Whitney Houston has been featured in the latest issue of Rolling Stone.

The Rolling Stone’s front cover features an image of Whitney Houston and is emblazoned with the headline: “The Diva and Her Dark Side”

Gerry Griffith said: “A lot of us talked about that, and no one could come up with an answer.

“Where is that rebellion coming from? It didn’t come out for a while.”
