Jennifer Hudson is showing her love for Whitney Houston in a new TV special.

The hour-long tribute, We Will Always Love You: A Grammy Salute to Whitney Houston, airing November 16 on CBS, will feature performances from JHud, Celine Dion, Usher and gospel singer CeCe Winans.

Other stars like Halle Berry, actress Taraji P Henson, LL COOL J and Britney Spears will also appear to talk about Whitney’s legendary career.

The night will feature some of the most memorable performances of the diva’s career including some of the six-time winner’s classic Grammy moments, along with previously unreleased footage and exclusive interviews with the star, who passed away in February.

Jennifer even came up with the ultimate reason to watch the special, in less than 140 characters no less.

Watch We Will Always Love You: A Grammy Salute to Whitney Houston this Friday, November 16 on CBS at 10 pm ET/PT.
