Cissy recently released wrote a book entitled, Remembering Whitney
One shocking revelation during the show was Whitney’s brother, Michael Houston, who admitted publicly for the first time that he was the one who actually introduced his famous sister to freebasing cocaine.

While Micheal’s “confession” finally lets Bobby off the hook, Cissy admits she’s still not a fan of her deceased daughter’s ex-husband.
Watch video of Cissy Houston’s “Next Chapter” below…
Who Was Whitney Houston?
While growing up in New Jersey, Whitney Houston was close to both of her big brothers, Gary and Michael. Since his sister’s death, Michael, who many in the family called Whitney’s twin, hasn’t spoken publicly. Now, Michael reveals how he introduced Whitney to drugs in the ’80s, long before Whitney married Bobby Brown. Watch as he discusses the guilt he lives with every day.
In 2009, Whitney Houston sat down with Oprah to discuss her battle with addiction, her troubled marriage to Bobby Brown and more. In what would be her last interview with Oprah, Whitney recounted the day her mother, Cissy Houston, staged an intervention and got her to go to rehab. Cissy describes that day to Oprah and reveals why it was difficult for her to watch that 2009 interview.
Why Cissy Houston Staged an Intervention for Whitney Houston:
When Whitney Houston was 16, she met Robyn, the woman who would become her best friend. From the start, Whitney’s mother, Cissy, says she was critical of their relationship. For years, rumors persisted that Robyn and Whitney were involved in a romantic relationship—something both women repeatedly denied. Now, Cissy addresses the speculation and reveals why she wouldn’t have condoned a lesbian relationship.

Now, Cissy addresses the speculation and reveals why she wouldn’t have condoned a lesbian relationship.
Cissy Houston has a few words, and a few more, for Bobby Brown.
In “Remembering Whitney
“I do believe her life would have turned out differently,” Houston writes. “It would have been easier for her to get sober and stay sober. Instead she was with someone who, like her, wanted to party. To me, he never seemed to be a help to her in the way she needed.”
“Remembering Whitney
Houston said she has no contact with Brown and didn’t see any reason to, not even concerning her granddaughter, Bobbi Kristina.
She reaffirmed her comments in the book that Whitney Houston would have been better off without him. “How would you like it if he had anything to do with your daughter?” she asked.
Brown is portrayed as childish and impulsive, hot tempered and jealous of his wife’s success. Cissy Houston describes a 1997 incident when Whitney sustained a “deep cut” on her face while on a yacht with Brown in the Mediterranean.
Whitney insisted it was an accident; Brown had slammed his hand on a table, breaking a plate. A piece of china flew up and hit Whitney, requiring surgery to cover any possible scar. The injury was minor, the effects possibly fateful.
“She seemed sadder after that, like something had been taken away from her,” Houston writes.
Brown and Whitney Houston divorced in 2007, after 15 years of marriage. When she learned that her daughter was leaving Brown, Cissy Houston was “extremely relieved” and “thanking God so much I’m sure nobody else could get a prayer in to Him.”

Cissy Houston writes that sometimes she hears a doorbell ring and thinks it’s Whitney, or sees a vase in a different place and wonders if her daughter is around. Some nights, Cissy Houston wakes up crying, not sure at first where she is.
“But then I get up out of bed, wipe my eyes, wash my face, and lie back down to my sleep. Because that is all I can do,” she writes. “I am so grateful to God for giving me the gift of 48 years with my daughter. And I accept that He knew when it was time to take her.”
What do you think of Cissy and Michael’s “Whitney” revelations?
I love Cissy and still play Whitney’s videos from time to time cause I will always miss her. I think Cissy shared the last feelings she cares to say about the life and loss of her daughter. As painful as it must be, only a mother whoes lost a child whether young,old,star or not understands what she is going through. I never knew she had another brother. Guessed all sentences with "We" as kids referred to Whit and Gary. Hope only the best for Cissy. She did her very best.
He didn’t make her keep using it though. Just sayin.
