Oprah drops Houston interview bombshell

Bobby.....say it ain't so.

http://blogs.ajc.com/peac...id=thbz_hm

In a preview of next week’s interview, Oprah Winfrey revealed Thursday morning on “Good Morning America” that it was Cissy Houston, the woman who brought daughter Whitney Houston into the music business who threatened to take her out of the industry at the height of her battle with drugs.

During a live interview from the Chicago set of her talk show, Winfrey told Diane Sawyer that it was Cissy Houston who turned up at the house her daughter shared with now ex-husband Bobby Brown with a court injunction and sheriffs in tow.

In a clip from the two-part interview that will air on “Oprah” next Monday and Tuesday, Houston recalled the incident saying, “My mother had the court paper in her hand and said ‘You do this my way or not at all. We’ll go on TV and you’ll retire.’ ”

Houston also recalled what her mother told a nervous looking Bobby Brown as the sheriffs gathered around them.

According to Whitney Houston her mother told Brown: “If you move Bobby, they’re going to take you down.”

That's how an intervention has to be done...with a court order.

If only Mike's family had done it, who knows?

It depends on how long she's been doing drugs and if you've been stressed for a lot of years, it'll show on your face as it's obviously shown on Whitney.

No what I mean is she didn't look bad. She just didn't look like Whitney Houston.

Ok. You started talking about her drug use and her being stressed. My point was that she looked way, way air-brushed to the point of not even looking like herself. It wasn't a bad pic, it just didn't look like Whitney Houston. And I've seen pictures of her since she cleaned herself up and she looked a little older, hell she is, but she still looked like herself.

She looks like Dionne a bit now.

Am I missing something?

Whats with all the backlash against Oprah on this one, ya'll act like Whitney was forced to sit on that coach and speak her mind rolleyes

Get real!

Oprah wants the ratings, and Nippy wants the units to hit the roof. Fair & square.

Love is just like the faucet
It turns off and on
Sometimes when you think it's on baby
It has turned off and gone

Yeah she's been singing professionally since she was 5 when she was in the gospel group, the Drinkard Singers, then she switched to R&B as an adult when she formed the Sweet Inspirations, themselves a spinoff of the Gospelaires. Since then, she's been recording R&B, soul, pop, disco and gospel.
