Here is the trailer for the upcoming (estate approved) documentary into Whitney Houston, which promises to give fans a look into her real life outside of the spotlight.

Besides interviews from her close friends and family, the documentary “WHITNEY” also includes home videos and never-before seen footage of the late singer during the height of her career. Whitney will premiere at the Cannes Film Festival in May, then debuts in the U.S on July 6.

From WHITNEY THE FILM.com:

Whitney Houston broke more music industry records than any other female singer in history. With over 200 million album sales worldwide, she was the only artist to chart seven consecutive U.S. No. 1 singles. She also starred in several blockbuster movies before her brilliant career gave way to erratic behavior, scandals and death at age 48.

The documentary feature Whitney is an intimate, unflinching portrait of Houston and her family that probes beyond familiar tabloid headlines and sheds new light on the spellbinding trajectory of Houston’s life. Using never-before-seen archival footage, exclusive demo recordings, rare performances, audio archives and original interviews with the people who knew her best, Oscar®-winning filmmaker Kevin Macdonald unravels the mystery behind “The Voice,” who thrilled millions even as she struggled to make peace with her own troubled past.

I think I’m ready to see this now, and have one more good cry over the loss of this magnificent artist.
