What’s the verdict, kids? Does Whitney still have it?
This whole thing kind of falls flat for me, honestly. The song itself is boring, and Akon’s totally out-singing her. Whitney just doesn’t have the pipes like she used to. And I guess that can be blamed on another kind of pipes. Sadness.
(BTW, the video is just a montage, it’s not for this specific song.)
Bobby Brown is one big huge giant turd.
The huge loser has written a tell-all about his relationship with Whitney Houston. In it, he basically blames Whitney for his drug problem.
“I never used cocaine until after I met Whitney. Before then, I had experimented with other drugs, but marijuana was my drug of choice,” he says. “At one point in my life, I used drugs uncontrollably. I was using everything I could get my hands on, from cocaine to heroin, weed and cooked cocaine.”
Heh. “Cooked cocaine.” Uh, dude, in most circles we call that “crack.” I have known many drug addicts and recovering drug addicts in my life, and I have never in my life heard any of them say that they smoked “cooked cocaine.” That’s fucking hilarious.
Brown claims his marriage “was doomed from the very beginning. Within the first year we separated, with several more to follow. I think we got married for all the wrong reasons. Now, I realize Whitney had a different agenda than I did when we got married . . . I believe her agenda was to clean up her image, while mine was to be loved and have children.”
And in response to allegations that he cheated on Whitney with Karrine “Superhead” Steffans: “Yes, I’ve slept with her. Yes, I’ve spent several nights at her house. But she was only good for what her nickname stood for.”
Oh my God!
What a fucking asshole. Like, dude, okay, you’re writing a book to talk shit about the ex-wife you hate. But do you really have to call some random chick you repeatedly spent the night with a valueless piece of trash? Soooo classy, buddy.
Whitney’s rep released the following statement in response:
“Miss Houston is sad that Bobby feels he need to say such things but she choses to take the high road and will not speak badly about the father of her child even if it’s to set the record straight.”
Geez, Bobby, I hope you make a shitload of money on this book. Because it cost you what little dignity you had left.
No, that’s overly mean spirited even for a child of spite. But some of Houston’s stuff is going up for sale and you can be the proud owner if you hustle down to New Jersey post haste.
You can see the full list of stuff for sale here but the highlights include:
Dolce & Gabban Bustiers
Atelier Versace Beaded Cat Suit
Some of Bobby’s Awards
Northfield 36″ Vertical Band Saw
No word as to whether the band saw was used by Whitney herself and the items are only going up for auction because no one paid the storage bill. The lesson here: Pay all bills, and then only afterwards do enough drugs to kill a horse.

Sharon Stone and Christian Slater are dating. This is a recipe for … well … lots of really good cocaine. [CelebSlam]
Tara Reid can still get modeling jobs. [Rappy's]
Josh and Scarlett have come to terms with the fact that they are the sexiest people under 30 on the face of this planet, and they simply have no choice but to date each other. [The Blemish]
Joan Rivers, now officially senile, thinks this country considers Jessica Simpson an intellectual. [Agent Bedhead]
Yes, of course Halle Berry’s releasing an album. What did you expect her to do at this stage of her career? Act? [Pop on the Pop]
Evangeline Lilly’s Hawaii home burns down. This is where I write a joke that demonstrates some background knowledge of Evangeline Lilly or that show she’s on. I have no such knowledge. [Bricks and Stones]
Check out the first track from Whitney Houston’s comeback album. [Bossip]
Whitney Houston, Britney Spears, and now…Tara Reid.
Remember a year ago when Tara Reid was showing up to events looking like this.
Now she looks like this.
I’m glad finally someone taught her how to brush/wash her hair and do her makeup. She used to be really smokin and I’m glad she finally embraced the fact that she is 30 and an adult. I’m guessing there was a team of people responsible for this…if so, they should win an award.
Whitney Houston makes her first public appearance, newly sober and split from Bobby Brown, looking great. Let the comeback begin! [Celebrity Smack]
Michael Jackson moonwalks back onto our national radar, announcing plans to marry his children’s nanny and make a rare public appearance at the World Music Awards in London. Everybody stay very quiet. Maybe he’ll just go away. [Hollyscoop and Hollywood Backwash]
X17 has footage of Lindsay Lohan less than an hour before she was spotted screaming and crying in her vehicle after all-night partying. She leaves Paris Hilton’s house with a pizza box covering her face, walks into her car (like, literally — she runs right into it, with the pizza box obstructing her vision), then drives off. When the paparazzi are asking if you’re okay to drive, maybe you should ask yourself the same question, Linds. [X17]
Live television is so much fun! Isn’t that right, SNL? [Defamer]
It’s cute when photogs decide they’re going to stop bloggers from using their photos. [HGW]
