Australia Fans Walk Out on Whitney Houston

Submitted by Erica Bowen on February 25, 2010

SYDNEY, Australia — Whitney Houston has hit another sour note on her Australian tour.

Fans walked out of the singer's show last night in Sydney, two days after Houston was accused of a lackluster performance in Brisbane. The backlash prompted Houston's publicist to release a statement Thursday, dismissing rumors that the 46-year-old R&B star is experiencing health problems.

''Whitney is in great health and having a terrific time on her tour and with her fans," rep Kristen Foster said. ''Her fans were dancing and singing along with her and Whitney appreciates their support.''

But not everyone is saying "I Will Always Love You."

"It's the worst concert I've ever been to in my entire life," one disgruntled fan told CBS News of the Brisbane show.

"She couldn't entertain a dead rat," added another disappointed concertgoer.

Houston next performs Saturday at the Hope Estate Winery, where many fans have been calling to ask for refunds and express concerns about the show.

"Yeah, we've had a lot of calls from people ringing up to have a whinge," a spokeswoman for the Hunter Valley venue told Sydney's Daily Telegraph. "They've been asking if the concert is still going ahead, and, if it does, whether she'll make it back to the stage if she has a break. But the show is going ahead - there seems to be an overreaction out there."

The "Nothing But Love Tour" is the singer's first Australian concert trek in 22 years.

Last night my daughters and

Last night my daughters and myself went to the Hunter Valley Concert, it started off great with Anthony Callea and the other young man (my apologies for not remembering his name) they were amazing. I wish they had of stayed as it went downhill from there, the promoters should be held responsible for letting this concert got ahead, if it had not been for the loud music and Whitney's back up singers it would have been a complete disaster, we realise as Fans that she is older and of course her voice may not be the same as it used to be ,BUT she obviously has more problems that her voice, she seemed disorientated, talked more then she sang and moved around the stage like a seventy year old and also did not finish one song. Did she think she was fooling her fans, her behaviour was very unprofessional and I felt sorry for her dedicated fans who paid good money to watch. The only people that benefited by this was the promoters, who ripped off so many hard working dedicated fans of Whitney.
