Kevin Costner Says He Was Whitney Houston's 'Imaginary Bodyguard'

  • Recently, Kevin Costner opened up about his friendship with Whitney Houston and how he was Whitney's 'imaginary bodyguard' during filming of The Bodyguard.
  • Costner said about wanting her in The Bodyguard film, "I loved her. It's not like this giant mystery. So I knew that she should be the one."
  • He continued on how he ended up being her protector on set: "I started to guide her. And I wasn't trying to usurp my director, but I had made a promise to her, not to f---ing him.”
  • He added, "I don't know what it was, but we had a moment, and I realized that the world had a higher idea of who we were, so I basically embraced it. I was her imaginary bodyguard."
  • Do you think The Bodyguard is Whitney Houston's best role? Why?
