Where's bobby with his pair of tongs when you need him?!

Bobby is actually doing well. he's almost done with the album, and he's 6 years sober.

He's doing better than, dare I say, Whitney.

He sure is Kudos to him. And just when everyone thought that it would be Whitney back on top, clean and doing better than ever while Bobby would be foaming at the mouth in some crack alley....how ironic things turn out to be.

I wasn't dissin bobby i was just making a lame constipation joke.

How so? Whitney's so called 'comeback' wasn't all that, but it was her first #1 album in years. And the album was pretty good IMO. Now she's prepping for a movie. What the hell has Bobby Clown been doing? Whitney kept him relevant. I gurrantee you if Bobby 'acted a fool' on an airplane, it wouldn't be a top news story. Whintey Houston is a trending topic right now.

Damn what did Bobby ever do to you?

Leave dude alone.

I pefer him not trending and keeping sober and healthy, then the opposite.

It's not a slight against Whitney.

We all want her to get better as well.

Obviously you are out of touch. So I'll leave it at that.

looks like she's playing the 'diva' role again

Whitney Houston
Flight Crew Threatens ...
Fasten Your Seatbelt, Or Else

Whitney Houston isn't on drugs anymore ... she's just crazy -- and yesterday she almost got

kicked off a Delta Airlines flight ... because she refused to buckle her seatbelt.

Multiple sources tell us ... Whitney boarded a flight in Atlanta Wednesday afternoon ... and when she settled into her seat, a crew member asked her to buckle up.

We're told Whitney refused and "got diva" on the crew member ... until another crew member came over and warned Houston that if she didn't buckle up, she would have to get off the plane.

Whitney eventually allowed one of the crew members to grab the buckle and fasten it for the singer -- and the plane was then cleared for takeoff.

Sources close to the singer tell us ... Whitney "overreacted a little bit after missing an earlier flight but she's still 100% sober and was on the way to Detroit for her first day of shooting a new movie."

It's not right, but it's OK ...

If you think Bobby is 6yrs sober I got some swamp land in Louisiana to sell you. You just don't hear about him because nobody cares. Trust me on that. LOL!

Bobby drinks more than a fish! and looks like he has cirrohsis of the liver. You people must live in a vacuum.

Like I said, bobby isn't in the news because nobody cares about him, no diss just facts. If you follow him and look at how he looks Whitney looks like a Queen besides him. He looks ill and I'm serious.

Like the poster said, how is Bobby doing better than Whitney. His single sold triple plastic. She release a cd in 2009 that went platinum in the US, #1 on the Billboard 200 and R&B charts, 2#1s on the urban a/c charts, #1 on the Billboard dance charts, 2 top 20 hits on the Billboard R&b singles chart, #16 on the Billboard gospel chart, top 30 on the Billboard Jazz charts, (the singles).

The cd was #1 8 countries and top 5 in many others. #3 in the UK with 'Million Dollar Bill' getting to to #5 on the UK Singles chart. her tour grossed over $40mil, she's starring in 'Sparkle' with an Executive Producer credit and is going to be in the Waiting To Exhale sequel as soon as Terry McMillan submits an approved script.

Add to that if she wasn't relevant, this stupid story wouldn't have blown up and been covered by all the major tv orgs, major entertainment mags, worldwide, #1 trending on Yahoo all day, and on the Today show thsi morning.

Bobby was only relevant because he was married to Whitney for many years and remain nonrelevant.

If Sparkle is a hit and happy does what I think it will do, it will put her back on top as one of America's leading Black actresses who can greenlight a movie and put seats in a theatre.

hate her or love her, she is an enigma and people continue to find her interesting. Example here is the haters who flock to any post here with her name on the subject line, lol!

I personally think this story was planted. Every report on the incident made sure to say she wasn't using any substance, still clean and on her way to Detroit to film a movie. I mean you don't get anymore free press than that. The media barely even mentioned her at the charity event this past weekend, but a little incident on the plane made CNN front page news, literally. She was the #1 searched topic on yahoo yesterday. And to the person who said Bobby is doing better than Whitney, yeah right. Whitney actually released a #1 cd, that went platinum, #1 in Europe five weeks in a row and two semi-hit singles. Now she's working on a movie which i'm sure won't flop either. They are both rebuilding their lives, I just heard about Bobby doing the Car Show in Houston, TX on the radio this morning. The only difference betwen Bobby and Whitney is that Whitney is the bigger star, and that has ALWAYS been the difference.

Sometimes better doesn't mean successful.

It means Healthy.

Post a recent pic of bobby and tell me he doesn't look ill. I've seen tons of pics of him over the last 2years and he looks like a drunk! Trying to tear Whitney down doesn't change that. Post a pic of her today and post one of him and see the difference.

heck post one of him months ago and one of her- he looks sick and like he is still drinking. Her skin looks healthy and she looks great.

Another day, another airline incident involving a star.

This time, TMZ is citing multiple sources as saying that Whitney Houston "almost got kicked off a Delta Airlines flight because she refused to buckle her seat belt."

Really?

