These are truer, they want to break you and they work hard to break you but that's because it takes them a little while to figure out that you're unbreakable.
Listen to Whitney here 0:17 “I don't sing white and I don't sing black, I sing”. Back in the late 80s I remember Whitney was criticized by the R&B music audience for her music sounding too white, too pop. She was booed at the Soul Train Music Awards in 1988. Just an FYI for those of you who weren't around then. You can google an article I read...“remember when whitney houston got booed for being too white”.
It breaks my heart that she could never live a normal life. They all destroyed her. She was not only a pretty face. She was a beautiful soul. She was honest like no other artist.
Most gifted singer to ever exist, hands down with no questions asked. Also the most beautiful one to boot. Finally.. the most well spoken human being i have ever had the pleasure of listening to. She was real 💯❤
Nope. The information was actually wrong, she only had 2 Grammys, and 12 AMA’s before the bodyguard was released. She has 6 grammys in her entire career the last one was in 2000.
Most beautiful person I’ve ever seen. @1:07 look at her face... To both LOOK and SOUND like that is impossible; a combination of beauty and vocal talent never to be witnessed again.
Whoever was doing fact checking over there needs to be FIRED! 9 Grammys (it was 2 at the time), 9 consecutive #1 hits (she had 7 consecutive #1s and 9 #1 hits total), her second concert tour (it was her third world tour)!!! Geez!
Bill Orielly’s mentioning of the bodyguard toward the end gave me chills. He said it so nonchalantly. Now looking back who knew that movie would have thrusted her into superstardom.
and whats crazier is that whit was already an established superstar. That movie lifted her to extreme heights only mj has reached. RIP to both of them :))
She never said She wasn't .. She merely stated she doesn't preach about who she sleeps with.... Her & Robyn Definitely had a thing Why else would She have kept Her around so long even when it went against Bobbys wishes.. Come on Ppl ffs Plus Robyn leaving was the worst thing ever because it was Robyn who kept her on the right track ,the only one who tried to help Her
0:35 She had a record-setting seven consecutive #1 hits followed by “Love Will Save the Day” which peaked at #9 and “One Moment in Time” at #5, then “I’m Your Baby Tonight” and “All the Man That I Need” becoming her eighth and ninth #1s.
Nothing about this womans personal life is anyones business. ALL I KNOW, is that she hands down had a gift from God. That voice will never be beaten I dont care.
John Palermo: Thank you, John. What speaks volumes to me is that eight years later (today is the aniversary of her very early & untimely demise), we're still talking about her sexuality. I never cared about the packaging. It disturbs me that the media rarely, if ever, mention all her GOOD DEEDS. For example: Her 12.5 Million dollar donation to Hale House, for her wedding in lieu of gifts she asked donations be made to the WH Foundation for Children, her tireless efforts in raising funds for the Juvenile Diabetes Foundation, St. Jude's,United Negro College Fund, Special Olympics, TJ Martell Foundation, etc., etc., etc. How about they write about that for a change.

@@user-xr8co4oi8h good question. I think since her death, everyone has been bringing up just to get their names in the headlines. I think I heard her mom bring it up a couple years back, then Bobby for his book, now Robyn Crawford brought it up again for her book. I guess it is an interesting story to some people.
You don’t remember because back then rumors like this stayed among the tabloid press. Now shit like this is reported everywhere. Media is saturated with trashy rumors.
