I am so mad at myself that I missed that interview. Primetime needs to sell those or something cuz I want to see that bad. I wonder if "Hustleman Under the Bridge" has the bootleg versions of that?

Oh, and how bout the best part of Whitney's receipt from Target is the part that says "Crack pipes and Skittles purchased from this Target are non-returnable." Returning skittles is some Crackish mess.

***Sidebar: Isn't it funny how Jamie Foxx made "Crackish" a word?***

Whitney's Daddy Speaks
 
POP DIVA VS. POP: Whitney's Dad has a few things to say, too.


Whitney Houston
(Dec. 6, 2002) *What’s good for the goose … Whitney Houston spilled it, well, almost all, to Diane Sawyer on Wednesday and one day later, her father, John Houston, 82, made an appearance on the syndicated TV show “Celebrity Justice” to make a plea to his daughter saying, “Pay me the money.”
Ms. Houston is being sued by her father who claims that he and his partner were hired to help her with various financial and personal difficulties, as well as to negotiate her record contract. The elder Houston says they were never paid.

Of the suit, Whitney said in her interview, that it was hurtful and motivated by someone who "has put fear in his heart." She also made it clear that she wasn't paying.

"They'll never get $100 million out of me. I know that!"

Still, daddy Houston made the plea from a hospital bed (talk about guilt trip) asking his daughter to pay up the management fees she owes. Speaking to Whitney during his “CJ” interview, Houston said, "You get your act together honey, and you pay me the money that you owe me. If you do that, you haven't got a lawsuit. ... At my age, I haven't got that long.”

Meanwhile, it should come as no surprise that the "Primetime" interview was a ratings powerhouse for ABC, averaging 21.3 million viewers to rank as the most watched news magazine broadcast on any network since Connie Chung interviewed congressman Gary Condit on ABC's "Primetime Thursday" in August 2001.

Girl let me know!?!?

AKA2D '91 12-06-2002 08:32 PM

I heard this last night...
 
Did anyone hear that her GMA appearance isn't going to happen and her CD release date will be pushed back...AGAIN?

:confused:

Honeykiss1974 12-06-2002 09:16 PM

I figured that she would not appear on GMA, not after that hot mess of an interview.

Whitney needs to visit Bishop Eddie Long and drop Pebbles (yep, I'm still calling her Pebbles :p ) because apparently, Pebble's spiritual guidance isn't working. :(

yasava 12-06-2002 09:18 PM

can't say I'm surprised...
 
See, now Crack Kills (even the high-quality stuff)

yeah see that's what I'm talking about she wants to cover herself so bad that she's got to drag Aaliyah in this. And yep...like you said "like they were tight." I can see if Pebbles passed away and she said that, because they're tight (for reasons I'll never know).
The only thing I ever known her to have in common with Aaliyah was that Whit was considering putting Aaliyah in a movie project that never got underway.

It doesn't matter if she has the best spiritual guidance on earth, it Whitney doesn't want to help Whitney and let others help Whitney, then it's a lost cause. Remember, she's still in denial about how serious her problem really is.

Crack is wack.

CrimsonTide4 12-06-2002 09:32 PM

Until Whitney acknowledges that she has a problem and takes steps to remedy that problem, there is no helping her.

Whitney is a vessel and at one time was a class act. What makes her "downfall" so hard for us as fans to process is because she was a class act. If it were some other artist, one whose caliber was less than Whitney's we would be less "disappointed" but because it is someone who is an entertainer and not just a studio artist, we are befuddled by this "Sudden turn" in her lifestyle. Now of course this might be a lifestyle that she had before Bobby Brown but we need something to say to make us feel better so to say "Bobby turned Whitney to WEED, COKE, CRACK, MAKING LOVE :p (sorry could not resist) is a little easier for us to accept.

Whitney is determined to hold onto her marriage. In some ways I admire her because we have tons of other folks who marry and divorce before the ink dries on the marriage certificate or before they can eat the wedding cake for their first wedding anniversary. However I will not hold on to a man with all of that baggage -- drugs, jail, gap teeth, gold teeth, etc.

Houston's Father May Drop Lawsuit
Dec 6, 10:18 AM EST

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Whitney Houston's 82-year-old father told a syndicated television show from his hospital bed that he would dismiss a $100 million lawsuit against his daughter if she pays him money he says she owes him and gets her "act together."

The two-part interview with John Houston on "Celebrity Justice" was broadcast Wednesday and Thursday, while a separate prime-time interview with his daughter aired Wednesday night on ABC.

John Houston's entertainment company filed a lawsuit in New Jersey in September, claiming his daughter failed to pay for work done negotiating a $100 million contract with Arista Records. The lawsuit also claims lawyers from Newark, N.J.-based John Houston Entertainment LLC helped have charges dropped against Houston in 2000 after security guards at a Hawaii airport seized a handbag containing half an ounce of marijuana.

In her ABC interview, the 39-year-old singer acknowledged having abused drugs in the past, including alcohol, cocaine, marijuana and pills.


"I never thought about suing my daughter. I never thought about it that way," John Houston said. "I thought about suing the corporation that belongs to Whitney and she happened to be right in the middle of it."

He also addressed his daughter directly during the nearly hourlong interview, saying, "You get your act together, honey, and you pay me the money that you owe me. If you do that, you haven't got a lawsuit."