From studying her death, it is quite obvious what her reason of dying was: homicide. Manner: drowning. You cannot accidentally drown in less than a foot of water. Someone has to push you head in the water. When there is water in the lungs, that is indication she was breathing at the time her head was put under water. The only question, however, is was she lethargic. The way her eyes were shut, probably so. This indicates she fell asleep under water – which explains why she did not fight for air. So i’m not understanding your drug comment.
I never believed Bobby was the culprit in her introduction to drugs, people get caught up with the MIS representation of these artists.. Whitney was a Newark hood chick period point blank and Arista did wonders on her image for the public, behind closed doors was another matter all together..This may have come too late..people believe what they want to believe regadless of truth..but trust and believe Being Bobby Brown was the REAL Whitney the drugs only embellished who she really was
Ummm no, I’m from the Newark the area, and Whitney was not a "Newark hood chick". Whitney was born in Newark in 1963, and after the riots in 1967, they moved to East Orange. Whitney went to private schools all her life and graduated from an all girls private high school, she was quite sheltered actually. The middle brother, who was the wild child, was riding on Whitney’s success and coat tail, introduced her to the drugs, alot of folks from Jersey been knew this and i’m glad it’s coming out. Also, I do not believe that Robyn and Whitney were lovers, BUT I do feel that Cissy didn’t like the relationship because it could have had a bad affect on Whitney’s career, because Robyn is a lesbian.
At the end of the day Bobby still didn’t do it
Right, but please refrain from using the "hood chick from Newark" reference when that was not the case.
You’re right Whitney said herself she started doing it back in the hood her words to Jamie Foster Brown. She might not have lived there but that’s where she started it.
Thank you, her own Mother said that Whitney was not from no hood. She said that during her morning interview with Al Roker. Whitney only started claiming hoodlife when black folks started ridiculing her for being "whitewashed". Della Reese told Larry Elder a black conservative radio personality that some in the Houston family felt she married Bobby, because of people perceiving her as not being black enough.
Thank YOU!! Exactly! Plus Bobby was younger than her, she was the boss of their relationship. Big ups to New Edition too.
Feel bad for Ms. Cissy…now will people stop blaming Bobbi, he couldn’t help her because he’s an addict himself. Let’s let her RIP now.
I believe Whitney had some pretty high standards she had to live up to, from her church upbringing, to her mother’s standards to what was expected of her from the industry. Had she just been allowed to live without hiding or putting up a facade and the continuous pressures and been allowed to live and love as she wished and sing, she may not have turned to drugs to dull the pain. She may have used anyway and been able to get past it had she been accepted for who she really was…just maybe she may still be here. Not blaming her mother but I would love and accept my kids whomever they chose to love. I stayed on my son about drugs and now he’s in the military living his life…clean. I even drug tested him occasionally. Yes as mothers we do the best we can and the best we know how and sometimes and second guess and wander if it was enough, or too much….RIP Nippy and Ms Cissy, I hope she finds peace…
This is all sony subliminal programming via satanic oprah to make the public believe it was drugs that killed whitney….when anyone with a little common sense that reads her autopsy report in FULL knows she was murdered…bobby better watch out
Whatever it is just put it down. LOl
put the truth down? typical sheep response lol
Hmmm, I know what mon88 is talking about. Don’t believe everything you read, there’s definitely more to Whitney’s death.
i too believe there is more to whit’s death than is coming to life. her body guard was instructed not to leave her in the tub and they never let her take baths, but this time she was allowed to have a bath? not only that but when you fall asleep in the tub the water is not that high and when you do fall asleep, you wake right up when and if water does get in your nose i don’t care how high you are. if you ask me, something went horribly wrong like with pac and big…someone didn’t want whit to tell the truth about something..whit was upset that morning and was calling for her manager all day and her manager never came, even though she was her boss and breadwinner. something aint right here….rest in peace child of God…you will be missed truly missed!
Uhm…Bobby was on tour w/ New Edition when he got the news…so…watch out for what??
Parents do the best they can…children choose their lives and you blame someone else…yet you claiming you Christian?? Please!
So Glad someone sees it. I just wish the public would wisen up.
