The recent arrest of husband Bobby Brown is nothing new in the troubled & run ins with the law filled life of Whitney. There have been all kinds of stories for years about her and it wasn't until the drug rumors began that people started to wonder if she wasn't who she appeared to be. All signs point to the fact that she is an accident waiting to happen. Lets take a brief look into her sad and quite tragic life... In other words, here is her rap sheet.
1) Whitney's mother Cissy, who claims to be a good Christian, would beat Whitney with switches for not wearing dresses as a child. That's certainly worth hitting your child over, huh ?
2) Cissy would also force Whitney to fight other girls who didn't like her. She didn't simply encourage her to stand up for herself. She told Whitney that if she didn't fight these girls that she (Cissy) would beat her.
3) Both of Whitney's brothers, Gary and Michael, areapparently drug addicts. At least one has been in rehab. And one of them was evidently pulled over the same night of Bobby's "seizure" when police found drugs in his car.
4) In the early 90's, Whitney and one of her brothers got into a fight with 2 men at a hotel. Whitney allegedly punched one of the men. And in their statement to the police, the men claim that during the fight Whitney told them to back off or she would "have them killed".
5) A former bodyguard of Whitney's wrote a book called "Good Girl, Bad Girl" in which he claims that Whitney's father has gangster ties and that he tried to have Whitney's best friend / personal assistant Robyn Crawford beaten up.
6) While promoting the TV movie Cinderella, Whitney was booked on The Rosie O'Donnell Show and canceled mere minutes before airtime, claiming "illness". The hour had to be filled with the supporting cast from the film, while Rosie made a HUGE deal out of the fact that Whitney was not there and about her "illness". Apparently Rosie and
her staff knew the real story. When Rosie was preparing to go off the air she said in an interview that she thinks Whitney is a drug addict.
7) Whitney has had at least 3 miscarriages since her relationship with Bobby began. Perhaps this is unrelated to her drug use. Perhaps not.
9) In a TV interview singer Natalie Cole said she thought that Whitney "had a problem" and needed help. No direct mention of drugs was made.
10) On an awards show singer Toni Braxton said during an acceptance speech "Whitney, I'm praying for you".
11) These stories now seem to go hand in hand with the more recent stories about her: Her crack-whore appearance at the Michael Jackson concert (she canceled her second appearance, see pic above), her airport pot party, Bobby's "seizure" and multiple arrests on drug and alcohol charges, her bizarre ramblings during televised concerts, her inability to complete her latest album, the charge that she has not paid her father's company for it's services and the accusation that her father's partner filed charges against them for threatening him. |
