National Enquirer Publishes Whitney Houston Coffin Photo

Sandra Rose February 22, 2012

Someone within Whitney Houston’s camp sold her out to the National Enquirer. The national gossip rag displays a photo of the pop icon lying in an open coffin wearing a purple dress on the cover of this week’s issue. The photo is believed to have been taken inside the Whigham Funeral Home in Newark, where her family attended a private wake last Friday.

No word on how much the magazine paid the insider for the photo.

See the photo after the break. WARNING: GRAPHIC CONTENT!

Wow.

Sandra…why would you publish the photo on your blog. My gosh woman how low would you really go for hits. Have some respect for the dead. Not because national enquirer did it means you should put this photo up. Ughh. That’s it for me

Wow. I wonder who took this!!??? Let Whitney RIP!!

I understand the motives for the person who took this photo—-money.

But, what is with random people taking pics of loved ones in their coffins and posting them on social media outlets tho……

One of my friends posted a pic of this grandmother in her coffin…..I felt some type of way.

What’s so graphic? It’s just like anyone else who is in a casket. Seen one dead body in a casket….you’ve seen them all.

WOW

This isn’t worse than the other photo I saw earlier, I think one of these other mags has one of her in the hotel on the floor.
kahmmillion

I hope they put a Lo-Jack on the door of her casket, I bet there are going to be some thirsty people trying to pry that thing open for the $500k in jewelry she was buried in. I wonder, can she pawn her jewelry in the afterlife?

How disgusting, its things like this that make me wish Y2k really happened!!!

The cemetery was actually closed on Monday because there were so many people visiting her gravesite. That photo I saw was reenactment…thank God.

While it’s not graphic, I don’t like seeing pictures of dead people actually dead. Something about that doesn’t sit well with me.

Well the family sold the “funeral rights” to certain media outlets. They claim the sold them for $$$ for Bobbie Kristina….now this???? I’m beginning to be SUSPECT of this whole picture selling business…
Smonae80

This just soo damn disrespectful,, anything for a dollar. No morals.. its not graphic, but just the thought of someone making a buck off this photo is disturbing
rockstar

That jewelry was just for show. You can best believe it was taken off of her before she was buried. Can’t belive her own family would stoop so low though.

The family didnt sell this picture. I believe it was either the funeral director or the worker who did Whitney’s outfit and makeup. Look at the place there is no one in that room. It does not look disturb. Whoever took it I am sure got paid alot. Whitney looks so peaceful. She is finally at peace

Sandra…………………….1000(s) WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYS did you even put this up? So disrespectful!!! it was disrespectful when the media did it to MJ and it’s disrespectful now!! ~smh~
West Coast Chick

I understand that Whitney’s an icon, A Star and all, but what about her CHILD. folks have little to no respect for the dead… but what about the living? Its just sad. People are watching that little girl, waiting for her to fall- its just a disgusting shame. People have no integrity or morals.
prynsexxx

All I know IL, this isn’t the first time SandraRose dot com has posted pics of the dead. Coretta Scott Kings funeral pics were posted on THIS VERY SITE and so were the pics of them ppl that were killed in Indy, the mother and baby pics. Like I’ve said before, death does not bother me. I work in Anatomic Pathology. We do autopsies from 19 week old infants to 90 year old men and women. Maybe I’m numb. Don’t knock me, THIS is a way of life for me. IJS
shakura80

As stated in the other post I was higly disgusted with this. The woman is never going to rest in peace and it is a damn shame Although she looks beautiful like she is resting and like she is FINALLY at peace

If I took a pic of my grandmother in her casket with my cell phone, my dad would have held me down while his sister, my aunt would have cut me to the white meat smh. I dont know when that trend started but it needs to stop. Trust me I dont need any pic of my dead gramp or my dad to remember what they looked like, its in my brain I will always remember those days.
West Coast Chick

Michael Jackson’s enquirer death photo was much worse.
Twilight

I am to bet the Funeral home director who looked xtra special at the funeral with she gold jacket looking like Elton John. That picture was more than likely taken before the family got there to approve the body and before the spread of flowers was placed on the foot of the casket. She looks beautiful and i am sure the family is livid as that day was invite only and private.

I have pictures of my grandmother from her recent funeral & Wake and they are for my eyes only. I have pictures of us taking turns kissing her before we set off to her burial.

Although some of us black folks may video and tape a funeral in a minute I am glad i havent seen a dramatic fall out with the guilty family member crying and passing out on the floor screaming and trying to climb in the casket with thier dead family member.

5-4-3-2-1……The Funeral home is gonna blame the hair and make up person. I am sure that the funeral home has gotten alot of advertisement to last them another 50 years. Greed is a terrible thing if this business that the family trusted them to take care of arrangements for Whitney and her dad to only for them to sell them out.

