UPDATE: Prescription Drugs Discovered In Whitney Houston's Room, Singer Allegedy Drowned.


Hours after late singer Whitney Houston was pronounced dead at a Bevelry Hills hotel, new reports claim prescription drugs were discovered and she may have likely drowned.

New reports claim Houston's body was found in her hotel bathtub.

Police discovered "various pill bottles" in Houston's room, TMZ reported, adding that family members said Houston had been taking the prescription drug Xanax, which is often used to treat anxiety. When combined with alcohol, Xanax can cause drowsiness.

Houston was reportedly found in her bathtub -- TMZ says her head was underwater -- and could not be revived by paramedics after being removed from the tub. No alcohol was found in the preliminary sweep of Houston's room, TMZ reports, but there were multiple reports that Houston had been drinking with friends the night before at the hotel.
