The Bobbi kristina story is often overlooked by the shadow of her famous mother , but she is the saddest thing about Whitney’s story. Poor baby never really stood a chance born into a life of addiction and turmoil.
People of the world are so unforgiving, this woman spent her entire adult life performing and giving herself to us. No one considered she had a personal life and her own struggles. It took a lot for Whitney Houston to come back and do interviews and a new album after all she endured and that in itself should have touched the heart of all Americans to recieve her again! She deserved grace and compassion!
@@JK-lp6uw that’s true, and I think anyone who hasn’t struggled with addiction or had a close friend/family member struggle, would easily say that. I can see both sides and while I do agree with you, I think it’s not that simple and she does deserve (as we all do when we screw up) a modicum of grace & compassion. 🙂
@@Starae336 You're suffering from Grammar Pedantry Syndrome. You should ask yourself why you feel the need to correct people's errors and to be so uncivil about it? Seek help before you develop full blown OCD if you don't already have the disorder. You're welcome.

@@laurenmay2098Yes maybe, but she never ever did autotune, all these artists nowadays are either autotune or rapping something that doesn't even make sense. Now that is very annoying to listen to. Artists in this era are singing provocatively and it seems it's only for attention.
I wish they mentioned how she was SA as a child and her brother admitted to introducing her to drugs. There’s so much more to her story than what is told
My abuser will not hold me hostage forever. I do go up and down, but I refuse it to let him control all aspects of my life. He might control a very little, because it will never goes away. It is always there, but not controlling me forever. She had money and she refused to get better through her rehabs. It was her personality, she was no angel either. After a while, you must to own up your life. Whitney lived her life the way she wanted and she paid the price.
Bobby is always the default blame for her addiction. However, in an interview, one of her brothers admitted to giving g her an 1/8 ball of cocaine for her 16th birthday. Her cocaine use also derailed her relationships with Eddie Murphy and a famous football player. She had her own demons that formed a perfect storm with Bobby’s. Despite her struggles, she was an icon and a talent that remains unmatched.
I saw the Oprah Winfrey interview with Whitney's mom and brother. It was absolutely disgusting and heartbreaking to hear Whitney's brother talk about Dionne Warwick's sister molesting Whitney and one of her brothers, only to hear the mom respond "well I don't know nothing about that". I'm like yeah ya do. Your son just said it. Therein lies the problem. When sexual abuse is denied and swept under the rug, it's as traumatizing as the sexual abuse itself.
@annaanderson655 And mine did it to me. I told her when I was 12, fifty years ago, that my "father" was molested me. Her response was "get out of here you liar". She still refuses to acknowledge what happened My brother died 7 weeks ago. On his death bed, he called our mom over and told her it happened and she failed to protect me. After my brother died, on the way home,my other brothers told her it happened and that I felt as though she failed to protect me. That was 7 weeks ago and she's not made an attempt to make it right. So pathetic
@@godlygirls62 I am so sorry. I cannot imagine how much that has affected you throughout your life. The fact that your mom doesn’t care or show any compassion for her children is disgusting. As a mom myself, it makes me SO angry for you. 💙
I know the feeling I was molested by my mom’s niece and my dad’s nephew at age 6 all the way up to 14 I’m 32 years old now and still to this day my dad doesn’t believe me and neither does my aunt they’re both in denial
@@godlygirls62I’m so very very very sorry that happened to you but I definitely believe you and you’re not alone and I pray that you heal ❤️🩹 and as for your mom GOD’S gonna deal with her for not believing you and failing to protect you.
Whitney was the Bomb of a Singer. Like she said , "They'll never be another me." She was right. I lo ved Whitney Houston. She had a hell of a life, in her short time here. I can't imagine, living a life, like that. Where your always, in the public, and never, having much time, to chill and relax, always, trying to please, other's. Even with the sacrifice, some people still didn't appreciate , who she was. A beautiful, down to earth, talented singer, who loved, her fans, and they loved, her til, she stumbled. That's the public, you can't truly , trust them. She was the one, putting, in all the work and hectic, schedules. Which I see, how humanly, possible, she did all that. Still when you stumble a bit folks, turn they're back on you and are two faced, anyway. They couldn't see as good as Whitney on her worse, day and talked abt, her like a dog, after she, encountered a lot of troubles. I never did drugs, and had no desire to. I probably wouldn't feel that way, if I was in her world. Like she said it's low down and dirty. No one knows, or cares, why people do drugs, they , just talk abt them and lack compassion. No one lived, her life but her. I beg you all to listen, to , DON"T CRY, for Me. It surely will make you smile, and cry, at the same time. She totally , destroyed, that song, in the BEST way, her ability to sing wth such, emotion and conviction, was phenomenal. I miss her. Her songs, are still being played, in restaurants, and stores. That song, she goes, up, and holds, those, notes, and brings, them back down. Then there's a point in the song, where, she looks, up to her , HEAVENLY , Father, like she's talking to him, in the feeling, of what she's singing. My favorite is the Red Dress, live video with the troops, and Kirk Whalum, playing, that sax. She knew she was the bomb, of a singer, nothing but teeth, of the troops, were showing. She could captivate an audience, like no other. Cissy was smiling turning, around, look like saying, you see that, that's my girl. Someone in the family, on Bobby's side, told what really, happened. Her death was not what they told us, and that was tragic, for poor , Whitney, everyone, left her alone, when she needed to be protected. n What really , happened was tragic. Not the drugs, did she die, from,. Mediia liars. RIP Queen, this world and Industry, is to much. Her God will take care of her. Thank, her for all the wonderful memories. People now are making money, off her fame, and shes been gone, since 2012.. It's all abt money, to many people are supposedly died of drugs, just because they did drugs, but that wasn't how they died, in some cases, and in hers. RIP Queen, Diva, of all Times. Thank you, Whitney.
The drugs stared long before Bobby. It was her brother Michael who started her at 14. When it comes to Bobby Brown, he was in a successful group with a crooked Manager Maurice Star who had them traveling the world but still living in the projects. He stole their earnings. When Bobby met Whitney he was 21 with 2 kids. She was 26. We have to stop blaming her life on Bobby.
Exactly! That s hard! My older brother and me use together c and more. And my partner and me as well. Now we rehabed but every day its a struggle. Whitney is my Angel❤
@@kentthomason6285 Please think. He as a man had a degree of responsibility for his home and all members within. He was negligent as a father and husband. Absolutely not responsible for her habits or death. He did not manage his home and family properly/ well.
Not a single person knows what Whitney Houston went through and felt but Whitney herself. Family, friends and associates cannot talk for her. Let alone anyone else who watches this or any other documentary. With all the documentaries done on Whitney, even her family, friends and associates have changed what they have said from one documentary to another.
