NP Rank:
Whitney Houston - is she 'ready' for a come back?
Tonight internet users are questioning Whitney Houston's comeback performance on sites like Twitter after a 'poor show' on the UK television show X Factor on Sunday night.
She sang her new single Million Dollar Bill, her voice was stong but her physical appearance seemed slow and problems with her clothing after her silver dress came loose at the back and at one point it looked as if she may trip over as her low dress seemed to come down to her heels.
After her song was complete she spoke to host Dermot O'Leary but did not speak clearly, was distant and paused a lot between answers.
This was Whitney's first appearance on UK TV in 12 years.
Whitney Houston's return to the charts was marred by a worrying live performance on The X Factor.
The soul diva appeared on the ITV1 talent show to perform her comeback single ‘Million Dollar Bill’ but suffered a wardrobe malfunction when straps on her dress snapped, forcing the 46-year-old to tone down her high-energy dance routine.
Questions were also raised about Houston's physical condition as she looked drowsy and slurred her words when being interviewed by host Dermot O'Leary.
Her alarming performance came exactly a week after former Take That idol Robbie Williams sang his latest offering 'Bodies' in a wide-eyed and very heated performance.
Fans inundated the show's official website to express their shock and disgust at the performance.
One fumed: "What a huge waste of her talent. People should watch and learn what harm one can do to ones self. I hope for Whitney and all her fans she gets a grip and rejoins this planet."

After watching her myself she doesn't seem right... with what happened to her is is a lot to come back from and let's hope she sorts herself out soon.