They don’t know the truth, don’t sweat the ignorant
And people blamed Bobby SMH… If anything she got him on that strong stuff
Johnny Gill has said this a few times, Whitney has access to better dope. She was the one who wanted the marriage Bobby Brown was just a kid. Johnny Gill said many times Whitney was different behind closed door and Wendy Williams one of the few to expose that side. I dont see how Bobby Brown could be the blame for her death.
Amen!
[...] year old Cissy recently released a book in honor of her daughter titled “Remembering Whitney“ and inside she stated her daughters life would have turned out different if her and Bobby [...]
Rest In Peace just does not mean that anymore, let the dead be dead. Someone always have a book to sell or a story to tell.
lol yeah this has become a money making thing for the family , it’s terrible…the thing is this, her mother was always on the road touring and whit’s daddy raised them the best they could. had her and her mother been closer this wouldn’t have happened..i blame cissy!
I never believed those lies told on Bobby. He could have blasted everyone a long time a go but he didnt and was the fall guy for many years. Whitney came into the industry with a drug history. She was a multi platinum artist with money and fame and the industry crowd associated with this life style usually parties hard and does more drugs than you can imagine. We see them poised polished and dressed the part but thats good marketing. Most times regardless of their race these artist are dressed up gangsters.We label them wholesome and squeeky clean based on what we see. Imaging and stylist do wonders.
Oh lord..more lies…Whitney did not "come into the game with a drug history". Whitney first recorded with Chaka Khan at 15 in 1978 singing in the background for "I’m Every Woman" and was not using drugs then. Whitney started dibbling and dabbling AFTER a few years of being a sucessful artist in the late 80s. People need to get their facts straight.
I’m glad the Truth was told….keeping All the Houstons in Prayer
Cissy has GOT to stop blaming Bobby for Whitney’s indiscretions. Yes, Bobby had his ways but Whitney did to and she was NOT a saint. They BOTH had an addiction problem. It would’ve been the same thing if Whitney had not married Bobby and had ended up with another man who was an addict. Their addiction is to blame for the way their lives turned out. It is unfortunate how Whitney’s life ended but the whole blaming Bobby thing has gotten really old now. Whitney had her own path in life to walk, and she chose her path. Bobby didn’t choose it for her. Everything in life happens for a reason, even the bad stuff. We may not understand it but it all has a purpose. None of us are perfect and a person shouldn’t be scrutinized for their mistakes. We don’t have to answer for the next persons indiscretions, we only have to answer for our own so we need to stop judging and pushing blame. Just accept responsibility for our own actions and let the other person deal with their own demons in their own time. And can Whitney PLEASE rest in PEACE?? No more books about her life, no more interviews about what people perceived she was going through. Let’s be thankful for the GREAT and AWESOME music she provided us with and allow her to rest in peace. Leave Whitney the heck ALONE.
Exactly! She was damn near 30 years old when she.started dating bobby. I don’t care what nobody says….you just don’t jump into doing crack or cocaine that late stage in life. I just won’t believe it.
Now bobby probably made her mote comfortable to indulge in the drug…but he can’t keep being the sole reason why she feel so hard into it.
Her family is spending so much time trying to make him the blame when they ALL share in the fact that they did not speak out publicly against it.
Now we are looking at Christina and watching the same thing happen to her. They want to blame Nick. But this girl grew up with drug addicts. Her coping mechanism to stay high.
As the former drug addicts in my family tell us, they have to find themselves tired of the situation and then they can receive help. To me, that is saying I choose to be this person…Whitney made a choice. They have to live with it. And let go
SPEAK ON IT!! I agree with every word you said. I just hope BK doesn’t follow the same path as her parents. She seems to be a pretty strong individual so hopefully she can fight the addiction.
Soooo noone’s going to mention the FACT that Michael Houston is a COWARD who allowed another man to take years of blame for HIS actions? Well, I guess I said it. I cannot stand people who do these types of things. Sure Bobby B. was no angel but damn!
