The estate-approved Whitney Houston hologram concert will arrive this October for a lengthy residency at Harrah’s Las Vegas. Over five years in the works, 'An Evening With Whitney: The Whitney Houston Hologram Concert' made its debut in 2020 London, featuring holograms of Houston from all stages of her career alongside in-the-flesh backup singers, dancers, and musicians. Base Hologram Productions CEO Marty Tudor told Rolling Stone of their efforts to make a “tasteful” homage to the late singer: “It’s a complicated mix of disciplines if you will. I could’ve made Whitney fly around stage if I wanted to, but she didn’t. One of the things that’s really critical is we want to be authentic. To me, it’s creepy and eerie if you make the artist do something they never would’ve done. But if you are authentic and live within the rules of who they were, this is a celebration of her legacy”.

Dr. Dre’s 'The Chronic', 'Cheap Trick at Budokan', Tina Turner’s 'Private Dancer', Dusty Springfield’s 'Dusty in Memphis', the Whitney Houston song 'I Will Always Love You', and Village People’s 'Y.M.C.A.' are among the new batch of records to be archived in the U.S. Library of Congress, the LA Times reports. Other records deemed “worthy of preservation because of their cultural, historical and aesthetic importance” include 'Fiddler on the Roof' Original Broadway cast from 1964, WGBH broadcast of the Boston Symphony on the day of the John F. Kennedy assassination etc.

"It’s a film principally and poignantly focused on the absence of Whitney, an aching void felt as much in life as in death. Many of us missed Whitney even before she left; this imperfect documentary preys calmly and effectively on that longing" - Guardian writes about a new documentary, Kevin Macdonald’s 'Whitney' newly premiered at Cannes.
