Whitney Houston's fans around the world will be able to watch the late singer's funeral online, Houston's publicist has confirmed.

The Associated Press will be allowed to bring one camera to the service, which will stream a feed to its LiveStream site. 

Saturday's private, invitation-only funeral will take place at the New Hope Baptist Church in Newark, New Jersey, where Houston grew up singing in the choir. Family friend and gospel singer Marvin Winans will deliver the eulogy.

Houston, who was born in Newark, died last Saturday in her Beverly Hilton hotel room. According to her death certificate, Houston will be laid to rest at the Fairview Cemetery in Westfield, New Jersey, where her father is buried.
