Whitney Houston's Birmingham performance panned by critics, fans. Word across the pond is that Whitney Houston just can't hack it.
The latest problem to plague the iconic pop singer: rotten tomato reviews of her return to Britain, where she performed last night for the first time in 11 years.
“Houston, we still have a problem" quipped British tabloid The Sun in its review of the 46-year-old diva's concert in Birmingham, adding, “It was not the performance fans were hoping for."
Houston's off-key, seemingly breathless rendition of “I Will Always Love You" was panned by British papers and concert patrons alike.
“I was waiting for the Trading Standards guys to call a halt and offer us our money back. It was a con, a rip off. It wasn't a concert," a fan told Britain's Daily Mail.
Of course, along with the lows, Houston's had herself a share of legitimate highs, like the aforementioned hit song from her box-office-ruling 1992 film debut, “The Bodyguard." (It's got to be worth something if it inspired the next Susan Boyle.)
