Houston - We Have a Problem

altAfter a series of disastrous concerts in Britain earlier this year, Whitney Houston apparently bombed in Copenhagen last weekend - appearing bloated and sweating up a storm. Hundreds of Houston fans were said to have walked out of the Copenhagen concert, due to her tepid voice and lame performance and some even asked for a refund.

Thomas Soie Hansen, a Danish music critic at the Berlingske Tidende said Houston "...looked and sounded like a person who doesn't have many years left to live. At the end of the show, she looked like she was ready to explode."

Her career and personal life has been marred by drug addiction, divorce and legal problems, despite being being a best-selling musical artist, and for two years, in 2004 and 2005, she spent the better part of her life in rehab for substance abuse.

Houston is currently on a European tour, called Nothing But Love, will also make stops in Sweden and Finland.
