Jennifer Hudson will honor the legendary Whitney Houston during tonight's Grammy Awards ceremony. Houston, who was found dead last night at the Beverly Hills Hilton, had a talent that was unsurpassed in the music industry, but in recent years, Hudson has seemed the heir apparent. If there is a more perfect person to honor Houston, it is hard to imagine.

Though, the song Hudson will sing has yet to be revealed, my guess is "I Will Always Love You." It is a perfect choice and one Hudson performed in front of Whitney herself to Houston's great pleasure. See below:

Whitney Houston had a talent for the ages. Now dead at 48, it is easy to look back and see the places where she went so wrong -- her drug addictions, her drinking, her tumultuous marriage and bad choices. But to look at her in the 1980's and early 1990's is to remember a different Whitney.

The fact is, it was not JUST her addictions that hurt Whitney. The kind of fame she had -- adoring, all consuming -- leads to enormous pressure. The fact that she could not always handle that fame on her own is hardly unusual. Her death is an absolute tragedy.

Does anyone remember her performance of the National Anthem in 1991? It was soon after Desert Storm started at the Super Bowl in Tampa, Florida. Her voice electrified the nation and has become the gold standard against which all National Anthem performances are judged.

Whitney Houston, the singer who defined many 80's childhoods, is dead at the age of 48. Her body was found at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Los Angeles and the news is shocking the music world just one night before the Grammys.

In recent years, Whitney's regal voice and perfect image have been ravaged by drugs, a habit she just could not break. So while many of us could have seen it coming, it does not make it any less sad.

Houston was the reigning queen of pop for many years and over the course of her career, she won two Emmy Awards, six Grammy Awards, 30 Billboard Music Awards, and 22 American Music Awards. She has sold 200 million albums world wide.

Sadly, in recent years, she was best known for her stormy marriage to Bobby Brown, which lasted for 15 years. And, of course, her drug addiction, which led to publicly erratic behavior and some weird moments. But for those of us who were children of the 1980's, this is how we best remember her:

Chelsea Handler has always proven herself to be a brave and hilarious comedian, unafraid of offending people or turning them off with her "this is me, deal with it" brand of humor. But she took that to a whole other level this week when she went on the Rosie O'Donnell Show and admitted -- with no apology or remorse -- that she had an abortion at 16 and had no regrets. It was brave and smart and highly commendable. Those people who regularly watch Teen Mom on MTV could also learn a few things from it.

The fact is, there ARE other choices out there and if MTV does not show them, then it is good someone else does.

Even more shocking, though, was her admission that SHE wanted the baby and that it was, in fact, her parents who talked some sense into her. She explained:

Beyonce and Jay-Z are already proving they are loving parents (and good celebrities). Rather than making a gazillion dollars cashing in on their baby daughter's birth, Beyonce and husband Jay-Z decided to release the photos of their new daughter Blue Ivy, just 1-month-old, in their own way -- on a Tumblr account.

It's a highly unusual move that may become a new trend for celebrities who are typically very private until they release a photo spread in People or Us Magazine or some similar move. These photos seem intimate and private and also included a message for fans.

Me and my boyfriend Han -- he hates photos!As part of my recent all Star Wars weekend* with my son in which we visited Skywalker Ranch and LucasArts and saw a sneak peek at Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace 3D, I have to say I went into a complete and utter Star Wars mania geekout. I couldn't get enough!

I mean, how surreal is it for a former kid of the 1970s to have Stormtroopers holding the door for you and R2-D2 leading you to the loo. I swear to God I started twirling my hair nervously into Princess Leia buns while trying to shake anxiety sweats from the surges in my Midi-chlorian count.

So I just gotta share some of the best moments from our trip -- because it was a total trip, indeed. It was a Star Wars memorabilia dream. Check it out.

Pretty much the ONLY person on the Internet who didn't weigh in this week on M.I.A. throwing the bird during her performance with Madonna at the Super Bowl half-time show was Madonna herself. But that all changed Friday morning when the Material Girl herself candidly told Ryan Seacrest what she thought of the flip-off.

Guess what. Madonna wasn't happy. Here's what she said about it:

The reviews for The Vow are in, and it looks like Rachel McAdams and Channing Tatum have mad chemistry. And it's a good thing, too. Because to hear the critics tell it, if it weren't for that chemistry, we might start wondering if Channing Tatum is actually just a computer-generated vision of manliness and not an actual human being.

Oh my, the consensus seems to be that Channing is not exactly what we could call an ACT-OR, as such. Poor Channing, what are you doing in this role as a bohemian type in the first place? It's like he's a Greco-Roman wrestler in a movie about Greco-Roman wrestling who suffered a tragic head injury and wanders away only to find himself in the wrong movie, wearing a pork pie hat. And he can't remember where he really belongs!