She signed her record deal when she was 18, that's when they went on the Merv Griffin show with Clyde Dave is introducing her that's his new talent, however her talent was so big, that he won it to take his time with her, and got only the best writers and producers to work on her debuted album, so she worked on her debut album for like a whole year now stop, so it did not come out until she was 20, however she was signed at 18
well bottom line if she was never ready to share about her sexuality then that was fine. she wasn’t ready she wanted to keep it to herself, if those robin rumours are actually true. who knows
@@kaerligheden wanna know what’s crazy about your comment. NOBODY, not even her mother denied what Robyn said. Whitney obviously wasn’t gay in her prime but Robyn and her shared something special as teenagers before Whitney’s career. A fling…something short lived, just like a LOT of ppl. Robyn shared her truth just like the rest of them. Whitney experienced what she did and moved on. I don’t believe she identified as gay at all. But i do think the stories Robyn shared were true. And her book was about WAY more than just Whitney. It narrated her own life too. Robyn has a solid foundation that she’s grown since she stopped working for Whitney, 20+ years ago. Lol this wasn’t a scheme to get money. If you actually read it you would know that. Instead of being LOUD and WRONG. Be blessed
He said it because Whitney told him about the relationship with Robyn when they were teenagers. It's not that he surprised them, she told him the truth. He said she love women because she had a lot of fun with them (automatically he thinks that she slept with them). I'm a woman and I have a lot of fun when I am with my girls - friends, it doesn't mean that I gay. Bobby was too insecure thoooo!
She right people are always in your business especially if you look successful here they come after you to tear you down and it’s a shame cause nothing is given you have to work hard to have something and she had to put in the work to be Whitney but it was harder to maintain cause of people.
She’s a whole different way prior to and after marrying Brown. Like someone said, she went into the stratosphere with the bodyguard, and she was with someone who she probably shouldn’t have been with. 🤷🏽♀️ life.
To me, a fulfilled and happy life can only be achieved with time spent with family and loved ones. Money is only a grease to make that happen smoothly.
Nobody really blinks an eye when singers say they are bi-sexual TODAY...but it was scandalous in the 80’s. However, everyone knew who was gay and it wasn’t a big deal. It’s just the media stirred the pot. It was always gossip that Robin was her GF though. But Whitney kept it classy and didn’t do like Madonna and Miley did.
@@tiffshea In the 80's Madonna skillfully played around with her bisexuality; Miley is open and in your face about it. Their behaviors got media attention; while Whitney never did any of that. But Madonna was always pulling media stunts.
OldskolFan I don’t think it would have been Whitney’s style to behave like Madonna or Miley Are you aware Whitney was very immersed in the church. I don’t think that would have been acceptable behaviour considering her holy upbringing. In fact, she always thanked her saviour on her award wins. The church idioms were deeply ingrained in her synapses. Homosexual behaviour was largely regarded and proclaimed as severely deviant.
@@ralex3697 no Whitney always kept it classy, for the most part, in her professional life. She didn't have a highly sexual act. She had her voice--she didn't need to use her sexuality to sell records. She wasn't perfect and she always thanked the Lord on stage and at awards. Lizzo, Madonna, Miley went for shock value for attention.
This was just a year before the global phenomenon known as The Bodyguard which would cement her name in history for good and catapult her to a stratospheric music titan status... WOW 😮
I’ll never feel fulfilled until I’m in my purpose . I don’t desire fame, money, houses, cars .. anything materialistic, that doesn’t make me happy. I want to live a life that matters, that helps others reach their full potential. & until I get there I’ll never feel satisfied...
The business of ones life is no ones business just as long as they are not hurting other people. What I liked about Whitney is that she did speak up and was unshamed about it she says it in her song she lives her live the way she wants to live it and quite frankly I love her honesty at least she didn't kill or hurt other people in the world or have hate for people. This society has gotten things wrong about how to live and it is the biggest problem in this society. I don't have problems with gay people because I knew gay people before the law was passed and so what I don't like about some people is that they try pushing it on the society and that is not god's doing be mindful who you serve people because the thought some of y'all have is not just you thought anymore and that means that is another thing on top of all the other shit I am dealing with today and it is not for our youth. My understanding is that one one is okay with who they are gay or not you do that for you and be respected for that but when you start pushing it to the point were people got to decide how to talk to their children about something that is real but don't need to know at the moment. Now as a woman with brown skin who already got to fight for self and children that don't understand that sometimes it is the parent who wanted the opposite sex the they got at birth and will stop at nothing to treat those kids cause the parent is so stuck on you are a boy not a girl even wants to get rights to have thier kids sex change before they know who they are yes it a choice and should be that kids choice even they are old enough. Why do some meaning a smaller group of people get to enjoy the life they want. All this people are doing is living out the illusions of what is going on in the body all day and make it real. Each and every living cell had a job to do and it is chaotic but has will find its way to meet other cells so that they follow the order in which they should go.
