Neil Portnow, President/CEO of The Recording Academy has just released the following statement about the death of Whitney Houston at age 48. 

"Six-time GRAMMY® winner Whitney Houston was one of the world's greatest pop singers of all time who leaves behind a robust musical soundtrack spanning the past three decades. Her powerful voice graced many memorable and award-winning songs. A light has been dimmed in our music community today, and we extend our deepest condolences to her family, friends, fans and all who have been touched by her beautiful voice."

It's expected that some sort of tribute will be put together for tomorrow night's GRAMMY Awards.
