Jennifer
Hudson, Celine Dion and Usher will pay tribute to Whitney Houston in a new
televised concert.
The trio
will be among a number of stars taking part in 'We Will Always Love You: A
Grammy Salute To Whitney Houston', which will air on November 16 on CBS in the
US.
Never-before-seen
footage of Whitney - who died in February at the age of 48 - will also be
included in the concert, as will some of her biggest performances throughout
her illustrious career.
Other
star performers are to be announced and the special will be recorded at the
Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles on October 11.
Jennifer
Hudson performed just the day after Whitney died earlier this year, singing her
song 'I Will Always Love You', and she is believed to have broken down in tears
while rehearsing due to the enormity of the task.
Speaking
at the time of her death, Beyonce Knowles said Whitney was ''the ultimate
legend''.
She
proclaimed: ''The loss of Whitney Houston is painful. I remember meeting
Whitney for the first time when I was 15. She was the ultimate legend. The
ultimate woman.
''Not
only was she confident, poised, stunningly beautiful and intelligent, but she
was sincere and kind. She took the time to make everyone feel like they were
very important to her.''
