Whitney Houston's cousin, Dionne Warwick, complimented "Yellowstone" star Kevin Costner on his eulogy to his "The Bodyguard" co-star at her 2012 funeral and recalled asking him to speak at the memorial.
The 82-year-old singer told Fox News Digital that while she was unable to attend the gala since she was in Nashville working on her new duet with Dolly Parton, she expressed her admiration for Costner as she recalled his moving words at Houston's funeral.

"I do know that Kevin spoke beautifully at her transitional," the "I Say A Little Prayer" hitmaker remembered.
She continued, "In fact, when I called him and asked him to speak at her funeral, he asked me, 'I don't know what I'm going to say. I don't know what I'm going to say.'"
