Gosh, if you're gonna be using sex toys, at least have a clean woo woo! The roni not so tender anymore....  | |

Wowwww!!! That's deep. If everything in this story is true, Whitney is in need of some serious help. Only God can bring her back from that kind of addiction. | |

That's no lie. I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that | |

I agree.Fuck Whitney Houston! 
I used to be a really big fan but I'm tired of watching her fuck up her life and career.She had so much potential but she seems determined to throw it all away.It's pathetic and very sad.Like MJ,she has become a tragic media joke,but it's not funny anymore.I keep waiting and hoping that she will finally wake up and get her shit together,but it never happens.Her attitude seems to be "Yeah,I'm a fuck-up,and that's okay with me".So so sad. | |

I believe it, because I know a few crack heads and that's exactly how they look/live. All her money is doing is keeping her more high than the average dope head.
You can't blame Bobby Brown though. Just because your man is involved in some low down crap, doesn't mean you have to join him. I used to know this girl, who was running her mouth to me about her boyfriend not doing right and was always smoking crack. I told her that I heard that she was doing it too (and they had four little kids at the time), and she said, "well when your boyfriend is trying something out, you want to do it too just to be with him, you know?" Isn't that ignorant? Anyway, I heard some radio station talking about this interview yesterday, and they also said that Whitney wears adult diapers a lot so she can just sit around and pee herself. If she don't do something, she's not going to make it. | |

need I say more. What is happening to these people who were once so talented and beautiful..?I think it shows that she's just a weak and naïve person who needs someone to get her out of that mess. They always say that you can't help an addict until she/he really realizes that she/he needs help... Whitney, here some help on the way:  | |

Isn't that ignorant? I don't blame Bobby Brown either. She should have been a strong enough person to either give him an ultimatum of either getting clean or leaving him. Instead, she joins him. I'm not surprised though. She has never been a strong person with a mind of her own from day one. I saw a documentary on her life and the record company and producers told her "Whitney, tone it down. It's too black. You want a huge crossover pop hit instead of just an R&B hit don't you". She listened to them and got that pop success. Then when she got booed at the "Soul Train" awards by people that felt she was "too white", she didn't even have the guts to stand up and take the criticism for compromising in the first place. Instead, she gets with Bobby Brown. He's doing drugs and, once again, little miss goodie two shoes can't be her own person, she has to join him. Yeah, she's gotten an arrogant attitude lately but it's not her, it's the drugs. She should have had that arrogance all along and stood up for herself from the very beginning. Maybe she would have had some good strong music instead of the weak sugary pop/adult contemporary junk she put out. She also would have been strong enough to take no shit off no man either. I'm not surprised at all. It's typical weak Shitney. Andy is a four letter word. | |

I'm the most tactless person I know and this is way beyond being funny. Mocking someone on a path to a tragic death is far from funny in my opinion. Second, who says Bobby is the reason she's addicted. Someone earl;ier mentioned living next to her manager and hearing that she was addicted to coke in 87. Whether or not taht's true who says it couldn't be. It's as valid as the generic bull shit of blaming her state on her husband. | |

need I say more. What is happening to these people who were once so talented and beautiful..?How sad is "it" when you do this to yourself? It is sad, because if you know any addicts, none of them really like it. They usually hate themselves and feel miserable. Of course, they know what they are doing when they first start doing it, but they really can't control what the drug does to their body. Their body starts functioning as if it really does need it to survive (when in reality, it's killing them). I feel embarrassed to says this, but since no one here really knows me anyway...my husband of 15 years is addicted to cocaine/crack. He's a "functioning" addict, meaning that he keeps his job and goes to it every day. He gives me all the money each week that I ask for to pay bills and stuff, we have a nice house and we both have a car. But whatever money is left over, he usually dopes it up. Last year he was worse and he had his $30,000 truck repossesed. Our house went into foreclosure and we had to sell it (thank God, we got this one). We've had utilities shut off, and I've had to be on food stamps twice. I stayed with him because, maybe some of you had read elsewhere that I've had some major health problems the last few years. Anyway, he hates that he does that stuff, and when he has binges (sometimes spending his whole paycheck), he says that he doesn't know why he does it. And he is always "done with that stuff." I hear it all the time. Of course, it's completely frustrating and maddening. You wonder why someone would want to spend all their money on that crap. Why would you want to cause major problems in your marriage? Because they are addicted, and most addicts need major help to quit. And unless God totally delivers you, it will always be a weakness for you. You would have to quit your friends that do it, quit going places that are even near drug houses, all that. | |

