"BEVERLY HILLS — She didn't sing, but Whitney Houston's presence alone made her shine among a room full of glittering stars at Saturday's 17th Carousel of Hope Ball.
It was the singer's first step back into the spotlight since seeking treatment for substance abuse and leaving longtime husband Bobby Brown.
‘I feel great,’ said a blond Houston, wearing diamonds and black Armani. Sounding more calm and focused than she has in years, Houston clearly was touched by the outpouring of love.
‘She's looking at the light, instead of darkness,’ said Houston's pal and the evening's honoree, Quincy Jones, who has known the singer since she was 16.
Houston was escorted to the event by music producer Clive Davis, the night's other honoree. He noted, ‘She's been through emotional trauma, and everybody's rooting for her. We're going to make a killer album.’
Houston sat at the main table, where Halle Berry (in gold Elie Saab) was seated with boyfriend Gabriel Aubry. The semi-annual event has raised more than $70 million for childhood diabetes, and Berry, a diabetic, said she has been feeling well and remains hopeful for a cure."
