Whitney Houston's wig passes onto the other side

The original queen of wigs has passed on and now begins her journey beyond the veil and onto the other side. Into a world where clouds are replaced by wigs, carpets are made from wigs and Whitney is granted the telekinetic ability to snatch from ones head.

Whitney Houston's passing came as a bit of a shock given that she was seemingly free from the two things which many were concerned would eventually bring her life to an end sooner than later: that crack head n***a of her husband and the drugs. Six years ago news of Whitney's death wouldn't have come as such a shock given how destructive her lifestyle was at that point. But at a time when Whitney had her shit together, it's a bit of a surprise. Although the pictures which have surfaced showing Whitney the night before are enough to make you facepalm and shake your head.

There may have been things going on behind the scenes which we were not aware of. Whitney may have been on the drugs on the down low. But sceptical thoughts aside, the real tragedy here is not that we've lost a diva or what many class as the greatest voice of their generation. It's that a daughter has lost her mother. Even in the midst of the car wreck that was Whitney and Bobby's marriage, Bobbi loved her mother and was the pillar of strength for Whitney making it through. And for Bobbi to have lived in the middle of Whitney's darkest hour and now encounter her own having to now live life without her, I can't even imagine what she must be going through.

Much like any great music icon, Whitney's successes over the past 20 years spawned a slew of chart topping, record breaking hits, and a discography making for a musical legacy which we can continue to enjoy until the end of time. Pick a moment from Whitney's career when you felt her form could not be touched and let that be your lasting memory of her.

If you love Whitney, then you'll play all of her shit up to My love is your love and leave it at that. Let's do a hoe a favour and sweep Just Whitney and I look to you under a rug.
