[From People] FRIDAY, JULY 2: Whitney Houston has become more famous in recent years for her personal woes than for her music. But the six-time Grammy winner is hoping to change all that, teaming up with Natalie Cole and cousin Dionne Warwick for their Soul Divas tour in Germany. The four-date jaunt will include stops in Berlin, Hamburg and Munich. (Houston, who underwent a 30-day stint in rehab in May, has already received some David Hasselhoff-style love from the Germans, picking up a lifetime achievement award at the Women's World Awards there.) On July 22, Houston will then hop over to China, making her debut in that country with a performance in Shanghai.

The American Film Institute's "100 Years... 100 Songs" list showcases the greatest musical moments in cinematic history. To coincide with the AFI announcement, a national survey from Best Buy provides a look at which songs make Americans laugh, cry and dance at the movies. Whitney Houston favours in the Best Buy survey ranking second to Olivia Newton John as the singer that has the most credible acting performance (for 'The Bodyguard') and 'I Will Always Love You ranks second to The Righteous Brothers' 'Unchained Melody' as best love song from a movie.

'We are together. We love each other. I know me and I know the -- . They can talk all they want and write all they want. I know the truth.": Whitney Houston as quoted in Liz Smith's column at the Christian Dior D'Trick launch party last week.
The German 'Spiegel' magazine has published a report about the 'Soul Divas' ticket sales. Below is a translated summary: According to the article only 20% of the tickets for the 'Soul Divas' concert tour have been sold to date. Tchibo's spokesperson, Joachim Klähn, said he is still expecting a significant rise in sales shortly before the actual concert dates. The article cites Tchibo's unusual distribution system (tickets are only available at the Tchibo stores, via online-booking at Tchibo.de or by calling a telephone hotline) as one of the main reasons for the rather poor resonance. Within the industry, reactions range from mockery to disbelieve about Tchibo's price strategy as well as the line-up. [Thanks Sabine]

with Kelly Osbourne making her first post-rehab appearance and Ali Landry
proudly posing after the end of her two-week marriage to Mario Lopez. "It's been wonderful. It's been wonderful," Bobby told
