Whitney Houston: The Greatest Love of All (1 hr) - Monday, February 6 at 12:00pm ET / 9:00am PT - From an early age, Grammy(R) Hall of Famer Whitney Elizabeth Houston showed the vocal range and star quality that would soon make her a legend in the music world. Winner of six Grammy awards, Houston was nominated a total of twenty-six times. This special features those who knew her as "Nippy," retraces her steps to stardom and revisits some of her most stunning performances.

Justin Timberlake: Dressed to Thrill (1 hr) - Tuesday, February 7 at 12:00pm ET / 9:00am PT - From humble beginnings in Shelby Forest singing in his father's church choir, to his first appearance as a Star Search contestant singing country at the age of 11, Justin Timberlake was destined for a life of fame. He joined the Mickey Mouse Club alongside Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera and Ryan Gosling and later formed the phenomenally successful boy band 'N Sync with colleague JC Chasez. With 38 Grammy nominations and nine wins, Timberlake is currently tied with Sting as the 10th most Grammy-nominated act in history.

Bruno Mars: Just the Way I Am (1 hr) - Wednesday, February 8 at 12:00pm ET / 9:00am PT - Bruno Mars has soared to fame from struggling songwriter to international superstar.