I agree. I recommend the documentary 'Can I Be Me' by Nick Broomfield. It' was done with respect and compassion for Whitney and her struggles and the story is told by people who were close to her or knew her well.
Marrying Bobby Brown was the worst decision Whitney made. She could have had her choice of the cream of the crop. Bobby was insecure, immature and tried to dim her light. I am aware that the drugs started before Bobby, but dealing with a man who cheats and is verbally and physically abusive did not help her mental health. Bobby spent most of their marriage getting arrested and Whitney bailed him out time and time again. Bobby was talented but he peaked before the age of 25. He was his own worst enemy and Whitney's too.
Well Bobby did take responsibility saying they failed their daughter doing those hard core drugs and that man had been the through slot since he was a child he been losing people he loves. He wanted to stay with Whitney but he got clean and she didn’t want to and that’s why they divorced because after his stroke he wanted to stay sober from drugs but he admitted he still Had the Alcohol problem But had not did drugs in about 15 years.
@@chaquitaporter9045The reason why they divorced wasn’t because Whitney didn’t want to get clean. Bobby lied too much about his drug addiction. In her documentary they said that it’s true that Bobby wanted her to get clean, but when She finally decided to get clean, he wasn’t supportive and he started to mess with superhead Karrine Steffans again. Karrine even said that Bobby wasn’t that clean when him and Whitney separated because he was still using and after their divorce he was arrested for drug’s possession.
You know people's business too much. How do you know she could have had anyone she wanted? She chose who she chose. People like to blame Bobby for everything when Whitney clearly had a traumatic childhood just like he did. He's still alive, she's not unfortunately. He didn't get her drugged. They were both bad for each other but maybe she would have struggled with anyone or maybe she would be happier with Robyn? Who knows. People love to blame Robyn or Bobby but yet she still died and they were nowhere near. The sweet and sad thing is when people become successful they want to look after their loved ones. That she was looking after 50 people is so nice but that can make people broke. Sadly it looks like Whitney's mother didn't do her job as a mother as she wasn't around and Whitney and her siblings were mistreated and Whitney ended up not being there for her daughter either for a different reason. I don't think the reality show was that bad. Ratings come about when people are extra, it's often fake. And yes, maybe Bobby wanted to be the bigger one but that is almost all men. They all have egos. Let's say Whitney had married Kevin Costner as many men fantasise, he was a bit star and probably wouldn't have wanted her to be bigger than him either
He was clean when she died. Her substance abuse problems were her problem. Not his. That is how she chose to handle her problems. Like it or not, she loved Bobby Brown and he loved her. It’s not for us to judge,like, or understand why. Trying to live up to that “perfect image “ that was created about her was exhausting and enough to make her get high or go insane.
Exactly am getting sick of hearing that he destroyed her!!! When in Reality she was hiding her True-self behind a marriage, that even Bobby didn’t know about at 1st. I wish she would have came out and said she liked woman, maybe then she could Still be alive and happy. She might not of taken drugs at all if she was able to be her true self. The drugs most probably helped her cope with the secret that she hid from everyone.
@@ladyb9108 I don't believe Whitney was a lesbian. She had this relationship with Robin and yes they had something together. But here was Whitney 17 years old, and already using drugs. Why not experimented with sex? She and Robin had a great friendship but she loved men. And Bobby was a badboy but he had nothing to do with introducing her to drug. Bye the way, who lives from her money? Yes her family. Her brothers did'nt protect her. No they were introducing and doing drugs with her. So stop blaming Bobby for all the bad stuff that happend to her. He had a part true. But the biggest was her family. They failed her!.
What are you talking about? Girl that shit was an act. Whitney was from the hood and operated as such. You damn well an adult Black man’s voice isn’t that damn light and airy. Michael Jackson was acting based on a crafted image. I don’t know much about Diana but I definitely can’t compare her to two Black Americans.
Prince, Michael jackson, and Whitney Houston all had people surrounding them telling them what they wanted to hear all the time. They all took advantage of her and the saddest part is it was indeed her own brother who was the worst. Gary and Pat pushed Whitney's daughter to do this lame reality show right after Whitney's eyes.... Her daughter literally repeated over and over on that stupid reality show that she didn't want to be on that show. It's funny because as soon as a family member starts to get a little money that's when things get so messed up.😮😮 When Whitney died it's reported that her total assets were 8 million. She easily should have had hundreds of 200 million dollars.... And they keep making these stupid repetitive documentaries and movies over and over just to make more money.
You missed her best role! The fairy godmother in Cinderella as an inspiration of many black children to grow up with hope in their hearts!!!❤❤❤ She was an inspiration to Brandy!!!
Absolutely loved her so much when I was a little girl going through abuse & trauma she was inspiration her voice breathtakingly beautiful I adored her ❤ Can we all please take a moment to stop judging others & playing god she was a human being with the whole world on her shoulders a burden she carried for our entertainment we are all humans let’s not think we are above anyone & judge rip beautiful Whitney voice of an angel god bless you sweetheart 🙏🏽❤️💫
I really loved and admired Queen Whitney throughout my whole entire life. She was IT. Her talent was so inspiring. Her beauty was so natural and undeniable. I never cried over the death of a celebrity until hers. I literally sobbed. We were rooting for her til the very end. I miss her. Rest in heaven Angel ❤
Lmao who are these people? “Her dress was coming off during her x-factor and she didn’t notice”….she clearly noticed the strap came off. She was just professional and finished the performance.
Exactly. It's annoying when they make stuff up sometimes, puts you off the documentary. She didn't want to just look at it to draw attention to it, doesn't mean she didn't realise
I hate she let it destroy her cuz it will definitely destroy you, eventually 😢. Along with everything else she went thru & was going thru. Rest her soul
I still get goosebumps and cry listening to it AND IF IM LOOKING AT THE VIDEO IM MOST DEFINITELY CRYING AINT NOBODY EVER SONG THAT SONG LIKE THAT I DIDNT EVEN REALLY CARE FOR THE REGULAR VERSION BUT WHEN SHE SONG IT OMGGGG YOU FEEL THAT LADY AND HER ENERGY IT WAS OUT OF THIS WORLD TO SAY THE LEASE
Soooo sad… What a Beautiful Woman with a Beautiful voice.. actually don’t think we will ever see or hear anything like Whitney again… Stunning 😍 🩷🥰👏👏👏👏👏
No one will ever sing the Star Spangled Banner like Whitney Houston !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Whitney changed history with her voice. The 80's and 90's would not have been the same without Whitney !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Bobby Brown was an innovator and invigorator!!!!!!!!!!!!! God Bless them both 🙏!!!!!!!!!!!
