I just found out that TM3 shows the Oprah Winfrey Show with Whitney on Sunday August 1st at 12:30AM in Germany! I wanted to add it to the list but I can't get a password so it would be great if you did to inform all the other German fans who are burning to see the show. (submitted by: Nadine X.?)

Hi there! Today's Life section of USA Today listed the nominations for the 1999 MTV Music Awards, which were announced Wednesday in New York. Whitney is nominated for R&B video of the year. (I imagine it must be HH, since WYB and INRBIOK aren't really original, and MLIYL hasn't been aired on MTV at the time of the announcement. Personally, I feel both HH and MLIYL are beautiful videos and either would win hands down.) (submitted by: Patrick R.)

A BIG LIE! CE N'EST PAS VRAI! NON E VERO!
According to "Top of the Pops" Whitney will release an album in Spanish language in the near future for her longtime fans in South America. Is this really true? What comes next? The greatest hits album, the film "Anything for you" or the spanish album? I can't wait for all of them! (submitted by: Simon S.)

Whitney was featured on VH1 "100 Greatest Women of Rock." She placed as #61 (or #60). BIG FAT WHATEVER! They showed great footage of her singing at awards shows, etc., as well as comments about her from the likes of Brandy, Cissy Houston, Dionne Warwick, and others whom I cannot recall right now.

I was scouting through my cd collection when i came across an old Annie Lennox cd single called precious and low and behold on the b side is a rare finding of step by step.I've been wanting to hear the lennox version for ages and I actually have it.The verses have been totally re written...all that is the same is the chorus and the bridge but over all its a good version....although no where near as good as whitney's.

ALL ACCESS: WHITNEY HOUSTON SPECIAL Thursday, July 21, 4:30 (EST) on MTV.

All Access: Whitney Houston is a half-hour behind- the-scenes look at the pop superstar's current World Tour in support of her My Love Is Your Love album. Whitney takes MTV News' John Norris on an exclusive backstage tour - you'll see her inside her dressing room, getting made-up, going over her set list with daughter Bobbi Kristina, showing off her new Dolce & Gabbana wardrobe, and much more. The show takes a look back at Whitney's wild year, and a second look at an album that's really taking off now due to the top-5 successes of two street savvy singles: "Heartbreak Hotel" and the current hit "It's Not Right But It's Okay." We also get an exclusive look at Whitney's surprise appearance at the recent Gay Pride Pier Dance in New York City, where Whitney performed the dance remixes that brought her huge success this year in the clubs.

I was looking at this magazine called XXL. It's a hip-hop, urban magazine. The month on the magazine was June, 1999. Anyway, to get to the point, the magazine was making up its own awards, "The XXL Awards"- The Awards For People Who Should Get Them, something like that. It had categories like, Producer of the Year- Whoever really produced "The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill", Worst Rap Artist- Harlem World, and a category that was called "The Ol' Dirty Bastard Lifetime Achievement Award, that award went to- Whitney Houston! I wonder what they were trying to say with that one! (submitted by: Kevin X.?)

Whitney is in the Jet Magazine issue of July 26, run out and get it. It's an interview of her discussing kicking off her WORLD TOUR in 5yrs. and why she chose to do smaller crowds. (submitted by: Andrea X.?)

WH WEBMASTER DIES.
I have NO good notice for you. You know Rodrigo Cardoso - Whitney's brasilian fan - President of the Whitney Houston Forever Fan club. He died during a shooting between the police and thief-of-cars in July 15, 1999. He was arrived at a bullet-lost. I am so sad. He was a big friend in Brazil. (submitted by: Ricardo R.)

This is from the tabloid trash STAR MAGAZINE, but it is actually a 100% positive story on her! (submitted by: Arunesh R.)

According to New York Post Online, July 15/99.
This is from Liz Smith's Gossip column

AND SPEAKING of the theater - and one of Ben's favorite shows, "Footloose" - here's something sweet. Stacy Francis, currently starring in "Footloose," attended Whitney Houston's concert in Connecticut the other night. Before Whitney launched into her hit single "Exhale (Shoop Shoop)," she asked if anybody in the audience could "shoop" along with her? Whitney then spotted Stacy in the third row and said, "I know this girl can!" She invited Stacy onstage for an impromptu, roof-raising jam session. After it was over, Whitney sent Stacy back to her seat, encouraging the audience to see this Broadway diva in "Footloose." (submitted by: Arunesh R.)
