Whitney Houston’s funeral will take place tomorrow in New Jersey. Aretha Franklin, Stevie Wonder and Alicia Keys will be singing and her Bodyguard co-star Kevin Costner will speak. Plans have definitely changed- it was originally supposed to be a huge public event, then it was supposed to be 100% private, now they’ll meet in the middle. One camera will be there and the service will be streamed online on the Associated Press’ website.
Finally Laid to Rest
Another sad celebrity death to report- Neil Hope- Wheels from Degrassi passed away- four years ago. For some reason we’re just finding out about this now. CBC says they wanted to respect the family’s request for privacy but Degrassi producers wanted to come out with it now. Reports say he died of natural causes- at the age of 35? So sad!
Poor Wheels!
The Simpsons will air its 500th episode Sunday night. It’s been on for 23 years, around for most of our lives- in fact, it's the same age as Adam Wylde!
Happy 500!!
