Whitney Houston tribute issue

Get your 84-page NOW special copy today

The word legend is often overused, but in Whitney Houston's case it doesn't do her justice.

And when news broke of her death at the tragically young age of 48, it came as a genuine shock.

All her fans knew she'd had problems, but we hoped she'd be able to beat her demons and get back to what we loved her for: singing.

With a voice that sent tingles down the stubbornest of spines, Whitney's singles and albums owned the charts in the 80s and 90s - when she sang, the world listened.

Diva? Possibly... Legend? Definitely.

We hope you're as moved reading our tribute as we were by making it.
