why is there still no mention of WH + MC on the Prince of Egypt website???

WARNING! to all the people who are annoying me and trying to push me to do things better / faster on this webpage: important webmaster quits! If I am late doing something, it's cuz maybe I might have a life and other responsibilities, besides the web, so BACK OFF!

Tonight on E.T.! Rachel just happened to catch E.T. tonite. They showed footage of WH's birthday party! Look for the audio of the mini-interview later tonite, exclusively on the WHWW. WH looked great in a black dress and she had the same hair style as she did on the Europe tour. ET made mention of the new album to be released 'this fall'.

They will also have a bit about it on Access Hollywood tonite.

Thursday, August 13th 1998 at 4:30 pm on VH1 : Pop-Up Video featuring videos by Whitney Houston, Toni Braxton, Vanessa Williams and Natalie Cole. This is probably the IYBT video.

The song "If You Still Believe" can be heard throughout the trailer that is being played in movie theatres for "the Prince Of Egypt". The song is performed by someone else but you can still hear the basic melody and words. It is playing before "Saving Private Ryan". It sounds like a ballad...very Houston-esque like! (submitted by: Rod V.)

On the Gossip show, which airs on the E channel, they said today that Whitney is going to appear on the soundtrack to Prince Of Egypt. She will be recording a duet with MADONNA, not Mariah Carey. They never even mentioned Mariah's name. This show is usually right on. This changes everything! (submitted by: paul a.)

Earlier someone said that E! had reported Madonna and Whitney were doing a song together. I watched the exact thing on t.v. and they said that Madonna and Whitney were doing a movie together. They didn't say anything about a duet. (submitted by: Nadel T.)

If there is a Madonna fan who knows more info, please report it. If you are on a Madonna Mailing list, please give me some info.
