“If you can’t accept my man, you can’t accept me!” black ppl speak like that to their parents? #whitney — The Latifah (@TheLatifah) January 18, 2015

Watching #WhitneyMovie reminds me of all the voices now performing in the “Heavenly Choir,” including #WhitneyHouston and #LutherVandross.

Album sales are one thing. But I don’t think we’ll ever feel the same about Mariah Carey as we do #Whitney. Not even close. — rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) January 18, 2015

I hope that #BobbiKristina feels ok about the movie #Whitney

It’s easy to criticize… It should be just as easy to give credit where it’s due. There is some good acting in this #WhitneyMovie. — Christian Keyes (@ChristianKeyes) January 18, 2015

Dionne Warwick screened #WhitneyMovie with Angela Bassett, Clive Davis supports it & a Bobby Brown special; only person mad is Pat Houston!
