Whitney Houston May Be Battling Emphysema

There are conflicting reports that singer and actress Whitney Houston may be ill with the early stages of emphysema. While her publicist denies the reports, other credible sources seem to indicate that the reports are indeed factual. THE NATIONAL ENQUIRER is also reporting that some medical sources are the main source of information for this story.

There have been some recent incidents that call into question the health of the singer, including problems with her voice that only seem to further fuel this story. However, until the singer or her agents officially acknowledge whether she is indeed ill or not, then this story remains one of speculation.

The singer has had some serious personal problems in recent years, including three trips to rehab.
