Whitney Houston was a true legend.
Her rich, powerful voice is adored by millions and has spawned an entire industry of gospel-influenced pop singing. She's won six Grammys and two Emmys, sold more than 20 million records worldwide, and ranks as one of the best-selling music artists in history.
Houston's career began with a modest upbringing in Newark, New Jersey. In 1981, she became the lead singer for a group called The New Edition, which was known for its popular radio hits. She soon went on to pursue a solo career and released her debut album in 1985. Over the next 30 years she would have several more No. 1 hits on the Billboard charts, including "How Will I Know," "Saving All My Love for You," and, of course, her version of Dolly Parton's "I Will Always Love You."
It would be hard to overstate the impact Houston had on the music industry throughout her career. She set records that still stand today. She holds the record as the only artist to have seven consecutive No. 1 Billboard Hot 100 hits. She has seven consecutive multi-platinum albums -- six studio albums and a soundtrack album, all released within a 10-year period. And, she was the first artist to have seven consecutive No. 1 hits and the first female artist to enter the Billboard 200 at No. 1. Whitney became known as The Voice for good reason: her vocal range made her a powerhouse even among powerhouses.
She also starred in a number of blockbuster movies, including The Bodyguard (for which she also recorded the theme song), Waiting to Exhale, The Preacher's Wife (for which she won two NAACP Image Awards), and more.
Houston's life and career have come to represent the best of a generation. Her voice, her songs and her stage presence have inspired millions around the world. Although we lost her in 2012, the magic of her presence lives on in her music.
Now, that magic is coming to a stage near you with An Evening With Whitney Houston: The Whitney Houston Hologram Concert. This immersive experience combines cutting-edge digital technology with incredible light displays and 3D sound design to create an unparalleled experience. Houston's hologram is superimposed over live dancers to give you the sensation that you're actually there with her as she performs some of her most famous songs.
This performance is a unique opportunity to celebrate one of the most iconic artists in music history. Audiences can expect an extraordinary evening that delivers all the thrilling vocals and emotions for which Whitney Houston was renowned.
The music was wonderful as expected. However the technology was magical. I soon forgot I wasn’t watching a live performance. I would gladly go again. I highly recommend!
The show was really cool. It was awesome for my kids to experience Whitney’s amazing talent in person! The hologram was very realistic and the band was amazing! I didn’t love the Queen of the Night insert after Whitney’s big ballad- she wasn’t a part of it at all and it seemed like an intentional effort to add an agenda to the show. Keep it all about Whitney!!
Brilliant… was it perfect.. Almost! It was like you wanted to go back stage after and talk to her (Whitney)!!! Highly Recommend!
Great show, highly recommend, Everyone in attendance loved the show.
By the third song, I’d forgotten she was a hologram and was enjoying being at a Whitney concert. The experience is so well done and joyous, go see for yourself and as they say, “celebrate the legacy.”
Although it's clear that's it's not actually Whitney, you can't deny her voice or the way that it made u feel when you hear it. I do think that the show could afford to make some tweaks to make the hologram a bit more convincing, the live band with help from dancers made up for it. Go for the experience. Don't go expecting to see Whitney. Also the special performance by Whitney's brother Gary was a special touch.
