19-year-old Bobbi Kristina Brown, was spotted in public with boyfriend brother, Nick Gordon, looking very sad and upset this past Thursday, when it was announced her mom, Whitney Houston, died of a cocaine overdose and cardiac episode last month. 48-year-old Houston was found submerged in the bathtub of her Beverly Hilton hotel suite.
Once again, Bobbi Kristina and her dad, Houston's ex-husband, Bobby Brown, who are both addicted to drugs and struggle with alcoholism, need to embrace sobriety and stick with it, as their very lives depend on it. You're not too young to die of an overdose.

The kind of drug use that took place in the Houston home was very dangerous, as it involved the powerful narcotic crack cocaine that is highly addictive. Both Browns need to view sobriety as a life or death situation and keep in mind that their next hit, could be their very last. It's not worth dying over, as they have much to live for.
Today, Radar Online reported, singer Bobby Brown, wants his daughter, Bobby Kristina Brown, to star in a biopic of his life titled "The Bad Boy of R&B: The Bobby Brown Story." Brown originally had no takers for the film treatment on his life story, which was co-written by Michael Pinckney, but now that Bobbi Kristina's mother Whitney Houston has passed, he believes there will be renewed interest.

If you remember correctly, two weeks ago, the Judiciary Report stated Bobbi Kristina should star in the planned biopic of her life, rather than Rihanna or Jordan Sparks, whose names were being floated (Hollywood Questions Who Will Play Whitney Houston In Biopic).

However, as Bobby and Bobbi's relationship is currently strained, this may not be something she is interested in. She looks like her dad, but takes after her mom in mannerisms and her view on life. Lastly, due to the fact Brown walked out on his ex-wife's funeral last month, with people continually blaming him for her downward spiral when she was alive, a film of his life will not be extremely popular.

The Houston biopic will have an audience and if done correctly, could be a cultural hit, as were the films on musical stars such as Tina Turner and the Jackson family.

As mentioned on the site yesterday, Bobbi Kristina Brown, the 19-year-old daughter of the late singer, Whitney Houston and R&B crooner, Bobby Brown, is engaged to her informally adopted brother, Nick Gordon, 22. The two lived together for 10-years as kids, while Houston was alive, who referred to him as family.
Bobby Kristina, who sings, dances and looks like her estranged dad, is attempting to launch a music career, stating she is going to carry on her mother's legacy. This is not the best way to start her career, as such a scandal has damaged other celebrities. For instance, the sister duo that leads up the band Heart, never shook of claims the sisters were found in bed together having sex. They denied the story, but some still believe it.

While Brown and Gordon are not related by blood, they were still raised as brother and sister, leading her grandmother to proclaim their sexual relationship "incestuous" according to TMZ. It is also being reported Brown seeks to run off to Vegas for a quick wedding, which is being opposed by her family, as they believe Gordon is after her inheritance. What the Judiciary Report wants to know is why Bobby Brown has remained silent in something so serious.

Side Bar: having been raised in the Houston household, after his dad went to prison when he was age 9, does Gordon have a drug and alcohol problem, as does Bobby Brown, Bobbi Kristina Brown and previously, Whitney Houston.
It's no secret that Oprah Winfrey's OWN Network has been struggling with poor ratings. The interview Winfrey landed with the family of the late singer Whitney Houston, proved to be a ratings coup for her, giving OWN its best numbers to date. The interview was watched by an estimated 3,500,000 viewers, which are decent figures for cable television. However, it may not be enough to save the network.
Oprah Winfrey's interview with the late Whitney Houston's family aired yesterday and while it was touching and confirmed a few details regarding the singer's death, it was not particularly revealing. Items that were confirmed include the Judiciary Report's contentions on February 13, 2012, February 16, 2012 and March 10, 2012 that Houston, 48 and Ray J, 31 were romantically involved and that it was a bad idea (even though he now claims they were just friends).
Houston's sister-in-law and manager, Pat Houston, stated to Winfrey, she saw the singer dangerously "chasing a dream" of a "young man" that likes to be "out and about" and an "older woman" that likes to "stay home." This was indeed a reference to Ray J and Houston's tumultuous relationship and 17-year age difference.
Oprah Winfrey and Bobbi Kristina Brown
I think Houston took a liking to Ray J because he is a bad boy and looks like her ex-husband Bobby Brown (they are both male singers with goatees, similar complexions and physical builds). I don't particularly think she liked being a "cougar" which is slang for an older woman dating a younger man, but she transferred her feelings for bad boy Brown to Ray J.
However, Ray J, like Brown, is promiscuous and broke her heart. But with Ray J, Houston had to deal with the age difference making her feel old and one of his irate girlfriends, Stacy Francis, 41, from Fox/Sony's "X-Factor" stalking her to the club and repeatedly confronting her in an unpleasant manner, two days before her death. Pat Houston spoke of Francis following them all over the club in a manner they deemed uncomfortable and confrontational (is everyone on or affiliated with Sony a stalker - do they give them stalking classes or something).
Bobby Brown
The incident regarding Ray J and Stacy Francis definitely depressed Houston and made her feel old, adding to her worries about her vocal woes and forthcoming album. You could see it on her face in pictures, as she exited the club that she was sad and upset.
It was just another reminder that Ray J, who she was enamored with, was not going to be faithful to her and had his iron in several fires. Unfaithful people like Ray J need to realize their promiscuity hurts others and sometimes in ways they could not imagine. If you are not serious about someone nor do you intend to be faithful, don't lead the person on.

