WHITNEY HOUSTON surprise guest at New York City LGBT Pride Celebration submitted by: Rodney D. source: Rodney was an eye "Whit"ness! Date: June 28, 1999 Whitney Houston drives the crowds wild with a guest appearance at NYC Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgendered Pride Celebration. Her performance was not advertised and was kept under wraps until the Diva arrived at Chelsea Piers where in-between 7,000-10,000 people were in attendance. She followed the performance by Erin Henderson and when they made the announcement and then appeared on stage. The energy went right off the scale! She performed two sizzling hot songs - remixes of HH and INRBIO with the crowds singing right along with her. At one point, a stage assistant came on-stage to give her the red fur jacket that was featured in the Oprah Show but she jokingly pretended to kick her away since the tempertures were in the mid-90s. One individual who was a guest of the committee hosting the show said that she was in her glory and really enjoyed being there. Bobby Brown was with her but stayed backstage along with two massive bodyguards.
Immediately after perfoming her last song and
shouting to the crowd "I love you, New York" a
massive fireworks display went off to end a
spectacular performance.
