This is just sad and truly might end with a tragedy. Kicking a dead body around just for fun is also sad, people.

It makes me a little sad that someone with such an astounding natural talent- her voice was so unique-could ruin it with drink and drugs.

When you think how professional singers look after their voices, she must have been aware that every pipe she smoked and every shot she downed was ruining her gift. Addiction or self-destruction, I don’t know but what a waste.

Whenever a classic Whitney hit song from the 80s plays on the radio, I always tune in … and I always think what a waste the last 10-15 years have been for her.

mln, your assumptions are correct – she had issues with drugs way before Bobby Brown. They have separated and she is still messing up. Look at Nicole Richie and Paris for example: Nicole’s life is way better since they broke up while Paris has gone downhill. Only Whitney can help herself.

Hard to believe… There are countless couples who’d do anything to become parents (including being on the long ‘waiting list’ for adoptions)… But Whitney & Bobby, who are beyond inept/horrible examples… manage to have not *one*, but a *few*. (Even adopting one, what the fuck was that agency thinking?! )

If Hollywood ever did a real PSA against drugs instead of glamorizing them they’d show Elvis before and after drugs.

They’d show Robert Plant before and after drugs.

And then they’d play Whitney’s voice before and after drugs. Seem fun, but if you don’t grow out of that shit in your youth look at the human wreckage drug and alcohol abuse causes to the greatest talents. She was phenomenal and now she’s a scratchy voiced wreck b/c she had to make adulthood a 24/7 coke party with a felon.

@Crystal Cat as I said Bobby is no angel but I used to live in West Orange NJ (Whitney is from East Orange) way back before she was with Bobby there were stories of drugs and debauchery…Drug addicts get progressively worse and as they age hide their problems less and less, the thing that ultimately sucked out Whitney’s soul was drugs.

#17:
I disagree with your assessment b/c there have been numerous reports that Whitney’s so-called “beatings” at the hands of Bobby Brown were drunken brawls that got simply out of control. Given Ms. Houston’s personality on “Being Bobby Brown”, I believe it.

Also I don’t think Mr. Brown had anything at all to do with the drug busts of Whitney’s brother Gary or her cousin, Dionne Warwick. Further proof is Whitney’s on-again off-again relationship with Kim K’s ex and Brandy’s brother, Ray J who has substance abuse issues of his own.

@Brittney

I have always hated that too. It’s as if they are less important because they are adopted.

And yeah, her kid never had a chance with parents like that. So sad really.

I hate that celebrity kids never lose the “adopted” prefix. It doesn’t work that way in reality; no one introduces their children as adopted or biological. They’re theirs, period. I don’t think it should be any different for famous kids.
