I don't know about the above, but...When MJ died, immediately, lots of non-urban sites were calling Timberlake the new King of Pop. As if Timberlake was even worthy of holding MJ's pinky finger on his glittery glove.When Whitney died, allegedly Clive said that Jennifer Hudson (gasp!) could be the new Whitney.I also see them pushing Adele to the front to be the new superstar. Adele was virtually unheard of back in 2009, even though she won 2 Grammys. Winehouse dies and Adele is virtually a superstar overnight. The day after Whitney dies, she wins FOUR major Grammys.Before Whitney died, People Magazine had Adele on the cover for her health crisis in which her vocal cord had hemorrhaged. (Ironically, Whitney had the same surgery done years ago). After Whitney died, Adele is no longer on the cover for obvious reasons.I can also see Clive being a part of this sacrifice, if you will. Whit's voice was shot and everybody knew it. Drugs had taken a toll. By killing Whitney, he gets MILLIONS as an executive producer, Dolly Parton gets even richer (as the writer of IWALY) and countless people will be filthy rich and profiting from her death.I believe there are several elements at play here...
