Jennifer Holliday has a reputation as a hater. Even has she stated in her initial CNN interview that after her home was foreclosed, whitney reached out to her and offered her personal gigs to keep her working and sending her to other artists to gig so she could make money.

For that she was rewarded by Jenny saying some disparaging things about her that did not need to be said true or not true.

These two ladies weren't friends. When whitney did her career defining 10min performance at the AMAs including I loves u Porgy, And I am telling you and I have nothing, I will never forget hearing Jennifer on the radion dissing whitney saying 'out of all the songs she could have sung she sung my song and not even well'.

Whitney has never disparaged any one and even Puffy said she was not a hater but a congratulater especially as you continue to hear stories of how she reached out to help younger artists or even older artists.

Whether true or not, Jen's remarks were distateful. Did she run and called up CNN to speak on whitney's passing. She was one of the first and they were not friends. They didn't even run in the same circles.

^^Damn this post was everythang! Thank you Entertainer. I can't count how many women who have said Whitney was there for me and/or encouraged me! She didn't have to do that at her level but she did and thats RARE. Yet you got folks like Jenny who rather help give ammunition to the negative folks(the O'Reilly's) and/or closed minds out there who have 1 black friend when its convenient.

Nobody's checking for her ass! I bet she called CNN for time and volunteers all info to anyone who'll listen...radio,tv,press. I dont wanna hear the cop out well she was asked cuz they all were! You can do it her way or like Valerie Simpson for example w/ class. Val was like no I know what you all are trying to do, but we know her struggles so lets move on b/c there was more to her. You can control the tempo IF you want and shut them down. No wink & a smile and saying I dont want to (but here it is) is gonna fool anyone.

Jennifer needs to sit her ass down lol. I didn't even mind the drugs comment, but she's been PRESSED for the last 30 years because her music career never took off.

And Whitney's 1994 AMA Performance was the best live performance in the history of television. I dare somebody to show me a better performance than that. Jennifer's caterwalling ass looks like she's having a fucking epileptic seizure when she sings. Her damn mouth is waaay too damn big. evillol
