Whitney Houston's Funeral: "Totally Opposite" of Michael Jackson's

With Whitney Houston's funeral a couple of hours away, it's no surprise that final plans and preparations are beginning to take shape.


Not only do we have the confirmed list of who will be taking part in the service, but we also have details on how the New Hope Baptist Church is being transformed for the day.


The program will include Kevin Cosner, Aretha Franklin, Tyler Perry, Stevie Wonder, Rickey Minor,Alicia Keys, Dionne Warwick, Clive Davis and gospel singers CeCe Winans, Kim Burrell and Donnie McClurkin. The Rev. Marvin Winans will deliver the eulogy.


As previously reported, the funeral will be private and invite-only. Celebrities will enter through one side of the Newark, N.J., church while family and friends will come through another. They're expecting 1,500 people to be there, so it's going to be tight.
While Houston's death is often compared to that of Michael Jackson's, her family wants nothing like the spectacle that surrounded the King of Pop's funeral. A family source said, “Look we've given Whitney to the world our whole lives. This is going to be her final resting and we want her to go out with her family and friends and for it to be a celebration of her life."
Sounds like the perfect plan to us. Whatdyathink?
