A company named Base Entertainment will create a hologram of Whitney Houston and take it on an arena tour in 2020. “Whitney Houston was a talent beyond words, and her influence and artistry transcended all boundaries,” Brian Becker, Chairman & CEO, BASE Entertainment and BASE Hologram said. “What we are creating here is a new type of theatrical concert experience designed to capture that magic. When she performed there was an unmatched level of charisma and emotion to it – that’s what we are going to bring to audiences and it’s an honour to be able to help add to her legacy with this project,” he continued.
Whitney’s former Manager and President and CEO of The Estate of Whitney E. Houston Pat Houston had this to say: “Whitney is not with us but her music will live with us forever. We know we made the right decision partnering with BASE because they understand how important it is to produce a phenomenal hologram. They also know that engaging her fans with an authentic Whitney experience would resonate worldwide because of the iconic status that she created over three decades. Her fans deserve nothing less because she gave nothing less than her best.