A beautiful voice anda sad life and the ending of it. Her music will live beyond her, but a reminder that no one has a guarantee that tomorrow will in the minimum like yesterday
A lot of what is being said on this is without knowledge. Bobby was not looking for the spotlight at Whitney's funeral. The people that he brought with him were his children. Bobbi Kris's siblings. It was not that Whitney was high when she was performing where her dress came apart in the back. In an interview she explained that as professionals you are taught to not stop performing due to such things. Whitney didn't live in a huge home in Atlanta. She lived in a townhouse in Alpharetta. Whit was as self destructive as Bobby, He just helped heighten the problem she already had.
He WAY heightened what little issues she had. It isn't a coincidence that she fell into addiction after 96. A few years with a wife hating party animal will do that.
her issues were not little, though. she was already smoking crack before she even met Bobbi. it's well documented that Bobbi wasn't the drug addict in the relationship. his thing was alcohol. she was the drug addict. they heightened each other's issues if anything. @@shawnmartin7872
You don't go to anyone's funeral to cause a scene, if he was told to bring +2 then it's +2. He could've handled it better and actually show he was capable of leading. 🤷♀️
Now just IMAGINE if Whitney had MARRIED a man who was in her LEAGUE of GREATNESS, like Michael Jackson! OMG, as a MUSICAL POWER COUPLE, they would've completely DOMINATED in their field!! In addition to being a GREAT vocalist himself, Michael was also a SMART BUSINESSMAN! Unlike Brown, Mike would've known what to do with an EQUALLY TALENTED wife, like Whitney. As a MARRIED COUPLE, Michael and Whitney would've RULED the music business! I imagine they would've COMBINED their AMBITIONS, TALENTS and FORTUNES to go start their own MUSIC LABEL. After they got that venture off the ground, they would've EXPANDED their showbiz EMPIRE to other areas of entertainment! Og YEAH, Nip and Mike DEFINITELY would've done BIG THINGS, as a CELEBRITY POWER COUPLE!!
Y'all didn't cover Waiting To Exhale?!!! Omg that was one of her best come backs all time! Whitney broke records and made history! Waiting To Exhale was such an iconic moment for her
She is the GOAT, she had issues but who doesn’t in this life. I love her and she is my sister in Christ. I don’t care what anyone thinks. She is a child of God…
She knew herself just people wouldnt allow her to shine or should I say outshine them. It bothered them. She had to lower herself so people felt good about themselves.
And it usually strikes the world's greatest talents. Clearly their fame and success is used against them by all these "yes" people around them. So sad that no one cares about their mental heath and emotional well-being until their gone
Whitney has been one of my idols since the early 90s as I was born in 1982. She was a true diva and now she's an angel of God. You're forever missed. 😢
Her mother should have made sure she stayed in church. Her gift was from God and he said he "made us for his pleasure and his use" but her mom started taking her to night clubs. How do you take a child to a night club? Yes she became huge, but look at the price she paid. Her and her daughter's life😢😢😢😢😢
Her mom made her go into an empty swimming pool and practice over an over. Telling her you can hear yourself better in there,and know when you make a mistake. Hold that note a few more seconds.
@@AS-wj1du I know they do and that's why the devil lures them. He takes the gift God gave them and uses it for himself and cripples the person spiritually and they become zombies and eventually die too soon. The Bible asks a question, Why die before your time?
This Doc loses some credibility points for me. The fact that it is said that Bobby tried to make Whitney's funeral all about him is absurd. Bobby's "entourage" was his other Kids who once called Whitney "mom" because they all loved her. His son even said that he wanted to go up to his sister, but he was prevented from doing so. mind you, there were random celebrities who were allowed to be seated but Whitney's step-children were told they had to stand in the back. Yeah, I would have left too. because clearly that was more of a star-studded affair than an actual funeral. I doubt Whitney would have wanted that.
Her biological child which they shared together was in that funeral DEVASTATED because she lost her primary parent at 18 years old. The only thing that would have been on my mind was sitting next to my child and comforting her. Her “step children” would have just had to understand the situation for the moment and step aside. He let his daughter down. The Houston’s were wrong for the seating arrangement but that’s something that could and should’ve def been addressed after the fact. I would have never left my child to sit there and grieve and suffer w/o me being right next to them.
If he was told +2 it's what it is. He could've handled all that out of limelight and actually be there for his daughter(in case she wanted to). You don't come to someone's funeral to cause any scene.
Whitney was one of those singers that could reach deep into your soul and make you feel something. She was beautiful and her songs touched you in a way that no one else could. I absolutely loved and adored Whitney. I feel like Whitney was the greatest singer of my lifetime!!
Whitney Houston IS one of the greatest musical instruments of all time. She is dead because of him. Yet he is still alive and walking around. LIFE IS SO NOT FAIR !
I truly believe Nippy and Bobby where soulmates, he made her feel safe and loved ❤️ Bobby was an alcoholic, Nippy was a drug addict, they came together like that! It wasn’t one or the others fault.. Also In my opinion, Whitney was a young teenager when she met Robyn, she looked up to her and knew she would protect her. Whitney was experimenting with Robyn as many young girls do, but I believe Robyn wanted more and that put alot of pressure on Nippy, everyone around her wanted something from her when all she ever wanted was to be loved unconditionally from the people who mattered💔
Whitney wasnt a drug addict until 1996. She said she was a steady user during the Preachers Wife. Bobby pushed her into addict status. She was only a rare coke user before Brown
This is heartbreaking. Such talent, on both of them! They started as such a beautiful couple and became so toxic for each other.... And then, her daughter's story, is so tragic....
Yes he has I wish he would lose some weight and dance like his group because the rest of them still be killing it and Bobby use to be the best dancer besides Ronnie. I love new edition and Ralph is my favorite. They are true legends
the way she was before.....and after.....and in the end.....is heartbreaking. i can't remember if i was watching a documentary or maybe an episode of the "reality" show but she was in trouble. you could so see what had and was happening to her and all anybody cared about was.....will she be able to perform. how many times has THAT been a bottom line? b.b. was, is and will always be.....just spit in a bucket compared to whitney. he had his 15 minutes and that's all there was but that's jus' me. it was several years after her passing that i saw kevin costner's words at her service and it made me wish that she'd had more people around her who thought so very highly of her as what he did. maybe things would've turned out different.....maybe not.
Bobby wasn’t innocent & has his issues too but once again another documentary blaming Bobby brown for all of Whitney’s issues before, during & after him 🙄
I love Whitney but I hate it when people blame her family or Bobby, for her addiction problems. Whitney made her own choices and I don’t think she would want anyone else blamed for that.
Yes Bobby messed up but I don't like how these clowns are just dogging him like he's the devil and he's totally responsible for whitneys downfall.. she played her part too, god rest her soul
The whole line that Bobby Brown was responsible for Whitney's fall from grace is so over done. She was a mess long before Bobby came along. If Whitney would have been allowed to live her life on her terms, without her mother's judgment and rules maybe she would have had a chance at true love and happiness. Her love of drugs started young, Her love of Robin started in her teens. She denied herself that love. It's so sad.
