Whitney, in my heart and mind, is in the same class and sophisticated circles of ladies such as Phylicia Rashad and Coretta Scott King. That may seem random, but I always felt that for years :)
She was beautiful pregnant and regardless of what people think, that woman loved Bobby Brown and we cant blame her for that. We have all been in love with someone that wasn't right for us at one point in time.
What I believe for me I don’t like how she was treated a very humbled person she said herself she made some wrong turns on her own she tried I feel for her I can’t stop watching videos , the interviews America is not kind to blacks they want them to fail , they use them but God knew best he could have allowed her to live no devil in hell could have stopped him but he called her home Rest In Peace my dear people around that night did not treat her right as for her conniving sister in- law her time coming and all who used her for personal gain.
I've never understood the stupid fake criticism from the media about Whitney Houston losing her black base in the late 80s or "sounding too white". The entire duration of the height of her success (1985 - 1994, as well as throughout the late 90s), her records pretty much always were well received on black radio and did extremely well on the R&B Charts. There's no other way to measure any sort of "weakness" in Houston's black base than that! The media tried so hard at the time to find SOME reason to halt Whitney's success.
Black radio and media made those criticisms. I was alive then. She also was booed at the Soul Train Music awards. She would admit in multiple later interviews that it really hurt her. She had so much in common with Lena Horne in that way. They both struggled to get Black people to love them and accept them.
Well that’s because her 2nd did make a crazy turn from the soul of “Saving All My Love For You to the straight up pop feel of “I Wanna Dance With Somebody.”
@@TotalTennisGeek I agree, I wasn't a Whitney fan back in the day but she was big enough for a non-fan to know about the backlash she received. If I'm correct she made I'm Your Baby Tonight to appease her people.
@@ikexbankai Whitney was not the only artist record companies did that too; The Temptations was sent on tour with The Supremes after making crossover albums to appeal to a broader audience.
@@ikexbankai 🙄 So boo her? Humiliate her? Make jokes about how some Black people thought she had no rhythm? Make fun of her on Black radio? Black people have a fucked up sense of justice for something so small in the grand scheme of what she accomplished, FOR THE COMMUNITY. You've actually just supported my point.
Most people are naive/turn a blind eye when they love someone... With Whitney, I think it was more of a blind eye situation, she wasn’t dumb. She was protective of those she loved.
Girl you shoulda ran for the hills and divorced him two years later. I think in addition, she felt like time wasn't on her side.She mentioned on The Arsenio Hall show that she was pushing 30 and that was one of her reasons why she was wanting to get married. But think about Bobby- he was only 23 and to me that's really young for a man to want to settle down so it was like not a shock that he wasn't faithful, especially with his romantic track record. The worst thing was that he was abusive physically towards her- hitting her, spitting on her doing weird stuff like spray painting evil eyes on the wall, etc. She did not have to put up with that... She chose to. She deserved so much more.
Whitney was wrong but I love her. Part of Bobby Brown marrying her was for an image, Whitney was THE hugest star in the world at this point and he thought if he gets married to someone as big as Whitney he can start appeasing and making money off people from all demographics. Whitney did love him though, she never needed him to make her more popular or more loved from black audiences.
Also, the reality is, she saw something in him that they both connected to and that was drugs. Their love centered around drugs, co-dependency. Even her greatest fans should be able to admit that.
When they say nasty, they don't mean being lesbian is nasty, they meant the rumors were nasty because they were constantly talking about it, when people say things about you that are not true, any rumor becomes nasty.
Bobby brown was very young and he was clearly not ready for marriage at 23, he had many patterns of fathering children and not being committed, he was truly her biggest mistake and she could have been loved so much better by a whole man. GOD REST HER SOUL, the best vocalist of all time. ❤
@@erinsandberg4064 Naah! She's nothing more than an internet troll writing hateful/disrespectfull comments at Whitney-video's! A nobody who's nothing better to do with her life!

