Cashing in on the dead - Whitney Houston's velvet dress auctions from £1,000

I couldn't believe someone is planning to make some cash out of Whitney Houston's death. Mehn! can you believe that? how can some people be that heartless.  Anyway I chanced on these comments that were posted in reaction to the said auction.
For your ears only.

    This is sheer wickedness and idolatory. Why don't they rather build a monument where her clothes, accessories and other assets can be kept for tourists attraction. This way, people can come from accross the world to pay and watch, rather than an outright sale. Who takes the money from the auction?
  • fair reviews  •  Miami, Florida 
    who buys this stuff? honestly who wants to pay thousands of dollars for an dress just because a celebrity wore it? thats such idolotry.
  • its monday for christ sake whitney was buried on saturday talk about no class. u can say its for arts sake and all that nonesence the dirt hasnt even settled on her grave unreal...! 
  • Ericka K  •  Macomb, Michigan 
    Where as I agree that it is way too soon..why do you all ASSUME it is her family..odd pieces such as this were from someone at the studio..My goodness use your brains folks.Ms Sissy, Dionne and especially her daughter wouldn't have even gotten a chance to look in her closets and contact a auctiuon... 
  • Kevyn H  •  Atlanta, Georgia 
    REALLY THAT IS SO TACKY, WHY DONT YOU JUST DIG HER UP AND PUT HER UP FOR AUCTION SHOULD BE A SHAME OF YOURSELVES
  • robert  •  Amersfoort, The Netherlands  •  
    why dont people have respct for the dead at least"?
  • an2nia 
    It seems like they could have waited before they began to auction off her belongings.
  • Susan
    "She lived a life and had a career that no one else has ever had?" hmmm...then why do Elvis Presley, Michael Jackson and Jim Morrison come to mind.
  • Kristen P 
    #$%$ has the dirt even settled yet?
  • MarNun 
    My god! Not even a full month has passed since here death....RIP Whitney :(
  • MichealF  •  Yonkers, New York 
    I just sent an email to Julien Auctions via their website! This is not cool! She was burried yesterday!!! Im outraged, not because its Whitney Houston, but because of man kind and people lack of respect for others. They should have much more respect for her family.
  • Martha Tucker  •  Dahlonega, Georgia 
    let the lady rest in peace before you start making money on her death, her family is looking that now she is dead she is woirth more money, very saddddddddd
  • Debbie  •  East Amherst, New York 
    I believe in life after death. She is watching. There should never be a financial profit in someone's death.
  • Kim  •  Raleigh, North Carolina 
    I wish people would have respect and wait until she is in the ground good. This whole death of Whitney Houston has stunned me. I can't imagine what her mom and daughter feels. Lets keep them in our prayers..
  • Sandra C 
    Can anyone spell vultures? Already circling and the body's not even cold!
  • DMVJ  •  Evanston, Illinois 
    This is idolatry. Instead of worshipping people and the clothes they wear, we should worship God. The end of the world is near. Jesus will soon come. Be ready.
  • Duke 
    Did they strip her dead body before they buried her so they could sell that dress too?
    It Never Ends...Ooh OOOOOOOHHHHHH!!!!!
  • Laffinitoff  •  Cleveland, Ohio 
    This auction defines why Whitney Houston is dead.She had so many who allowed her to go downhill into the pit of drugs for fear of losing the money, the association with fame etc.No one told her no.She was acommodity for those who should have taken action and now they cannot wait to start cashing in... 
  • okoro  •  Lagos, Nigeria 
    This items should be kept in honour of her memory instead of selling them to the highest bidder
  • NUNO YOBIDNESS  •  Santa Fe, New Mexico 
    If you watched the funeral on tv, the people behind this auction were the ones who showed up at the funeral driving uhauls.
  • Tabatha Davis  •  Issaquah, Washington 
    Are you serious. Thats just too fast.

    I do consider all of the concepts you've presented to your post. They are very convincing and will certainly work. Nonetheless, the posts are very short for novices. May just you please lengthen them a bit from next time? Thanks for the post.

 The Ghana Revenue Authority today held an in-house pre-burial service for the Late President of the republic of Ghana who also served as a Commissioner in its erstwhile Internal Revenue Service.  Staff from some of its District offices joined top management staff and colleagues at the Head Office to mourn the departed hero. Present were the Board Chairman of the Authority Mr. Ernest E. Kwesie, the Commissioner General Mr. George Blankson, his associate Commissioners Mrs. Comfort Boohene-Osafo, Mr. Anthony Minlah and Major General Carl Modey. Also in attendance were his Deputy Commissioners and Assistant Commissioners. Rev.

Queen of Tatoos

Dear blogville, If you've read my article on 'Why I admire Nigerian Movies' you will understand why Nollywood has a place in my heart. Some actors and actresses I never miss their shows are; Patience Ozorkor, Olu Jacobs, Bruno Ihuoha, Pete Eneh, Pete Edochie, Florence Onoma, Christie Okonkwo, Maureen Solomon, etc.  One young actress I also admire so much is Tonto Dikeh. She performs her role with so much passion from being a President's daughter to a common house help. However,  I couldn't believe it till I saw it with my own eyes that Tonto has a controversial tatoo on her back in addition to 57 others on her body. Whatever calls for this 'fashion' is left to her to say. I feel its not necessary cos, she is only poisoning her blood. Does she want to enter into the Guinness Book of World Records?  God have mercy. Shalom! picture credit: Nigeriafilms.com