Apparently, the singer boarded a flight in Atlanta Wednesday afternoon and got into an argument with a flight attendant because she wasn't buckling up. Houston, who had missed an earlier flight, was on the way to Detroit to shoot the movie, Sparkle. Finally, she got strapped in and the plane was

We’re so glad to see Whitney Houston consistently looking good…it shows she is truly trying to rid herself of those crazy demons nOV 2009 AMAWARDS

What's so funny about what you bolded? It's accurate! She got $10mil for The Preacher's Wife which put her in an elite category of actresses. I can gurantee you that Angela Bassett, although more talented as an actress probably have never seen even a $5mil paycheck.

Queen Latifah, NO!, Janet Jackson, NO!, Taraji P Henson, NO!, Mo'Nique, NO!,Paula Patton, NO!

The only one who saw that paycheck back then was Halle Berry and she has had hits and misses re her box office success. Whitney's groundbreaking salary came before Beyonce's for 'Dreamgirls'.

Last time I checked, Whitney has never had one of her movies that she has either starred in or produce flop! Check it!

Production credits:

Cinderella- tv ratings bonanza- broke a record.

Princess Diaries 1 & 2 both grossed over $100mil

The Cheetah Girls 1 & 2- both sucessess

Continue laughing but nothing that I've said is inaccurate!

I'm really exhausted today, so exhausted I can't be bothered to put on my pants. Guess I'll just wear boxers to work! #whitneyhoustonexcuse13

Sista girl could still be flying around in Gulfstream lear jets if her money hadn't gone up in puffs of smoke.

What are you talking about? it kills me to no end when people show up in a whitney thread to spew garbage just for hating sake and are usually wrong, so funny

Anyone who has followed whitney knows that she is immensely frugal- she's been known for recycling outfits on tours, wearing the same white shirt, jeans, boots and bag at airports etc She is on record as saying she is frugal. Even on BBB, it's said she had Bobby on a budget and wouldn't let him buy a watch.

She has great lawyers and financial planners. i'll clue you in, her tour grossed around $40mil Feb to June 2010- she either got 35% per venue or a flat $250$400k per show. Worse case scenario she made $12 mil from that tour

In dec 2009, she did 2 shows in Russia where the venues were 15-19k full It's said she made at least $2m from both shows. She still has her $100mil contract with Arista- she did a private show in France early 2010 while on tour, i'm betting she got a cool $500k to $1mil for that and she flew to Prince Azim of brunei's birthday party along with Mariah and Usher in July of this year. She is cloes friends with that family and they paid her $7mil in 1996 to come to their country to do a concert, see it on youtube. It's said he paid her $500k to $1mil for that party appearance.

Now she is doing Sparkle as an actress, executive producer and i'm betting she is getting back end points and she will do Exhale 2- trust me she is not hurting for money.

She has personal bodyguards whereever she goes and personal drivers, she just doesn't feel the need to floss. She travels with her daughter, son, sister in law/co manager, personal assistant and bodyguard whenever she travels. She's doing good.

Bobby brown walked away from that marriage with nothing thanks to an iron clad pre nupt that her father had both of them sign that stood the test of time- she has great advisers

Looks a lot better than he did a couple of years ago,

I rarely post about Whitney and there is a positive post on this very board about her visiting a teen summit.

Don't pay any attention to some of the others here. Every time Nippy makes a buffun out of herself, her fans always come scrambling to her rescue, making excuses and accusing others of picking on the poor thing and being haters. As I've stated before, Nippy is an attention whore, whether it's positive or negative, it doesn't matter to her. If she didn't enjoy it so much, she wouldn't keep making a clown out of herself for the world to see. Just who does she think she is? What? She doesn't feel like she has to follow the same rules as everyone else on the plane?

now should one suppose u had the same sentiments about Amy Winehouse(embolded)? (who by the way i luved deeply as a great vocalist, writer and musical artist.)

i feel concern for Whitney Houston. i hope someone close to her will continue to help her along her path. she has such a great voice, when she is well. i for her to be able to maintain her recovery.

yah know, kit-b ur/our words are in many cases be recorded in time like the (particle) rings around the planet saturn. as these (word) particles rotate around saturn's core each word will eventually rotate back to it's point of origin.

be assured that one day they (ur word particles) will be played back in the form of one of ur life experiences. i hope your playback won't be too bitter or create a major yang 4 u.

q. are u sure ur not playing the attention whore here. earlier you expressed (in this thread)

are you sure you do not have a secret desire for guns and torches? especially if you keep letting the verbal assualt happen to you.

an inquiring mind wants to know

from a sage: "we are in charge of our words. once they are spoken they are in charge of us."

The only one I have any empathy for is Bobbi, who didn't ask to have two high-profile parents as drug addicts who decided to flaunt her and themselves on reality TV.

Debra Wilson is far more entertaining

Bobby was a mess, but I saw his Behind the Music a couple of years ago and I was pleasantly surprised he came a long way since.

As if i care? lol

Oversinging? overacting (attention whoring)? what's the difference?

love me some Debra!! No one portrays Whitney better.

As for Whitney, she'll never change Such a shame she's so unpleasant in person. I've heard countless negative stories about her.
