I remember reading recently that Whiney Houston was putting herself up for Mentor to Leona the recent X Factor winner and thinking to myself that Whitney needs a bandwagon to jump on to get back into the Media. I think I might have been not far from the truth as I see the following report is on DS. Looks like Whitney needs to get back into the earning sphere again and the limelight and very very quickly. I actually do wish her luck, because despite the fact that she fell a long way off the cliff of fame, she still has the most brilliant vocal and deserves another chance... so..go Whitney..

Whitney Houston has been forced to auction off some of her belongings in order to pay her debts.
The Grammy-winner will reportedly sell her sequin-encrusted bustiers, designer dresses, a series of awards and music equipment after she failed to pay the £76,000 bill to keep them in storage.
The Jersey-based storage company, Speed of Sound, has been granted the court's permission to put Houston's old stage gear up for sale after her company, Nippy Inc, stopped paying the bills in 2005.
Among the 400-plus items is a Schimmel custom-made, transparent grand piano - worth up to £200,000 when new.
