Though questions about the ethics of resurrecting deceased artists via hologram have been debated, Houston's sister Pat Houston, who is also the executor of her estate, said that Whitney would have approved.
'In 2011, Whitney and I discussed her idea of an intimate, unplugged concert tour,' Pat stated in a press release. 'It was a project we called Whitney Unplugged or An Evening with Whitney.'
'While Whitney's no longer with us, her voice and legacy will live on with us forever,' she continued.
