Whitney Houston’s Private Funeral Will Be Streamed Live Online

» 12 comments

Though the plans for a public memorial service for Whitney Houston were cancelled, fans will still be able to see the funeral.

The private ceremony, which will be held the singer’s hometown of Newark, NJ, will be streamed live, according to an announcement from Houston’s publicist Kristen Foster — as a way for fans to grieve and pay their respects.

Mediaite will have the live streaming on Saturday. A few satellite providers will also be carrying it.

    This is pretty much the opposite of “private.”

    …Streamed Live Online. Why? Wonder how much AP gets out of the deal, how much are ads going for? Will they be pop ups? I bet the Geico salamander wants to get in on this one.

    I think that I’ll skip it, but hey, thanks for the heads up.

    The ghoulish, sleazebag liberals are hoping for a Whitney Houston-funeral  “wardrobe malfunction”.
    We have all seen their vile mentalities here at Mediaite.

    You when ur a human with a mentally of a peanut u tend to look at things people do and be inconsiderate that there are others that love an individual unconditionally are not responsible for the way that person lived I have heard so many unsympathetic individuals that have said some really bad things about Whitney Houston and the way she lived, have respect for her family and friends and milllions of fans that loved her for her contribution of one of the most beautiful Black vocal singers that walk the earth u never know what road u will have to go down before u go home. Her mother is still alive and she is a very nice and respectable female have some compassion and empathy for others that don’t make u look good just rude.

    Whitney Houston confessed to Diane Sawyer that she was the devil. She also stated in that interview that she was a child of God. That’s very confusing. You have to be one or the other.www.Hear-The-Truth.com

    They should have had a memorial for the public, and a private funeral for close family and friends. Having a live streaming of a private funeral is not appropriate.

    That is true. I think they mean there will be no fans or media in the church, just a live streaming. I think they should have had a private funeral with no camera and just had a memorial for the fans and public. I think people who actually knew whitney should be able to grieve privately without the media.

     yes like elvis presley fat junkie ass, or walt disney racist cochead ass. people flock to them as if they were jesus. Whitney was a human being who made mistakes and she deserves the same respect as you gave your mother’s drunken brother when he died.
