Christina Aguilera Duet With Whitney Houston Hologram Leaks 2016 In Review

(Radio.com) Christina Aguilera Duet With Whitney Houston Hologram Leaks was a top 16 story of May 2016: A hologram of Whitney Houston was set to share the stage with Christina Aguilera for a duet during the season finale of The Voice.
