Last night, the industry took a moment to remember Whitney Houston. The 2012 Billboard Awards included a touching tribute to the singer, who was also honored with the Millennium Award.

Before daughter Bobbi Kristina and manager / sister-in-law Pat Houston took to the stage to accept the award, John Legend and Jordin Sparks performed two of Whitney's biggest hits.

Legend sang “Greatest Love of All,” while Sparks brought tears in the eyes of the audience with her rendition of “I Will Always Love You.”

During both performances, the cameras zoomed in on Bobbi Kristina, who was hardly able to fight back tears.

The video above also includes her touching speech upon accepting the award honoring her mother's career.