The week Houston died, she was contemplating getting plastic surgery, but failed the physical, due to damage to her system from years of heavy smoking, drinking and drug use. She was a prime candidate for cardiac arrest on the operating table during plastic surgery.
However, she really didn't need plastic surgery, just some gentle detox to reduce toxins in her system (from smoking, drinking and drugs), skin rejuvenation and Pilates, to be back to her best, as she had aged very well. She had no wrinkles or crows feet and her face still looked tight.

But when you date a man nearly two decades your junior, it will convince you that you need plastic surgery, even when you do not. It will convince you that you need a face lift, lip injections, botox, breast implants, butt tightening and butt silicone injections.
Before long you'll look like Frankenstein. Being in Hollywood makes it worse, where even women in their twenties like Megan Fox and Heidi Montag are damaging their looks with excessive plastic surgery. Hollywood destroys people's self-image into a look that is not often better than what they had before.

Another interesting point of the interview was that Houston daughter, Bobbi Kristina Brown, showed is trying to persevere through grief. However, talking to a deceased loved one is not a great idea, as the Bible says people are not to communicate with the dead. Emotionally, it also delays achieving closure.
Bobbi Kristina Brown also confirmed items the Judiciary Report wrote about her intent to pursue a singing and acting career. She stated in the interview with Winfrey that she seeks to carry on her mother's legacy. Just so long as she does not put too much pressure on herself or tries to become her mother, which is what some in the industry expect of her. God made everyone unique. Be your own person, not who they will try to make you into - Whitney Houston part 2.
Troubling reports have surfaced indicating the late singer, Whitney Houston, who battled drug and alcohol addiction, shared the same drug dealer with her 18-year-old daughter, Bobbi Kristina Brown. Houston, who died last month at age 48, had an addiction to crack cocaine, which she smoked with marijuana, in addiction to alcohol issues.
Houston's daughter, Bobbi Kristina Brown, was photographed on different occasions smoking marijuana at age 15 and snorting cocaine off a plate at 17. The young Brown has also been pictured drinking very strong alcohol at age 17. The Judiciary Report hopes Bobbi Kristina will get on a path to sobriety and remain on it indefinitely. There are so many positive things she could do with her life and drugs and alcohol will hinder them.
Whitney Houston: Bobby's going to be singing "I Have Nothing"
The late singer Whitney Houston, who suddenly died last month, left nothing in her will for ex-husband, Bobby Brown. Her entire estate has been left to her 19-year-old daughter, Bobbi Kristina Brown. This is going to make Brown hotter than a jalapeño when he finds out, because he is having serious financial troubles and lost his lavish lifestyle in the divorce. So much so, when Houston divorced him, Brown was homeless and living in his car, until hooking up with music industry manager, Alicia Etheridge. The two are now engaged and have a cute son.

After losing his $20,000,000 fortune to excessive and unwise spending, such as a multi-million dollar recording studio in Atlanta that he had to give up at a loss and a record label ram packed with artists that failed to shift records, Brown lost the luxurious life he had become accustomed to and his prenuptial agreement with Houston ensured she would not be paying for it to continue after their marriage.
Talk show host Oprah Winfrey is preparing to air an interview with the family of the late Whitney Houston, who died last month in California, under tragic circumstances. Houston previously spoke with Winfrey about her drug problems in 2009. However, questions linger about the insobriety of Houston and her daughter Bobbi Kristina Brown, as both have been the subject of compromising pictures regarding drug paraphernalia.
Whitney Houston
Will Winfrey ask Bobbi Kristina Brown the difficult questions, considering she is a young woman of 18, who is grieving the death of her beloved mother. If she asks her anything too probing or embarrassing and the wrong way, it could backfire.

