Whitney Houston's godmother, Aretha Franklin, will perform Saturday (Feb. 18) at the singer's New Jersey funeral, ET Online reports. According to a source, music biz luminary Clive Davis personally asked the soul legend to sing at the event, which is set to take place at Newark's New Hope Baptist Church, where Whitney first found her voice.

The source says that when Franklin was asked to participate, she responded with some variation of, "How could I say no?"

The Rev. Jesse Jackson is also due to appear, NJ.com reports, though he's not scheduled to speak.

"I come to show support for the family," Jackson said.
