stop buying crack yo! And maybe you would be able to pay for child support...or maybe next time - USE BIRTH CONTROL!


From eonline.com

On Wednesday afternoon, a family court judge in Massachusetts tossed a bawling Brown in jail for 90 days after the former King of New Jack Swing said he couldn't come up with child support payments to a former girlfriend and mother of two of his kids.


Brown was released from a Georgia jail Monday so he could attend the emergency paternity hearing in suburban Boston.


A Beantown native, Brown was due in Norfolk County Probate and Family Court at 9 a.m. ET for a contempt of court hearing. His onetime lover, Kim Ward, says Brown owes $63,500 in child support to their two children, a 14-year-old daughter and 12-year-old son. (Brown and Houston have an 11-year-old daughter, Bobbi Kristina Brown.)


But Brown didn't show up until 12:45 p.m., a move that ticked off Judge Paula Carey. Then, when Brown told the judge that he couldn't come up with the money, Carey ordered him immediately taken to the county jail. He will spend the next 90 days behind bars unless he coughs up the cash.


The former New Edition star said he had no job and no income. He said he planned on releasing an album next month and was going to star in a movie but didn't have any ready money.


"I never wanted this to happen," he said.


His lawyers offered to pay $10,000 now, another $15,000 within 10 days and then negotiate the rest. Attorney Vincent Dimmock said Brown's income was "nowhere near" his late-'80s/early-'90s "My Prerogative" heyday.


"I don't find it credible that no money has been advanced at all."


Carey wasn't buying it, though, saying she didn't find it "credible" that Brown was busted and figured that maybe jail would help him get the payments in order.

what a loser

got-dayum!! didn't he just get outta jail?

Man, just when you think he hit bottom he gets out a shovel.

dunno what to say about this one!

this man is a disgrace.

I'm sure Whitney will come up with the loot to bail out the King of R n' B

I can't wait to hear his next album or see that movie he's supposedly in. I need new material.

I should throw a party for him when he gets out and invite MJ, R Kelly, James Brown and Geroge Clinton.

She's bailing out Justin Timberlake?

No, he's the Jester

if he owes that much money...that means he hasn't paid in a long time. I personally think him and Whitney do a horrible job with Bobbi christina as well. That child looks depressed.


He cried like a bitch in court. When you're clean, finally, reality slaps the fuck out of you.

...i've heard of cases where the current wife was expected to help pay the husband's child support debt...since they are married...hmmm

Imagine the couple: Bobby Brown and Courtney Love together

I'm sure he has access to ol' Whitney's account...if not a joint one.

Bobby Brown is such a sad,pathetic joke.He gets sent to jail every few months,for one thing or another.and now he's telling a judge that he has "no income"? No shit! He's been living off Whitney for over a decade now.


let's send him off to "Has-Been Heaven"

In the words of Tavis Smiley..."If Bobby Brown could bottle up and sell what ever it is he put on Whitney...he'd make a million"

No, that would be Usher.

And when he got out, he said something like "this is the last time you'll ever see me in jail."

BWAAAAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!

I have no sympathy for Bobby Brown... or Whitney Houston. I am sorry but in the late 1980's and early 1990's he was without a doubt the King of R&B. He made sold millions and millions of records and I am sure he made something off that. I am sorry, but when you are over $63,000 in back child support, not only should you serve jail time but that warrants an ass whipping! To see him CRY in court was a disgrace and it just goes to show how hard he has fallen. Just when I think my shit is jacked up... I look at Bobby Brown!

Whitney? God bless this poor bastard. Bobby has fallen from grace but Whitney is just disgraceful. She wanted to prove to everyone how much of a "pop princess" that she ws not and married this fool to show how "hard" and "urban" she really was. I liked her better when she was singing pop songs with a blonde weave down to her ass! She is a joke! Checking out of rehab after five days? Come on, Whitney!

I hope that both of them gets help for their problems. We all issues and no one is immune from the trials and tribulations of life but these two insist on wanting the world to feel pity for them. I refuse to. They are both washed-up has beens and their only claim to fame now is rehab stints and jail time.

Hmm, that actually took longer than I thought.

I think at this point the press just has a template that they use

"Singer Bobby Brown has been jailed today for (insert sordid details here)"

Universaluv said:

That reminds me of something I heard on the radio the day it was announced that Whitney was in rehab. Something like, "What? Why is that news? Isn't it news when Whitney's not in rehab for something?"

At this point, its BEYOND pathetic the way these folks live their lives. I feel truly sorry for their child, as well as the kids from Mr. Brown's previous relationship.

If he'd put down the crack pipe, maybe he'd be able to pay his child support.

Damn shame.....

Oh my God!! Give me a break!

My hubby's ex wife went on welfare when they first divorced and has a couple thousand to pay the state. He makes installment payments on that in addition to his children's support.

Bobby Brown can't pay ANYTHING?!


What a loser.
