‘Glee’ Tributes Whitney Houston As Amber Riley Performs “I Will Always Love You”
It’s just been days since news broke of Whitney Houston’s death, and we already have a large handful of wonderful covers of “I Will Always Love You”. Jennifer Hudson, LeAnn Rimes and Aretha Franklin all paid tribute to Houston by performing the ballad, and by pure coincidence, Glee had planned Amber Riley to sing Whitney’s hit single for their Valentine’s Day episode. Watch her belt out the number below.
The show dedicated the episode, “Heart”, to Houston by adding a final title card at the end credits: “Whitney Houston 1963-2012. We will always love you.”
What do you think of Amber’s performance? Are there any other Whitney Houston songs you’d like to hear covered in honor of her legacy? Sound off below.
