Whitney Houston's death
While the official details of Whitney Houston's death Saturday remained unconfirmed pending an autopsy and toxicology tests, several reports were circulating Sunday suggesting she had died in the bathtub of her Beverly Hilton hotel room.
The 48-year-old Houston, who had a history of substance abuse, was declared dead at 3:55 p.m. Saturday after EMTs already on the scene for a pre-Grammys event spent about 20 minutes trying to revive her using CPR.
"The Bodyguard" star had been seen behaving erratically in the days leading up to her death, Pop & Hiss reported in detail. Police said Saturday that members of her entourage discovered her unresponsive and called for help.
Sources "close to Whitney" told TMZ late Saturday that members of the singer's entourage who were in the room had gone to check on her because it was time to get ready for the Clive Davis Grammy party that night, and Houston had been alone in the bathroom for about an hour. Houston was allegedly found with her face underwater in the bathtub as if she'd slid into the water, according to the unconfirmed report, and was pulled out by a bodyguard who immediately performed CPR.
Prescription medications were also reportedly found in the room, with Radar Online saying Valium, Lorazepam and a sleeping medication were on hand, and the Daily Mail and TMZ adding Xanax to that list.
Beverly Hills police and officials from the coroner's office would not confirm any details of the death beyond when it occurred, and that it happened in the hotel room, according to L.A. Now.
Though an autopsy is reported scheduled for Sunday, full results and an official cause of death likely won't come for weeks, as is normal in this type of situation.
"There were no obvious signs of criminal intent," Beverly Hills Police Lt. Mark Rosen told L.A. Now.
Houston will be remembered at Sunday's Grammy Awards with a tribute performed by Jennifer Hudson.

SO WHO ARE U GOING FOR PATRIOTS - GIANTS
It's down to two men. In one corner: wild ideas (not always good ones) and a sense of entitlement to victory. In the other: patience and mistake-free management – a man who outlasts his opponents, more than beats them. No, it's not Gingrich and Romney in the GOP primaries. It's Belichick and Coughlin in the Super Bowl.
At first glance, New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick and New York Giants head coach Tom Coughlin have a lot in common. Both men came up through the National Football League (NFL) ranks as assistants to coaching great Bill Parcells. And like many in the Parcells coaching family tree, both run their programs with obsessive attention to detail and an uncompromising sense of discipline and control.
As coaches, however, the two are different breeds: the conservative Coughlin versus Belichick the gambler. InSuper Bowl XLVI, the contrasting styles will be on full display. But beyond the big game, both coaches represent something about how football is evolving, and between the two of them exists an emerging model for the pro football coach of the future.

Future - "Magic" ft. T.I.
Future and T.I. do something no one has ever done in the history of Atlanta’s famous “Magic City” strip club; stand on the top of the building and film a music video for “Magic”.
“Magic” has been big in Atlanta since summer, but it’s relatively new to the rest of the world. T.I.’s added star power should give it everything needed to become a hit outside of the A.
Future’s debut album Pluto is due on April 3rd.
