Whitney Houston, did you want to marry Michael Jackson?
Whitney Houston wanted to marry Michael Jackson, revealed music producer David Gest, a close friend of both stars, to the British newspaper The Sun.
"She loved Michael very much and he adored her. Michael told me that once they kissed passionately, and she told me that once she was madly in love with him," Gest said in an interview.
"I think she really wanted to marry Michael, but even though he was also in love with her, he was very shy. Later, Michael confessed to me that he regretted not having tried anything with her. If they had ended up together, I think Whitney never would have used drugs. "
Singers Meat Loaf and Mariah Carey, who were close friends with the "I Will Always Love You" singer, spoke about their memories of the diva.
Mariah, who performed the song "When You Believe" together with Whitney, spoke on Good Morning America about her feelings about her friend's death.
"I am unable to speak well about this yet, it is something very emotionally heavy. She was someone incredible and I don't think people can understand the relationship we had. At the beginning there was a certain rivalry between us, but after we made our duet we became friends, "she said during the morning show.
The singer also spoke about Whitney's funeral, which she attended on Saturday along with other celebrities including Kevin Costner, Alicia Keys and Stevie Wonder.
"It was beautiful, the way they brought her out and how the family behaved. It was very moving. I loved her, we all loved her, may she rest in peace, her legend will continue forever," added Mariah.
Meanwhile, rocker Meat Loaf, who was also close friends with Whitney, said he was angry and shocked by some comments he had read on the Internet about the death of the singer.
"After she died I was watching TV, reading articles and comments about her and they were horrible. I wanted to go out and strangle these people. These people are rude and that is the fault of the Government. One person says something and everyone else follows him like sheep, we should censor them, "said the" Bat Out of Hell "interpreter during an interview with Britain's Daily Express.
Meat also spoke about the moment he met Whitney.
"The first time I saw her was in London and we talked for 45 minutes. Three years later we met again and I felt a connection, although we really didn't go out that much together."