I agree with you that Michael was a coward for not owning up and letting BB take total blame for Whit’s addiction. BUT MICHAEL DIDN’T DRAW THEM EYES ON THEM WALLS!! How can you get right when them eyes lookin’ back at you through yo’ peep hole?!! BOBBYYYYYYYY!! wHAT WERE YOU THINKIN’ SON??
You could see on Being Bobby Brown that they were gone both of them I believe that’s when she took stock of it and bounced. He did manage to stay sober until the deaths of the 3 people that were closest to him. Mom and Dad in 2011 and Nippy in 2012. Whitney sang at one and came to the other. Despite their history and breakup she would’ve been mortified that those children didn’t attend her home going and that he was treated so shabbily.
Yep! Regardless of whether or not Cissy approved, the fact still remains that Whitney LOVED Bobby and ALL of his kids. She treated them like they were her own. The treatment that Bobby and his kids received during at the funeral was just disgusting. And what’s even worse is knowing that the true culprit responsible for her addiction was probably sitting on the front row right next to their mama!
Ok so…can we now leave Bobby the hell alone behind this Whitney crap?
@ COCO…you are so right…a phucking COWARD! The way they treated Bobby at the funeral was disgraceful and a mess like this family!
Did anyone notice that even now Michael doesn’t want to take full on responsibility? Before he could even fully make his admission, he was already saying, "but it was the ’80s….". He is still making excuses and justifications for what happened.
LOL cant lie the 80s had that good blow..before crack. Cocaine was jesus.
Can we NOW leave B. Brown alone?!!! It’s unfortunate, but it appears that she was on that shit years beforeshe met dude. And it’s a shame that it’s always the people closest to us that fuck us up. Way to go Gary (insert movie slow claps).
Exactly! She was damn near 30 years old when she.started dating bobby. I don’t care what nobody says….you just don’t jump into doing crack or cocaine that late stage in life. I just won’t believe it.

Why does Cissy have so much hate in her heart for Bobby? The truth has finally come out after decades of blaming him for getting her hooked on drugs. Whitney was hooked on drugs long before she met Bobby. Randal Cunningham ended their relationship because of her drug use. I don’t buy Cissy’s story about the incident on the yacht as her reason for not liking Bobby. In her mind she felt Bobby was beneath them. Not a Christian thing to say, so she uses excuses to justify her hate for him. The whole family is guilty for her drug use. Her brother, her SIL, her mother. They all do. We all have things we have to answer to and they will answer for all they did, didn’t do, lies, blaming of others and cover ups for the all mighty dollar. They didn’t care what Whitney did as long as the money was coming in.
She has rightful disdain for him because he abused Whitney (by Whit’s own admission in interview) verbally and physically. He spent most of their marriage behind bars when he wasn’t. He hung his kidz and child support around Whit’s neck and tarnished her image when she was most vulnerable by persuading her to appear in "Being Bobby Brown".
I don’t care about Whitney saying Bobby was jealous or abusive. He denied it so it’s her word against his. To me Whitney has never been honest. She sat on Oprah pretending like she was clean and she and her mother were so close when in reality Whitney treated Cissy like shit.
And another thing!!!!! Cissy wants to blame Bobby, cut him down and make him out to be the bad guy. Bobby could have outed them a long time ago and made them look bad in the eyes of everyone of them. He knew the truth. And even after they mistreated him and his children t Whitney’s going home celebration, he still said nothing. Bobby is a good man, because a shady mf would have out ll their business out there.
Yeah he could have BUT would have ANYONE believed him. We’re talking about Whitney and at that time she was at the height of her career.
I hate to say it be if anything Whitney kept Bobby for getting clean. You always heard about him going into rehab but not her.
Now we are looking at Christina and watching the same thing happen to her. They want to blame Nick.
I believe her brother might have spoke within the family….Nope take that back I’m sure the family knew before Bobby that Whitney and her brother were getting high. Bobby was the fall guy! Shame on them!!!!! Leave that man alone.
Sooooooo no one is going to mention that young Cissy looks like current day Nene Leakes?
