About this photo
The focus is Whitney Houston on the cover of her single "I Wanna Dance With Somebody (Who Loves Me)". She is smiling and wearing a white tank top and blue jeans, with her hand tucked into her waistband. The mood is vibrant and joyful, typical of a pop music album cover from the 1980s. Her iconic voluminous curly hair and bright smile are particularly notable. ON-SCREEN TEXT: Whitney RIS 1 I Wanna Dance With Somebody (Who Loves Me)
