Whitney Houston Funeral: Watch the Live Online Stream

Posted: February 18, 2012

whitney-houston-funeral-online-live-streamThough Whitney Houston’s funeral will be an intimate affair, held Saturday in New Jersey’s New Hope Baptist Church, where Houston wowed the congregation with her powerful voice even as a young girl, loyal fans across the globe will be able to share in the memorial by watching along online.

According to the Washington Post, the decision to share the private service with the public online is a compromise, since so many fans wish to say goodbye to the legendary singer. Hollywood.com reports that only one camera from the Associated Press will be allowed in the church, and the service will begin at 12:00pm EST on Saturday, February 18.

Watch the Whitney Houston funeral live stream below (beginning at noon):

Other sites that will be streaming Whitney Houston funeral are as follows:

CNN will air the funeral live starting at 11:30 a.m. ET/8:30 PT. Piers Morgan, Soledad O’Brien, and Don Lemon will anchor the network’s coverage, which will start at 11 a.m.

E! News will be hosting a special report, Whitney Houston: The Funeral, at 11:30 a.m. ET/8:30 PT, USA Today reports. The network will also be posting live updates to its Twitter feed, and will simulcast their network coverage.

Finally, many radio stations will be airing hour-long tributes to Houston, and taking calls from fans.

It’s been confirmed that “nearly a dozen celebrities and personalities – including Chaka Khan, Diane Warren, Rev. Jesse Jackson, Darlene Love, Antonio “L.A.” Reid, Ray J and Brandy to name a few – will be in some of the 1,500 coveted, ‘invitation-only’ seats.” It was reported earlier this week that Bobby Brown would not be allowed at the funeral but Houston’s former husband denied the report.

Gospel singer Marvin L. Winans, a longtime family friend of Houston’s, will give the eulogy and Aretha Franklin and Stevie Wonder are expected to perform musical tributes.

If you’re looking for some comfort and closure: gather your tissues, hop on your computer, and pay homage to the great Houston alongside some of her biggest supporters and fellow legendary voices.

Readers let us know: Will you be tuning in to watch Whitney Houston’s funeral later this afternoon?

  2. Whitney Houston, you will be MISSED. You have gave this world such a joy just to hear your voice and your leaving makes us all so sad…….I hope your daughter will be the next Whitney. Rest in PEACE.

  3. Strange how Smoking crack did not kill her. It was a benzodiazapine. Take notice people. It's become rampant. Dr.s aren't warning you on the long term usage or the "dependent" nature of these. I would know. I used 1mg of Klonopin for 7 years for insomnia. Did not abuse it. I got down to 1/2 mg. Unable to go any further. Did 4 hospital stays, 10 ER visits just to get off the 1/2 mg. Coming off it has been debilitating. I never thought I would get my life back. I am now 7 months off the klonopin. I have survived this. Whitney and thousand of of Post traumatic Stress disorder vets did not. Comments welcome. Awareness is NEEDED. IT"S RAMPANT. KLONOPIN, XANAX AND VALIUM AND ALL BENZO SLEEP AID user's take notice!

    "I will always Love you"! If anyone reading this doubts the power of addiction and how difficult the transformation can be, this is a tragic example of what self destructive behavior does to the human spirit of greatness. As one of the most talented female recording artists of our day, gifted with a voice and blessed with so much, all of us should stop for a minute and realize just how fragile life can be. My prayers to her family and loved ones. God created it, Clive Davis discovered it, and the Devil took it away. May the Lord God have mercy on her soul.

    "Hollywood.com reports that only one camera from the Associated Press will be allowed in the church, and the service will begin at 12:00pm EST on Saturday, February18" I guess they're wrong: "CNN will air the funeral live starting at 11:30 a.m. ET/8:30 PT. Piers Morgan, Soledad O’Brien, and Don Lemon will anchor the network’s coverage, which will start at 11 a.m".

    don't watch it

  9. Being a recovering addict who was going down the same road Whitney did it was time for me to make a choice, did I want to live or die because that's where I was heading. Me and whitney were born tne same year. I just celebrated my one year sobriety but, I didn't do it on my own. She didn't want to admit she was an addict which was the first thing you need to realize and admit to. She had so many people around her all the time but, why nobody took control over what she was doing they just let her do her thing. they should all feel responsible for her death. They knew what she was doing.