The drug abuse is not the reason Cissy doesn’t like Bobby. the way he treated Whitney is the reason why she doesn’t like him. If you had a daughter who had to go through what Whitney told Oprah, and what Whitney possibly told her mother or her brother Michael, or what they witnessed on their own, or what Whitney’s friend told them, than understand what Cissy is coming from. Whitney didn’t give us everything about what happened. But let’s keep it real, Cissy said she didn’t like him, didn’t approve of the relationship. so there it is. you have to remember, whitney came from a different world than Bobby. She was from an upper class, muscial royality, world traveled. she was groomed to marry a different type of man. Cissy made it perfectly clear whitney rebelled by marrying him. That’s like when Janet married Bobby Debarge her family hated him.
Ok and MOST Celebrity marriages fail! That’s the problem they get married for the WRONG reason because of what PEOPLE think or WHOM people feel is RIGHT for that person. I believe Whitney and Bobby truly loved one another.
Cissy didn’t like Bobby from the very beginning. In her mind, he and his family were beneath the Houston family. Lets just say they reason she hates him is because of how he treated her, why mistreat/ignore his other children at Whitney’s going home celebration? They had nothing to do with what went on between those two. Who really knows what went on behind closed doors? The only people who REALLY truly know are Whitney and Bobby. I wonder if this confession by her uncle will change how BK feels about her father?
NO BECAUSE BOBBY BROWN STILL TREATED WHITNEY HOUSTON LIKE SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bobbi Kristina was Whitney’s daugther , she knows more than anyone in the public knows, or even what Cissy may know. People want to act like oh, Bobby didn’t introduce her to drugs, or made her do drugs, like somehow that suddenly takes away from what Bobbi Kris witness the reality of her mom’s life. Ok, so the affairs that whitney talked about didn’t happened because Bobby didn’t introduce Whitney to drugs. When Whitney talked about Bobby spitting on her ,that didn’t happened because he didn’t introduce her to drugs. The verbal and mental abuse didn’t happened because he didn’t introduce her to drugs? Speaking from my experience with my parents, Bobbi Kristina is hurt because of what she witnessed, that is what she’s upset about. People blamed Bobby for the drugs, but they won’t stop blaming him for what Whitney admitted in the interview, Hollywood won’t suddenly think of Bobby as a good guy, cuz guess what, they witnessed/heard, things happened between Bobby and Whitneygoes beyond the drugs.And beyond what the public is privy to. Michael owes Bobby an apology for the blame placed on him, but since Whitney told that she was abused mentall,emotionally, verbally, and physically by Bobby that ain’t going to happened. Bobby forgave himself, Bobbi Kristina said she has no problem with her father, than so what about anybody else. But, people need to stop saying it’s vindication for Bobby, when drugs was not the reason Bobby and Whitney had a terrible marriage.
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you.. well said.. People act like it’s all good with Bobby now.. no… He still was dirty and low down!
Yeah Bobby could have told the "secret" BUT would have ANYONE believed him. We’re talking about Whitney and at that time she was at the height of her career.
I hate to say it be if anything Whitney kept Bobby for getting clean. You always heard about him going into rehab but not her.
Now we are looking at Christina and watching the same thing happen to her. They want to blame Nick.
I believe her brother might have spoke within the family….Nope take that back I’m sure the family knew before Bobby that Whitney and her brother were getting high. Bobby was the fall guy! Shame on them!!!!! Leave that man alone.
Would ANYONE judging like to see Bobby Brown marry into their family ??????
HELL NO I WOULD NOT WANT FOR MY DAUGHTER TO MARRY BOBBY UGLY ASS BROWN!!!!! I LOVE MY DAUGHTER, BOBBY BROWN WILL KILL MY DAUGHTER, JUST LIKE HE KILLED WHITNEY HOUSTON!!!!!!!!!!!
DAMN!! You sound just like ME!! It’s like I’m talking to MYSELF!! I can’t BELIEVE another spirit shares my veiws!!! TOTALLY!!
