Even with all of her troubles and scandals, I still didn't believe this until I heard that her publicist
confirmed it. This is a tremendous loss to the music world. RIP Ms. Houston.
I'm so very sad right now. I was in high school when The Bodyguard came out - the movie and soundtrack were huge hits. So many memories of my teen years include her songs. RIP
Me too, Trulov ... I'm just in shock! I thought and hope that she was finally turning her life around. So sad, and such a loss and waste.

I'm ... I'm speechless.
I totally agree. I can't believe it. What a terrible loss. She definitely was a soundtrack to my childhood. She was truly an amazingly talented individual. My heart goes out to her and her family and friends. Sad day.

Oh yes! The bodyguard is an unforgettable film, especially her song!
She had one of the nicest voice in music business and it's always sad when it ends this way... :? :(

I'm still processing it La'Shon.


I remember being 3 years old and watching my mom clean the house to Donna Summer and just loving her voice.

My mom always tells the story of how I would hear her music and and I would shake me head to the beat of the music playing that my pigtails would fly.


I will miss her voice. :cry:

I'm not sure it was Lung Cancer Killjoy, that's what killed Donna Summer. I read online Robin Gibb had a long battle with problems with his Intestines, his twin brother died in 2003 from some sort of Intestinal Cancer. They have a family history of Gastrontestinal (sp) issues. Such a sad loss. :( May he R.I.P.

It was cancer, but not lung cancer.

According to the BBC News website, he had colon cancer which had also spread to the liver.