Yes but the reality TV show was Bobby's idea. This show destroyed her. It's not only drugs or the fact she did not live a love story with Robin. Many things were going on in her life. Being the cow milk of many people was destroying her and her money. She was also the victicm of domestic violence!
True Whitney fans like myself were NEVER disappointed by Whitneys voice, even her speaking voice was awesome, I saw her live 3 times and my love and admiration for her grew and grew over the years. Anyone who felt disappointed with her , were not really fans, didn't appreciate the icon she was and didn't deserve to be at her concert in the 1st place!!!
Before she was born she chose her gifting, but she did not have the people around her to help her to carry it, her voice was stunning, and to be in a country that thinks it owns you, the burdens were huge and she was crushed by the weights, no country should be putting that sort of weight on a young girl, our princess, mother and daughter died in the same way and are now in heaven together, all the weight now off of Whitney.
The sad part is that she was a church girl, and she forgot about it when she became famous and did drugs. She says God this and that but her actions are opposite of His teachings in the end. Still , her music legacy will live forever in our hearts.
But you're wrong. She was doing drugs before she became famous. Apparently things happened to her so who are you to say she stopped following God? People around her say she struggled with her religion and conflicting lifestyle so what makes you think you can judge her? When she was doing the best she can. No one's perfect
@@AS-wj1du Stating facts doesn't necessarily ,equals to judging. There was no malice in my statement. She was one of my favs growing up in the 80's and listening to her music !
She didn't forget about church. The problem was she tried to mix church in with a secular lifestyle. That's a recipe for disaster and it never worked for anyone. You're either for God all the way or you're not. There is no lukewarm or middle ground.
The thing that people don't understand is show business is hard on a person's life alone. She looking for love. If you haven't been through an addiction of any kind you can't understand. Her daughter meant the world to her. People are always judging judging her and really don't know the person's real truth.
How much of her unhappiness was caused by her self denial of her love for a woman we will never know. It is a part of her story. It deserves to be told. I am so sad for her and her family.
I don’t think Whitney was denying it as much as it was the family & ppl around her. I think Whitney would’ve been fine declaring her ❤ for Robin but w/ what & who she had to contend w/ she just kept it close to the vest.. after all America’s Sweetheart could Never be a lesbian😮my word🫢
She tried to please everyone in her life ‘ to her mom ‘ singing ‘ even the black community, remarks of her‘ being to white’ she pleased Bobbi and his family ‘ her family not being who she really was a lesbian
The only thing is for sure in this sad history is that both Whitney Houston and her daughter Bobby Christina are in a better world and better place.. that got make us feel good ..
I still get chills listening her songs RIP Whitney🙏🏽💕btw that’s the wrong Marley picture .. that’s not Damian Marley that’s his older brother Stephen Marley.
Having lived in Philly,I have numerous personal experiences with Bobby Brown. Most were good. But HER. OMG. From Heaven. And Cissy is another example of Talent x100!! But ya....Her Star Spangled Banner....not a dry eye when She performed THAT. She is extremely talented AND missed.
My heart is broken all over again. I wish things were different for her and for Bobby Christina. Honestly for Bobby brown too. May Whitney and Bobby Christina continue to rest in paradise.
The Bobbi kristina story is often overlooked by the shadow of her famous mother , but she is the saddest thing about Whitney’s story. Poor baby never really stood a chance born into a life of addiction and turmoil.
😢😢😢😢😢😢
So true Krissy didn’t have a chance
Poor baby. She would've turned 30 this yr, had she lived. 😔😔 still very young. Her life was so brief.

Why is that so sad? She’s human and as humans we all are in spiritual warfare money n fame Dont exempt us from that
So if she wasn’t so beautiful, it wouldn’t be as sad? 😂 these comments are so weird
People of the world are so unforgiving, this woman spent her entire adult life performing and giving herself to us. No one considered she had a personal life and her own struggles. It took a lot for Whitney Houston to come back and do interviews and a new album after all she endured and that in itself should have touched the heart of all Americans to recieve her again! She deserved grace and compassion!
Her choice, no one held a gun to her head.
well said. thx. a legend

@@JK-lp6uw that’s true, and I think anyone who hasn’t struggled with addiction or had a close friend/family member struggle, would easily say that.

I wish they mentioned how she was SA as a child and her brother admitted to introducing her to drugs. There’s so much more to her story than what is told
Literally
That part
He introduced her but that's where it ended. Her and Bobbie created the addiction. You can use drugs and not become an addict.
My abuser will not hold me hostage forever. I do go up and down, but I refuse it to let him control all aspects of my life. He might control a very little, because it will never goes away. It is always there, but not controlling me forever. She had money and she refused to get better through her rehabs. It was her personality, she was no angel either. After a while, you must to own up your life. Whitney lived her life the way she wanted and she paid the price.
Bobby is always the default blame for her addiction. However, in an interview, one of her brothers admitted to giving g her an 1/8 ball of cocaine for her 16th birthday. Her cocaine use also derailed her relationships with Eddie Murphy and a famous football player. She had her own demons that formed a perfect storm with Bobby’s.
Despite her struggles, she was an icon and a talent that remains unmatched.
I saw the Oprah Winfrey interview with Whitney's mom and brother.
It was absolutely disgusting and heartbreaking to hear Whitney's brother talk about Dionne Warwick's sister molesting Whitney and one of her brothers, only to hear the mom respond "well I don't know nothing about that".
I'm like yeah ya do. Your son just said it. Therein lies the problem.
When sexual abuse is denied and swept under the rug, it's as traumatizing as the sexual abuse itself.
My mom did that to me
@annaanderson655 And mine did it to me. I told her when I was 12, fifty years ago, that my "father" was molested me. Her response was "get out of here you liar". She still refuses to acknowledge what happened
My brother died 7 weeks ago. On his death bed, he called our mom over and told her it happened and she failed to protect me.
After my brother died, on the way home,my other brothers told her it happened and that I felt as though she failed to protect me.
That was 7 weeks ago and she's not made an attempt to make it right. So pathetic
@@godlygirls62 I am so sorry. I cannot imagine how much that has affected you throughout your life. The fact that your mom doesn’t care or show any compassion for her children is disgusting. As a mom myself, it makes me SO angry for you. 💙
I know the feeling I was molested by my mom’s niece and my dad’s nephew at age 6 all the way up to 14 I’m 32 years old now and still to this day my dad doesn’t believe me and neither does my aunt they’re both in denial
@@godlygirls62I’m so very very very sorry that happened to you but I definitely believe you and you’re not alone and I pray that you heal ❤️🩹 and as for your mom GOD’S gonna deal with her for not believing you and failing to protect you.
