Whitney Houston (9 Agustus 1963 – 11 Februari 2012) adalah seorang penyanyi pop dan R&B, artis, produser rekaman, penulis lagu dan mantan model Amerika Serikat. Kesuksesannya membuka pintu bagi para penyanyi Afro-Amerika yang lain, khususnya dari kalangan wanita, untuk sukses di dunia musik.[2][3] Dia juga sering sekali dijuluki sebagai "The Voice".[4][5] Whitney Houston dikenal sebagai salah seorang diva pop yang memiliki jangkauan suara kuat 3,5 oktaf. Ia juga dikenal karena kemampuan penyanyi pop-gospel yang bersuara indah dan kuat.[6]

Houston mulai bernyanyi di gereja ketika masih anak-anak dan menjadi vokalis latar belakang di sekolah menengah. Dengan bimbingan ketua Arista Records, Clive Davis, ia menandatangani kontrak dengan label tersebut pada usia 19 tahun. Dua album studio pertamanya, Whitney Houston (1985) dan Whitney (1987), keduanya mencapai nomor satu di Billboard 200 di Amerika Serikat. , dan hingga saat ini adalah dua album pertama terlaris yang dirilis oleh semua artis dalam sejarah. Hingga hari ini, ia adalah satu-satunya artis yang memiliki tujuh single nomor satu berturut-turut di tangga lagu Billboard Hot 100 AS, dari "Saving All My Love for You" pada tahun 1985 hingga "Where Do Broken Hearts Go" pada tahun 1988.

Pada tahun 1980-an, Houston adalah salah seorang penyanyi wanita Afrika-Amerika pertama yang masuk ke dalam tangga lagu MTV yang pada saat ini didominasi penyanyi rock kulit putih. Album debutnya menjadi album debut dengan penjualan tertinggi sebagai seorang penyanyi solo, yang menduduki peringkat #1 di tangga lagu Billboard 200. Ia juga memegang 7 buah singel #1 di tangga Billboard Hot 100, mematahkan rekor 6 kali yang dipegang The Beatles dan Bee Gees. Ia telah menjual 180 juta keping album yang membuatnya menjadi salah satu penyanyi paling laris sepanjang masa. Ia berkarier aktif dari tahun 1984 hingga kematiannya di tahun 2012. Dia bersama Mariah Carey dan Celine Dion sering dianggap sebagai Trinity Vocal atau ketiga diva pop dengan kualitas vokal terbaik sepanjang sejarah musik dengan karir yang gemilang. Dia telah menerima anugerah Grammy Hall Of Fame lewat lagunya "I Will Always Love You" dan telah menerima Honors International Artist of All Time dari American Music Awards.

Kehidupan awal[sunting | sunting sumber]

Whitney Elizabeth Houston lahir pada 9 Agustus 1963, di daerah yang pada saat itu merupakan lingkungan berpenghasilan menengah di Newark, New Jersey. Dia adalah putri prajurit Angkatan Darat dan eksekutif hiburan John Russell Houston, Jr dan penyanyi Injil Emily "Cissy" (Drinkard) Houston. Kakak lelakinya Michael adalah seorang penyanyi, dan kakak tirinya adalah mantan pemain bola basket Gary Garland. Kedua orangtuanya adalah orang Afrika-Amerika. Melalui ibunya, Houston adalah sepupu pertama penyanyi Dionne Warwick dan Dee Dee Warwick. Ibu baptisnya adalah Darlene Love dan bibinya yang terhormat adalah Aretha Franklin, yang ia temui pada usia 8 atau 9 ketika ibunya membawanya ke studio rekaman.Houston dibesarkan sebagai seorang Baptis, tetapi juga terkena Gereja Pantekosta. Setelah kerusuhan Newark 1967, keluarga itu pindah ke daerah kelas menengah di East Orange, New Jersey, ketika dia berusia empat tahun. Orang tuanya kemudian bercerai.[7]

My Love Is Your Love, dirilis pada November 1998. Meskipun awalnya dijadwalkan untuk menjadi album hit terbesar dengan beberapa lagu baru, sesi rekaman sangat bermanfaat sehingga album studio baru dirilis.

Tanggal Nama pertunjukan Detail
June 23, 1983 The Merv Griffin Show
April 5, 1986 Champs-Elysées
(French TV Talk-Show)
  • Whitney Houston met France's Serge Gainsbourg on this live talk-show, which was then the most watched Saturday evening show in France.[118]
  • Having sung her hit "Saving All My Love for You", Whitney was brought by presenter Michel Drucker over to the couch where drunken Serge was waiting. Serge sat down next to Whitney and immediately said in heavily accented English, "I want to f*** you". Needless to say, Miss Houston was more than a little shocked by this 58-year-old French crooner's rather crude display of appreciation, but she stayed nonetheless and sang a duet with him before the end of the show.[119]
  • This incident listed #41 in NME's "Top 100 Rock Moments of All Time" in 2001 and #48 in VH1's "100 Most Outrageous Celebrity Moments" in 2004.[120][121]
February 7, 1987 Sanremo Music Festival
  • Whitney was the international guest at the finale of the most popular Italian contest and awards. Her live performance of All at Once got a huge standing ovation and the audience asked her for the encore, the request was immediately satisfied. That was one of the rare encores requested in the history of the contest.

November 13, 1989 Sammy Davis Jr.'s 60th Anniversary Celebration In Show Business
January 27, 1991 Super Bowl XXV
  • Whitney Houston performed "The Star-Spangled Banner" right before the start of Super Bowl XXV, played at Tampa Stadium in Tampa, Florida on January 27, 1991; the United States was embroiled in the Persian Gulf War at the time. She took the field before 73,813 fans and a TV audience of 115 million.[127][128]
  • The patriotic feeling of her gospel-inspired version resonated so strongly with the public that it was released as a single. Within weeks, sales of video tapes, CDs and audio cassettes of her performance raised more than $500,000 for the American Red Cross Gulf Crisis Fund.[127][128]
  • The single was reissued on September 27, 2001, as a charity CD single after the September 11, attacks on the World Trade Center and The Pentagon and has been certified platinum for U.S. sales in excess of 1 million copies by RIAA.[129]
  • Whitney Houston, The Whitney Houston Foundation For Children, Inc. and Arista Records donated their royalties and net proceeds from the sale of re-released single to New York Fraternal Order Of Police and The New York Firefighters 9/11 Disaster Relief Fund.[130][131]
  • The single released in 1991, reached No. 20 on Billboard Hot 100 Singles Chart; making her second artist to turn the national anthem into a pop hit of that magnitude since José Feliciano's version has reached No. 50 in 1968 and re-released single in 2001, peaked No. 6 on the Hot 100 chart; becoming easily the biggest hit version ever of "The Star-Spangled Banner".[131][132]
