Whitney Houston in Comedy

Whitney Houston appeared in a funny comedy sketch on SNL in 1996, alongside Will Farrel, Penny Marshall and Rosie O'Donnel. Whitney was natural for comedy because she made comedy around those that loved her in real life. Whitney could make people laugh and appeared to be a fun person.

Cissy Houston: Whitney Couldn't Lip - Synch

It never appeared to me that Whitney lip - synch singing the Star Spangled Banner. In chapter 10 of Cissy's book, Remembering Whitney, Cissy said that Whitney was like her. She couldn't lip - synch. Whitney couldn't keep time with a song unless she was really singing it, and at the Super Bowl, you could tell looking at her that she was singing the whole time. I believe Whitney's mom. It certainly did look as if Whitney was singing the whole time to me.

Cissy: When she hit that final note, and then the jets flew overhead, I can't imagine there was a dry eye in that stadium.
