A new report says Whitney died quietly by drowning in a hotel bathroom, and she was surrounded by pill bottles — how sad.
Whitney Houston‘s sudden death has shocked the world, and now new details are emerging about her tragic final hours.
Whitney, who was 48, allegedly died by drowning in her bathtub at the Beverly Hilton hotel, TMZ reports. Additionally, there were prescription drugs present in the room, although nothing illegal has been found as of yet.
Whitney famously battled drug addiction, along with her famous ex Bobby Brown.
Further details will soon emerge, as she’s taken for an autopsy at the morgue.
We wish her family the best during this difficult time.

Whitney is dead and is in hell. Repent from your sins. Accept Jesus christ as your lord and personal saviour. Leave prostitution, drinking, smoking and nightclubbing. These are bad habits. Turn to Jesus whitney loved life and debauchery. Choose eternal life. Stop adoring Whitney. Stop idolizing Whitney. Stop smoking and drinking. Whitney polluted the minds of people through her immoral lifestyle. Do not follow her footsteps if you do not want to go to hell.

Loved her, but on the dark side, I can’t wait to see the autopsy pics. I’m sure we’ll be seeing them. Anyone want to comment please do, but realize one thing…It is the pressure that is put on people who want to be famous to succeed no matter what the cost. That is how people with artistic talent like her get hooked on drugs, alcohol, and fame. Many are focused on one thing, success, not living on a balanced life. I doubt she wanted to die, she just wanted that moment, that one moment in time, that faded away long ago, but she just couldn’t let it go and move on. So my first statement is sick and a toast to the entertainment industry. This one is for you, coming together in tribute after her death…where were you when you put her and the likes of her thru the gauntlet to get that “one moment in time” that is treasured that someone like Whitney, who had the gifts of beauty, talent, and charisma, the “it” factor was left unsatisfied with her self once she achieved it. She had it all before the fame, but she died wanting you the entertainment industry to be pleased, because you built this fantasy world that deluded her into thinking she was something less than she actually was. Here’s to you, THE ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY and yes, to us, the fans that keep feeding this monster to satisfy our own pathetic lives. Oh, did I mention, I too feel somewhat less than who I’m actually am, which is actually ok, because I bite the chocolate cake (metaphorically) sometimes and believe your stuff.
