Six-time Grammy® winner WhitneyHouston was one of the most successful female recording artists of all time. – WHIT-NEY. “CAN I BE ME” will offer a raw and uncensored look at Houston, exploring the impact her life and death had on the people around her and the world of music. “Can I be me?” was Houston’s favorite expression, one she used so much that her band memeber sampled it to play at the start of rehearsals.
The film explores Whitney’s central dilemma: even though she had made millions of dollars, had more consecutive number ones than The Beatles and was recognized as hav-ing one of the greatest voices of all time, she still couldn’t do what she wanted to do.