Love is NOT toxic...co dependency, one sided relationship..
Whitney looked so beautiful pregnant. I miss her so much.
She was so pretty, pregnant. Man, I'm going to miss her.
Pregancy really agreed with Whitney she looked just to cute & adorable! I miss her so much. R.I.P. Song Bird!
Watching this makes me want to cry. May our heavenly father bless her soul and her family. RIP Whitney.
I always get emotional when i watch videos of her i think im over obsessed with her voice
U Still Get Emotional 😭 Even More Now When U Continue Watching Nippy’s Video’s On UA-cam Especially In The 90’s

"That's it. That's it for me. I'm only taking that walk one time." That statement said more than most of us realized back then. Tough to hear now.
Darius Bennett I’ll be the outlier and say, “I think I’ll take that walk once, if I ever do”. ❤️

Those babies will do that to you. She looked beautiful filled out pregnant.
Beautiful Miss Whitney!😍❤😍❤😍❤..Whitney looks great pregnant!..The voice of voices!!..A great talent!❤❤❤😍
The marriage to bobby was a huge mistake.
Sure was he was the wrong one
@mariej.richard5114 I adore Whitney but it takes two to tango. 💯
Bobbie Brown is SO lucky
She was so naive about Bobby.
Super naive
She loved Bobby and anybody can see that

Exactly.
@@karykares bobby has a baby w somebody else while they were dating. That's not the one u marry dude 🙄.

@IsThatRc I miss her too. I really hate she's gone. She had such a sweet spirit.
Whitney was beautiful!!;)
Whitney was so thin in the 80s and so thin RIGHT AFTER she gave birth that it's almost bizarre to see her pregnant and this "big".
Young and in denial
He was not a good partner for Whitney
In her reality show,they were coming out of the elevator,and she got him jealous about Kevin Costner. You could see him grumbling. Ehehehe.
OMG she looked younger when pregnant
It was his sex appeal that got her ..bobby had the fame and awards pretty much first ...and i think she knew that
I notice how he got mad a little kiss that Whitney did in the Bodyguard, but it was ok for him to be all over that girl in that music video. ..smh
I have never seen anyone more beautiful pregnant than my baby Nip. Absolutely gorgeous 😍

I agree with you!

He shouldn't have been doing those sexual things on stage or in videos. That is supposed to be special between a husband and a wife.
Her face kinda reminded me of left eye still beautiful:)
"Nasty rumours about being a lesbian". Wow! Those were some nasty and hard times.
When they say nasty, they don't mean being lesbian is nasty, they meant the rumors were nasty because they were constantly talking about it, when people say things about you that are not true, any rumor becomes nasty.
@@andrese9805 they were true
If he creeping he’ll I would have too if I was fine like Whitney TLC SAID IT BEST F THAT
@GingerSpice414 Right! I feel as if I lost my favorite aunt or something. *sigh*
whats the name of the show????
Whitney LOVED Hard, Millions of Women do!!
I Wish she Would’ve let the Lord Deliver her from Drugs. Only HE Could’ve Cleaned her up.
Wow..i wish i looked that beautiful pregnant..she is incredibly beautiful..
I'm so happy she had a real family
Bobby brown was very young and he was clearly not ready for marriage at 23, he had many patterns of fathering children and not being committed, he was truly
her biggest mistake and she could have been loved so much better by a whole man. GOD REST HER SOUL, the best vocalist of all time. ❤
When she love she love
I acknowledge you Nippy, SCR•W everybody
You got him-How did that work out for you?
you sound like a real happy and fulfilled person, miss "boozer"
@@erinsandberg4064 Naah! She's nothing more than an internet troll writing hateful/disrespectfull comments at Whitney-video's! A nobody who's nothing better to do with her life!
She got divorced like many who didn’t marry a “bad boy”. It’s called life, most ppl die alone anyways.
over explaining. they already had issues. she stayed on that question too much. she got him while he had a wife and kid. got what she got
Here she is trying to be tough and secure. Really a mess
She's was a strong woman
You sound so fuckin dumb..
Can you just shut the fuck up boozer loozer whatever like yo life perfect 😏
