LL Cool J opened the 2012 Grammys by addressing the matter weighing on everyone’s minds – Saturday’s stunning death of Whitney Houston.

He continued, “For me, the only thing that feels right is to begin with a prayer, for a woman who we loved, for our fallen sister, Whitney Houston.”
The music world’s biggest names then bowed their heads as the rapper-actor offered some solemn words in Houston’s honor.
