Oprah Winfrey is facing backlash after revealing an untold story about Whitney Houston allegedly relapsing and falling off her talk show stage in 2009.
Oprah Winfrey is under fire after dropping a bombshell story about Whitney Houston at a Q&A session during the Cannes Lions festival in France.
Winfrey recalled the singer’s 2009 appearance on her talk show, claiming Houston had relapsed and fell off the stage before a performance. She said she’d asked the audience not to share photos at the time, to protect Houston’s reputation.
The comments spread fast online, with thousands questioning why this story surfaced years after Houston’s 2012 death. Critics called the remarks unnecessary and insensitive.
Houston’s estate pushed back hard, insisting the singer wasn’t under the influence and simply fell during a dark-stage sound check.
