During a concert this week at the Palladium in Hollywood, singer Lauryn Hill took a few moments to reflect on the passing of Whitney Houston saying:
“Aren’t you tired of losing our people?” Hill asked the crowd. “I am. Love your artists. When they falter, hold them accountable. But love them. People are now showing Whitney Houston the love and respect she should have received throughout her career — through all of it.”
“I’m in transition still,” Hill continued to share with her fans. “Be patient with me. New is coming.”
Powerful!

she’s right.
I concur!!!!!
She’s right. MJ and Whitney Houston could’ve used the love we all displayed when they died.
FOH with this bullshit. jackson and houston were loved by MILLIONS before they died. MJ by BILLIONS.
whatever their demons, it wasn’t because there wasn’t enough love.
Agreed!
Lauryn..I love you. I mean it.
that last sentence ” new is coming”
gives me the chills
I was at that show and unfortunately it was a far less emotional moment than what this post makes it out to be. Lauryn didn’t put her heart into it. I was sad because I am a huge fan and have loved and supported her throughout her career. Very disappointed in the show Lauryn. I wish you all the best- please remember that your fans deserve love too. We come out, pay our hard earned money in the recession to see you. Don’t rush through it for the rest of the tour, please
xoxo
Wow… thanks for that counter.
i believe in laurn because i’ve seen her in concert twice before all the other “things” started going on so i’m hoping she’s on the rise…
I wish people would stop saying that people didn’t care about Whitney. I can’t stand the saying, “They don’t care about you until your gone.” It’s so not true. Stop generalizing everybody because I know a lot of people were effected by her death and knew her impact on this world.
