Whitney Houston: The Movie Mogul You Didn't Know Existed
Let's talk about Whitney Houston. No, not her iconic voice or those legendary ballads. We're diving deep into the less glamorous side of her career: movies. Because apparently, singing wasn't enough for this woman.
The Bodyguard: A Career-Defining... Film?
Now, before we get carried away, let’s clarify something: Whitney Houston was a singer who dabbled in acting. She didn’t exactly set the silver screen ablaze with her thespian skills. But hey, who can blame her? The spotlight was her natural habitat.
That being said, The Bodyguard is a monument in its own right. Not for the stellar acting, but for the soundtrack. That movie was basically a 90-minute music video with a plot thrown in for good measure. And let’s be honest, we all watched it for “I Will Always Love You” anyway.
The Waiting Game
After the success (or should we say, phenomenal soundtrack) of The Bodyguard, Whitney starred in another film called Waiting to Exhale. This one was a bit of a departure from her action-packed bodyguard role. It was more like, waiting for the movie to end. But hey, it had a great cast and some decent drama.
The Final Count: How Many Whitney Houston Movies Are There?
So, how many movies did Whitney bless (or curse) with her presence? Well, brace yourselves, because this number might surprise you. There are actually nine feature films with Whitney Houston in them. Nine! That’s more movies than some actual actors have.
We’re talking everything from romantic comedies to dramas. It’s like Whitney was on a mission to conquer every genre, one bad movie at a time.
But let's be real. Whitney was a singing sensation, not a cinematic masterpiece. Her legacy lies in her music, not her acting chops. So let’s celebrate her for the incredible artist she was, and maybe give her a pass on the acting career.
