Wow, 110??? She has to be at least one of the oldest people in the world no? She didn't even make the Top 100!  The current oldest living person is over 115, and the Top 100+ are over 113. The oldest ever made it to 122 (the only one to hit 120)  NOTE: Using that list for next year's Dead Pool will be a no-no! lol

Her date of birth has been verified by Cuban authorities, but none of the official lists recognize her as the oldest living person. Here is an article from BBC.

That's totally amazing. Geez though, I wonder how wrinkly one's skin must be at that age.  Are you way weaker than when you were 110? Do you long for the good old days when you were 100? God bless her. TIS

I know Whitney had problems and yet am still surprised. I thought was getting better although I heard her comeback wasn't they well received and that her voice sound hoarse. I don't know yet how she died but my first thought is either drugs or suicide. How terribly sad. How old would her little girl (with Bobby Brown) be now anyway? RIP Whitney TIS

"The Bodyguard" was one of my daughters' favorite movies and the soundtrack as well was great. I like all the songs RR mentioned but I really like her version of "I Will Always Love You." She sang like an angel. I can't get out of my head though the news story in which her and Bobby Brown appeared all spaced out, I forgot what country they were in. It's my speculation that Brown was NOT a good influence on her. TIS

DE NIRO had picked Whitney on his list this year. A pretty bold prediction. As Sonny would say, Wasted Talent. And with her recent past i surprised nobody else picked her... I was never into her music, but she had a great voice and had the potential to be at the top of her game for literally decades.. It started to go downhill for her when she started acting and the success of the Bodyguard was massive.. RIP...

What is there to investigate,the police say there was no criminal intent according to CNN .. I wonder who she was partying with, supposedly a lot of people were in that hotel partying for the grammys tonight... I know Whitney had problems and yet am still surprised. I thought was getting better although I heard her comeback wasn't they well received and that her voice sound hoarse. I don't know yet how she died but my first thought is either drugs or suicide. How terribly sad. How old would her little girl (with Bobby Brown) be now anyway? RIP Whitney TIS

Just so, so, soooo sad. Her ballads of the'80s personified my twentysomehing years. I can't tell you how many weddings I attended back then---including my own---where the first dance was to one of her songs. FWIW, they're now reporting that she may have actually fallen asleep and drown in the bathtub after taking too many prescription drugs. Shades of Jim Morrison .

Sure does sound like Morrison. I was thinking OD or suicide. It IS so sad. TIS
