The estate of Whitney E. Houston in conjunction with Primary Wave Music and Sony have announced the launch of the “Whitney Houston Hotel,” to honour the singer’s life and career, according to Variety.
The “Whitney Houston Hotel,” will take place at the W Hotel in Hollywood, California, from February 1, 2023 to February 4, 2023, during Grammy week. MAC Cosmetics, Proflowers and City National Bank are said to be sponsoring the highly-anticipated event.
Sony’s 360 Reality Audio Immersive Listening Lounge, a pop-up shop with one-of-a-kind merch, a definitive memorabilia exhibit featuring photos of some of the most memorable gowns that Houston donned in her iconic career, will form part of the activities at the event.
Michelle Williams of Destiny’s Child, Amber Riley, Coco Jones, Baby Tate and Teddy Swims, Kiana Ledé, Georgia Ku and Natalie Jane are all slated to perform a medley of Houston’s biggest hits.
The tribute follows the recent release of Whitney Houston: I Wanna Dance With Somebody, which premiered in theatres in December 2022 and so far grossing over $50 million at the box office.
