Whitney Houston’s Funeral LIVE Stream

Watch Whitney’s funeral via live stream

Fans of legendary singer Whitney Houston will be happy to know that they will be able to tune into her funeral thanks to the Associated Press’ live stream.

The AP’s live stream video will be the only way anyone without an invite will be able to watch the funeral live as it takes place on February 18, 2012 at Newark, New Jersey’s New Hope Baptist Church, the same church where Whitney Houston grew up singing.

Stevie Wonder and Aretha Franklin (Whitney’s godmother) will perform at the funeral and Whitney’s co-star in The Bodyguard, Kevin Costner, will be speaking. Gospel singer and pastor Marvin L. Winans will be delivering the eulogy.

Other celebrities expected to attend Houston’s funeral are Oprah Winfrey, Chaka Khan, Jesse Jackson, Valerie Simpson, Tyler Perry, Rickey Minor, Brandy, Ray J, Alicia Keys and even Mel Gibson (yes, really). Although we originally reported that the New Hope Baptist Church only has 300 seats, there are in fact 1500 seats available and all will be filled.