Whitney was the Bomb of a Singer. Like she said , "They'll never be another me." She was right. I lo ved Whitney Houston. She had a hell of a life, in her short time here. I can't imagine, living a life, like that. Where your always, in the public, and never, having much time, to chill and relax, always, trying to please, other's. Even with the sacrifice, some people still didn't appreciate , who she was. A beautiful, down to earth, talented singer, who loved, her fans, and they loved, her til, she stumbled. That's the public, you can't truly , trust them. She was the one, putting, in all the work and hectic, schedules. Which I see, how humanly, possible, she did all that. Still when you stumble a bit folks, turn they're back on you and are two faced, anyway. They couldn't see as good as Whitney on her worse, day and talked abt, her like a dog, after she, encountered a lot of troubles. I never did drugs, and had no desire to. I probably wouldn't feel that way, if I was in her world. Like she said it's low down and dirty. No one knows, or cares, why people do drugs, they , just talk abt them and lack compassion. No one lived, her life but her. I beg you all to listen, to , DON"T CRY, for Me. It surely will make you smile, and cry, at the same time. She totally , destroyed, that song, in the BEST way, her ability to sing wth such, emotion and conviction, was phenomenal. I miss her. Her songs, are still being played, in restaurants, and stores. That song, she goes, up, and holds, those, notes, and brings, them back down. Then there's a point in the song, where, she looks, up to her , HEAVENLY , Father, like she's talking to him, in the feeling, of what she's singing. My favorite is the Red Dress, live video with the troops, and Kirk Whalum, playing, that sax. She knew she was the bomb, of a singer, nothing but teeth, of the troops, were showing. She could captivate an audience, like no other. Cissy was smiling turning, around, look like saying, you see that, that's my girl. Someone in the family, on Bobby's side, told what really, happened. Her death was not what they told us, and that was tragic, for poor , Whitney, everyone, left her alone, when she needed to be protected. n What really , happened was tragic. Not the drugs, did she die, from,. Mediia liars. RIP Queen, this world and Industry, is to much. Her God will take care of her. Thank, her for all the wonderful memories. People now are making money, off her fame, and shes been gone, since 2012.. It's all abt money, to many people are supposedly died of drugs, just because they did drugs, but that wasn't how they died, in some cases, and in hers. RIP Queen, Diva, of all Times. Thank you, Whitney.
Thank you well said, and you are so right. You're not Alone, we that love Whitney feel the same way.💜💜
I’ve never fanned out, followed or cared about a celebrity- except for Whitney Houston. She will always be the greatest.
@@SJ-ni6iyFacts 💯🙏🏾😢🌹
Is this Comment going to be a NETFLIX Series? 😅
Crystal : too long , just write a book 😊
The drugs stared long before Bobby. It was her brother Michael who started her at 14. When it comes to Bobby Brown, he was in a successful group with a crooked Manager Maurice Star who had them traveling the world but still living in the projects. He stole their earnings. When Bobby met Whitney he was 21 with 2 kids. She was 26. We have to stop blaming her life on Bobby.
Exactly! That s hard! My older brother and me use together c and more. And my partner and me as well. Now we rehabed but every day its a struggle. Whitney is my Angel❤
He had an obligation of responsibility for the care of his children and he was negligent and irresponsible for the well being of his kids and wife.
Yes. You are correct in saying that he is not to blame for the loss of her life.
@leeleemee lol he's not responsible for Whitney drug use. He's responsible for his children
@@kentthomason6285 Please think. He as a man had a degree of responsibility for his home and all members within. He was negligent as a father and husband. Absolutely not responsible for her habits or death. He did not manage his home and family properly/ well.
The Whitney Houston story will be told many years down the road again and again 🙏🏽
She was SO BEAUTIFUL ❤ with a BEAUTIFUL VOICE to match
Not a single person knows what Whitney Houston went through and felt but Whitney herself. Family, friends and associates cannot talk for her. Let alone anyone else who watches this or any other documentary. With all the documentaries done on Whitney, even her family, friends and associates have changed what they have said from one documentary to another.
How much they knew or speculate about her life. They've been there with her ?no
So what’s your point?? Feel better now that you told everyone off??
Oh absolutely there's been so many lies and contradictions we'll never know the truth
I agree. I recommend the documentary 'Can I Be Me' by Nick Broomfield. It' was done with respect and compassion for Whitney and her struggles and the story is told by people who were close to her or knew her well.
Marrying Bobby Brown was the worst decision Whitney made. She could have had her choice of the cream of the crop. Bobby was insecure, immature and tried to dim her light. I am aware that the drugs started before Bobby, but dealing with a man who cheats and is verbally and physically abusive did not help her mental health. Bobby spent most of their marriage getting arrested and Whitney bailed him out time and time again. Bobby was talented but he peaked before the age of 25. He was his own worst enemy and Whitney's too.
💯💯 Agreed 👍🏾
Well Bobby did take responsibility saying they failed their daughter doing those hard core drugs and that man had been the through slot since he was a child he been losing people he loves. He wanted to stay with Whitney but he got clean and she didn’t want to and that’s why they divorced because after his stroke he wanted to stay sober from drugs but he admitted he still
Had the Alcohol problem
But had not did drugs in about 15 years.
@@chaquitaporter9045The reason why they divorced wasn’t because Whitney didn’t want to get clean. Bobby lied too much about his drug addiction. In her documentary they said that it’s true that Bobby wanted her to get clean, but when She finally decided to get clean, he wasn’t supportive and he started to mess with superhead Karrine Steffans again. Karrine even said that Bobby wasn’t that clean when him and Whitney separated because he was still using and after their divorce he was arrested for drug’s possession.
Agree👍
You know people's business too much. How do you know she could have had anyone she wanted? She chose who she chose. People like to blame Bobby for everything when Whitney clearly had a traumatic childhood just like he did. He's still alive, she's not unfortunately. He didn't get her drugged. They were both bad for each other but maybe she would have struggled with anyone or maybe she would be happier with Robyn? Who knows. People love to blame Robyn or Bobby but yet she still died and they were nowhere near. The sweet and sad thing is when people become successful they want to look after their loved ones. That she was looking after 50 people is so nice but that can make people broke. Sadly it looks like Whitney's mother didn't do her job as a mother as she wasn't around and Whitney and her siblings were mistreated and Whitney ended up not being there for her daughter either for a different reason. I don't think the reality show was that bad. Ratings come about when people are extra, it's often fake. And yes, maybe Bobby wanted to be the bigger one but that is almost all men. They all have egos. Let's say Whitney had married Kevin Costner as many men fantasise, he was a bit star and probably wouldn't have wanted her to be bigger than him either
He was clean when she died. Her substance abuse problems were her problem. Not his. That is how she chose to handle her problems. Like it or not, she loved Bobby Brown and he loved her. It’s not for us to judge,like, or understand why. Trying to live up to that “perfect image “ that was created about her was exhausting and enough to make her get high or go insane.
