2011 Best New Artist winner Esperanza Spalding spoke to us about what stars had to say about Houston at Clive Davis' annual Grammy's party on Saturday.
"We're all thinking of Whitney." said Spalding. "Last night, a couple of people spoke at the Clive Davis party. Their take was we'll have time to mourn her, but tonight let's remember to celebrate her and what she meant to us and remember to acknowledge the people that are here because tomorrow isn't promised. So let's remember to say, you know, I love you, I appreciate what you do, today."
Singer-songwriter Jay Sean and rapper Rick Ross also talked to Cambio about the mood at the Grammy's and how they want Houston to be remembered.
"I think everyone's mood is slightly bittersweet," said Jay Sean. "It's a bit weird but I think eventually we all know the show must go on as they say and I think they've probably got something beautiful lined up for her."

"We lost an icon, we lost a beautiful and maybe [the] most talented singer of our time," said Ross. "I just pray we all remember her for her great accomplishments."
Houston's cause of death probably won't be known for weeks.
Houston was found underwater and unconscious in her bathtub at the Beverly Hills Hilton on Saturday afternoon. Officials have also confirmed that prescription drugs were found in her room. However, law enforcement will not say anything about her cause of death until the results of a toxicology test are in.
Houston's family is making arrangements to have her body flown to New Jersey for a funeral at the end of the week.
