The "We Will Always Love You - A Grammy Salute to Whitney Houston" was a one hour special on CBS which was pre-taped a month ago in Los Angeles at the Nokia L.A. Live Theater and aired last night November 16th at 10 PM (EST).

Everyone in the theater was remembering the late soul sensation and actress who touched multiple lives from star actors and actresses to major singers like Usher, Britney Spears to LL Cool J and more…

Sharing tears of love and introducing live performers, Halle Berry spoke how much she loved the unforgettable Whitney Houston and than followed up by introducing Jennifer Hudson who performed 3 of Whitney's uptempo songs such as, "I'm Every Women," "How Will I Know," and "I Wanna Dance with Somebody." 

The one person that reflected deeply about knowing Whitney was Clive Davis who ultimately discovered her when she was 19 years old and launched her music career. Clive mentioned how she took his breath away and Whitney gave us the "Greatest Love of All," which was also a major hit song performed by the soul princess.

The song, "Greatest Love of All" was performed by Celine Dion who received standing ovations from the audience after performing such a heart-felt rendition of the song.

Usher poured his soul out in his performance of, "I Believe in You and Me" which was a touching song featured in the hit movie, "The Preacher's Wife" and Usher was introduced by Taraji P Henson who plays a cop on the television show A Person of Interest.

The closing off performance of the one hour special was CeCe Winans and Yolanda Adams who performed, "Count on Me," an angelic version as a duet.