Exactly am getting sick of hearing that he destroyed her!!! When in Reality she was hiding her True-self behind a marriage, that even Bobby didn’t know about at 1st. I wish she would have came out and said she liked woman, maybe then she could Still be alive and happy. She might not of taken drugs at all if she was able to be her true self. The drugs most probably helped her cope with the secret that she hid from everyone.
You are so right about that!! I had the same problem and do you know who I blame? Myself!! Not my friends me
Facts
@@Keithst-e7z I hate when people try to blame others for their family or friends addiction
@@ladyb9108
I don't believe Whitney was a lesbian.
She had this relationship with Robin and yes they had something together.
But here was Whitney 17 years old, and already using drugs. Why not experimented with sex?
She and Robin had a great friendship but she loved men.
And Bobby was a badboy but he had nothing to do with introducing her to drug.
Bye the way, who lives from her money? Yes her family.
Her brothers did'nt protect her. No they were introducing and doing drugs with her.
So stop blaming Bobby for all the bad stuff that happend to her.
He had a part true. But the biggest was her family. They failed her!.
Whitney’s rendition of the National Anthem is the only one that has moved me to tears.
1 of the greatest & most beautiful voices in history
I see a striking trait of being soft-spoken in Whitney Houston, Michael Jackson and Princess Diana
What are you talking about? Girl that shit was an act. Whitney was from the hood and operated as such. You damn well an adult Black man’s voice isn’t that damn light and airy. Michael Jackson was acting based on a crafted image. I don’t know much about Diana but I definitely can’t compare her to two Black Americans.
Prince, Michael jackson, and Whitney Houston all had people surrounding them telling them what they wanted to hear all the time. They all took advantage of her and the saddest part is it was indeed her own brother who was the worst. Gary and Pat pushed Whitney's daughter to do this lame reality show right after Whitney's eyes....
Her daughter literally repeated over and over on that stupid reality show that she didn't want to be on that show.
It's funny because as soon as a family member starts to get a little money that's when things get so messed up.😮😮 When Whitney died it's reported that her total assets were 8 million. She easily should have had hundreds of 200 million dollars.... And they keep making these stupid repetitive documentaries and movies over and over just to make more money.
You missed her best role! The fairy godmother in Cinderella as an inspiration of many black children to grow up with hope in their hearts!!!❤❤❤ She was an inspiration to Brandy!!!
Who else is here May 2024? And can actually see everything as it is truthfully with all that we know now.
May 2024
Oh, You know now , huh ?

Wasn’t an “accident” 👀.

The saddest thing about this is her daughter, Bobbi Kristina 😢
RIP Whitney and BCB. 😢❤ I would like to think you're together in Heaven an are happy.
Absolutely loved her so much when I was a little girl going through abuse & trauma
she was inspiration her voice breathtakingly beautiful
I adored her ❤
Can we all please take a moment to stop judging others & playing god she was a human being with the whole world on her shoulders a burden she carried for our entertainment
we are all humans let’s not think we are above anyone & judge
rip beautiful Whitney voice of an angel god bless you sweetheart 🙏🏽❤️💫
I really loved and admired Queen Whitney throughout my whole entire life. She was IT. Her talent was so inspiring. Her beauty was so natural and undeniable. I never cried over the death of a celebrity until hers. I literally sobbed. We were rooting for her til the very end. I miss her. Rest in heaven Angel ❤
💯🎯❤️❤️
It broke my heart. I remember coming home from work and finding out she passed. I hate how it ended for my princess
I cried through the entire service. It was so moving.
Lmao who are these people? “Her dress was coming off during her x-factor and she didn’t notice”….she clearly noticed the strap came off. She was just professional and finished the performance.
^^THAT part!!
Made a big to do outta a strap on her dress..I think Whitney handled the dress mishap very well and continued to perform!
Yeah, I was confused about that
Exactly 💯
Exactly. It's annoying when they make stuff up sometimes, puts you off the documentary. She didn't want to just look at it to draw attention to it, doesn't mean she didn't realise
Whitney’s voice is mesmerizing & incredible. I can’t believe addiction destroyed her like that 😢
I'm also sad.
I hate she let it destroy her cuz it will definitely destroy you, eventually 😢. Along with everything else she went thru & was going thru. Rest her soul
Get it right...BOBBY BROWN WAS HER DOWN FALL he looked like her PIMP
Thanks BOBBY BROWN you drug infested GOOF
Thank her husband
Such a beautiful talented woman....rest in power Whitney
Whitney singing “The Star Spangled Banner” at the Super Bowl half time show.
No one has ever come close or equalled Whitney's voice or ever will, that performance will remain untouchable.
I still get goosebumps and cry listening to it AND IF IM LOOKING AT THE VIDEO IM MOST DEFINITELY CRYING AINT NOBODY EVER SONG THAT SONG LIKE THAT I DIDNT EVEN REALLY CARE FOR THE REGULAR VERSION BUT WHEN SHE SONG IT OMGGGG YOU FEEL THAT LADY AND HER ENERGY IT WAS OUT OF THIS WORLD TO SAY THE LEASE
She sang it like nobody before or since and probably ever. Absolute perfection and she didn't change the melody.
Yeah Whitney and Roseanne Barr are the only two I remember ever singing the star spangled banner
Best ever
Heartbreaking. RIP Whitney! I will always love you.
Soooo sad… What a Beautiful Woman with a Beautiful voice.. actually don’t think we will ever see or hear anything like Whitney again… Stunning 😍 🩷🥰👏👏👏👏👏
This was very informative. Rest in peace Whitney and Bobbi Christina💕
No one will ever sing the Star Spangled Banner like Whitney Houston !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Whitney changed history with her voice. The 80's and 90's would not have been the same without Whitney !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Bobby Brown was an innovator and invigorator!!!!!!!!!!!!! God Bless them both 🙏!!!!!!!!!!!

When the person said Whitney's " How Will I Know"
" sums up a decade" I concur 100000%❤
A beautiful voice anda sad life and the ending of it. Her music will live beyond her, but a reminder that no one has a guarantee that tomorrow will in the minimum like yesterday
A lot of what is being said on this is without knowledge. Bobby was not looking for the spotlight at Whitney's funeral. The people that he brought with him were his children. Bobbi Kris's siblings. It was not that Whitney was high when she was performing where her dress came apart in the back. In an interview she explained that as professionals you are taught to not stop performing due to such things. Whitney didn't live in a huge home in Atlanta. She lived in a townhouse in Alpharetta. Whit was as self destructive as Bobby, He just helped heighten the problem she already had.
Thank you. Now I won't waste my time watching this.
He WAY heightened what little issues she had. It isn't a coincidence that she fell into addiction after 96. A few years with a wife hating party animal will do that.