I want to see Cissy , Dionne on a talk show together, these two are the realist people in Hollywood. I loved it when Cissy had Oprah speechless answering certain answers. She was point blank, moving on. After the interview Cissy should have taken off her mic and dropped it on the floor. I love Cissy interviews. that elder has spunk. And Dionne is straight to the point. They keep it all the way real. in the words of Nene , "I live". lol
Oprah did a fabulous job on this interview. An Cissy was open about her feelings. I was impressed. It was sad to see the old videos of Whitney when she still had the voice.
That Arista image machine was fierce. Whitney said herself she started in the hood that don’t mean she lived there but that’s where it started. My heart goes out to Cissy but pointing the fingers won’t bring her back and ultimately the choices we make are our own. It’s still hard to believe that she’s gone but I choose to remember the good deeds and musical legacy.
RIH to Ms. Whitney but people need to start taking responsibility for their own actions, whether her brother or Bobby Brown introduced her to some weed and cocaine the shit at the end of the day was still her choice. And lets be real sheltered kids are never really able to express themselves and usually make mistakes at a faster rate than other kids on the other side of the spectrum. Shelter your kids to a certain level but going overboard will put them in harms way when it comes to them learning to make wise decisions
At this particular point, the hate against Bobby runs deeps. The world has blamed him for years, his daughter blames him for it, etc. Someone could come out and say they killed her, people will still blame him. Even after the brother admitted he was the one, her mother still took the opportunity to throw shade at Bobby when in reality she introduced him to the hard stuff. He was a pill popper and weed head back in the day. I hope people can start to forgive him now. Not saying he was clean because he was a enabler but it was never all his fault.
Bobby is blamed because as a man, father and husband, he did absolutely NOTHING to save his family from that horror house they all lived in. And now his daughter has become the recipient of his mistakes. She blames him too and who would know better than her? People sit around their kidz doing all manner of crazy shit thinking "Oh,they’re just kidz, they aint’ gon’ remember this sh*t".The minute a teenager rebels they bring up sh*t you did when they were three years old. That’s why Bobby’s more afraid if anything of Chrissy.
yeah bobby brown is not off the hook, bobby used her money to take care of his mother father sister brother nieces and nephews and never did anything to get off his drug addicted ass and do better for him and his family. now his ugly ass touring with the band again because guess what he has to work since whit divorced his sorry ass. he may not have introduced whit to drugs but he sure as hell didn’t do anything to stop her either! they were both wrong and two wrongs dont make a right! for him to do the drugs with her and to have cheated on her and using her money to do as he pleased…i mean did you see being bobby brown? his actions in jamaica were unacceptable for a married man! whit would have been better off marrying a white man or someone of better calibur than bobby brown and she would have turned out a helluva lot better! bobby had what 4 kids already before the marriage and whit’s money took care of them kids! again i blame cissy for the poor choices whit made in men! whit wanted to get out of her mothers shadows and was the byproduct of a controlling and jealous mommie dearest!
WOW! Why you fooled me like that? Everything was going so well…til’ ‘I blame Cissy’. "Medic! Bring me my damn Pills!"
so sad how drugs took her life point blank – her mother comes across as a snob to me- lets not forget whitney was older over Bobby she had been around the block a few times and not a young girl when she marry bobby she had her drugs and love it – she is the picture of life what drugs will do for you – take your life
yeah ms cissy is a huge snob and thats why her husband divorced her, she to me was jealous of whit and felt like she should have been in the lime light just like whit, she was never really happy for whit if you ask me, she seem very controlling and jealous that her career didn’t take off like whit’s and it sound like she blame whit that whit didn’t take her along for the ride but hell whit had her own career to make sure went to the next level. if you notice whit knew her mother was controlling and jealous , they didn’t have the relationship they portray to the public cuz ms cissy the type of woman that holds grudges and is scorned and act the victim! to me whit dad was closer to whit, he left EVERYTHING to whit and not even his sons what that tell you? whit brothers look like shit! something happ in that household and they will take it to the grave, just like they are going to do for whit death, take it to the grave whatever the real story is! ROBIN where are you, it’s time for you to talk, yeah….ms cissy need to have several seats!
