Beyoncé Knowles: give Whitney Houston a break, it’s hard at the top

Beyoncé Knowles has revealed she has nothing but sympathy for Whitney Houston because life at the top of the music business is so hard.

Whitney is currently recording a comeback album after reportedly going through rehab and therapy to get over her drug addiction and the breakdown of her marriage to Bobby Brown.

Beyoncé said recently: “I once queued for Whitney’s autograph when I was a kid. I had her photograph pinned up inside my wall and thought she was the very best around.”

“I think it’s very easy to get yourself into trouble [like Whitney did]. We live an unrealistic life in a crazy world. The demands are huge and the fallout can be equally big.”

“You can get swept along by events. It is very hard for a woman in the music business to maintain a long term career. There are demands you cannot even begin to imagine.”

Even though I am not a superstar, I can agree and say that superstars are humans and humans make mistakes everyday. Anyones life is hard no matter where you sit in the world. When I was little and now and probably forever more I feel in love with Whitney Houston. It seemed like she had to feel every thing she was singing, and expressed all her emotions through her voice. Whitney is the best and no matter what obstacles she face I will alway love her as her number 1 fan.
