Reports: Tyler Perry arranged for Whitney Houston’s body to be transported to New Jersey by private plane

Whitney Houston’s body will be flown to her native New Jersey, according to a number of recent bulletins, although numerous earlier reports indicated the singer’s remains would be transported for burial in Atlanta.
TMZ reported earlier today that Tyler Perry made arrangements for her remains to be transported by private plane:
“Sources tell TMZ, Tyler Perry rushed to the L.A. hospital Saturday as soon as he heard about Whitney’s death, and immediately offered up his private plane to the family.”
The Star-Ledger in New Jersey, citing an NBC News report, posted this piece indicating the funeral will take place there. Whigham Funeral Home of Newark, thought to be in charge of arrangements, would not confirm, but the Star-Ledger noted it has handled the memorial services of some of Houston’s relatives, including her father.
A memorial service likely will be held Friday or Saturday, CNN reported. The Rev. Jesse Jackson, a close friend of the Houston family, discussed developments with AJC reporter Ernie Suggs today.
“I was in New Jersey yesterday and my impression is that [the body is] going there,” said Jackson, who was in Newark on Sunday meeting with Houston’s mother, gospel singer Cissy Houston. “The mother is distraught. She is a woman of strong faith and she has wrestled with her daughter for a long time. She was under the impression that Whitney was coming out of it. She is completely stunned.”
Check back throughout the day for updates; we’ll continue posting information as it becomes available.

I was devastated when I learned of Whitney’s death. As someone who has lost a family member to addiction (alcohol), it is heart-wrenching to see someone go through the struggles. Addiction, in any form, is a disease. In a sense, it is worse than cancer. With cancer, most of the time, you can get treatment and you are cured. With addiction, you are never cured. And from what I have learned about addiction since the loss of my loved one, it is so powerful, you can’t begin to image what it’s like if you are not an addict. I’m sure Whitney fought her best fight. I believe she wanted to beat her addiction for her daughter and other family members – as well as herself. It’s just something that is so powerful you can’t image. God Bless You Whitney, you don’t have to struggle with this anymore. You are in God’s hands and he has lifted you up to be with him. Those left on earth are truly sad, but I for one, am happy you don’t have to deal with this disease any longer. Your voice was truly a gift from God and I am grateful that you shared it with us. Rest in peace Whitney. You will always be remembered and loved through your lasting legacy – your music.

Years ago I was at a low point of my life; a woman I adored fell in love with a friend of mine and would have nothing to do with me. That coupled with the fact that I had a low-paying job, and got little respect at the job sank me into a deep, dark depression. Whitney’s – The Greatest Love Of All helped me climb out of the abyss of gloom and Love myself, I’d listen to it a hundred times and sing along with her at the top of my lungs. I sincerly owe her – big time. She was a jewel, who went down a bad path. Hopefully youngsters will use her as an example and stay on the right road – and spend time with the RIGHT PEOPLE. She, then, is God’s instrument – as she would have wanted !
God bless YOU, Whitney Houston !

For all of us, Ms.Houston’s death does come as a complete surprise and shock!!! No matter when, how or who assisted/helped/cajoled/convinced or coerced Ms. Houston into drugs they are devastating in their own right. What happened to Ms. Houston who appeared to be on the rebound and had so much to live for is simply this……..I am human!!! I can MIX drugs and alcohol and “NOTHING IS GOING TO HAPPEN TO ME!” I’ve done it before and everything was OK!!!!! HUGE mistake and assumption and just not the better choice to make!!!!!
!!!!!!!WARNING!!!!!!! !!!!!!CAUTION!!!!! labels are put on PRESCIPTION drugs for a reason…..they are potent and can cause death!!!!! Just don’t do it!!!! I don’t believe Ms.Houston had one iota that she wasn’t going to come out of this situation!!!! If she had she wouldn’t have done it!!!!! As someine else has said…….”This is a “WAKE UP” moment for us ALL!!!!! First and foremost DRUGS (prescribed or otherwise) are addictive and not good!!!!! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE……pay attention to the WARNINGS…….DON’T DO drugs and for those that are responsible when you’re taking PRESCRIBED drugs…..PLEASE DONT DRINK!!!!! For those with children in your homes (no matter what their ages) make sure you keep your PRESCRIPTION drugs under lock and key……because they can, have and will abuse them too and in more cases that are reported have KILLED someone’s child!!!! Finally, let’s refrain from the negativity it serves no purpose. Lets instead take a tragedy and turn it into a positive by celebrating Ms. Houston’s awesome GOD given talent and use this as an example of what CAN realy happen to us!!! Lets lift everyone, the Houston family and the world up in PRAYER as we all struggle with the UGLY affects of DRUGS!!!!

