Anticipation for Whitney Houston’s interview on ‘Entertainment Tonight’ began to build when a preview of the segment was released last weekend and now the entire piece has aired. Joined by Jordin Sparks, the diva spoke about the upcoming remake of the classic ‘Sparkle’ film and why she decided to participate in the project.

In addition to her acting role, Houston has been listed as one of the producers of ‘Sparkle’. Moreover, she will also contribute to the official soundtrack of the movie and she has already started recording material for the project with producer Harvey Mason Jr.

Watch Houston and Sparks’ interview with ‘ET’ below:

It was endearing to see that Houston was able to stay focused in this discussion and in a rare moment of her career, she was quite welcoming to both the interviewer. Although it would have great if she would have actually allowed Sparks to talk, Houston definitely lived up to her reputation as a diva.

Hopefully, Houston has also found time in her busy schedule to work on her voice. While many have long since given up on her viability as a recording artist, the possibility of of a standout performance at the Golden Globes or the Academy Awards is still an moderately exciting prospect.
