Yesterday marked the 10 years anniversary of Whitney Houston’s tragic death. RIP.Houston was an amazing talent, selling over 200 million records worldwide and racking up dozens of awards over her 30 year career.
She also struggled with drugs and alcohol. And on February 11, 2012, she was found dead in her hotel room in the Beverly Hills hotel.
The official cause of death was drowning due to coronary artery disease and cocaine intoxication.In 2003, the legendary singer, whose struggles with addiction had become a constant topic of conversation in the tabloids, agreed to do a now-infamous phone interview with Wendy Williams on her radio show.Williams often gossiped about Houston’s drug use, her seemingly erratic behavior, and her marriage to Bobby Brown.
