During his time in Middle Eastern politics, Saddam Hussein used Whitney Houston's 'I Will Always Love You' as a song to win over his followers for his 2002 re-election bid.

The late American singer, also had another admirer. None other than Al-Qaeda leader Osama Bin Laden. This was revealed by author Kola Boof, who had a intimate love affair with the planner of the September 11th attacks.

Boof reveals in her book 'Diary Of A Lost Girl' how Bin Laden spoke on numerous occasions about wanting to meet the singer and convince her to become of his wives. This was a passion of his, although his beliefs forbid him to marry outside of his racial boundaries. He believed that she was a very 'Islamic' woman brainwashed by American culture and her husband Bobby Brown, whom he had spoken about having killed just to let Whitney 'free'.
