Rihanna says she'd give her "entire life" to portray the late Whitney Houston on the big screen. Hey guys, welcome back to ClevverMusic! Obviously given the unfortunate circumstances under which Whitney Houston died in February, it's practically a given that ideas for a Whitney biopic are brewing.
And with such a legacy, it's no surprise that Rihanna would jump at the chance to play the lead role - telling reporters in Britain quote - "That would be something that I would give my entire life to do, because I would really want to pull it off. That's a huge, huge role, and whoever does it has to do a good job." In fact, RiRi says that the first song that she remembers falling in love with was a Whitney Houston song - the classic "I Will Always Love You". Rihanna says that song specifically was really inspiring and it's what made her develop a passion for music. As Rihanna puts it, Whitney is "partly responsible for me being here in this industry."
But just because RiRi says she wants it, doesn't mean she'll get it. Even though no movie has been confirmed, there's been a ton of speculation as to who could best portray Whitney - from Jordin Sparks to Jennifer Hudson, Vivica Fox to Meagan Good.
