Whitney Houston's final music video has been released.'Celebrate' is a collaboration with Jordin Sparks and is taken from the upcoming film Sparkle.
The clip features Sparks and her co-stars enjoying a night in, alongside footage of Houston's scenes from the movie.
"We planned on it being Whitney and me, but she's not here, so we wanted to make it a tribute to her," Sparks told BET.
"So it's fun, upbeat and exciting - there are clips from the movie and the main cast is in the video, too. We're all just having a good time [and the premise is] they all come over to my house singing along to Whitney's music.
"And we're missing her and celebrating her as well. It's actually pretty simple, but when you watch it and hear her voice along with it, it makes it so much more."
Sparks added that she gets "speechless" when thinking about the fact that she features on Houston's final recording.
Watch the trailer for Sparkle, which is released on August 17, below:

Although I really didn't like her she did have a magnificent voice in her prime. Fitting tribute and hope it manages to break the chart as a celebration of her life good and bad.
