Taking its title from one of Houston’s biggest hits - “I Wanna Dance with Somebody” - the film has the backing of the singer’s estate and her longtime record producer and mentor Clive Davis, producers said on Wednesday. Houston, 48, whose hits included, “I Will Always Love You” and “Saving All My Love for You,” drowned in her bathtub at a Beverly Hills hotel in 2012 on the eve of the Grammy Awards after taking cocaine. She had a well-chronicled and years-long battle with drug addiction.

'Another druggie....' got it. People with addictions have pasts so horrible they try to escape something you vanilla wafer eating, croc wearing, polo shirt donning, tepid water bathing, nobodies. Go sew a button on your collates and let the rest of the world witness beauty.