Scheena Farmer Sorry, hardly honest She was in deep denial, her interviews were less than flattering. She may have once believed her lyrics because she sang them with such conviction Sadly she is missed, RIP
Scheena Farmer No one is pushing anything. The media is nosey. They have an agenda and their goal is to find a juicy story at any cost. Whitney was the perfect victim, but when she was sober she handled the media flawlessly. It is only when her addictions got worse that the media got the better of her. When her thought processes weren’t as sharp, she should have ceased all interviews. During that time she was in no condition to deal with the media. They were relentless. Her unflattering interviews made things worse and I’m sure as a result she spiralled into deeper drug use. So very sad how they played her. She was the greatest ever, but her legacy was overshadowed by chaotic behaviours and constant denials. It was never under control
Drake Reid and that perhaps is because Mariah is biracial and white passing. She was treated differently than the black artists because she doesn’t look black
@@onedollarbleach6891 and all those rumors turned out to be true, as they say there is truth to every rumor. We are 2019 and it turns out Whitney Houston was Bisexual this whole time 🤧
@Raymond Brown Right, if they were such good friends, why would she bring this out now and disrespect Whitney's mom. Like Bobbi Christina said, everybody is fake".
@@user-xr8co4oi8h The only reason I'm interested is because I think she would have had a better life if she has been with Robyn instead of Bobby. She felt compelled to be with Bobby because of the reaction she was getting for not being black enough.
I find it sooooooo interesting that non famous women can try lesbian sex and stop yet retain their heterosexual label BUT Whitney gets labeled this the WHOLE of her life’s existence. Even Robyn herself admitted that they hadn’t been sexual since they were both teens on Wendy Williams. So if an experimental period makes Whitney a lesbian then THERE ARE MILLIONS MORE IN THE WORLD!
You can say anything you want about a dead person. I think Whitney wanted to keep her business private and if these hangers on respected her they would as well. Obviously none of them cared enough about her to intervene so they should just enjoy the money they got off her and shut up.
@@Machelle3200 So many people are writing books or selling stories about dead celebrities. You can literally say anything you want about a dead person. Nobody is alive to defend themselves so nobody can call you out for lying. Enough people were using people like Whitney, Michael and Prince when they were alive. Now that they are dead then let them rest in peace.
Crazy to hear how she was under such pressure to deny being gay, being specifically given a chance to deny those rumors. I respect her for not denying it, as a gay woman myself.
@@perypetierowerzystkizpozna585 Right, I did not mean to erase bysexuality at all, sorry if it came across like that! I sometimes use gay as a stand in for other, unspesified lgbt identities and it might be a good idea for me to reconsider that practice.
She denied it, probably in other interviews. She was always asked about Robin. She said they were friends from HS. But she had to keep it in the closet because it would’ve messed up her clean cut image. She was very popular in the Bible Belt.
a uma luz no fim do túnel. é o caminho certo que ela ja alcancou a paz interior. e se encontrou numa dimensao com Deus .a certeza de que Jesus esta cuidando dessa menina e sua filhinha. uma estrela que sempre brilhara
Happy for Whitney she did not practice a “lesbian” lifestyle praying for everyone struggling in this world. She’s free as a believer, Christ heard her cry-Matthew 6:33. R.I.P Nippy
@@dontedukes6201 no I don't walk in your shoes I'm sorry if it may seem like I came off a little rude I may not know your story but I'm willing to read it if you tell me. But I know God for myself and he is so real I remember one time my sister was having brain surgery and she had a stroke and the doctor thought she wasn't going to walk or talk again so the told me and my auntie this and we was crying so I dried my tears up and I started saying and confusing Jesus name over my sister you know the next day my sister was up and talking and walking and the doctor's couldn't believe it or how about the time we find out my mom had cancer and doctors thought she was gone die that night I said a prayer and God made a way my mom last 2 months later God is Good yes you need faith but think of him as your Greatest friend you can talk to him about anything and he listens and he will provide all your needs trust him I'm telling you don't give up on him.
