Whitney Houston was under water and apparently unconscious when she was found in a Beverly Hills hotel bathtub, police said Monday, as the singer’s family prepared to send her body to her native New Jersey for a funeral.
The singer was found Saturday by a member of her personal staff at approximately 3:30 p.m. She was pulled from the tub by members of her staff, and hotel security was promptly notified, Beverly Hills police Lt. Mark Rosen said.
Further details of Houston’s death are not being released to preserve the integrity of the investigation, he said.
“As of right now, it’s not a criminal investigation,” Rosen told a news conference. “We have concluded our portion of the investigation at the hotel.”
Rosen said it was a coroner’s case and police were awaiting the determination of the cause of death. The coroner’s office says toxicology testing is continuing.
There were no indications of foul play and no obvious signs of trauma on Houston’s body, but officials were not ruling out any causes of death until they have toxicology results, which will likely take weeks to obtain.
‘Happy Grad’ is an amazing commercial that has fast become a Superbowl favorite, all from Chevrolet’s online competition.
Commercial summary: A new grad is blindfolded and his parents have bought him a mini fridge for college. However, behind the mini fridge is the neighbor’s new bright yellow Chevy Camaro, which the grad thinks is his actual present. Hilarity ensues; He freaks out, calls his friends, asks his girlfriend to marry him without realizing that the car is not his, while the parents look not knowing what to say. At the end, the actual owner and there next door neighbor drives off and the happy grad thinks his car has been stolen.
The spot was done by Zack Borst who submitted it in Chevrolet’s Route66 online competition. After Borst beat out hundreds of submissions from filmmakers in 32 countries, he won the right to have his spot shown to over 100 million people watching the Super Bowl ad; which is a nice way of showing a very creative spot on a shoestring budget.
