      I've said the same thing since 1985 when I first saw her. She was a phenomenal beauty - and natural unlike many in Hollywood. She's absolutely 10 out of 10 and has the most incredible smile.

      I admire both Aretha and Whitney so bad that I don't mind if people put one or another first in their own ranking. To me both of them are as good as it gets. There's a realm of music that I just call “greatness”, and I don't feel bothered about comparing them anymore at that level, it's all greatness. It's the same with like Miles Davis and Dizzy Gillespie, both are greatness, and for me it's as good as it can ever be, so no comparison anymore.

    Whitney did a lot for BeBe and CeCe by pulling them further into the mainstream. They were mainly known in Gospel until she recorded this song with them. She went on the road with them, singing background and accepting NO money. She filled in for CeCe in Russia when she left the tour. She tirelessly promoted and supported them. When CeCe went solo, she brought her on stage to sing at VH1 Honors, then co-wrote "Count On Me" for her and CeCe to sing, which helped her 1st CD sell. RIP Whitney

    Now that Bebe has shared in his Uncensored on TVOne that Whitney was a solo artist at this time and wanted to sing with her friends but her record label wasn't having it, it gives this performance an ENTIRELY new level of appreciation for the fact that Whitney was a member of the group Bebe and Cece Winans for a minute!🤣

    These 3 and the music of The Winans helped me get through college in the late 1980s. Being on campus alone on the weekends, far from home and family, no transportation, and poor; I’d turn on the radio, study, pray, and ask God to “Help Me Hold Out.” The encouraging messages in their music is not only uplifting, but gives hope and feeds my soul. 🙏🏼

    Gosh Whitney gave me chills on this song she is so talented and I miss her dearly. I am grateful that we got to experience this beautiful voice. She certainly had a gift and I am grateful that I can listen to her when I am down. Whitney also had a personality like no other , it shined through on camera and her interviews. her facial expressions from 7:08- 7:39 are priceless when BeBe and CeCe are talking she always had internal thoughts during interviews and it showed through her body language. She was just real nothing fake about her.

      That song is about WHITNEY. Charlie Murphy told Howard Stern that Eddie broke up with Whitney because she loved to "party too much." In her 2002 interview with Dianne Sawyer, Whitney kept calling what she loves to do "partying".

    I love this interview. Real people of God, no matter what the background story may be, they saw each other in His light instead of their own. They understood the greater being who existed on the inside. It was controversial and unfavorable for the Winans to be with Whitney, but they held their convictions against religious naysayers and was there for her when all others had forsaken, used, talked about, and given up on her. They were there till the end and celebrated her life at her home-going funeral. When you find the kindred spirit, don't let ANYONE discourage you from being with them. They unlocked each other's potential and greatest expression of themselves. That's why they instantly click. They shared purpose and destiny.
