A SWEET GOODBYE
I know that it’s a bit late to talk about this , but I couldn’t stay
like this and not say anything about one of the greatest pop stars in our ages
and also my mom’s favourite singer . Of course im talking about WHITNEY ..
So as we say in Greece better late than ever ! I decided to make a short
dedication for her life , through information that I collected from the
internet , but im sure all these things that you will read may seem familiar to
you due to thousands of articles and videos that have been produced and
reproduced from the media .

1963-February 11 2012) was an American recording artist, actress , producer and

charts as well as her prominence on MTV, starting with her video “How Will I