Its mighty funny how so many people already know the cause of Ms. Houston’s death before the test results are even back. Thank you FAMUAKA for your comments! Let’s not judge or even jump to conclusions. And further more…regardless of the cause..the fact is, she is gone..and only God can determine whether it was too soon or not. All things work according to HIS plan. Lay off the judgements folk and let Ms. Houston rest in peace. She will be missed and her mark on this world will last for centuries to come! Peace and Love!

SO Sad a story. A talent and voice like none other. I hurt.
But given her history, did Whitney’s party friends fail her when they saw her acting erratic, and drinking Thurs/Fri nights? Where was a voice of reason to keep an eye on her behind closed doors?

Whitney Houston was a nightingale at her best. Sure we all have been impacted by her death. It was a real “wow” factor when I got the news on Saturday. Whitney has been living with the demons most of her life. When she first came out she was a pop icon… With the help of Clive Davis, she crossed over immediately… The black community shunned Whitney to the exstint of booing her at the soul train music awards… Cause she wasn’t black enough. To prove to the black community how black she was… She married Bobby brown. That moved proved to be a idiotic mistake… But we still didn’t accept her cause that move made her too black. It was damn if you do or damn if you don’t. Not being accepted is a hard pill to swallow. Xanex was much easier. I know we all love Whitney… She should of loved her more. Instead of loving her so much now. We killed Whitney. Not the drugs.

It is easy to mis-use and OD on prescription drugs. After a recent surgery, I was to take a muscle relaxer every 6 hrs…. I began taking every 4 hrs in error. I began hallucinating, couldn’t sleep, heart racing etc I went to the ER. They couldn’t find anything wrong. The next day when I read the label again, I realized that I was mis-using the drug.
Okayyy

One thing for sure is this: Whitney could take ANY entertainer’s song and make it HERS, but absolutely NO ONE can take a Whitney Houston song and give it individuality. If so, I’m relatively sure the person hasn’t been born yet.

@Ms. Southernroyalty……I caouldn’t agree with you more….NO Matter how she passed, she’s gone!!! I will differ slightly in the timing statement, sometimes we can alter GOD’s plan by our own behavior!!! I made my statement based on facts already in evidence…..FOUL PLAY has been ruled out!!! Great. So she either had a heart attack that could be exacerbated by drugs, stress and the like or the combination of alcohol and drugs, which those (from a very reliablle source) with her said she was doing both!! It could have also been dry drowning which meant she was unconscious to the point that when she went underwater she could not/did not wake up! Either way, I beg all of us to just make sure we are making the best choices when it comes to our lives because we TRULY on LIVE ONCE!!!

First and foremost my prayers and thoughts go out to her daughter and her mother. This is a very sad day for all who loved her music. Some people have there nerve to sit up here and talk about what they think happened, for all anyone knows she could of had a heart attack it could of been anything please lets not assume the worst. Lets not sit up here and blame Bobby for her previous drug addiction, she is a grown woman and knew what she was doing. My point is that she is gone to a better place whatever happened it is very sad. Goes to show u that your time on this earth is very limited you can have a conversation with your mother and 25 mins later you can be gone. I feel for her daughter and loosing your mother is the most devasting event that could ever happen to one. The events that took place are very strange….she sang about god which was her last performance and the next day she was gone. Jesus does love her and he felt she was in a better place with him. So lets all give the family some respect….and remember her as the diva that she was and let god put his arms around her as she walks with him.

So sick of all the posting, like you all knew her personally.. No one really knew her, but her… Yes, the family will have a hard time and be in the limelight because of it instead of having private time to mourn, and yes, people like Jessie will use it to further his fame, as usual. She had a beautiful voice we will all miss, but lets face it, in a couple weeks we will all be saying Whitney Who ??? Cause most of the post I’m reading are turning out to be post for the ones who post it. Look at me, Look at me !! Get over it people, move on and put the blame where it’s suppose to be… She had choices and more money than 90 % of us will ever have, she decided what to do with her life, good or bad. Stop blaming others for her addictions, the people, the pharmacy’s, the drs. and for God’s sake stop comparing her to MJ or Amy Winehouse, who couldn’t hold a candle to Whitney. RIP, and blessings to her family. Others, stop riding on her coattails like your important !!

