‘Glee’ Pays Tribute to Whitney Houston in Valentine’s Day Episode

Tuesday’s Valentine’s Day episode features Amber Riley performing “I Will Always Love You” and a special tribute to Houston

In a bit of tragically good timing, Tuesday's Valentine's Day-themed episode of "Glee" will include a performance of Whitney Houston's signature hit "I Will Always Love You," sung by McKinley High's own diva, Mercedes (Amber Riley).

"Purely coincidentally, the episode contains Mercedes singing 'I Will Always Love You,' the Dolly Parton song Houston made famous in 'The Bodyguard,'" a Fox representative told TheWrap. "The producers have decided to dedicate the episode to Houston's memory with a card in the end credits."
