Bobby claims that Janet drove him to drink heavily

Here's another Bobby quote:

Before I met Janet I would never drink hard liquor, I only drank beer. But after our break up, I started drinking hard liquor abundantly.

I took the way our relationship ended very hard. Not to say we were head over heels in love, but she was someone I had a lot of feelings for. Besides, we were young and naive. I was only about 19 or 20 years old.

Young love is no joke!

lol lol lol



if he's right....does this mean that Janet cheated on Rene? hmmm

Whitney Responds to Bobby Brown's Tell-All Book


Whitney's rep responded in a statement to PEOPLE: "Miss Houston is sad that Bobby feels he need to say such things but she choses to take the high road and will not speak badly about the father of her child even if it's to set the record straight."

After his 1992 marriage, the former Being Bobby Brown star says his dependence on narcotics spiraled out of control. "At one point in my life, I used drugs uncontrollably. I was using everything I could get my hands on, from cocaine to heroin, weed and cooked cocaine," he writes.

Brown also describes his 14-year marriage as "doomed from the very beginning." "I think we got married for all the wrong reasons," he says in the book. "Now, I realize Whitney had a different agenda than I did when we got married ... I believe her agenda was to clean up her image."

The couple, who have a 15-year-old daughter, Bobbi Kristina, split in September 2006.

One potential stress on their union? Brown's now-admitted infidelity.

"Women are always throwing themselves at you," he writes. "I'm only human, so I would make the mistake and bite the hook sometimes. I let the testosterone take over."

Brown also claims to have dated Janet Jackson and Madonna before hooking up with Houston. Chapter titles from the book include "Whitney Houston – The Untold Truth," "The Press, More Problems, and Passion for Drugs," and "The Bad Boy Of Boston ... Straight From The Hood."


That's not a denial of anything....smile Madonna and Janet...really? I assume if it wasn't true about Madonna, she'll say something and make him look like an asshole. Can any hardcore Madonna fan confirm she opened up for New Edition....and wouldn't Bobby be underage then?

BTW, Janet won't say anything either way...she's MIA and I don't expect to see her until she starts working on a new album....In all likelihood, she'll probably put on her weight and the paparazzi will catch that. It's not a good pattern, but it's pretty reliable.

I don't know why people find it hard to believe that he messed with all those pop chicks. It's just like people being shocked that Crackney was on that stuff.

Again, how old does that make him when Madonna was allegdly opening up for New Edition! Never mind....He implies it happened later. I got to hear what she has to say about that.

This guy is one luck SOAB to have bedded Janet, Madonna, and Whitney if it's true. His personality must be all that, because he has always looked pretty rough in the face...yes, I love "don't be cruel" as much as the next guy, but come on, he can barely string a coherent sentence together in an interview - I wanna know who wrote this book for him.
I'll leave it alone babe...just be me

Bobby Brown Dated Madonna

Bobby Brown has a new book to promote so he's been on a rampage name dropping and outing people.

In his new tell-all book Bobby Brown: The Truth, the Whole Truth and Nothing But..., Brown insists that he had been with "half the industry," which included Madonna.

He writes, "By the time I reached my third single on the Don't Be Cruel album, I was one of the biggest stars in the world. You know what that means. With success comes the women! A wise man once told me that. At this time, "I probably had dated half of the industry, including Madonna."

"I met Madonna early in my career. She used to open up shows for New Edition in New York at the beginning of her career, so running back into her and getting to know her better at the height of my success was like a reunion. The list goes on from the who's who to the flavor of the month."

Now that’s an odd pairing! Madonna is super health conscious while Bobby is all about being a crackhead. Whatever the case was, we're just glad it didn't work out. Bobby and Whitney were always our favorite junkie couple.


bored

What? Madonna didn’t get him to do any drugs or alcohol? He didn’t become pot-bellied slack-jaw after Madonna?

there is the Madonna curse. Only Sean Penn has escaped it but it took him a few years.
You CANNOT use the name of God, or religion, to justify acts of violence, to hurt, to hate, to discriminate- Madonna
authentic power is service- Pope Francis

Not sure I really believe this, unless he first "met" Whitney in the mid-late 80s. lol Bobby had some local..uh...business here around that time. But I won't get into all that.

giggle


Wait a minute...reading Bobby's interview, I thought Bobby had cocaine issues way back in the New Edition days, *before* he became the "King of R-n-B" and *before* Whitney even had her first album out.

Wasn't that the reason he became a solo act in the first place?

Would Bobby Brown lie? lol

Keep in mind, we're talking about a different time frame here, when New Edition was creme of the crop insofar as boy groups were concerned. It was a modern predacessor to the boy groups we saw in the 90's such as Boys to Men, Back Street Boys, and N'sync. When I was a teenager I remember VERY well attending New Edition shows and watching mass hysteria ensue because they were THAT HUGE in the r&b market...usually swarms of girls publically lost it over Ralph Tresvant,and then Bobby Brown (for whatever reason, but actually because I think he was the token "bad boy"). It's not hard for me to believe at all that as a result of New Edition's popularity at the time,as well as his massively blown-up (but short lived) solo success, that Bobby at his pique had the opportunity to bed a whooole-lotta people that we would not have imagined possible. When they are at the height of their fame, those folks sort of travel in packs, partcularly when single and do all manner of things that nobody will ever find about about (until, well, somebody releases books on their I exploits guess lol)...
