At Whitney Houston's 2012 funeral, which was broadcast live on CNN, Kevin Costner delivered a 17-minute eulogy. But if the network had had its way, his remarks would have run much shorter, the actor says.
Costner, who co-starred with Houston in the 1992 romantic thriller The Bodyguard, was one of eight speakers at the esteemed singer's funeral. Initially, he was hesitant to accept the invitation to speak, but at the encouragement of Houston's aunt, singer Dionne Warwick, he changed his mind.