It was so sexist because she wasn’t married to accuse her of being a lesbian. (It’s really in fashion at present to make everyone gay and a lot of pressure to especially make the dead gay) but I remember her commenting on how ridiculous it was that she was single at 27 and people were accusing her of being a lesbian. So slimy of the press. And now, the people.
you see, interview new reports talking about her sexuality must of been sooo annoying and so exhausting, 6-years into your career and one off the biggest topics is sexuality, I would of been so overwhelmed that that is one of the things people keep saying. to a certain point when your having a bad day it can get to you.
kaerligheden bobby brown said in his autobiography that whitney likes women too, she had many affairs. Whitney is at least bisexual. 99% of hollywood celebrities have slept with same sex.
I Love Whitney and I do believe she's the Best simger I've ever heard but it still makes me wonder why she lived her relationship with Bobby Brown in the public eye 🤔? She did want to get rid of the lesbian image but still, she knew what would be the consequences, like she clearly said in this 1991 interview and she did the total opposite. Doesn't make any sense at all...
"They make you to break you." Truer words were never spoken.
They make you think they had this planned all along... Making her sing greatest love of all...ironic
These are truer, they want to break you and they work hard to break you but that's because it takes them a little while to figure out that you're unbreakable.
I love hearing Whitney talk.
Me too.

At first sight you may think is true, but if you go deep you will see the truth! But unfortunately people can't see the truth
@@kaerligheden What are you babbling about?! 🥴
@@kaerligheden wanna know what’s crazy about your comment. NOBODY, not even her mother denied what Robyn said. Whitney obviously wasn’t gay in her prime but Robyn and her shared something special as teenagers before Whitney’s career. A fling…something short lived, just like a LOT of ppl. Robyn shared her truth just like the rest of them. Whitney experienced what she did and moved on. I don’t believe she identified as gay at all. But i do think the stories Robyn shared were true. And her book was about WAY more than just Whitney. It narrated her own life too. Robyn has a solid foundation that she’s grown since she stopped working for Whitney, 20+ years ago. Lol this wasn’t a scheme to get money. If you actually read it you would know that. Instead of being LOUD and WRONG. Be blessed
Her mom is Teresa Graves
The Greatest EVER
Just imagine in a different world when Whitney could be out and proud about who she was!
True like queen Latifa Neicy Nash many more
My baby ❤️❤️🥰
Bobby Brown said in a interview (i remember in 2018) that Whitney can love women and confirmed the relationship of her with Robyn.
He said it because Whitney told him about the relationship with Robyn when they were teenagers. It's not that he surprised them, she told him the truth. He said she love women because she had a lot of fun with them (automatically he thinks that she slept with them). I'm a woman and I have a lot of fun when I am with my girls - friends, it doesn't mean that I gay. Bobby was too insecure thoooo!
She right people are always in your business especially if you look successful here they come after you to tear you down and it’s a shame cause nothing is given you have to work hard to have something and she had to put in the work to be Whitney but it was harder to maintain cause of people.
Cissy Houston said in her book that she told her mom she wanted to sing professionally at I believe 12 years old? So,one of them is lying.
The lesbian rumors went public early on 😵
She would still be here if people had just let her live.
Agreed.
People made her do drugs for years? You sure about that?
She’s a whole different way prior to and after marrying Brown. Like someone said, she went into the stratosphere with the bodyguard, and she was with someone who she probably shouldn’t have been with. 🤷🏽♀️ life.
