Newark, New Jersey: The Birthplace of a Legend
So, where was this voice from heaven born? Drumroll, please... Newark, New Jersey! Yep, the Garden State was blessed with the presence of a little girl destined for greatness. Who would have thought that a city known for its hustle and bustle would produce such a delicate, soulful voice?
Whitney wasn't just born into any family; she was born into a musical dynasty. Her mom, Cissy Houston, was a gospel legend, and her cousin was none other than Dionne Warwick. So, you could say that singing was in her blood, like really, really in her blood. It's like she was genetically engineered to blow us away with those vocals.
Tip: Take your time with each sentence.
From Church Choir to Global Superstar
Whitney started singing in her church choir, which is pretty much the standard issue backstory for most legendary singers. But let's be real, not everyone who sings in a church choir ends up filling stadiums. Whitney had that something extra. That X factor. That "I'm-gonna-make-you-believe-I-can-fly" kind of voice.
From church choir to backup singer to solo superstar, Whitney's journey is nothing short of inspiring. But let's not forget, it all started in the heart of New Jersey. So, the next time you're driving through Newark, take a moment to appreciate the fact that you're in the same city where a legend was born.
