Whitney Houston & Jordin Sparks "Celebrate"

Giving us a peek at the pop music icon Whitney Houston's fourth and final big screen role before her tragic death in February, a music video made in support of Jordin Sparks and the late legendary R&B icon's duet "Celebrate," has arrived in full. The upbeat bubbly cut finds the two stars singing of celebrating life. The clip is capped off with a message that reads "In loving memory of Whitney Houston."
This upbeat and '80s-inspired R.Kelly-produced track is a simple yet fascinatingly uplifting vintage-sounding R&B song which both Houston and Sparks flawlessly executed it. It was the very last song Houston ever recorded before her untimely death at the age of 48, and is also featured in the upcoming musical-drama, "Sparkle," brings its light to theaters August 17. A remake of the 1976 classic Irene Cara flick, which finds Houston playing a mother of three daughters who rise to fame in the music industry, but face challenges when the family begins to fall apart.
Talking about the song "Celebrate," the 22-year-old said, "I first heard the song after she passed and it was one of those out-of-body experiences because she sounds so happy and you can feel the joy when she's singing." Sparks also shared about the concept behind the video was to throw a party in the late diva's honor: "When we did the song, we planned on [the video] being Whitney and me," Sparks, who plays Houston's daughter in the film, told BET. "But she's not here, so we wanted it to be a tribute to her. So it's fun, upbeat and exciting."
The supremely happy video is a mix of newly-shot scenes and footage from the actual "Sparkle" movie, in which, the American Idol winner effuses positive light beams while hosting a jubilant house party gathering with a handful of her "Sparkle" co-stars in honor of the late R&B icon. It's some kind of family get-together maybe and cupcakes, and goofy chair dancing and, if at all possible, ample movie footage of Houston's sparkiest Sparkle moments. Anything can be cause for a love-stuffed celebration!
