Whitney Houston was spotted looking worse for wear on a night out with friends just two days before her death.

The singer had been a guest at the Kelly Price & Friends Unplugged: For The Love Of R&B Grammy Party at Tru Hollywood and had even performed during the night.

A witness told Us Weekly at the time that Whitney Houston had appeared “wasted” and “moody” as she exited the night club.

The source said: “She reacted angrily to the security guards trying to get her into her car…and started cussing them out.”

The observer went on to say that even though Whitney Houston was stopping and signing autographs for fans, “she would get moody again in a split second”.

The source added: “It was sad because her fans noticed that she was really shaky as she left the venue. She definitely was not in control of herself.”

Dressed all in black, Whitney Houston appeared angry and agitated as she left the venue and looked like she had partied a little hard.

Wearing a short black dress the star emerged with her hair messed up and gestured aggressively to the waiting photographers.

The release of the photos showing the star’s erratic behavior and disheveled look sparked concern over the singer’s health.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Whitney Houston had a run-in with former X Factor contestant Stacy Francis that evening, after the star failed to remember the aspiring singer after she once pulled her onstage during one of her concerts.

A source told the website that Whitney Houston was “cordial at first” but the scene soon changed after Whitney’s friend, R&B star Ray J, stepped in.

An eyewitness said: “Whitney just got belligerent. Ray was trying to defend Stacy, telling Whitney, <<Stacy’s family!>>, but Whitney was feeling crowded out and hands were raised.”

The source added: “You didn’t know which way it could go there for a minute.”

When contacted by The Hollywood Reporter following the alleged incident, Stacy Francis said: “I have the utmost respect for Whitney Houston and her talent.”

However, Us Weekly reports that Whitney Houston “was fine” the following day as she conducted a sound-check to gear up for her performance at the pre-Grammys party.

A source told the magazine: “She was present and ready…She had water to keep her vocals clear, and was trying to not smoke.”

Whitney Houston has previously battled an addiction to crack cocaine and admitted to taking drugs with Bobby Brown during their turbulent 14 years of marriage.