I lived in another city and came to visit my daughter a few years ago. I use to visit her often as she had a daughter who was crazy about me and I wanted to see them as much as I could. One time when I visited her she looked so thin. When I looked in her face I could see her bones. I never said anything to her about this, but my son came to me and said she was hooked on crack and we should admit her to rehab. The next time I visited I realized that something was really wrong with her. She was dirty, my granddaughter was dirty and had sores in her head, and the house was filthy. I cried all the way home which was a 60 mile trip. She is off crack now and working and raising her 3 children. The granddaughter is in her second year of college. I prayed a lot and God answered my prayers. It took a while and she could have died, but He is always on time when you depend on Him. I know what Whitney’s mom went through and I pray for her and Whitney’s daughter, as it had been reported that she was smoking pot and causing concern for Whitney. Rest in Peace Whitney, all your troubles are over.

Wow! So many to cast the first stone. How many of us would still comment on this post or respond ABOUT anyone – not just Whitney “if” our lives were made public? We are so quick to judge others when given the opportunity..but if God calls YOU home this INSTANT are YOU ready? As the elders say “You must clean in front of your OWN door FISRT”. My heart goes out to a family who has lost a loved one. A mother who’s lost her precious child, a daughter who has lost her special, beautiful, mother – a person who can’t be replaced, a brother who has lost his sister, an so on. Each of us knows the pain of losing someone. But don’t let me hinder your post(s)…those whithout sin…go ahead and cast the first stone because you are perfect & without sin. May God bless each & everyone of you. My prayers go out to the family, friends & fans of Ms. Houston. <3

The death of this legend comes as such a tragedy. It reminds me of the death of Phylis Hyman. Both struggled with addictions, troubled relationships. and left behind MANY family and friends who love them and would go to the ends of the earth to ensure happiness is restored. We only see the outside of people. We even from time to time smile on the outside yet our inside my hold something else. There are events and times in our lives that become simply a memory…we can never get them back and no matter how we try to arrange things we cannot re-live the moment. The bible says that “death comes as a thief and robber by night” I truly feel like I have been robbed!

Very unfortunate this ended this way. Such a beautiful lady with a beautiful voice ….such an amazing talent. I’m in my 50’s and tear up every time I hear her signature song now. She’s a Jersey Gal and it’s fitting she’s returned to her roots ….where she started. Whitney was a NJ treasure.
I pray for her and her family and hope others will respect the privacy of the family.

Alcohol and Drug Addiction can be cured. Jesus said, “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest..” Matthew 11:28-30. Our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit. Don’t defile God’s temple. Confee your sin and turn to God. “He who conceals his sins does not prosper, but whoever confesses and renounces them finds mercy.” (Proverbs 28:13).

TheBigCat…you are the idiot. It’s my money and I pay to see who I want to see. This is supposed to be a way to send condolences and not a place to tear down anyone, whether it’s Whitney or Bobby. You need God in your life. Do you have any talent? What is your claim to fame? God gave Bobby talent…if you do not like him, it is not your place to dis-respect anyone who so choses to spend their money how they want to. You are probably a person who has no culture or class or know how to enjoy the finer things in life. There were a whole slew of artistes including Celine Dion, CeeLo Green, Temptations and others that were at the 3 day JazzFest. Let’s not take away from Whitney’s moment with your caustic and crude remarks. Bobby is grieving just like the rest of the world and Whitney’s family. He is the father of her only child and her husband. So no matter your own personal feelings about him, this is not the place and time. Be respectful!!!
I should not even give you and your crude remark any acknowledgement…but I couldn’t help it!!! Get a life!!!!

@Will in Atlanta, and the guy that responded to you as well. You 2 need to stop being so self-righteous and sanctimonious. All you 2 did will was bring up the negative momnents in her life. Neither one of you mentioned that she took the Star Spangled Banner and made it a number one hit. Neither of you mentioned that she had 26 grammy nominations and took home 6. Neither one of you all mentioned that she had a true God givene gift. Yes!!! I agree she had personal deomons. EVERYONE DOES!!!! I am sure there are some things that are in your personal lives that you don’t want to be made public. The only reason that hers were made public is because of who she was!! Can you 2 truly say that you have perfect lives?? If you say that then you are the one that need a cat scan!!! Neither one of you have “halos” around your lives so stop being so judgmental of Whitney. This is a time now that we should be looking at her in a positive way not in a negative way. She came from a Newark Church to a global stage. And another point that you bring up that is a bunch of crap. You say that the people she hung around influenced her to succumb to drugs. Yes!!! I agree if she was 17 years old. But the reality is that no one can force a grown person to do anything they don’t want to do. So before you blog again in judgement you better read what it says in the 8th division of the book of St. John around the 7th verse in the bible. These are the words recorded; “He that is without sin among you, let him cast the first stone!”

