惠特妮·休斯頓（Whitney Houston），美國已故著名女歌手，國際樂壇流行天后、好萊塢巨星。她以強而有力的嗓音、一字多轉音的感染力與寬廣的音域，所被譽為美國第一嗓。Whitney是首張專輯銷量最高的女歌手和單張專輯銷量最高的女歌手。她也是Billboard音樂排行榜唯一一位連續締造7首冠軍單曲的女歌手。

根據吉尼斯世界紀錄，Whitney是獲獎最多的女歌手（獲獎490次）。在上世紀八十年代，惠特妮是少數能夠在MTV獲得大量的播出機會的黑人藝人之一，而那時是男性為主的搖滾時代。AOL Black Voices 曾説“雖然她的成功如同避雷針 (lightning rod) 一般，但總是能夠從她那優美且有力的聲音中得到證明。”她是唯一在美國擁有兩張最佳銷售前35名的專輯的女性歌手。惠特妮在全世界有超過2億的唱片銷售記錄。
