It looks as though Gospel Icons Yolanda Adams and CeCe Winans will pay tribute to their beloved friend during the TV special “We Will Always Love You: A Grammy Salute To Whitney Houston,” airing Friday, Nov. 16 (10 – 11 p.m. ET/PT) on CBS.
The Grammy Award winning singers who both were close to Whitney will join Celine Dion, Jennifer Hudson and Usher for the one-hour special, to be filmed on Thursday, Oct. 11 at Nokia Theatre L.A. LIVE.
The show will celebrate Houston’s life and artistry through performances and interviews with various artists paying homage to the six-time Grammy winner, and will include Houston’s own most memorable performances of her career, including nearly all of her Grammy performances, her classic performance of the national anthem at Super Bowl XXV in 1991 and her first-ever television appearance on “The Merv Griffin Show” in the early ‘80s.
The special will also feature other artists sharing their memories of Houston, as well as additional highlights of her career.
