[Rest In Peace] Bobbi Kristina Brown Dead at 22!!!!


It has been confirmed by the family of Bobbi Kristina Brown that she has indeed passed away! The daughter of the late great Whitney Houston never recovered after being found unresponsive after an incident that took place at her home back in January. Still many questions surrounding how she got in such a predicament that so eerily reminds us of how her own mother died, but fingers have been pointed heavily in the direction of her boyfriend or fiance whatever he is, Nick Gordon.

E! Online reports:
"Bobbi Kristina Brown passed away Sunday, July 26 2015, surrounded by her family. She is finally at peace in the arms of God," the Houston family said in a statement to E! News. "We want to again thank everyone for their tremendous amount of love and support during these last few months."
The only child of Bobby Brown and the late Whitney Houston was found unconscious in a bathtub at her home on the morning of Jan. 31 and had been in a comatose state ever since.
On June 24, Pat Houston released the following statement to E! News shedding a somber light on her niece's condition:
"Despite the great medical care at numerous facilities, Bobbi Kristina Brown's condition has continued to deteriorate. As of today, she has been moved into hospice care. We thank everyone for their support and prayers. She is in God's hands now."
The 22-year-old's passing comes a little more than three years after her mother's death. The legendary singer drowned in the bathtub in her suite at the Beverly Hilton hotel the day before the 2012 Grammys.
Tragically, Bobbi Kristina was discovered face down in the filled tub by a friend of her longtime boyfriend, Nick Gordon; Gordon is said to have immediately rushed to the room and tried to revive her with CPR while his friend called 911.
On July 15, multiple outlets reported that Gordon had been served with a $10 million lawsuit filed by Bobbi Kristina's state-appointed conservator as he left a Starbucks in Longwood, Fla.
Bobby Brown released a statement about his daughter's death via Us Weekly:
"Krissy was and is an angel. I am completely numb at this time. My family must find a way to live with her in spirit and honor her memory. Our loss is unimaginable."
That's just sad. The whole Houston legacy gone just like that. Such a tragic and senseless loss. My prayers go out to her and her family. May she rest in peace!



Bobbi Kristina Update: She's Awake


Allegedly, according to Bobby Brown, at one of his recent concerts, he revealed that his daughter Bobbi Kristina is awake and no longer on life support.

According to E! Online:
Now this is some amazing news.
After roughly three months of being in a coma, Bobbi Kristina Brown is awake and no longer on life support.
Her aunt Tina Brown took to Facebook to share the extremely happy news, writing, "So many messages,sorry can't answer them all right now but I will get to them later..just allow me this time with my family,,yes,she woke up and is no longer on life support!!!!!:):)God is good!!thanks for your prayers,,still a process,but she is going to be ok:):):):)."
The initial question about Bobbi's status comes after father Bobby Brown made the shocking statement that she is "awake" during his concert in Texas.

I'm not sure how true this is. I've already heard conflicting stories. Nevertheless, please continue to keep Bobbi Kristina in your prayers.

Finally a Bobbi Kristina update for you all. She's been taken out of the medically induced coma she's in, however she remains on life support. Bobby Brown is not giving up the fight and I totally respect that!

"There will be a sign of hope, and then nothing," says a family source. "Every day, we wonder if this will be the day that we get good news."

Doctors hope to find some answers soon. Their latest medical decision: to wean Bobbi Kristina off the medication that keeps her in the coma. "We're all hoping and praying that this will give us some answers," says the family source, who adds that Brown's condition remains "severe."

In Memory of [The Voice] Whitney Houston


Born on August 9, 1963, in Newark, New Jersey, Whitney Houston released her debut album at age 22 and scored three No. 1 singles. Whitney (1987) delivered four more No. 1s and earned Houston her first Grammy, with later albums including I'm Your Baby Tonight (1990) and My Love Is Your Love (1998) as well as soundtracks to The Bodyguard (1992) and Waiting to Exhale (1995). With her marriage to singer Bobby Brown in 1992 and ensuing drug use, Houston's career got off track. She eventually made a comeback with 2009's I Look to You and also co-starred in the the film remake Sparkle. Houston died from accidental drowning in a hotel on February 11, 2012.

It was 3 years ago today that we lost a legend, our beloved Whitney Houston! Definitely one of a kind. This lady was everything!!! As a tribute, please check out some of her classic tracks as well as some vintage photos of the fallen star! May she rest in peace!

Bobbi Kristina Update: Allegedly to be taken off Life Support Tomorrow on Anniversary of Whitney's Death!! [Update]Houston Family says this is FALSE Information!!!


