 After losing her Atlanta home to
foreclosure, Whitney Houston is facing even more money woes with the
forced sale of her personal belongings.
New Jersey's Speed of Sound storage company recently won the right to sell off Houston's old tour equipment and other belongings in order to pay a debt. The company claims Houston’s company, Nippy Inc, owed an estimated $200,000 in unpaid bills since May 2005. The A. J. Willner auction house in New Jersey will be the place where, on Tuesday, all kinds of Whitney goods will be up for grabs to the highest bidder.
Loot includes dozens of outfits, including sequinned Dolce & Gabbana bustiers, a fake leopardskin hat and four velvet bodysuits monogrammed with the initials WH. Many of the clothes, including costumes by Versace, Bob Mackie and Giorgio Armani, have been in storage since Houston’s My Love is Your Love tour in 1999.
Also included will be sound systems, two drum kits, three Schimmel grand pianos, a whip, a slot machine and a church pew. There is also a chair known as “Whitney’s throne.” |
