editorial comment The power of prayer? Well, it did work for Dubya so.....

A YEAR after her first reported stay in rehab, Whitney Houston has again checked in. "Whitney Houston has re-entered a rehabilitation facility today," her publicist, Nancy Seltzer, told The Associated Press on Wednesday. She declined to provide details.

The news was first reported by syndicated entertainment TV show Access Hollywood.

In March 2004, Houston checked herself into an undisclosed rehabilitation centre. In an interview with Diane Sawyer on ABC's Primetime in 2002, the pop diva said she had used cocaine, marijuana and pills. Until then, she had denied using drugs.

She has said she was using the power of prayer to help her get over drugs.

Houston, 41, has been working with producer Clive Davis on a comeback album.

The Grammy-winning singer is known for her rendition of I Will Always Love You and her role in the 1992 film The Bodyguard. Houston and R&B singer Bobby Brown have been married since 1992.