This story just keeps getting creepier and creepier! So now, it's being reported that Bobbi Kristina will be taken off life support tomorrow. Yes, you read correctly, on the very same day that her mother died 3 years ago. #deeeeeeeeep

TMZ Reports:
Bobbi Kristina will be taken off life support tomorrow ... on the 3rd anniversary of Whitney Houston's death ... TMZ has learned.
Brown family sources tell us Bobby has finally made the decision, realizing there is no hope for his 21-year-old daughter to recover.
A source connected with Houston's family told TMZ on Sunday ... Cissy Houston, Whitney's mom, wanted life support pulled on the anniversary of her daughter's death to "bond mother and daughter for eternity." We have not confirmed this, but the NY Post ran the story this AM.
Members of the Brown family are extremely emotional, sobbing over the decision but realizing it's the right thing to do.
TMZ broke the story ... police have launched a criminal investigation because Bobbi Kristina had injuries on her body when she was rushed to the hospital and we're told the target of the investigation is her boyfriend, Nick Gordon.

Now you know they keep changing the story every 5 mins, but if this in fact true that's just crazy. I mean I get it but still crazy to me that all this has played out this way. Meanwhile Nick Gordon is still being investigated in suspected foul play and I will keep you updated on it all when I get more details.

UPDATE:

It's being reported that this rumor is also, FALSE! I told y'all this keeps changing every 5 mins. #weshallsee

Us Weekly Reports:

Wrong. Despite rumors, Bobbi Kristina Brown will not be taken off life support on the third anniversary of her mother Whitney Houston's death, a Houston family source tells Us Weekly.


And so it continues!!! #PrayforBK





Bobbi Kristina Update: Family Gathering to Say Goodbye to Bobbi Kristina Brown? #FALSE says Bobby Brown




UPDATE via AJC:

Amid reports they may have been preparing to say goodbye, her father Bobby Brown released a statement: “If we issued a statement every time the media published a false report regarding this matter, that’s all we would be doing 24 hours a day. This is false, just as is the vast majority of the other reporting that is currently taking place.”

There you have it folks....Bobby Brown is telling everybody just need to chill!!! #standby

According to People Magazine, family members are gathering by Bobbi Kristina's bedside to say Goodbye!

People Reports:
Bobbi Kristina Brown remains on life support after being found unconscious in a bathtub – were drugs involved? Subscribe now to get instant access to the troubling new details.
It wasn't the news that Bobbi Kristina Brown's family wanted to hear.
On Wednesday, four days after the 21-year-old was found unresponsive in her home, a doctor told her family that nothing more could be done. "Everyone is coming to the hospital to say goodbye," says a family member.
The news was especially devastating to her father, Bobby Brown. "Bobby has been crying nonstop since yesterday," says the source. "We are grieving."
A second family member went by the hospital overnight to say goodbye – and admits that the devastating news is hard to believe.
"If you saw her, you'd think she was just sleeping," says the source. 
Wow such a tragedy!!! If that report is true! People is the only source I've seen this information on) So sad to see the whole Whitney Houston legacy end like that with Bobbi Kristina. Of course I'll keep you posted! You can read the full article via People!

Hmmm: Rosie Perez Weighs in on Bobbi Kristina and How the Whitney Movie [Must Have Killed] Her!


I can't sit here and say that Rosie Perez didn't say exactly what I've been thinking in reference to Bobbi Kristina possibly watching the "Whitney" movie, produced by Angela Bassett for the Lifetime channel. (I even said that on my post)Today on "The View" Rosie and her co hosts discussed what's going on with Bobbi Kristina.

Rosie said...
"No disrespect to Angela Basset (because I love Angela Basset), but an unauthorized biography of her mom...It must've killed her!" 

Man I can't get that movie out of my mind and the fact that it was shown weeks before Bobbi was found in a bathtub unconscious like her mother? Freakin eerie!!!

Update on Bobbi Kristina:

Police confirmed, after a more thorough search of her Roswell home they did find drugs at the scene. They also arrested a man that's been called a drug dealer at the home during their search.

TMZ Reports:

Police found drugs in Bobbi Kristina's house in the wake of her near drowning ... this according to her family.
We've confirmed ... over the weekend cops went back a second time to search the house. The first time they went they found nothing, but we're told they went a second time and seized several items.
Cops will not confirm they found drugs, but family sources tell TMZ authorities told the family that is indeed what was found.
Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... they believed from the beginning Bobbi Kristina ended up face down in a bathtub as a result of drugs.
As for why cops didn't find anything during the first search ... we're told they were only looking for items that were "out in the open." Law enforcement tells us the second search was more thorough.
Other than that, I've also heard that she's been moved to another hospital at her family's request. Her alleged husband (The family is claiming that the two are NOT legally married) has also been banned from visitation due to a scuffle he got into with security at her bedside. Just a lot going on right now. There are also reports floating around that Bobbi Kristina's condition has improved some. That she's opened and closed her eyes.

Entertainment Tonight Reports:
ET has learned that Bobbi Kristina Brown has been moved to Emory University Hospital after being rushed to North Fulton Hospital over the weekend. ET's Nischelle Turner was on the ground in Georgia gathering new details on Bobbi Kristina's hospitalization.
According to a source, Brown, who had reportedly been placed in a medically induced coma, opened and closed her eyes, which can be taken as a big stride forward.
Dr. Rachael Ross of "The Doctors"told us what this could mean for Brown.
"My take from this is that Bobbi Kristina has hit a plateau that typically the average person doesn't pull out of, but under the care of EU and physicians there the hopes are that they can work a miracle," Dr. Ross said.

