Although her family heavily criticized Lifetime and Angela Bassett over the unauthorized biopic, fans of Whitney Houston will no doubt delight in Whitney nabbing an impressive 4.5 million viewers when it aired Saturday night.
While Whitney was unable to outperform 2014’s Flowers in the Attic in viewers (6.1 million), it did best Lifetime’s most recent biopic Aaliyah: The Princess of R&B (3.2 million), which also received heavy criticism from the late singer’s family.
In all, Lifetime drew nearly 12 million viewers for its Whitney Houston-themed night, which is great news for the network.
