Whitney Houston fans hold vigil outside Whigham Funeral HomeWhitney Houston wasn't the first celebrity to suffer a sudden and tragic death, but it looks like she'll be the first celebrity whose funeral is streamed live on the Internet. Apparently Houston's publicist has chosen one person who will be allowed inside New Jersey's New Hope Baptist Church -- the church where Houston sang as a child -- to broadcast the service live.

One person who will allow millions of fans a way to participate in an incredibly personal grieving process.

On the one hand, the idea to stream the funeral live could be interpreted as a gesture of appreciation for all those who loved Whitney Houston's music. The message: Houston's fans were part of her family.

Still, I can't help but wonder ... how will Whitney's real family feel about sharing such a private moment with the world?

If you're a Chris Brown fan, there's nothing that says I love you on Valentine's Day like seeing a tweet from one of your fave men telling you to "F!@* Off!" The Grammy Award winner for Best R&B Album gave a little bit of a Twitter tantrum yesterday, when he posted a series of ranty posts ending with one bold statement:

"HATE ALL U WANT BECUZ I GOT A GRAMMY Now! That's the ultimate F!@* OFF!"

Welp, looks like someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed the whole past year yesterday. The 22-year-old has since deleted the tweets. 

Sigh. This is the perfect example: just because you've deleted something off Twitter doesn't mean it's actually gone.

Shakira usually flies under the radar, at least here in the States. Meaning we don't hear about her doing anything wacky or risque a la Britney Spears or Kim Kardashian. Heck no! She's a class act. But the latest Shaki story to hit the news cycle has made it seem like her blonde dye job (we all know the Colombian beauty is a natural brunette, right?) has gone to her head. The singer shared on Facebook that she had an unfortunate run-in with a sea lion while vacationing in Cape Town, Africa.

As the story goes, she was attempting to photograph a group of the animals and "decided to get a bit closer than all of the other tourists and went down to a rock trying to pet them." Oh no ... you see where this is going, right?

The relationship between two of Tinseltown’s beautiful people has skidded into that special place in hell where bitter old love affairs go: scathing post-breakup hatred. In their latest installment of off-screen drama, Gabriel Aubrey has been investigated for child endangerment after he allegedly pushed the nanny while she was holding his daughter, and Halle Berry’s petitioning to move to France, which will make her joint custody arrangement conveniently inconvenient for her ex. Checkmate.

I, for one, think Halle needs to take a breather from romance. Just to get her head together. She hasn’t even gotten her old house in order and made respectable arrangements with ol’ Gabe and she’s off and running with a new dude, supposedly engaged to Olivier Martinez. (Which is also interesting since she swore up and down on several occasions that she’d never get married again. Eh, who can figure it out?)

So, you thought Nicki Minaj's over-the-top performance at the Grammys was a ridiculous spectacle that only buried her talent under crazy costumes and special effects? Yeah ... I'd probably agree with you there. But was it sacrilegious? Eh, I don't think so.

Plenty of people did find the "Roman Reloaded" performance offensive. But I thought it was pretty tame, actually. The Church plays the same role it always does: A moral authority threatened by "evil." What's so controversial about that?

Wow. Adele has got it goin' ON! At least that was my reaction after watching the 23-year-old sing her Song of the Year "Rolling in the Deep" at last night's 54th Grammy Awards. After a lengthy hiatus because of vocal cord microsurgery, the world watched in amazement as the singer took home all six Grammys she was nominated for, including Album of the Year for 21 and Record of the Year for "Rolling in the Deep."

You know what I say? Power to her. There's no arguing that a big part of last night's show was paying tribute to Whitney Houston. However, last night was Adele's night. My favorite part? With Adele, everything you see is what you get, and we love her anyway. She's a woman who swears like a sailor, can't stop writing about uber depressing episodes of heartbreak, and sings like an angel. If you ask me, Adele is one of the most real artists in music today, and THAT'S why her 2012 Grammy performance was the best of the night.

Watch it, here:

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:

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:
