Posted in: , ,

21 year old Bobbi Kristina, the only daughter of singer Whitney Houston and rapper Bobby Brown has been battling for her life in hospital since she was found face down in a filled bathtub over three weeks ago. Unfortunately, those around her have been caught up in legal squabbles since then. Nick Gordon, was thought to be her husband until Bobby Brown said through his lawyers that the two were never legally married has not been given permission to visit her bedside.

Though they often called each other ‘husband’ and ‘wife’, Bobby Brown stands by his decision to ban the 22 year old from his daughter's bedside. He insists that Gordon has refused to answer to the cop's investigation and knows more about Bobbi's condition than he's letting on.

Bobby Brown Releases Statement On Bobbi Kristina Being Taken Off Life Support Tomorrow

Posted in: , ,

There was an earlier report today which I posted about the family of Bobbi Kristina Brown agreeing to remove her from life support tomorrow to coincide with the third anniversary of her mother's death. However,  the Brown family has now released an official statement on the comatose 21-year-old, rejecting the initial reports that she will be let go tomorrow, Feb. 11, being the third anniversary of Whitney Houston's death.

Bobbi Kristina is the only daughter of Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown and has been hospitalized since last week Saturday when she was found unresponsive and face down in a filled bathtub in her home. This latest statement doesn't reveal anything specific about Bobbi's current condition, whether she's getting better or not. But they insist all articles based on unnamed "sources" is false reporting. Read the full statement below...

Bobbi Kristina's Life Support To be Removed Same Day as Whitney Houston's Memoriam

Posted in: , ,

Bobbi Kristina Brown is still unconscious in hospital and being kept alive with life support machines. Though doctors have reportedly told her father there's nothing more they can do, and that it was time to take her off, the family is praying and keeping hope alive.

New reports are now saying that they have agreed to take her off life support, but want to wait until Wednesday so she can die on the same date as her mother, Whitney Houston. The move is a symbolic way to keep the mother and daughter together for eternity, according to a
Brown family source.

"Privacy is requested in this matter. Please allow for my family to deal with this matter and give my daughter the love and support she needs at this time."

Bobbi Kristina Alive But Allegedly In Medically Induced Coma - Let's Pray For Her

Posted in: , , ,

Earlier today, it was reported that Atlanta police had responded to a 911 call for Bobbi Kristina Brown, daughter of late singer, Whitney Houston. She was found unresponsive in a tub in her home in a Roswell at about 10:30 a.m. Police say her husband and a friend found her and started CPR before calling 911.

So far, investigators say they have not yet found anything at the home indicating whether drugs or alcohol played a factor. They do not know if her husband Gordon or anyone else was home at the time Brown became unresponsive.

Bobbi Kristina Brown, the only daughter of late Whitney Houston with ex Bobby Brown, was reportedly found unresponsive today in a home in Roswell, Georgia. Police say she was found in a tub full of water uncounscious and was taken to hospital. You can read the police press release below.

This is so sad and shocking because this was exactly how her legendary singer mom died! Whitney Houston was found unresponsive in a bathtub following a drug overdose back in February 2012. It is less than two weeks to the anniversary of her mother's death and maybe that's partly the cause of what happened to Bobbi Kristina. Praying for her...

Debra Cox Will Be Singing All Of Whitney Houston's Classics in Upcoming Lifetime Biopic

Posted in: , ,

Yaya DaCosta may be playing Whitney Houston for the upcoming Lifetime biopic based on the late singer's life, but it’s been announced that Deborah Cox will play Whitney’s voice!

The Houston Estate has done everything in their power to stop Lifetime from making this film, including denying production the rights to Whitney’s music — so the movie producers have commissioned Deborah Cox to sing all of Whitney’s classics that will be featured in the movie.

Deborah might just have the most important performance of the entire movie. I wonder if this means that Yaya Dacosta is not such a great singer?

Meanwhile, to play Bobby Brown in the movie is Arlen Escarpeta, a young relatively unknown actor. See him with Yaya Dacosta below...

First Look at Yaya DaCosta as Whitney Houston for Lifetime Biopic

Posted in: , , ,

As a big fan of Whitney Houston, I confess that I'm truly excited for the Whitney Houston biopic! And with this first look at model and actress Yaya DaCosta as the late musician, I must say that I am very impressed.

Yaya has the look down pat but the question some are asking is whether she will be able to portray the mannerisms of the legendary Whitney? We all have to wait and see...

BTW, did Whitney's daughter Bobbi Kristina really think she could've got the role? She should be happy at the nod to her mom instead of going off on Angela Basset [see here]. Oh well, you can never please some people.

Whitney Houston Gets Grammy Special for Anniversary

Posted in: , ,

Grammy organizers plan to mark the first anniversary of the sudden death of Whitney Houston with a behind-the-scenes TV show on how they scrambled to honor the singer just 24 hours after she died.

The Recording Academy said on Thursday that the hour-long special entitled "The Grammys Will Go On: A Death in the Family" will air on February 9, the day before the 2013 Grammy Awards ceremony in Los Angeles.

Houston, who sold hundreds of millions of records and scored the mega hits "I Will Always Love You" and "I Wanna Dance with Somebody," drowned in a bathtub at a Beverly Hills hotel room on February 11 2012 - the eve of last year's Grammy Awards show.