He didnt deserve or need any spotlight at the funeral , they were divorced .
her issues were not little, though. she was already smoking crack before she even met Bobbi. it's well documented that Bobbi wasn't the drug addict in the relationship. his thing was alcohol. she was the drug addict. they heightened each other's issues if anything. @@shawnmartin7872
You don't go to anyone's funeral to cause a scene, if he was told to bring +2 then it's +2. He could've handled it better and actually show he was capable of leading. 🤷♀️
Meeting him was the beginning of the end. She had the voice of an angel.
She was a train wreck before she met him she was already heavily involved in cocaine
It was the beginning of the end for young Bobby. He was still a baby when she swooped him up. She had already been around the block.
No one is responsible for others addictions…I’m so sorry for her
Now just IMAGINE if Whitney had MARRIED a man who was in her LEAGUE of GREATNESS, like Michael Jackson! OMG, as a MUSICAL POWER COUPLE, they would've completely DOMINATED in their field!! In addition to being a GREAT vocalist himself, Michael was also a SMART BUSINESSMAN! Unlike Brown, Mike would've known what to do with an EQUALLY TALENTED wife, like Whitney. As a MARRIED COUPLE, Michael and Whitney would've RULED the music business! I imagine they would've COMBINED their AMBITIONS, TALENTS and FORTUNES to go start their own MUSIC LABEL. After they got that venture off the ground, they would've EXPANDED their showbiz EMPIRE to other areas of entertainment! Og YEAH, Nip and Mike DEFINITELY would've done BIG THINGS, as a CELEBRITY POWER COUPLE!!
@@saffirechanning7286 Michael Jackson didn't like women though lol
Y'all didn't cover Waiting To Exhale?!!! Omg that was one of her best come backs all time! Whitney broke records and made history! Waiting To Exhale was such an iconic moment for her
Wanna dance with me WAS the 80s..what a singing sensation..
The music industry along with the Fame it brings never seems to truly fulfill the Artists Dream but instead consumes them. RIP Angel.
She is the GOAT, she had issues but who doesn’t in this life. I love her and she is my sister in Christ. I don’t care what anyone thinks. She is a child of God…
Rip Whitney ❤
Imo, theres not another voice that compares to her voice, its so angelic
Beautiful with an incredible voice R.I.P Whitney 🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸
She died still trying to find herself that's sad. Beautiful woman by any standard 💔
She knew herself just people wouldnt allow her to shine or should I say outshine them. It bothered them. She had to lower herself so people felt good about themselves.
The power of addiction killed many greats- Elvis, MJ, Prince, Whitney, etc... Shows fame and fortune mean little when there's no inner peace.
Well said.
And it usually strikes the world's greatest talents. Clearly their fame and success is used against them by all these "yes" people around them. So sad that no one cares about their mental heath and emotional well-being until their gone
So sad, so Tragic! Beautiful Souls lost!! RIP mother and daughter!
Whitney has been one of my idols since the early 90s as I was born in 1982. She was a true diva and now she's an angel of God. You're forever missed. 😢
Excellent video!!! God I miss Whitney ❤️😇

Rip to both mother and daughter !!!! So very sad
Her mother should have made sure she stayed in church. Her gift was from God and he said he "made us for his pleasure and his use" but her mom started taking her to night clubs. How do you take a child to a night club?
Yes she became huge, but look at the price she paid. Her and her daughter's life😢😢😢😢😢
Her mom made her go into an empty swimming pool and practice over an over. Telling her you can hear yourself better in there,and know when you make a mistake. Hold that note a few more seconds.
Sam Cooke was in the Church too and knew they'd disapprove of pop music. But you think about it most singers start in Church. Whitney, Sam, Aretha etc
@@AS-wj1du I know they do and that's why the devil lures them. He takes the gift God gave them and uses it for himself and cripples the person spiritually and they become zombies and eventually die too soon. The Bible asks a question, Why die before your time?
@@sashax9621 I think like you.....we all will be asked: Why...? But she had a gift from God, the drugs destroyed God's plan.
Her music was clean and positive though. In many of her songs she worshipped God.
This is soo sad i cant help but feel her daughter could not cope without Whitney. They are together now RIP
How are she and her daughter together?
This Doc loses some credibility points for me. The fact that it is said that Bobby tried to make Whitney's funeral all about him is absurd. Bobby's "entourage" was his other Kids who once called Whitney "mom" because they all loved her. His son even said that he wanted to go up to his sister, but he was prevented from doing so. mind you, there were random celebrities who were allowed to be seated but Whitney's step-children were told they had to stand in the back. Yeah, I would have left too. because clearly that was more of a star-studded affair than an actual funeral. I doubt Whitney would have wanted that.
Her biological child which they shared together was in that funeral DEVASTATED because she lost her primary parent at 18 years old. The only thing that would have been on my mind was sitting next to my child and comforting her. Her “step children” would have just had to understand the situation for the moment and step aside. He let his daughter down. The Houston’s were wrong for the seating arrangement but that’s something that could and should’ve def been addressed after the fact. I would have never left my child to sit there and grieve and suffer w/o me being right next to them.
If he was told +2 it's what it is. He could've handled all that out of limelight and actually be there for his daughter(in case she wanted to). You don't come to someone's funeral to cause any scene.
Whitney was so beautiful and talented. 😢 Heartbreaking how her life turned out. The world lost an amazing woman the day she passed. 💔
Whitney Houston multi talented vocalist of all time 👍👍✅
Yes
To me best singer ever n so beautiful!❤️✝️
Whitney was one of those singers that could reach deep into your soul and make you feel something. She was beautiful and her songs touched you in a way that no one else could. I absolutely loved and adored Whitney. I feel like Whitney was the greatest singer of my lifetime!!

Missed Ms Diva, no one like you. Your voice is unique. RIP Whitney & Kristina
I truly believe Nippy and Bobby where soulmates, he made her feel safe and loved ❤️ Bobby was an alcoholic, Nippy was a drug addict, they came together like that! It wasn’t one or the others fault.. Also In my opinion, Whitney was a young teenager when she met Robyn, she looked up to her and knew she would protect her. Whitney was experimenting with Robyn as many young girls do, but I believe Robyn wanted more and that put alot of pressure on Nippy, everyone around her wanted something from her when all she ever wanted was to be loved unconditionally from the people who mattered💔
Whitney wasnt a drug addict until 1996. She said she was a steady user during the Preachers Wife. Bobby pushed her into addict status. She was only a rare coke user before Brown
I think he know who killed Whitney and her daughter. Two people who have so much to live for don't die this way. Too suspicious.
Suspicious is how they both met their end under similar circumstances.
This is heartbreaking. Such talent, on both of them! They started as such a beautiful couple and became so toxic for each other.... And then, her daughter's story, is so tragic....
