Christina sings Whitney
Pop star Christina Aguilera takes the stage today (Monday morning in Manila) at the American Music Awards, to pay tribute to the late music icon Whitney Houston, as part of the 25th anniversary of the screen musical, “The Bodyguard.”
Which songs from “The Bodyguard” soundtrack will Christina sing? Although the set list isn’t expected to be released prior to the show, short clips from various users’ Instagram Stories showed the singer rehearsing “I Will Always Love You,” “Run to You,” “I Have Nothing” and “I’m Every Woman.”
“To be honoring the one and only Whitney Houston is a blessing, and I’m grateful to celebrate the spirit of her songs. Her legend lives on,” she said in a statement. “Her graciousness, generosity, humanity and beauty lived up to everything I could have hoped for in meeting my idol.”—ALLAN POLICARPIO