I've never like little miss goodie two shoes from day one so why should the present day be any different? If she was on drugs before she got with her husband, I'm sure she didn't decide to try them on her own. Somebody probably got her to try them and typical little weak Shitney didn't have a mind enough of her own to tell them "no". All I'm saying is I'm not surprised at all.

Crack is the bad stuff. I just stick to stuff I can snort and that lasts a long time. I'm definitely ain't taking no crap that wears off quick like crack. Also I have the stereotype of it being a "street persons" drug so that definitely kept me off crack. But really, responsible coke use is no different than alcohol or nicotine. | |

I understand your comments and the addiction itself, but what I don't understand is why take this stuff in the 1st place? I really don't get that. This stuff in known to DESTROY lives yet so many are still trying "it" in the 1st place. I just don't understand that. I really don't. Why touch fire if you know damn well you will get burned? | |

Part of this is feeling empty inside. Feeling unhappy, desperate and alone.
Living the life of a "celebrity", especially a black, female celebrity in America is super-stressful. I won't go into any more detail, but if you know your history or know anyone in the business, you'll know what I mean. Whitney has no one to blame but herself. But it's still sad to see her on this road. It's sad to see anyone there, but for Whitney, it's especially jarring because it seems like she's another person. Prince, for all of his idiosyncracies, never fell into the Jimi, Janice, Michael, Rick, etc, etc, etc, trap of "recreational" drug use. It's never recreational. It *will* kill you. That's the nature of addiction.

Because most people try it thinking that they won't get addicted to it. That it won't happen to them. I asked someone 16 years ago when crack was really starting to get prevelant in my neighborhood what it felt like to be high on crack. I smoked weed all the time back then and had tried hash and acid. The guys says, "if you ever tried it, you would fall in love with it." By the way, he's dead now. Died at 26. | |

Just the possibility of becoming an addict is enough of a deterrent for me. I don’t want to be addicted to anything if I can help it.
If your in show business you have to be very strong and very sure of yourself to not become a victim of substance abuse. Been gone for a minute, now I'm back with the jump off | |

I think it also takes self-discipline to stay away from drugs and Whitney has never struck me as someone who is very self-disciplined. She likes to come across like she's in control and sure of herself but she's been stubborn and out of control for years. Not a good combination. Been gone for a minute, now I'm back with the jump off | |

I hate that she went so down the road, but you know what, I don't feel sympathy for her. She did this to herself. Case closed. Some of you can blame Bobby Brown for this, and yea, maybe he wasn't exactly making her stop the crack use, but I seriously doubt he put a gun to her head and made her do it.
Ultimately, we have to stop blaming people for our mistakes and accept them and deal with them. That's what Whitney needs to do. Instead, she's just letting the drugs kill her. I'll shed a tear over the loss of a great talent, but I'll be damned if I start saying "Aww poor Whitney". Then again, the tooth loss thing is just so sad. | |

Fuck this shit. Anyone who thinks they're better/stronger/smarter than ALL the muthafuckas on the planet that have been TURNED OUT by drugs is a damn fool. And her living the stressful/successful life was even more reason to keep her head on straight & not slip up. I hate that this happens to anyone but this bitch is throwing it all away voluntarily. Even when she was in a decent state of mind she DECIDED to fuck w/ drugs having no idea where it would lead - this was a decision. I feel most sorry for her daughter who's had 2 fucked up parents her entire life, that's who I feel sorry for...   I never met you, but I LOVE you & I will forever!!
