A photo of Whitney Houston laying dead in her coffin was published on the cover National Enquirer, with a bold headline 'Whitney: The last photo. The magazine claims the photo was taken at the private viewing  although does not reveal who took the picture. Whitney who died aged 48 on February 11  was wearing jewels worth $500,000 and had gold slippers on her feet, according to the publication. The photo has led to an outcry for many of Houston's fans and news publications. Fans took to Twitter on Wednesday, stating that publishing the photo was "low." The official cause of death is yet to be revealed, pending the release of toxicology reports which could still be several weeks off.