  10. I'm thankful that cissy allowed this to be broadcast for the fans! I find it very loving and caring for the true fans.those commenting on her drug issues should be ashamed! My god it's her funeral :( find an appropriate time and place to comment

    GOD BLESSED WHITNEY WITH A BEAUTIFUL VOICE. SHE HAS NOW GONE TO A PLACE WHERE SHE CAN REJOICE. SHES AT A PLACE WHERE GOD WANTS HER TO BE. SHES HAPPY TO BE IN HEAVEN AMONGST THOSE WHO SHARE HER MELODIC SIMILARITIES AND BELIEFS. SHES NO LONGER MINGLING AT PARTIES OF THE WORLD. SHES SINGING, SMILING AND DANCING HER WAY RIGHT INTO THE PEARLY GATES OF HEAVEN. WHERE SHE WILL ORCHESTRATE THE SINGING ANGELS. I CANT WAIT TO GET TO HEAVEN. TO GET MY FRONT ROW SEAT. TO HEAR YOUR VOICE AGAIN. I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU WHITNEY HOUSTON!

    Whitney, you were "Waiting to Exhale" and trying to figure out "Why Does It Hurt So Bad". In spite of it all, you really wanted that "One Moment in Time" where somebody could say "Count on Me" and really mean it. So…in your process of "Getting to Happy", you turned to God and said "I Look to You" and He replied "I Will Always Love You". Now, you are experiencing "The Greatest Love of All". You can finally close your eyes and exhale…

  14. I as well as several of my sibling's have or are currently using either Klonopin or Xanax for panic disorder as it is rampant in our family….Sorry to say but dependancy does depend on the person, wether or not they have an addictive behavior…My oldest sister has been on Xanax for 27 year's, there was a period where she was overloaded with work and missed her Dr. appt., she went 3 week's without the Xanax with no ill effect's….I have had to go without it as well and no effect's or withdrawals….The bottom line is, if it was not necessary that it be taken, then there can be problems…My doctor has explained to me if you take it and it is prescribed for the wrong reason, there can be problems in stopping the medicine…Everyone of mysibling's as well as I have had to go without it at some time or another, and I am positive that if we had to longterm, there would be no problem, as I have currently been without mine for 4 month's due to lack of insurance…Sound's like to me it was prescribed to you for insomnia, when you actually should have been prescribed something else, as Klonopin & Xanax both are not sleep-aids!

    Thanks for leaving your songs and movies your art will never be forgotten. Rip.

  19. A live-blog of someone's funeral is not only tacky, it's grotesquely inappropriate—who the hell needs a play-by-play of "what's goin' down" at Whitney's funeral?

    LOVE YOU OMAR!

  21. I could not go down unless I had it due to high anxiety. Anxiety was the cause of the insomnia. And yes, at 1 mg nightly it became a HUGE problem. I did not abuse it. I tried many times to get off it but would end up in the ER. After the merry go round of trying to get off it myself. I went to detox, Spent 4 hospital stays, 10 ER visits, and several ambulance rides. To get off 1/2 mg. I had long term usage. Seven years. It was the most horrific experience of my life. Today. Seven months later I have nerve pain and battle the pillow.

  22. Tammy most all sleep aids are BENZOS. Study your drugs girl. They are under other names. But they most 100% are BENZO's too. Even Ambien is a class called Z. It is a close relative of benzos and not recommended to detox pt.s of benzos. I have studied these drugs for seven straight months. I know what I'm talking about!

  23. I was only taking in the end 1/2 mg nightly. No abuse. Became "dependent". Even at the lowest dose causes horrific withdrawals. I would know. I suffered GREATLY. Most all sleep remedies are BENZO"S. Ativan, restoril, Halcion etc… Even Ambien is a class z drug not recommended to Benzo Detox patients. It's a "sister" drug of benzo with many chemical components too close. All Benzo's are addictive. They say four weeks on one you are hooked. Only when used for occasional panic attacks is the individual able to stop abruptly without risk of seizures, rolling attacks, risk of death.
