Whitney’s Funeral, More details are emerging about the funeral for Whitney Houston, which will be held tomorrow morning our time.

And just like Michael Jackson attention is also turning to the role the singer’s doctors could have played in her death.

Kevin Costner is set to lead the tributes at Houston’s funeral.

The 57-year-old actor – who starred alongside the late singer in 1992 movie The Bodyguard – will address mourners at her memorial service at the New Hope Baptist Church in Newark, New Jersey.

Houston’s godmother Aretha Franklin and music legend Stevie Wonder are set for perform at the funeral and her mentor Clive Davis will also deliver a eulogy.

The 79-year-old record executive had reportedly been paying Whitney’s bills – but he is not planning to finance the funeral – and has been talking to her family “hourly” to help them deal with their grief.

A family source told People: “Clive has been a complete rock for her family this entire time. He’s been with her since the beginning, and he’s been everything to them. They’re leaning on him for emotional support. He talks to them hourly, and he’s a very big part in planning her funeral.
