Whitney Houston Announces NZ 'Nothing But Love' Tour 2010
Andrew McManus Presents, the most awarded female recording artist in history, Whitney Houston, as she embarks on her Nothing But Love tour performing exclusively in New Zealand's most beautiful venue - New Plymouth's TSB Bowl of Brooklands - this Taranaki Anniversary weekend on Saturday 6th March.
Whitney Houston, the ultimate soul-pop diva, is the only artist to chart seven consecutive #1 Billboard Hot 100 hits for Saving All My Love For You, How Will I Know, Greatest Love Of All, I Wanna Dance With Somebody (Who Loves Me), Didn't We Almost Have It All, So Emotional, and Where Do Broken Hearts Go.
She is the first female artist to enter the Billboard 200 album chart at #1 (for her second album, Whitney, 1987); and the only artist with seven consecutive multi-platinum albums (Whitney Houston, Whitney, I'm Your Baby Tonight, The Bodyguard, Waiting To Exhale, and The Preacher's Wife soundtracks, and My Love Is Your Love).
In fact, The Bodyguard soundtrack is one of the top 10 biggest-selling albums of all-time (at 17x-platinum in the US alone), and Whitney's career-defining version of Dolly Parton's I Will Always Love You is the biggest-selling US single of all-time (at 4x-platinum).
With over 170 million combined album, singles and videos sold worldwide during her musical career, Whitney Houston has established a benchmark for superstardom that may never be eclipsed. Whitney Houston's New Zealand concert will see her performing all of her greatest hits, along with new songs from her recent Top 10 album, I Look To You, showcasing why she remains a singular force in music today and one the world's most beloved pop icons. Saturday 6 March 2010 @ New Plymouths TSB Bowl of Brooklands Tickets on sale from Monday 8th February from www.ticketmaster.co.nz or 0800-111-999
