Debra Cox Will Be Singing All Of Whitney Houston's Classics in Upcoming Lifetime Biopic

Posted in: , ,

Yaya DaCosta may be playing Whitney Houston for the upcoming Lifetime biopic based on the late singer's life, but it’s been announced that Deborah Cox will play Whitney’s voice!

The Houston Estate has done everything in their power to stop Lifetime from making this film, including denying production the rights to Whitney’s music — so the movie producers have commissioned Deborah Cox to sing all of Whitney’s classics that will be featured in the movie.

Deborah might just have the most important performance of the entire movie. I wonder if this means that Yaya Dacosta is not such a great singer?

Meanwhile, to play Bobby Brown in the movie is Arlen Escarpeta, a young relatively unknown actor. See him with Yaya Dacosta below...

First Look at Yaya DaCosta as Whitney Houston for Lifetime Biopic

Posted in: , , ,

As a big fan of Whitney Houston, I confess that I'm truly excited for the Whitney Houston biopic! And with this first look at model and actress Yaya DaCosta as the late musician, I must say that I am very impressed.

Yaya has the look down pat but the question some are asking is whether she will be able to portray the mannerisms of the legendary Whitney? We all have to wait and see...

BTW, did Whitney's daughter Bobbi Kristina really think she could've got the role? She should be happy at the nod to her mom instead of going off on Angela Basset [see here]. Oh well, you can never please some people.
