Answer : WHITNEY HOUSTON
Whitney Elizabeth Houston (August 9, 1963- February 11, 2012) was a Black singer, model, and entertainer.
Houston grew up in a musical family. Her mother was Grammy award winning gospel R&B singer Cissy Houston, and her cousin is Grammy Award winning pop singer Dionne Warwick.
Houston’s first recording as a featured vocalist was with the experimental jazz-funk ensemble Material. She also appeared as a model in Seventeen magazine and others. By 1983, Houston had entered a worldwide contract with Arista Records. The following year came her first commercial success, “Hold Me” a duet with Teddy Pendergrass. Her self titled debut was released in 1985 with successful singles “You Give Good Love”, “Saving All My Love For You”, “How Will I Know” and “Greatest Love Of All”.
Houston made her acting debut with the romantic thriller film The Bodyguard. She recorded six songs for the film’s soundtrack, including “I Will Always Love You” which became the best-selling physical single by a female in music history.
In 2000 Houston’s public image became tarnished when it was revealed that she had been battling spousal abuse with her husband, Bobby Brown. Additionally she had clearly lost a great deal of weight and this, coupled with shaky (if not cancelled) public performances gave way to rumors of cocaine addiction. In 2002, Houston admitted in a television interview to abusing cocaine, marijuana, and various other drugs. In 2004, Houston entered a drug rehab program in California.
In March 2005, Houston re-entered drug rehabilitation. She was back in rehab in 2009, due to a relapse but that same year Houston released I Look to You, her first studio album in seven years. While the album did debut at No. 1 and sold more than 1 million copies, it failed to produce any massive hit singles, or receive Grammy Awards nominations.
She was seen acting belligerent in front of a Hollywood nightclub in February 2012. Houston died of an accidental drug overdose at the Beverly Hilton Hotel on February 11, 2012 at the age of 48.