Beauty gets used and destroyed by predators
Emma Philomena
This does happen, I agree
To me, a fulfilled and happy life can only be achieved with time spent with family and loved ones.
Money is only a grease to make that happen smoothly.
She said they make you to break you lol That Part … That’s an ICONIC statement from her in this interview
Second tour? They mean her third world tour (and fifth tour overall).
Nobody really blinks an eye when singers say they are bi-sexual TODAY...but it was scandalous in the 80’s. However, everyone knew who was gay and it wasn’t a big deal. It’s just the media stirred the pot. It was always gossip that Robin was her GF though. But Whitney kept it classy and didn’t do like Madonna and Miley did.
Madonna and Miley?
@@tiffshea In the 80's Madonna skillfully played around with her bisexuality; Miley is open and in your face about it. Their behaviors got media attention; while Whitney never did any of that. But Madonna was always pulling media stunts.
OldskolFan
I don’t think it would have been Whitney’s style to behave like Madonna or Miley
Are you aware Whitney was very immersed in the church. I don’t think that would have been acceptable behaviour considering her holy upbringing. In fact, she always thanked her saviour on her award wins.
The church idioms were deeply ingrained in her synapses. Homosexual behaviour was largely regarded and proclaimed as severely deviant.
OldskolFan
Very well said
@@ralex3697 no Whitney always kept it classy, for the most part, in her professional life. She didn't have a highly sexual act. She had her voice--she didn't need to use her sexuality to sell records. She wasn't perfect and she always thanked the Lord on stage and at awards. Lizzo, Madonna, Miley went for shock value for attention.
My mom looked exactly like Whitney.
This was just a year before the global phenomenon known as The Bodyguard which would cement her name in history for good and catapult her to a stratospheric music titan status... WOW 😮
I’ll never feel fulfilled until I’m in my purpose . I don’t desire fame, money, houses, cars .. anything materialistic, that doesn’t make me happy. I want to live a life that matters, that helps others reach their full potential. & until I get there I’ll never feel satisfied...
The business of ones life is no ones business just as long as they are not hurting other people. What I liked about Whitney is that she did speak up and was unshamed about it she says it in her song she lives her live the way she wants to live it and quite frankly I love her honesty at least she didn't kill or hurt other people in the world or have hate for people. This society has gotten things wrong about how to live and it is the biggest problem in this society. I don't have problems with gay people because I knew gay people before the law was passed and so what I don't like about some people is that they try pushing it on the society and that is not god's doing be mindful who you serve people because the thought some of y'all have is not just you thought anymore and that means that is another thing on top of all the other shit I am dealing with today and it is not for our youth. My understanding is that one one is okay with who they are gay or not you do that for you and be respected for that but when you start pushing it to the point were people got to decide how to talk to their children about something that is real but don't need to know at the moment. Now as a woman with brown skin who already got to fight for self and children that don't understand that sometimes it is the parent who wanted the opposite sex the they got at birth and will stop at nothing to treat those kids cause the parent is so stuck on you are a boy not a girl even wants to get rights to have thier kids sex change before they know who they are yes it a choice and should be that kids choice even they are old enough. Why do some meaning a smaller group of people get to enjoy the life they want. All this people are doing is living out the illusions of what is going on in the body all day and make it real. Each and every living cell had a job to do and it is chaotic but has will find its way to meet other cells so that they follow the order in which they should go.

Sorry, hardly honest
She was in deep denial, her interviews were less than flattering.
She may have once believed her lyrics because she sang them with such conviction
Sadly she is missed, RIP
Scheena Farmer
No one is pushing anything. The media is nosey. They have an agenda and their goal is to find a juicy story at any cost. Whitney was the perfect victim, but when she was sober she handled the media flawlessly. It is only when her addictions got worse that the media got the better of her. When her thought processes weren’t as sharp, she should have ceased all interviews. During that time she was in no condition to deal with the media. They were relentless. Her unflattering interviews made things worse and I’m sure as a result she spiralled into deeper drug use.
