Whitney Houston Suprise Act At The Celebration Of Gospel Bet by ckz: 2:40pm On Jan 14, 2011
Whitney Houston and best friend (gospel singer) Kim Burrell, brought the house down last night at BET's 11th annual Celebration Of Gospel. As described on Twitter by spectators in attendace, Whitney walked out on stage during Kim's performance, and sent the crowd into a frenzy. The two singing divas, sung Whitney's inspirational ballad penned by R.Kelly, 'I Look To You', and was described as Whitney's best vocal performance in years.

Many doubters had lost some hope in Whitney ever sounding great again, but after last night's course of events, those opinions has changed in a big way.

Pretty good show with lots of legends. Highlight by far was Whitney Houston. She sounds GREAT and looked absolutely gorgeous 24 minutes ago via ÜberTwitter

And those aren't even half the Tweets that were tweeted during last night's performance. Whitney was the surprise guest at last night's event (hosted by Steve Harvey), and no one knew she was there, let-along, would sing. Kim and Whitney has become very close friends in recent years, Kim help honor Whitney at the 2010 BET Honors, and paid Whitney a visit on her European leg on tour, where they sung on stage together. Whitney's 'Waiting To Exale's' co-star Angela Basset, was last night's presenter of their performance btw.
