Finally, an honest review! I saw the show in Dublin and Whitney was fantastic. The papers painted a bad picture - however, Whitney sounded and looked great. I don't understand the the negative reviews. The concert was nothing short of FANTASTIC!!!!!!
I really couldn't agree anymore with his review. There have been so many people who've been very harsh on Whitney for a long time. It is as if they want her to fail badly, the way Michael Jackson fell down, and sadly passed away. I honestly don't know why people these days can be so harsh on Whitney. I've seen her sing through youtube, and she still is as amazing today as she's been for years. She had been away for touring for a long time, and I think people have been very harsh on her. She is still delivering where so many people are just counting her out. We don't have many legends like Whitney Houston still out there anymore. All I can deeply say to Whitney is that she should keep her head up, and not let anyone make her feel bad about herself. She is still at it, regardless of what others are still libbing about her. I hope she tours here in the U.S. soon.
I am so very proud of Whitney. She is my inspiration right now. Some of us, as Whitney, have been through some very rough years of late. Yes we all can make bad choices. Life can be a rough road and it really not wise to judge another's path. She is giving it her all and what I see are very soulful, honest performances. Do I care is she doesn't hit the high notes? Not in the least!. Whitney I am so glad to hear your sweet voice again.
I hope Whitney is planning to perform in New York City later this year - she's terrific! All the best.
So true!! I went on the 25th April to see Whitney in London and it was honestly the best night of my life, Whitney inspires me so much and i love her so much! It was such a wicked night and she looked so happy, i have some awesome pictures, right at the front! Was so much fun, going to London again tomorrow and can already say now that it will be an AMAZING night! Whitney we LOVE you!! xxx

Hello Ms. Houston
I have been meaning to write to you.
I hope that you will not find this to forward of me,
I believe the Lord is trying to tell you, that you should be singing Gospel Music.
Before you got started you were singing to the Glory of God, and your voice was magnificent!
you had no vocal problems at all. Go Back to where you first began.
the Lord will meet you. He is waiting
Amen.
Your voice is your Gift from God use it to his Glory.
may God continue to bless you and keep you.
Randyman... you said it best
Took the words right out of my mouth.
I was reading the news prints on her not hitting the highnotes and people were just rude with thier comments... so I said what i had to and then signed up here 
Love you Whitney !!!!
Whitney got up there and gave it her all and honestly that makes her even that much more special
I think it is unfair that some of the reviews for Whitney's "Nothing but Love" tour are comparing her to the old Whitney of the past 10-15 years. It is obvious that she is not the old Whitney we all have grown to love. Yes I agree that it is sad that years of abuse to her voice have left her not able to hit those high notes. I also feel that the record company could have and should have rearranged songs to accomodate her voice today, perhaps droping the arrangements a couple of octaves, we know she cannot hit those notes in "I Will Always Love You" but I love Whitney and will always love her. I just think that she needed more time to grasp the new voice she now has and with time make that new voice work for her and with her old songs. This way no one can say that she has lost it or that she should end her singing career but instead say Whitney has made the most of her new voice and sounds better and stronger then ever "Welcome Back Whitney".
I hope to think Ms. Houston really reads these or at least someone close to her camp does so in prayer here I go....Only what U do for God will last....I dont read blogs or care to listen to the gossip after this I more than likely will not come back to this site again but as Monique would say this was on my spirit.....U have NOTHING else to prove Ms. Houston....Only what U do for God will last....Ur music will live on as long as God allows this world to exist....Time wears on this flesh and as we age things change....Only what u do for God will last...I know it hurts to hear the mess I dont know u and it hurts me...but the difference is I know U were not placed on this earth just for ur VOICE U r Whitney Houston and that is who u will be til the day u r called home....Only what U do for God will last... Now it is time to find ur place IN GOD in this WORLD and not to be a part of it and its mess anymore....Only what U do for God will last...U were not made to be the VOICE for this world...but U were made to be A VOICE for Christ...Only what U do for God will last... U have made money more than many of us can dream about....But God does not give it to u for u to keep....but for u to do his work....That is where the true riches lie...Ony what u do for God will last....I watched one of ur shows where U brought this beautiful little girl on the stage and she began to sing....Only what U do for God will last...and for the first time I saw a face that I only saw when U r with ur little Angel...ONly what U do for God will last....That may be ur purpose NOW...To produce singers that ARE TRULY GREAT!... when we r old and retire it is so sad to say NO ONE WILL BE LISTENING TO OUR GENERATION OF MUSICIANS IT IS SENSELESS AND FLEETING...WE will still be listening to u patti luther and the host of many greats....NOT BEYONCE RIHANNA OR ANY OF THIS MESS....Where are the future greats who is managing and grooming them for greatness...not the sex but the greatest love the surpasses all time...down right good music...not music of the time sex big agos and rude boys ughhh so nausiating...just plain ole common sense good music....that hits to the soul of a person....where are they?....Over the years I have seen u all u wanted was to be whitney on ur terms....not all the cameras and the flash u wanted to be shielded from all this mess God has already shown u wayyyyyy before it came....Only what u do for God will last..... But as powerful women in Christ we have to learn lessons the hard way to make them stick with our spirit...Stop allowing Whitney to happen according to the people around u...TAKE back ur control...See the one thing about this WORLD u can sound a HOT PICKLE and people are still going to pay to see the mess that they think they have made u to be....but U R blessed and highly favored....All this u r doing to be back on top u dont have to do...U have not had an album in eons but yet u never left the news baby u will be hot when u r dead and gone!.....now it is just time to be what u really want to be and not care what they think cause good or bad they r going to talk...and all u need for this age of now is just that anything u touch turns to gold ....Now is the time to have them talk about WHAT U WANT THEM TO...Find urself in God...really find ur purpose and the rest will be a breeze this world is filled with a bunch of minions they will follow but now is ur time to decide what is it in u that u want them to follow...now is the time for u to allw them to see who whitney really is...ONLY WHAT U DO FOR GOD WILL LAST...Blessed to be a blessing...ANGE0,

