Whitney Houston hologram to embark on world tour
Get a first look at the hologram.
Whitney Houston fans will soon have an opportunity to see her hologram perform her biggest hits on a new worldwide tour.
BASE Hologram, in partnership with The Estate of Whitney E. Houston, announced Tuesday the first tour dates for "An Evening With Whitney: The Whitney Houston Hologram Tour."
The first show takes place in Mexico in January, and will feature Houston's hits, including “I Will Always Love You,” “I Wanna Dance with Somebody (Who Loves Me”), “The Greatest Love of All” and “Higher Love.”
Choreographer Fatima Robinson, who has worked with Rihanna, Kanye West and Mary J. Blige, will oversee the production, which will include a live band and back-up dancers.
“Whitney Houston was a talent beyond words, and her influence and artistry transcended all boundaries,” Brian Becker, chairman and CEO of BASE Entertainment and BASE Hologram, said in a statement. “What we are creating here is a new type of theatrical concert experience designed to capture that magic. When she performed there was an unmatched level of charisma and emotion to it - that’s what we are going to bring to audiences, and it’s an honor to be able to help add to her legacy with this project.”
Houston was 48 years old when she died of an accidental drowning in a Beverly Hills hotel in 2012. Throughout her decades-long career, Houston earned six Grammys, one Emmy, 22 American Music Awards and 16 Billboard Music Awards.
