[size=10pt]Whitney's mother was one of Elvis' backing singers for his tours across America in 1969. This was a time of great racial tensions between whites and blacks, but Elvis always insisted on having his black group The Sweet Inspirations with him on stage.<br />When he played the Houston Astrodome in 1970, the management of the Dome made it clear that the black girls were not wanted and they demanded that he cut them out of his act- Elvis furiously blew up at them and told them "If they don't go on, I don't go on!" Elvis demanded that the girls be picked up in a limo and treated with the same respect as him  .  :shock:  respect/ [/size]<br /><br />WHITNEY HOUSTON REMEMBERS MEETING ELVIS THE KING <br />