He was toxic not her. She wasn't using drugs until he started beating her.
@@bonnies4230u should know that whitney was using drugs before bobby
@@bonnies4230Whitney's brother gave her c*ke and weed for her 16th birthday. She had a problem long before she met Bobby.
Bobby is so humble now he has came a long way..
Not such an asshole you mean?
Yes he has
I wish he would lose some weight and dance like his group because the rest of them still be killing it and Bobby use to be the best dancer besides Ronnie. I love new edition and Ralph is my favorite. They are true legends
My heart goes out to Bobby Brown. What a tragedy.
He's an idiot! ,
Yeah just took til after killing his first wife til he matured.
the way she was before.....and after.....and in the end.....is heartbreaking. i can't remember if i was watching a documentary or maybe an episode of the "reality" show but she was in trouble. you could so see what had and was happening to her and all anybody cared about was.....will she be able to perform. how many times has THAT been a bottom line? b.b. was, is and will always be.....just spit in a bucket compared to whitney. he had his 15 minutes and that's all there was but that's jus' me. it was several years after her passing that i saw kevin costner's words at her service and it made me wish that she'd had more people around her who thought so very highly of her as what he did. maybe things would've turned out different.....maybe not.
Bobby wasn’t innocent & has his issues too but once again another documentary blaming Bobby brown for all of Whitney’s issues before, during & after him 🙄
I love Whitney but I hate it when people blame her family or Bobby, for her addiction problems. Whitney made her own choices and I don’t think she would want anyone else blamed for that.
Yes Bobby messed up but I don't like how these clowns are just dogging him like he's the devil and he's totally responsible for whitneys downfall.. she played her part too, god rest her soul
Whitney is an icon and an internantional artist, she will always be remembered❤😊
The whole line that Bobby Brown was responsible for Whitney's fall from grace is so over done. She was a mess long before Bobby came along. If Whitney would have been allowed to live her life on her terms, without her mother's judgment and rules maybe she would have had a chance at true love and happiness. Her love of drugs started young, Her love of Robin started in her teens. She denied herself that love. It's so sad.
Thank you. Very slanted reporting.
Yes but the reality TV show was Bobby's idea. This show destroyed her. It's not only drugs or the fact she did not live a love story with Robin. Many things were going on in her life. Being the cow milk of many people was destroying her and her money. She was also the victicm of domestic violence!
As if she was an angel. Child please

To me Whitney is the best singer ever n so beautiful ✝️❤️
True Whitney fans like myself were NEVER disappointed by Whitneys voice, even her speaking voice was awesome, I saw her live 3 times and my love and admiration for her grew and grew over the years. Anyone who felt disappointed with her , were not really fans, didn't appreciate the icon she was and didn't deserve to be at her concert in the 1st place!!!
Before she was born she chose her gifting, but she did not have the people around her to help her to carry it, her voice was stunning, and to be in a country that thinks it owns you, the burdens were huge and she was crushed by the weights, no country should be putting that sort of weight on a young girl, our princess, mother and daughter died in the same way and are now in heaven together, all the weight now off of Whitney.
The sad part is that she was a church girl, and she forgot about it when she became famous and did drugs. She says God this and that but her actions are opposite of His teachings in the end. Still , her music legacy will live forever in our hearts.
Please dont judge her so harshly. She was special. Noone is perfect.
Church people are the worst. Definitely the worst.
But you're wrong. She was doing drugs before she became famous. Apparently things happened to her so who are you to say she stopped following God? People around her say she struggled with her religion and conflicting lifestyle so what makes you think you can judge her? When she was doing the best she can. No one's perfect
@@AS-wj1du Stating facts doesn't necessarily ,equals to judging. There was no malice in my statement. She was one of my favs growing up in the 80's and listening to her music !
She didn't forget about church. The problem was she tried to mix church in with a secular lifestyle. That's a recipe for disaster and it never worked for anyone. You're either for God all the way or you're not. There is no lukewarm or middle ground.
The thing that people don't understand is show business is hard on a person's life alone. She looking for love. If you haven't been through an addiction of any kind you can't understand. Her daughter meant the world to her. People are always judging judging her and really don't know the person's real truth.
Would be interested in a doc all about when they lived in Georgia.
How much of her unhappiness was caused by her self denial of her love for a woman we will never know. It is a part of her story. It deserves to be told. I am so sad for her and her family.
I feel the same.
I don’t think Whitney was denying it as much as it was the family & ppl around her. I think Whitney would’ve been fine declaring her ❤ for Robin but w/ what & who she had to contend w/ she just kept it close to the vest.. after all America’s Sweetheart could Never be a lesbian😮my word🫢
Eew, Whitney knew that was wrong.
Don't buy into that lie. If that were true Whitney would've disclosed it. She was a Christian.

When I love some people, i cannot watch them ruin themselves, so i Only watched that show maybe twice. I loved Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown both. ❤
She tried to please everyone in her life ‘ to her mom ‘ singing ‘ even the black community, remarks of her‘ being to white’ she pleased Bobbi and his family ‘ her family not being who she really was a lesbian
You don't know if Whitney was a lesbian.
@@seaor2k122 she was. Many are.
I love Whitney so much 😢 REST IN POWER Whit we will always remember you ❤💞
Thank you for the memories of such a beautiful gifted soul.There is no such thing as an abusive relationship.One is the predator...One is the victim.
Still cry over Whitney death till date...heartbreaking tragic story...she will forever be loved and missed big time.
The most perfect voice ever.
A heartbreaking ending to her family. Rumor has it that both her and her daughter well killed.
Omgod! That clip of Whitney singing part of M.J.'s song... omg made me tear up for her! Wow she looked so think and sickly
I will always love you, Whitney Elisabeth... Till we meet again...
The only thing is for sure in this sad history is that both Whitney Houston and her daughter Bobby Christina are in a better world and better place.. that got make us feel good ..
I still get chills listening her songs RIP Whitney🙏🏽💕btw that’s the wrong Marley picture .. that’s not Damian Marley that’s his older brother Stephen Marley.
Thank You !!!!!!!!❤😊
Whitney can sing, even at her worst she is so good. RIP my fav singer of all time
she's a QUEEN
Having lived in Philly,I have numerous personal experiences with Bobby Brown. Most were good. But HER. OMG. From Heaven. And Cissy is another example of Talent x100!! But ya....Her Star Spangled Banner....not a dry eye when She performed THAT. She is extremely talented AND missed.
My heart is broken all over again. I wish things were different for her and for Bobby Christina. Honestly for Bobby brown too. May Whitney and Bobby Christina continue to rest in paradise.
He was jealous of her success
Me he wasn’t you idiot
Ain't No Way!! I had no idea it was Whitney's mom in the background. That song touches me in ways I never thought music could. Aretha did, in fact ❤