Such talent wasted through terrible life choices. An even worse choice is the family association with Jesse Jackson. Talk about adding insult to injury!

I, too, respected Whitney’s talent as a beautiful singer, she had a great voice and obviously inspired many people. Reading the comments here has been interesting, but the best so far has been the one about how she had her frailties just like any other human, and as such, should just be respected; I agree with this statement totally. I find it extremely funny (or sad) how so many people on here want to go on and on about her addiction, or Bobby Brown causing her troubles, etc, etc; when she was just living her life as it happened, which is all any of us do. Sometimes we look great, sometimes we look bad, sometimes no one care what we look like, we just aren’t relevant anymore. Celebrity life is at times wonderful, at times terrible, no one can know until they are there what it’s like to have thousands of people looking at and judging their every move.
As far as all of you posting about god this, heaven that, she’ll see so and so in heaven, get real! There is nothing left for Whitney or any of you but a great big nothingness, your faith in an afterlife life may comfort you on earth, but when you pass, you are simply no more. No more songs to sing in an imaginary heaven, no fires of hell to confront you for living the life you chose. If there was a hell, according to many Whitney would be in it for giving in to the evils of this world; if there was a heaven, many would also consider her to be in it for believing in god; funny how neither of them can reconcile with each other. She is, sadly, going to be six feet deep and not living any more, that is the extent of her future. Many of us will miss her, but only a few of us won’t believe in fairy tales about where she is now.

Ms. Houston is and alwasys be remembered for her steller vocals, as many would say her “angel voice”. May the wings of angels encircle Whitney Houston. Gratitude for her gifts, sorrow for her agony, and prayers for her release at last.” May she rest in peace and God bless her family.

Whitney Houston was the face of every little girl in the inner city. She came from the streets of Newark and East Orange, NJ where Drugs has for over 20 yrs been apart of inner city sub-culture. Although she came from an unlikely place to succeed she did. I must say someone said it is virtually impossible to get off of drugs and I don’t believe that nor do I think it to be true. We all have battled with things some of us worse than others. We make personal choices and at the end of the day the addiction only holds you down if you allow it to. We as human beings can conquer ANYTHING. so for the person who said that don’t speak YOUR Truth onto others. We don’t know what the cause may have been and whatever the outcome we didn’t live her truth nor did we live her life. As for The Incomparable, Talented and Beautiful Girl from Newark Ms. Whitney Houston You are loved and were loved by so many. You will truly be missed!

after reading some of the comments about Whitney…I knew I had to STOP & express similar feelings as a person shown as “clean” did….my passion/business/mission is educating the public about preventive/natural health, personal growth & positive news*..for over 24 yrs…we are in the middle of soo much information having to do with the abuse of perscription drugs….the biggest downfall of people’s True health began when big pharma realized the huge market they could create as they produced more & More medication/perscruption drugs…..the profit is immense and continues to line the pockets of those who only care about how deeply they line those pockets. Over 24 yrs ago we were given an unstopable mission and to this day it is GROWING by leaps & bounds….a mission that cares about people…a mission that helps people Wake UP to the fact that HEALTH care is NOT disease care. Health is about tapping into the amazing mind//body&spirit that we are ~ and giving the body/mind & spiirt what it needs to expand healthfully… the way the Creator meant for us to ive. We are LIVING beings made in the Image & Likeness of the Creator (whatever or whomever that is for a person ~ this isn’t about Religion)…and we are meant to take in that which is natural ~ REAL ~ non-altered…we were NOT meant to be the recipients of the ungodly number of DRUGS/Medications that they keep coming out with and making them as accessible as possible to us all ~ starting when we are wee babies…think about it…when we are born they want to begin injecting us with one drug or another..including the beginning of vaccines…what will it take for people to Really wake up…may we all take a moment of silence for Whitney and all those who are caught up in the web of “safe & unsafe drugs”
This, I know, is why we have been given the never-ending mission of our Healthy Referral Newspaper and MindYourBody&Spirit radio show* Blessings ~ Love & LIGHT to Whitney & her family ~ LOVE is all there is*

I lift my hat to you Tyler Perry. You, in the midst of crisis, remember what “family” is all about and you jumped in and did what you felt you had to do. Whitney Houston was a great singer with obvious problems. Did those closest to her went over and above to help her with her additions, we do not know. On the BET 2012 Honors, the First Lady, Michelle Obama said something so powerful “we have to reach out, reach down and help our brother and sisters”. It is our duty as a people to do so. So let us not be too judgemental with Whitney. Let us remember her for the great artist that she was, and pray for her family that they will one day come to terms with her passing. RIP Whitney!
