BEHIND THE SCENES TRIVIA : Was Whitney Houston's favorite movie. She would later gain remake rights for the film around 2000. Her original plan was to have the late R&B artist Aaliyah star as the title character before she passed away. The film was eventually released a decade later as Sparkle (2012) starring Houston herself and Jordin Sparks.
