Chaka Khan doesn't agree with Clive Davis' decision to go on with pre-Grammy party hours after Whitney Houston's death (Video)

A friend of the late Whitney Houston, Chaka Khan, appeared on CNN’s Piers Morgan Tonight and talked about the untimely passing of her friend and the events that happened just hours later.

Khan, 58, discussed Clive Davis’ decision to throw the pre-Grammys party at the same hotel Houston died in just hours earlier.

"I stand on, whoever flew her out to perform at that party, should have provided someone to be there," she said, CBS News reports. "To somehow, keep the riff-raff out of the situation. To keep the dangerous people away."

Khan doesn’t believe the party should’ve happened, noting "I thought that was complete insanity," of Davis’ decision to have the party. Davis was Houston’s mentor and producer.

"And knowing Whitney I don't believe that she would've said, 'The show must go on.' She's the kind of woman who would've said, 'stop everything! I'm not going to be there.' I don't know what could motivate a person to have a party in the building where the person whose life he had influenced so enormously -- and whose life has been affected by hers. I don't understand how that party went on."

Khan, herself, didn’t attend the party because she said she was "paralyzed" after the news that Houston had died. "I couldn't put on makeup," she said. "I couldn't get dressed."

She also told Morgan that she had turned down the invitation to sing a tribute to her friend at the Grammys, saying it was too soon.

According to The Los Angeles Times, Davis said at the party, “Simply put, Whitney would have wanted the music to go on and her family asked that we carry on."
