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.
Whitney Houston
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.
Whitney Houston, who died of cocaine use, heart disease and drowning, was a walking pharmacy. She had several drugs in her system when she died - namely cocaine and marijuana, which is sometimes mixed with toxic additives, in addition to pharmaceuticals Xanax, Flexeril and Benadryl, which all have a heavy sedative effect. In short, she was zonked. Flexeril is a muscle relaxer (which can relax the heart as well) and anti-anxiety drug Xanax, in tandem with the cocaine, gave her heart a beating it could not stand up to.
But this is the Hollywood lifestyle, where celebrities and executives take drugs to forget their problems and get high, which is their definition of partying. What some don't get is that in Hollywood drugs are seen as a good thing, something positive, when in actuality they are not. In Hollywood drugs are apart of the party...even if it kills you. Hollywood needs to change its attitude towards drugs and alcohol.
The Los Angeles coroner's office has ruled today, the late, legendary singer, Whitney Houston, died at age 48 last month of cocaine use, heart disease and drowning. She was found dead in her bathtub at the Beverly Hilton in Los Angeles on the eve of the Grammy Awards.
Marijuana, Xanax and Flexiril were also found in her system at the time of death. This confirms Houston did not kick her drug habit of smoking crack cocaine with marijuana rolled up in a joint. Houston referred to it as "rock cocaine" with "marijuana."
This is such a waste of life and a tremendous talent. The irony is many more celebrities in Hollywood will die early deaths, decades earlier than they should have, due to regrettable choices they are making. So many of them have already died early over the past few years, due to the destructive decisions they have made.
How many more people in Hollywood will have to die before tinseltown gets the message to stop this destructive, ungodly behavior. What good is fame and money to people that have died decades early. It's not worth it.
Whitney Houston has been deceased a little over a month and the vultures are out in full force once again. Reports surfaced today in Star magazine that Houston's last boyfriend, rapper/singer and reality star, Ray J has been shopping a sex tape and explicit photos of the late star for cash, much like he did to former girlfriend, Kim Kardashian.

In the case of Kardashian, Ray J was paid $1,000,000 for the sex tape. I would hope Ray J would not do such a thing to another woman, especially Houston, as she has died, but his conduct in the past has left much to be desired, because he has consistently put himself before the dignity and privacy of people that have been in his life.
Will She Get A Prenup Like Her Mom Did With Her Dad Bobby Brown

Singer Whitney Houston's last will and testament, did not make provisions for her informally adopted son Nick Gordon, whom she raised for the past 10-years with her daughter Bobbi Kristina Brown. It was revealed last week, Brown is now engagement to Gordon and is wearing her mother's ring as an engagement ring.
Whitney Houston
Sorry to bring this up again, but since it is common knowledge that Brown has an addiction to drugs and alcohol, what if she does not successfully complete rehab and accidentally overdoses after she gets married. The entire Houston estate could be Gordon's free and clear.
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.
The controversy surrounding Bobbi Kristina Brown, the daughter of the late Whitney Houston, dating her informally adopted "brother" Nick Gordon, has picked up steam in the past few hours. It is being stated, Brown is now engaged to Gordon, making her grandmother, Cissy Houston, even more furious. She has been trying to get Gordon evicted from Houston's $1,000,000 Atlanta, Georgia townhouse. The poor woman is grieving over her deceased daughter and is now dealing with this story.

TMZ, being the nosy website it is, obtained footage of Brown and Gordon going for lunch, holding hands and intimately kissing, which further confirms the story. Some members of the public are uneasy with the relationship and are troubled to find out the two are now engaged.

This is a delicate subject, due to the psychological implications of being raised as brother and sister over the past decade and now having sex with each other. I do not wish to hurt Bobbi Kristina's feelings, but the situation is not ideal - neither is premarital sex. She is vulnerable right now, due to the death of her mother and needs to be careful of the choices she is making.
For days stories have surfaced regarding Bobbi Kristina Brown, the only child of the late singer, Whitney Houston, dating Nick Gordon, the young man her mother informally adopted 10-years-ago, taking him into the family's home in Atlanta, Georgia. The two have been seen canoodling in public.

Two weeks prior to these stories, it was reported that Whitney Houston's mother, gospel singer, Cissy Houston, wanted Gordon out of her daughter's townhouse in Atlanta, Georgia, that she shared with Bobbi Kristina. Gordon has been defending himself on Twitter, regarding the relationship.
Bobbi Kristina has remained silent, but opted to retweet (quote) other people's blurbs of encouragement, regarding her relationship with a man she publicly called "family" and "brother" for years. Psychologically, this could create problems for Brown, because for an entire decade, she was raised with Gordon as a member of the family. To go from calling someone brother to lover will bring problems in itself.
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.

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.