Question??: what happen to Whitney friend Robin? if she comes out with a book I bet it would be hot book to get ( just saying ) she knew the real Whitney behind close doors
ms cissy looks real suspect and controlling..i blame cissy for the way her children turned out, i mean all 3 of her kids are drug addicts and alcoholics that rode whits coattails for her money and as the breadwinner. then now she is the one making money off of her daughter, where was she at when whit needed her? where was the book deals and the singing invitations then? she is using her daughter to resurrect her ownself! she was in the damn woods before whit died and now she is everywhere, something aint right with this, she seemed jealous of her daughter and i dont like it one bit! she didn’t know if whit loved her? are you freaking kidding me? who doesn’t know or have a convo with their child if you feel unloved by them? cissy have several seats..YOU WERE THE PROBLEM, YOU WERE NEVER A MOTHER TO THOSE CHILDREN! like michael jackson something went horribly wrong in that household!
I hear you Mary I just re watch the interview – MaMa comes across as mad, pain, lets get this interview over with so she can this book sold and hurry up!! she looks like get the book and read it – dont question me about the book- shes mad – I can understand that death of a family member – she is a bit to old to go singing and her voice sounds shot to me – seem hard to smile – Oprah seem to be taken by surprise by her – I bet she goes around cussing someone out!!! and in her own way shes sending out a message to her granddaugther about being loved – blessing goes out to her and her family to get through the pain
PLEASE don’t encourage Mary! MARY JUST STOP IT!And here you are talking about Oprah seemed..(let me scroll up and take a look)..okay, so Oprah may have looked a bit surprised but for all we know "O" may have had to ‘go’. Hey..that’s how I do. I DO agree that Cissy needs to drop the mic. Love you Cissy!!
The comments on this post are quite interesting. It just amazes me that the majority of you are suddenly Team Bobby now that Cissy dun spilled the beans. I will never speak ill of the dead but facts are facts-Whitney was older and more experienced in this industry than Bobby, please stop acting like Bobby ran the show. She sat right on Oprah’s couch and told how she pursued him-she knew exactly what she was doing. And the claims that he used her money-were y’all asleep in the 80s and 90s?Bobby Brown was the biggest thing next to MJ back then, doubt it very seriously that he was broke. Not to say his money may have stayed long forever, but this dude sold out arenas and has Grammys. I fault Cissy for this-something is to be said at the fact that ALL your children have had drug problems. She can sit on as many couches as she wants to, and act like she’s setting the record str8 hundred times over-She still sounds like a mother who was delusional when it came to her child’s issues and needed a scrapegoat=Bobby. Instead of doing interviews, she should be sumwhere trying to fix the relationship between her and Bobbi Kris.
amen southenbird – CAN I GET AMEN! SAY IT LOUD
Preach shoo I even had several posters hanging in my room. They seemed to love each other and after 1999 you just couldn’t help but notice the decline. It’s unfortunate both were at the top of their game. Drugs do that.
@Mary, My words exactly you hit it dead on ! Cissy is a bitter controlling lady . That’s why she is writing that book she hurting for more money. Whitney wasn’t breaking her off like she wanted her to.No she didn’t approve of them being married because that cut off her of getting funds on the daily. She’s greedy and was jealous of her daughters success and wanted more control of Whitney’s money. If you think back she tried to get control a few years back and lost. SHE CLAIMS TO BE A CHRISTIAN BUT STILL HOLDS ANGER TOWARDS BOBBY BROWN ! LET IT GO GREEDY CISSY. I hope u get enough to make it for a few more years because it seems like u fishing for anyone who wants a story. Go ahead and tell everybody how Whitney really handled you. Bobbi Kris acts that way because that’s what she seen and that’s all she knows, That girl knows her mom loved her mother Cissy but can’t fooled with her for real and she probaly told Bobbi keep your distance. Whitney left her nothing (cisssy) that’s why she was trying to fight that child over her mother’s money. SHAME ON YOU GREEDY CISSY !
She should be mad with her junkie son he killed his sister when he introduce her to that monster of a drug that wasn’t so wack ! It’s a sad story that has come to a end. She’ll never be able to do anything with Bobbi Kris love from a distance but they my opinion will never have a relationship.
