Whitney Houston is reported to have left rehab.

The singer was taken to Eric Clapton's Crossroads Clinic in Willoughby Bay, Antigua by court order on March 23.

Clive Davis, who first discovered Houston, told US TV show "Access Hollywood": "Whitney is out of rehab, and we are meeting in about 10 days."

"There is no-one like Whitney. If you go to the writers, the producers, the arrangers, they can't wait for her to come back."

The BMG boss added: "She has been through a battle, but she is the best singer, so I cannot wait to be in the studio with her."

Lil' John is one of the artists reported to be working on new material for Houston.

Her last studio album was November 1998's "My Love is Your Love". *

* Whitney's last studio album was 'One Wish: The Holiday Album' (2003) and before that 'Just Whitney...' (2002).
