On the eve of Whitney Houston’s long awaited comeback, “TV One Access” takes an eventful journey through the life and times of one of music’s best selling artists of all time with “The Return of Whitney Houston.”
“The Return of Whitney Houston” is an hour-long special produced by Access Hollywood’s urban entertainment news program, “TV One Access.” The special premieres Sunday, September 13, 2009 (check local listings) on cable’s TV One.
Houston, whose new album entitled “I Look To You” is available now, discusses her triumphs and tragedies as well as her return to the music industry. “TV One Access” chronicles everything from Houston’s childhood and her battle with addiction to her tumultuous relationship with former husband, music artist Bobby Brown.
“No other African-American singer has made an impact in both music and film like Whitney Houston, so we had been counting down the moments until the release of her much anticipated new album,” says Monique Chenault, Senior Producer, “TV One Access.” “As we hoped and expected, Whitney is back on top and this very special show celebrates her resilient talent as well as her inspiring, personal story of triumph over tragedy.”
Houston, who had taken a hiatus from the music industry to take time for herself and her daughter, said that when she told her daughter, Bobbi Kristina, that she was going to do another album, Bobbi Kristina was very supportive. Clive Davis, Houston’s longtime mentor, also discusses his friendship with Houston and the role he played in her return to music.
The special wouldn’t be complete without a look at all of the success and influence Houston has had within the music industry as well as her lucrative acting career.
