Whitney Houston: "I Sang Myself out of My Clothes"

Saturday (October 17) during a performance on English television show "X-Factor" (an "American Idol"-esque show produced by Simon Cowell) Whitney Houston learned first-hand that the road to a comeback isn't without its challenges . Houston, who recently hit Oprah's couch and took over the "Good Morning America" stage in order to promote her new comeback album I Look to You, experienced a wardrobe malfunction during an energetic performance of the Swizz Beatz-produced "Million Dollar Bill," MTV.com reports.

News agencies also report, half way through her song, a strap on the back of her dress gave out! But the diva kept the show going and continued to belt it out. Thankfully, the strap snap didn’t result in any extra exposure. “I sang myself out of my clothes,” Whitney said following the incident, Access Hollywood reports.

In the meantime, despite an accidental wardrobe malfunction during a performance on Saturday night’s X Factor that resulted in a busted dress, Whitney Houston was all smiles and kisses as she left London’s Fountain Studios where she’d taped the hit UK reality competition, OK! Magazine reports.

It was also reported, it took the poise of a true diva to work her way through that, which is why there is no doubt the Houston still has it, and that her performance — combined with the excellent video for "Million Dollar Bill" — means that the comeback is complete, MTV.com reports.
