Singer Whitney Houston is dead at the age of 48. Beverly Hills police say her body was found yesterday afternoon in her room on the fourth floor of the Beverly Hilton hotel. Detectives are investigating, but police say there were no obvious signs of any criminal intent. Houston died just hours before her mentor and music executive Clive Davis was to hold his annual pre-Grammy concert and dinner. And her death is sure to cast a heavy pall on today's Grammy Awards, a music industry showcase where she once reigned. She won multiple Grammys including album and record of the year. Houston reigned as pop music's queen until her majestic voice and regal image were ravaged by drug use, erratic behaviour and a tumultuous marriage to singer Bobby Brown. Among her hits were ``How Will I Know,'' ''Saving All My Love for You`` and ''I Will Always Love You.`` Her success carried her beyond music to movies like ``The Bodyguard.'' The Reverand Al Sharpton says he'll call for a national prayer Sunday morning during a service at Second Baptist Church in Los Angeles. He says ``The morning of the Grammys, the world should pause and pray for the memory of a gifted songbird.''