So very sad how they played her.
She was the greatest ever, but her legacy was overshadowed by chaotic behaviours and constant denials.
It was never under control
All the good ones/legends, iconic voices have rumors about their sexuality.
septube26 not Mariah Carey.
Drake Reid and that perhaps is because Mariah is biracial and white passing. She was treated differently than the black artists because she doesn’t look black
That is true. Freddie, mj, prince, and Luther have all had their sexuality questioned as well
Drake Reid
Their was rumors of her and da brat before da brat went to jail
@@onedollarbleach6891 and all those rumors turned out to be true, as they say there is truth to every rumor. We are 2019 and it turns out Whitney Houston was Bisexual this whole time 🤧
This wig! 😩😩😩😩
Stawpet!🤣
Girrrrl.
I hope this was its first and last performance.
It tried 😩
Robyn Crawford book comes out 11/13/19. She confirmed her and Whitney were lovers.
@Raymond Brown Agreed
@Raymond Brown Right, if they were such good friends, why would she bring this out now and disrespect Whitney's mom. Like Bobbi Christina said, everybody is fake".
@@user-xr8co4oi8h I still believe it. The rumours have been too persistent and others have confirmed it plus her own mother didn't deny it, so.
@@jaywest3734 Hi Jay, but Whitney always said her sex life was nobody's business
@@user-xr8co4oi8h The only reason I'm interested is because I think she would have had a better life if she has been with Robyn instead of Bobby. She felt compelled to be with Bobby because of the reaction she was getting for not being black enough.
I find it sooooooo interesting that non famous women can try lesbian sex and stop yet retain their heterosexual label BUT Whitney gets labeled this the WHOLE of her life’s existence. Even Robyn herself admitted that they hadn’t been sexual since they were both teens on Wendy Williams. So if an experimental period makes Whitney a lesbian then THERE ARE MILLIONS MORE IN THE WORLD!
@Ms Love Whitney also said she didn’t want to go to hell for being gay
@Ms Love Robyn book and Robyn said it on the red table talk
She gave another of indirect answers
You can say anything you want about a dead person. I think Whitney wanted to keep her business private and if these hangers on respected her they would as well. Obviously none of them cared enough about her to intervene so they should just enjoy the money they got off her and shut up.
Exactly..Everybody around her was fake and a user..I mean who writes books about their dead friends personal business? People are NOT loyal.Smfh.
@@Machelle3200 So many people are writing books or selling stories about dead celebrities. You can literally say anything you want about a dead person. Nobody is alive to defend themselves so nobody can call you out for lying. Enough people were using people like Whitney, Michael and Prince when they were alive. Now that they are dead then let them rest in peace.
@@davidmason4037 Exactly!!
David Mason
Sorry I don’t agree
@@ralex3697 sorry I don't care.
NIPPPPPPYYYYYYYYYYYY!😩🤧🥰❤️
She sounds like the female version of Michael Jackson when she speaks
Aretha was her GodMother, not just a friend.
John didn't know she could sing? Seems to me he wasn't around as much as they made it seem
he wasn’t it’s said in books that we wasn’t around as much especially wen him and cissy was divorced
I always hated her hair stylist... All of them.. I never liked her hair not ever but she is very talented
The media got her fucked up 😂😂😂
Whitney says aks?
You cannot find this LP anywhere. They are getting pricey.
1:58-2:06 yeah.👏👏👏
U were with Robyn....That was your girl...
Crazy to hear how she was under such pressure to deny being gay, being specifically given a chance to deny those rumors. I respect her for not denying it, as a gay woman myself.
Bi.
@@perypetierowerzystkizpozna585 Right, I did not mean to erase bysexuality at all, sorry if it came across like that! I sometimes use gay as a stand in for other, unspesified lgbt identities and it might be a good idea for me to reconsider that practice.
