Apparently the paper had the headline as: 'Whitney: The Last Photo'. Obviously these disturbing reports have caused controversy on a worldwide scale.

The national Enquirer has been known to publish content which is often questionable, the gory nature of this latest post has erupted outrage around the world. There has been massive worldwide interest in Whitney Houston since she passed away. Her funeral was streamed live on Saturday with permission from family, however these latest reports are bound to be shocking to her family, friends and fans.

Many top news sources are saying the US supermarket tabloid has gone too far with this one, the report goes on to say that Whitney was buried in what is said to be $500,000 worth of jewels and made up in her usual look, dressed in a purple dress.

This shock story arises many questions about how the pictures were obtained and taken in the first place. Some are saying  that the photo may still be a fake, however nobody as yet come from Whitney's family to protest this.

There is probably one thing for sure, the paper will sell a lot of copies, this seems to be a sad fact about todays gory interest in people (especially famous celebs)