Well that debunks that whole 2nd search theory!!

Will keep you posted. In the meantime please continue to keep her in your prayers.

Update: Bobbi Kristina’s Family to Make ‘Difficult Decision to Take Her Off Life Support’!


Wow. So this is really serious! God Bless her and her family right now. Coming up on the anniversary of her mother, Whitney Houston's death 3 years ago, and now this. I must admit I keep thinking of the Lifetime movie that just premiered a few weeks ago and  wonder if she saw it and how it made her feel. I pray it had nothing to do with her situation.
WSB-TV, Channel 2 Action news here in Atlanta, has been following Bobbi Kristina and her condition very closely. They are reporting that an inside source says the family will have to make a decision within the next few days on whether or not to keep Bobbi Kristina on life support. The family had already been told to "prepare for the worst" after it had been reported that her brain activity had "significantly diminished".
Such sad sad news. Please continue to pray for Bobbi Kristina and her family!!!

Please watch the full video below.



Update:
Alleged "Drug Dealer" was on the premises of Bobbi Kristina's home!

Lifetime Presents: Whitney


The highly anticipated biopic "Whitney", directed by Angela Bassett, premiered on Lifetime over the weekend.
First of all let me just say that Deborah Cox slayeddddddd the vocals!!!She did not disappoint at all!
Unlike that crap of  an Aaliyah movie, it was refreshing to hear Whitney's original music!!! Let's be real the music is almost the most important element to any biopic about a musical artist aside from the artist. Deborah Cox nailed it. ♫ I'm Your Baby Tonight! #yessss I had to rewind that!!! 

The casting was much better too. Yaya did ok. I wasn't mad at her at all. For some reason something, about the guy playing Bobby Brown, was off too me. I don't know what it was but umm yeah lol 
Anyway another thing I noticed is it kind of felt like the movie was more about Bobby and Whitney was his costar. Not really sure what that was about but again the movie was much better [in MY opinion] than that trainwreck Aaliyah movie. What did you think?


You can check out the movie in its entirety below.

Bonus- Bobby Brown: Remembering Whitney

Exclusive: Lifetime Presents the New Trailer for Whitney

Whitney airs Jan 17th at 8/7C on Lifetime.
In the meantime please check out the trailer via BuzzFeed.

Lifetime Presents: 2nd Chance- Don't Mess this one up Starring Whitney Houston


After bombing the whole entire Aaliyah movie, the Lifetime channel has some making up to do. Once again after a family of another fallen star stood strongly against the production of a biopic movie, Lifetime took matters in its own hands and did it anyway.
The biopic,starring America's Next Top Model contestant, Yaya DaCosta, simply titled "Whitney" will premiere January 17, 2015 at 8/7c!!!

Lifetime's Synopsis of "Whitney":
Golden Globe® Award winner and Academy Award® nominee Angela Bassett makes her directorial debut with the Lifetime Original Movie "Whitney," featuring Yaya DaCosta (Lee Daniels’ "The Butler") in the lead role with Arlen Escarpeta ("Final Destination 5") alongside her as Bobby Brown. 
"Whitney" chronicles the headline-making relationship between the iconic singer, actress, producer and model Whitney Houston and singer and songwriter Bobby Brown from the time they first met at the very height of their celebrity to their courtship and tumultuous marriage. Throughout it all, difficulties followed the superstar couple while they dealt with the overwhelming rewards and consequences of the fame and fortune created by Houston’s meteoric rise that would soon overshadow them both.
Houston’s vocal performances in the film are sung by Grammy®-nominated and multiplatinum-selling entertainer Deborah Cox. The music featured in the film includes Houston’s hits “The Greatest Love of All,” “I’m Your Baby Tonight,” “I’m Every Woman” and “I Will Always Love You” as well as Brown’s “Every Little Step.”
Produced by The Sanitsky Company, "Whitney" is executive produced by Larry Sanitsky ("Betty & Coretta"). Shem Bitterman ("Betty & Coretta") wrote the script.
Following the movie’s premiere, Lifetime will air the hour-long documentary "Beyond the Headlines: Whitney Houston" at 10/9c, providing an in-depth look at the life and death of Houston. Interviews with friends – including longtime friend Darlene Love – colleagues and industry insiders will offer personal reflections and insight into the life and career of this American songstress and the tragic circumstances of her downfall. "Beyond the Headlines: Whitney Houston" is produced by Peacock Productions.
Ummm so yeah, good luck with that! After that Aaliyah debacle I'm a little worried. Why they keep going against these people's families when they say NO to these productions is beyond me. #fixitjeezus Hopefully they will win us over this time! If not I know instgram and twitter will get them together!!! LOL
