Singer Whitney Houston died Saturday in Beverly Hills, according to law enforcement sources.

Authorities are trying to determine a cause of death. [Updated at 5:46 p.m.: She was found in the Beverly Hilton Hotel, where emergency medical personnel were called sometime Saturday, said the sources, who asked to remain anonymous because the investigation is ongoing.]

Houston, 48, was in the Los Angeles area for a musical tribute to music executive Clive Davis and had performed and spoken to reporters earlier in the week.

It’s a shame to lose someone that talented.

Go to YouTube. Listen to her 1991 Superbowl redition of the Star Bangled Banner.

Or Rev. Sharpton.

Waiting for one of them to blame racism for her death.

Prayers for her. She had a beautiful voice and I’m sorry she was never able to be happy.

Too bad. But not a shock. When she was clean, she was amazing. And a beautiful gal.

This is terrible news. We still don't know why she died, although people are speculating that drugs may be involved. It wouldn't be the first time an entertainer succombed to the horrible allure of drugs.

"Bittersweet memories
"That is all I'm taking with me.
"So, goodbye. Please, don't cry.
"We both know I'm not what you, you need.

"And I will always love you.
"I will always love you."

It is too easy to blame Bobby. She did this to herself.

Amen. Though I think she was happy when she was singing -- joyousness came through her voice. She was a wonderful singer.

May God keep her and bless her family with comfort and strength.

This is truly tragic. She was a musical genius. Go with God, Whitney.

Why not? I think God will make the right decision.