I am sure Cissy discused with the family how private she wanted this wake to be and how she didnt want no pictures being taken, if she did she would of had an open casket at Whitneys funeral service with an annoucment to even say no pictures taken and all cellular phones off.

@Twilight – Funerals Homes really don’t need adverstiment. Most can’t afford t have that kind of funerl. Her casket probably cost in the neighborhoold of 20k. Most folks don’t have burial insurance and your average casket cost about 2 to 10k.

@ caligirl Did you see this lady she jacket she wore at the funeral? lol. Thats screaming for attention within itself. I peeked at the website and saw that it was only 5 comments on the guest book page 3 days after the funeral and now its like thousands now. Once they display their business name it is advertisment in my opinion. The only Orbituary there is 4 or 5 including Whitney and hers is the longest.

If they leaked it they want people to say what a wonderful job they did with laying Whitney away being that it was a closed casket for the funeral. Crazy as it sounds some people do that. I know a couple of funeral homes i told my family NOT to call in the event that God calls me home because some be making folks look other than themselves.

I have seen people put away just as Whitney. My former Supervisor who passed had a 2 white horses & carriage pulling her casket with 7 white limos for people who needed a ride along with the rest of the percession. She had her viewing/Wake at one church and had her funeral at her church.

I personally think Ray J might’ve leaked this photo. Ole slimey lookin goat flea. I can’t stand him. I saw on another blog where he (allegedly) said “I keep her (alluding to Whitney) doped up and d*cked down. I might record us having sex and show it to you homies.” That sounds like something that little a$$ worm would utter.

Any whoodle…Queen Whitney looks rested and at peace. I pray her spirit sang its way thru the pearly gates.

National Enquirer has had headlines for 10 years about Whitney being near death, now they have a picture. They are wrong, I think someone needs to take them to court again.

I agree. She clearly wanted to be noticed, like she was on stage. Typical narcissistic behavior. I wouldn’t put it past her to sell the photo to cash in.

NOT SHOCKED By THIS (At ALL…)

@ step-Auntie Sandra….hmmmm…you’ve a point there.

That jacket that woman had on was clearly some “Solid Gold Dancer…look at me”…type gear.

I’m surprised though Sandra..that you did NOT mention the narcissistic behavior…of bringing all those Winans up in the pulpit..WHYYYYY? Only 2 of them sang..why bring up nephews, brothers..step-cousins etc??? This was to honor Whitney going home no? ..was NOT supposed to be a Winans family re-union.

*sits in down in haughty disgust*

Just when you think the NE can’t sink any lower. Well I say sue the bastards & find out who gave them the photo then stone the person who did it…wooooo saaaaaaaah…ok sue all parties involved..this is beyond invasion of privacy and I say the #1 suspects are the funeral home employees

The Director of the Funeral Home believes it was from one of her staff. She will be getting to the bottom of this. This person was paid 500,000 for the photo

Shouldn’t have been on the front page, but I did want to see, so it’s cool with me. At this point, Whitney probably isn’t AT ALL bothered.

@Twlight – Were you referring to the Funeral Director? That was the theme the family was rolling with Cissy had two women escorting her out and they wore white and gold robes, the cakset looked Plantinum and Gold, the herse was gold.

A lot of people say it’s distasteful of Sandra to post this but in all honesty, we all wanted to see it. She looks very beautiful. It’s very sad to see her in that coffin-but we all gotta go one day.

Chris Brown and Rihanna are dangerously close to getting back together, sources close to the ex-couple tell TMZ — but the singers’ friends are desperately trying to keep them apart .. for their own good.

According to sources, Rihanna is still head over heels for Chris — despite that fateful night 3 years ago when he brutalized her — and if it weren’t for the media and her fans, she would already have taken him back.

We’re told Chris also has extremely strong feelings for Rihanna — current girlfriend be damned.

Now, sources tell us, Rihanna and Chris’ friends are terrified they’ll get back together — and they’re doing everything they can to prevent a possible reunion.

According to sources, friends on BOTH sides have expressed extremely strong reservations to Ri and CB about spending so much time together … warning it’s a terrible idea … personally AND professionally.

But with Rihanna’s birthday … Chris and Rihanna’s duets released this week … friends fear they’re fighting an uphill battle.

As one source put it, “You can’t hold back love

They were going in on KrustyKrab last night on Twitter.

Bambino is good, long long few days for me. Car accident, cold, just stressed. Other than that no complaints.

Rihanna tweeted last night something about make sure you listen to the remix. People said that was shade, I just thought it was promotion.

She looks nice and at peace. I use to not like seeing pics of people in their casket. After going to many funerals it doesn’t bother me. I have seen some not so nice make up jobs for the dead and not so nice wigs. She looks nice.

I’d like to see the Houston family try to blame Bobby Brown for this one.