However, as they have consented to an interview, this would be a chance for them to clear the air. Let's be honest, there are things regarding the Houston/Brown family the public has questions about, especially after the flood of stories that accompanied the singer's mysterious death and drama filled funeral, thanks to ex-husband Bobby Brown storming out. Among them are:
Was Houston still on drugs, if not when did she quit?
Is Bobbi Kristina Brown still on drugs, if not when did she quit?
Is Bobby Brown still on drugs, if not when did she quit?
Does the family really believe Houston was murdered as recent reports allegedly from the coroner's office claim?
Is Cissy Houston still angry with Brown regarding his destructive habits that wreaked havoc on her award winning daughter and does she blame him for her child's death?
Was it true that Houston was buried with $500,000 in jewelry?
Can the estate afford to guard Houston's body indefinitely with the $500,000 in jewelry, rather than moving her to a private, sealed mausoleum, where all the crypts are better monitored?
Are Houston's former assistant's recent allegations true about her being lovelorn and depressed over their lesbian relationship, because the singer seemed oblivious to it?
Was Houston broke at the time of her death, after suffering tell-tale foreclosures in Georgia and New Jersey?
What exactly was said to Bobby Brown at Houston's funeral regarding moving from where he sat that caused him to storm out of the funeral and does he regret it?
Are Bobbi Kristina Brown and her dad on bad terms as publications indicate?
Is Bobbi Kristina Brown still going to pursue and acting and singing career?
Was Houston's adopted son really ordered to leave the family's home in Atlanta, Georgia?
Was rapper Ray-J with Houston the day she died and did his womanizing in the week leading up to her death send her into a greater depression?
R&B singer, Bobby Brown, is cashing in on the sudden death of his ex-wife, Whitney Houston, who generously supported him for much of their 14-year marriage, which ended in divorce 5-years ago. Houston stated Brown spat in her face and hit her more than once during their marriage, prompting her to flee her own home, with her daughter in tow.

Brown also repeatedly cheated on Houston with different women, which she went public with after their divorce. In all of that heartbreak, Houston never did a tell-all. Yet, this is Brown's second attempt at doing so, to score a payday, after blowing through his $20,000,000 fortune.
Bobby Brown
Under the circumstances, it is not appropriate that Brown write a tell-all. He deeply hurt her in life and is damaging her name in death as well. Houston stopped the first tell-all a few years ago, after several pages of it were leaked online by Brown. Now that she has died, who will address the next one.
Talk show host Oprah Winfrey has announced she is scheduled to interview Bobbi Kristina Brown, the only child of the late singer, Whitney Houston, who died last month in a bathtub at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Los Angeles, California. Since Houston's passing, there has been an enormous amount of speculation in the press and incendiary stories about the family, much of which had to have deeply hurt them. Some of the press stories are true, but some are outright lies.
Bobby Brown after Houston's funeral
Houston's ex-husband, Bobby Brown, created controversy of his own after her death, angrily walking out on the singer's funeral before it even started. 18-year-old Bobbi Kristina Brown was also hospitalized twice in hours proceeding her mother's tragic death.

With the family's long history of substance abuse and what has been written about it, there is much they most likely want to expound on in the interview. Considering how the younger Brown broke down in the hours after her mother's death, the interview is going to be quite sad.

Oprah Winfrey quit the major networks to focus on her own channel called OWN, but it has been struggling, due to very poor ratings. Many are stating Winfrey is hoping the aforementioned interview will be a ratings coup, but I doubt it will be enough to revive the network on a long term basis.
Radar Online is reporting singer Bobby Brown received nothing in his divorce settlement from the late chanteuse Whitney Houston. They had a prenuptial agreement that stipulated the couple keep their assets and earnings separate. Nonetheless, Houston generously provided from Brown during their tumultuous, drug and alcohol fueled marriage of 14-years.
Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown in the 1990s
As mentioned previously on the Judiciary Report, in the 1990s Houston paid to to save Brown's $2,000,000 Atlanta mansion from foreclosure. She also paid for his cars, clothes, travel and overall upkeep, when his money ran out, due to excessive spending and decreased income. Brown gave the public the impression he left the marriage broke, with only his clothes, as it was revealed he began crashing on the couch of tell-all groupie Karin Steffans.
Record companies seek to sign Whitney Houston's daughter to a lucrative record deal. They are hoping to recreate Houston's stellar success through her daughter, which is way too much pressure to put on the 18-year-old, who is still grieving her mother's sudden passing last month. Brown can sing and dance. Informal clips surfaced of her singing, as well as a few recordings she did with her mother.
Bobbi Kristina Brown
Under U.S. law, Brown is of age and can make her own decisions, but grandmother, gospel singer Cissy Houston, who obtained a record deal for her late daughter may object. She will be reluctant to allow Bobbi Kristina, the only part left of Whitney, her only daughter, to fall into the same industry trap that proved so detrimental and destructive to her child. Brown is also struggling with substance abuse issues and placing her in the heart of Hollywood would spell trouble.
