The official site introduced a Whitney Barbie inspired by the “I Wanna Dance With Somebody” video, complete with a lilac dress, colorful earrings and microphone stand.
The official site announced WH1TNEY for August 7, collecting all eleven Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 singles. A translucent grape vinyl edition was offered for preorder.
A Black Music Month campaign invited fans to submit Spotify playlists. Selected playlists would appear on Whitney’s social channels and official Spotify page during June.
The official site reported that the video had passed one billion views earlier in February. It became the second video from The Bodyguard soundtrack to reach the milestone, following “I Will Always Love You.”
