Whitney Houston memorizes lyrics backstage

Whitney HoustonPop superstar Whitney Houston was so nervous before her comeback gig at the Legends Ball, she had her assistant pin the lyrics to her famous songs to a wall so she could memorize tracks.


The 44-year-old singer — who hasn’t released a new album in five years — asked for an area backstage where she could rehearse some of her biggest hits.


A backstage source said: “Whitney was really nervous before her set. She didn’t make any diva demands and was polite to everyone. She spent 45 minutes reading the lyrics, mouthing the words and holding her hands as if in prayer.”
