While the last images of Whitney Houston alive depicted a troubled and worse for wear star, photographs uncovered from the days before her fame tell a very different story.
She may be remembered for her beautiful singing voice, but Houston, who died on February 11 aged 48, in fact began her career as a model.
Images of the star modelling for Seventeen Magazine in 1981 show a fresh-faced and hopeful young girl who had her whole life ahead of her.
Fresh-faced: Whitney graced the cover of Seventeen magazine two years before signing a record deal
Two years after the singer graced the cover of the teen magazine, she landed a record deal with Arista and began putting together her first album.
The cause of death is yet to be confirmed, pending toxicology reports which are expected to be released in a few weeks. Houston was laid to rest on Sunday in her homeland of Newark, New Jersey, following her funeral the day before.
