Whitney will get real on Oprah

Whitney Houston will be divulging all, according to Oprah, on her show on Monday. Whitney got mixed reviews on her Good Morning America concert, which also happened to be her latest album's release date, but I happen to think that her appearance on Oprah will be what we're all waiting for. Oprah has a certain quality that makes everyone want to open up to her, but I think the Whitney situation will be another case entirely.
There are so many questions to be answered about the drugs, the domestic abuse, the horrible interview with Diane Sawyer and while I'll definitely be watching, I wonder if Whitney will finally get the redemption she's seeking. The black community can be very welcoming and forgiving but also very cold and cynical. Will we embrace Whitney's homecoming on Oprah and put her past behind us or will we commend her for her honesty and amazing story of self redemption?
Whitney's back to tear down the house on this one.