@@Zasi24 Yep. But there is a majority believing that she was 100% heterosexual. ;/
She’s straight up denied them before. In 1987 the late 90’s, and the early 2000’s
She denied it, probably in other interviews. She was always asked about Robin. She said they were friends from HS. But she had to keep it in the closet because it would’ve messed up her clean cut image. She was very popular in the Bible Belt.
0:35 9 Consecutive #1 I thought she only had 7 I know that’s still a record but Omg 9
Wasn't it her 3rd tour at least? They said 2nd.
a uma luz no fim do túnel. é o caminho certo que ela ja alcancou a paz interior. e se encontrou numa dimensao com Deus .a certeza de que Jesus esta cuidando dessa menina e sua filhinha. uma estrela que sempre brilhara
Happy for Whitney she did not practice a “lesbian” lifestyle praying for everyone struggling in this world. She’s free as a believer, Christ heard her cry-Matthew 6:33. R.I.P Nippy
Why doesn't he hear everyone cry no one can answer that
@@dontedukes6201 because you gotta have faith and believe you gotta trust him with your all and let God be God.
@@derrickbelmar if you knew me you know the faith I have it so easy for people just to say that when there not walking in your shoes thanks
@@dontedukes6201 no I don't walk in your shoes I'm sorry if it may seem like I came off a little rude I may not know your story but I'm willing to read it if you tell me. But I know God for myself and he is so real I remember one time my sister was having brain surgery and she had a stroke and the doctor thought she wasn't going to walk or talk again so the told me and my auntie this and we was crying so I dried my tears up and I started saying and confusing Jesus name over my sister you know the next day my sister was up and talking and walking and the doctor's couldn't believe it or how about the time we find out my mom had cancer and doctors thought she was gone die that night I said a prayer and God made a way my mom last 2 months later God is Good yes you need faith but think of him as your Greatest friend you can talk to him about anything and he listens and he will provide all your needs trust him I'm telling you don't give up on him.
@@derrickbelmar very well said 😁
Her mother treated her into 😢😢
It was so sexist because she wasn’t married to accuse her of being a lesbian. (It’s really in fashion at present to make everyone gay and a lot of pressure to especially make the dead gay) but I remember her commenting on how ridiculous it was that she was single at 27 and people were accusing her of being a lesbian. So slimy of the press. And now, the people.
she did have nine number one hits, however She had only seven consecutive number one hits,
you see, interview new reports talking about her sexuality must of been sooo annoying and so exhausting, 6-years into your career and one off the biggest topics is sexuality, I would of been so overwhelmed that that is one of the things people keep saying. to a certain point when your having a bad day it can get to you.
she said she 's not lesbian!!! why people don't believe her? that makes me very sad......
She also said she was drug free and that wasn't true. I think she may have been bisexual-they never asked her that
kaerligheden bobby brown said in his autobiography that whitney likes women too, she had many affairs. Whitney is at least bisexual. 99% of hollywood celebrities have slept with same sex.
Was Robyn the only woman she slept with?
Leslie Boozer There was rumours Whitney had an affair with that blonde woman in the movie Top Gun. Again its a rumour.
OK. I was beginning to wonder if Robyn was the only one.
So people decide It to believe that Robyn tells the truth and Whitney lied!!!
It’s Artista Records
Aaaand....she was bi :)
Yes indeed! ☺
LOL did they say 9 Grammys what kinda research were these folks doing
so she was bi or not?
No. Whitney denied it. So she is not
I Love Whitney and I do believe she's the Best simger I've ever heard but it still makes me wonder why she lived her relationship with Bobby Brown in the public eye 🤔? She did want to get rid of the lesbian image but still, she knew what would be the consequences, like she clearly said in this 1991 interview and she did the total opposite. Doesn't make any sense at all...
Was that Bill O’reilly? 😂
Maybe his dad should have attended church with the family, then he would have known her daughter could sing.
She look like Halle berry
eek. bill o'reilly! whitney was every woman, indeed.
