Angela Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 I honestly was disappointed with Whitney's sister-in-law and Clive Davis giving their speeches. The sister-in-law sounded like she was at the Grammys as she was thanking everyone on Whitney's team, and she was going on about Whitney's troubles. Just STFU about that shit right now. And Clive was the most disappointing to me. He's known Whitney for like 30 years, but he gave just about the most impersonal speech. It sounded like he was reminiscing of all the times Whitney made him some money. It wasn't until the end that he gave any kind of personal stories. Kevin Costner surprised me with his speech and I gained a whole new level of respect for him. I think he had the favorite tribute for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angela Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Whitney, Bobby, and Bobbi Kristina went out to eat like a week and a half before Whitney died. How in the hell was there a falling out right after? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cnd Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Kevin's speech was so touching and beautiful. Towards the end you could see he was going to lose it but he held it together. And I agree about Clive's - his speech was disappointing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dungeon Dragon Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 I honestly do not understand why Kevin costner was asked to be there ? I know he made a film with Whitney but I just didn't see the relevance in him being there. I'm sure there were people closer to Whitney who would have wanted to speak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure there were people closer to Whitney who would have wanted to speak Her FIRST film, excellent reason to be there. Not to mention it had to be obvious how much he loved her. I mean LOVED her. I, for one, love the fact he was there and was asked to speak. His words were the best part. I also doubt there were people who were told they couldn't speak in place of him.

Reyna â™” Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 did he ask ? I thought they asked him to come He wanted to go anyway, and they sent him an invitation. As far as how he was aligned to speak, I'm not sure who made that call and how. However, I do know that anyone who really wanted to speak and had a good relationship with her would have been allowed, knowing the family. But also with what went on, I think there were some who may have wanted to speak but were too broken up to go through with it. It was her funeral after all.

bu. Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Alicia was clearly sad. Her nose was red from crying. Some of you say stoopid things . I'm sure Alicia and Whitney had a lot of encounters since they have Clive in common and Whitney touched everybody she encountered. I didn't really listen to Clives speech. Sorry but old people talk SO slow. from the bits I saw I was like . I like that Whitney liked hamburgers though. You know whats funny...Kevin Costner was the last person i was looking forward to hearing from as I thought "meh they worked together once so what could he possibly say" but his speech was by far one of the best (along with that Bebe Winans one). This is the first time I've ever seen a real non-Islamic funeral. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