I am so tired of people and the media messing with my Whitney, you sang girl, and kept doing ya thing! The media always portrays bad on people that are strong, and she was able to come out of a long marriage, and return to the stage, AWESOME I love whitney and she have an excellent range in her voice good job Whitney !!!!!!
Ms. Houston I have always loved your work and still do. But the I know the time has come and I know you don't know me but the LORD said to me a long time ago to tell you that you have done so much in the world and had great success. But now it's time for you to for My Glory. It's time to sing unto the LORD. He want's you back.
Whitney, I have always loved your music. I actually grew up listening to your songs and tried to sing like you as a little girl lol!. You have been an inspiration to me in the past and presently in your come back. However, i too believe that God wants you not only to draw closer to him but to also glorify Him in song. He has given you that gift and wants you to use it unto his honour and glory. Just surrender everything to him. Don't hold back! Jesus is waiting for you! love you girl. Be strong!
Whitney, us true fans still adore you and I, for one, am just happy to see u out there doing u and nobody else, and embracing the love from your fans.
[ It's inevitable that critics and haters are going to be watching every single note she sings, trying to compare her to something she was 10-20 years ago. Any little thing she does that is not like she used to is being scrutinized to the fullest and it's absolutely disgusting!!! These people need to get a life. At least she's not out there making a fool of herself by lip-syncing or trying to act like she's 25. She is Whitney and that's all she can be!! Like it or not!! Just ridiculous. Right now she is such an easy target for these negative people, but it's amazing how she is continuing to fly above and do her thing...
Whitney, we love you!! And I pray you will do some shows in America because it would be an honor just to be in the same room with you! Peace & love
I Was at her show last night at the 02 arena x
her last tour night here in the united kingdom x
she was absoulately amazing, i didnt want her to leave and i just wanted her to carry on singing forever x
she is the most amazing and beautiful female artist x
i had the best night ever last night and she said that she would come back to tour again and ii will be waiting to see her again i cannot wait to see her again x
she looked stunning and she made my night by telling stories and keeping the crowd interacted with her x
and at two stages in the show the whole arena was singing and she just stopped because she wanted to hear and she had a smile on her face x
she also did a tribute to micheal jackson and she spoke about him and she told the stories behind her songs x
she also sang to her mum and at the end of the show her and her mother was crying and she went off stage as if she wasnt coming back because she had said goodbye and everything but then she done an outfit change and done an amazing performance of million dollar bill x

Gerry Ryan died today 30/04/2010. What a shame. I'm glad he had this experience, it sounded like he had a blast. R.I.P.
Oh my gosh, he died. I can't believe it. Well, at least I'm glad he got to see Whitney before he passed on, and see that she still has the voice within. Wherever Jerry is, he is with the stars in the bright sky.

It's good to see that some takes a vested interest in reporting the truth versus relying on sensationalism to assist securing profits. Just the type of pick-me-up I needed at this moment in my life. Keep up the good work!

I can't wait to hear you live in concert. You are my favorite singer of all time. I love you and God Bless You! Keep striving in the face of the enemy. I am praying for you! Much love
