‘The Show M ust Go O n’ Documents Hollywood Turmoil
Goes behind the
scenes after
Whitney’s death
(AP) — When Grammy Awards
producers learned o f W hitney
Houston's death less than 24 hours
before the live telecast, they
scrapped parts of the script, added
performances and puzzled over how
best to honor the Grammy-winning
singer who died unexpectedly at
age 48.
Host LL Cool J said that address
ing the Grammy audience at the
Staples Center after Houston's death
was "definitely the most challeng
ing moment I've faced in my career."
He decided to open with a prayer,
and producers agreed, though none
could recall another network TV
event that began as such.
T his and o th er last-m in u te
changes made to the 54th annual
Grammy Awards are chronicled in a
new documentary, "A Death in the
Family: The Show Must Go On,"
which premiered last week at the
Academy of Television Arts and
Sciences.
The 25-m inute docum entary,
though it deals with show changes
made after Houston's death, isn't a
downer.
After Houston died, the chal
lenge was to "do som ething that
was respectful to W hitney," said
Ken Ehrlich, executive producer
of the Gram m ys for the past 23
years. "That set a tone that also
didn't lose the fact that there were
thousands of people who were
com ing to this event because they
had done som ething rem arkable
this year on their own, and they
needed to be treated with respect
as well."
The documentary includes inter
views with LL Cool J and Jennifer
Hudson, who performed a heartfelt
tribute to Houston.
February's Grammy Awards drew
nearly 40 million viewers, its second
largest audience ever. The biggest
Grammy audience — more than 43
million viewers — came in 1984,
when Michael Jackson won a record
eight awards for "Thriller."

footage from this

show scrambled
to honor Whitney
Houston, less
than 24 hours
after the singer's
sudden death.
