Whitney Houston’s AMA performance is sure to be one for the books, especially since it will be her first time performing at the event in ten years. For live video stream of the ceremony, check out our sister site Right Celebrity on Sunday, November 22. Read more below.
The iconic diva will take the stage at the American Music Awards this weekend. The ‘I Will Always Love You ‘ singer will perform her latest single ‘I Didn’t Know My Own Strength,’ which should make for a truly magnificent moment in the awards show’s history.
Whitney Houston is the all-time leader of female performers in awards (21) and nominations (37) received from the AMA’s. Wow, What colossal numbers!
So if you guessed that they are thrilled to have the American singer, actress, and fashion model back you are correct. Here’s what the show’s producer Larry Klein had to say about Houston:
“We’re honored to have Whitney Houston back on the AMA stage after 10 years.”
He then went on to exclaim that she is “without a doubt an international superstar” and that the bestowal of the “International Artist award this year” is appropriate - We certainly agree Mr. Klein - Readers, how about you?
Other acts set to perform are Rihanna, Shakira, Jay-Z, Alicia Keys, Jennifer Lopez and The Black Eyed Peas. What a star-studded line up!
The International Artist Award is a rarity and has only been handed out seven times over the events’ 36-year run. The other recipients include greats such as Michael Jackson, Led Zeppelin, Rod Stewart, Bee Gees, Aerosmith, Beyonce Knowles, and Madonna.

Will Whitney houston perform live or will she lip sync or will her voice be overdubbed and many back up singers to hide her notes.
If she cannot perform without lip syncing then she should not perfom.

You obviously don’t know Whitney. She has never lip synced and when she was unwell she told the crowd the truth and didn’t sing instead of lying and lip-syncing.
The Voice All prevails

Please! Whitney was the best of the night! No shock value or controversy, just pure talent. Power, soul, emotion, and grit. She was radiant. There’s nothing more beautiful than a woman aging gracefully! I hope the so-called artists of my generation were taking some serious notes!
