December 4th: Whitney's Interview
 

Whitney faces the music on drugs, her weight and her marriage.



Whitney Houston talks to Primetime's Diane Sawyer in a revealing interview that will air on Wednesday, Dec. 4. (ABCNEWS.com) Tough Enough
Whitney Houston Describes the Highs and Lows of Her Career



Nov. 28 — Whitney Houston has a voice that has been called the greatest of her generation, and she has topped the music charts around the world and starred in movies. But for the last decade, her life has been plagued by scandal and mystery, with rumors of bizarre behavior and unexplained cancellations.



But one date she did keep was for an exclusive interview with Primetime's Diane Sawyer, her first sit-down interview in years.
In the interview, which will air on a special Primetime on Wednesday, Dec. 4, Sawyer asked Houston, 39, about her weight, telling her that Americans watching the interview would probably be scrutinizing her physical appearance for signs of illness or substance abuse. In a guest appearance on Michael Jackson's televised concert in February, Houston appeared thin and frail, giving rise to rumors that she was sick. There have also been rumors of drug use.

When Sawyer showed the singer a picture taken during the Michael Jackson concert, she admitted you could see her bones, but said, "I'm 5'7" and thin."

Sawyer also asked Houston about rumors of her substance abuse, and her turbulent marriage to singer Bobby Brown. The two talked about the highlights of her career — Houston said the high point was when she sang the national anthem at the Super Bowl in 1991 — and the low points, like the $100 million lawsuit filed against her in September by her 81-year-old father's entertainment company.

But asked if she was tough enough for show business, Houston was sure: "Oh, I'm tough enough," she said.

Bobby "The Crackpipe" Brown's Mugshots
 

Re: Bobby "The Crackpipe" Brown's Mugshots
 

He aint even no where near cute. I wonder what Whitney saw/sees in him...

Crackish!!!
 

Did anyone else notice that he is looking QUITE the Crackish one in his video "Thug Lovin" with Ja-Rule? That video/song is a joke!!!

I watched Good Day Live today. It's that show with Julian Barber, the weather girl on Fox Football. Well the reporter on the show read some of the transcripts from the Diane Sawyer interview with Whitney. Apparently Whitney admitted to abusing cocaine. Sawyer asked her was it alcohol, weed, pills, cocaine. Whitney apparently said it was all of it. Also she said that she's not currently using drugs. And yes she did almost die as reported due to drugs. But get this, she's not in rehab. She says that everyday she prays to Jesus. According to the transcript, at the end of the interview she says something like "Jesus loves me this I know". God is Good, and he can help you through anything, but I do that rehab is a good idea along with spiritual counseling. The interview should be very interesting.

LMAO, now that is a pic that should make any mother proud...lol:(

Re: Crackish!!!
 

Bobby looks high throughout the entire video. I like the song, but Ja could have found someone else to do the hooks!

Re: Re: Bobby "The Crackpipe" Brown's Mugshots
 

CTFU.
IMO:
Whether Booby "King of Rocks and Blunts" Brown was cute was irrelevant. :p Ol' Boobster was available, single and heterosexual -- fit Whit's needs perfectly at that time, because the lesbanian rumors were flying.

He was quite cracking in the videohttp://www.click-smilie.de/sammlung/...fuma/fuma2.gif... Jumping around like a dayum fool. Did it take all of that to sing the hook? I don't think so!
I think Ja was using him for hype...so that people would pay attention to the song...
Bad move ja...baaaaad move.

Soror, that smilie CTHU. CTHU. CTHU.
ROFLMP&GBO.

Evaclear,

That smilie is TOO damn funny. ROTFLMAO! :D

You all know that Bobby is just glad to be back on the scene. After all those years of not feeling wanted someone (ja) is trying to be nice to him. Maybe that was why he was jumping around like he won a million dollar sweepstakes...............:rolleyes: :rolleyes: or better in his case, won a sack full of dope.:D

Mariah is about to be on NBC in a couple of minutes too.:o

What time is Whitney going to be on tomorrow, does anyone know?

9pm Eastern
8pm Central on ABC


Whitney Houston Acknowledges Drug Abuse

DECEMBER 03, 2002


NEW YORK (AP) -- Whitney Houston admits she's abused drugs in the past, but says she's gotten beyond that time through prayer.

The Grammy-winning singer also discusses the pressures of stardom and her decade-long marriage to Bobby Brown in an interview with Diane Sawyer on "Primetime," scheduled to air at 9 p.m. EST Wednesday on ABC.

When Sawyer asks her, "Is it alcohol? http://www.click-smilie.de/sammlung/...aehrung009.gif Is it marijuana? http://www.click-smilie.de/sammlung/...fuma/fuma2.gif Is it cocaine? Is it pills?" Houston responds, "It has been at times."

"All?" Sawyer asks.

"At times," Houston says. "Uh-hm."

The 39-year-old concedes she's "addicted to a few things."

"Making love," Houston says. "I don't like to think of myself addicted. I like to think ... I had a bad habit ... which can be broken."

Houston's shockingly thin frame at last year's Michael Jackson tribute sparked reports that she was ill, which she vehemently denies. She also says she's not anorexic or bulimic.

"Let's get that straight. I am not sick. OK?" she says. "I've always been a thin girl. I am not going to be fat, ever. Let's get that straight. Whitney is not going to be fat, ever."

Brown also appears in the interview, and says he's frequently used marijuana http://www.click-smilie.de/sammlung/...fuma/fuma4.gifbecause he's been diagnosed as bipolar. The 33-year-old was arrested last month in Atlanta on drug and traffic charges.

"Me and drugs. We're not friends. We're not friends at all," Brown says. "I'm a very high-strung person. ... (Marijuana) http://www.click-smilie.de/sammlung/...fuma/fuma2.gif seems to help me ... from going up and down." http://www.click-smilie.de/sammlung/.../bongoBong.gif

Houston says she's done partying now, and has found strength through daily prayer. Her new album, "Just Whitney," comes out Dec. 10.

"I'm not the strongest every day, but I'm not the weakest, either," she says. "And I won't break."

Stop those smilies!
 

I am about to choke on my lunch.
CTFU. CTFU. CTFU. CTFU.

lmao!

It's on now!
 

Shoot, only 10 minutes in and we already have an unforgettable quote.

"Crack is cheap. I make too much money to ever smoke crack." :p

33mgirl,

WTF is Whitney thinking?:confused: Hell, that statement alone sounds crackish!!!!!!

I am watching this interview right now and is it me or does Whitney have attidude? I think she is acting straight stank in this interview.

I'm watching now and this is so sad. She is trying to dodge the questions and making excuses for her behavior. I've got to give it to Diane Sawyer cuz she just caught Whitney in a lie about the Clive Davis party and called her out. She is really asking the questions that needs to be asked and Whitney is indeed acting stank. Crack indeed. How ghetto is it for Bobby Brown to be listening from the other room and holler out an answer during her interview?? Um, Diane asked Bobby ONE question and he is already sweating bullets.

She's always stank. I thought this was a no holds barred anything goes interview?

CTFU, and didn't bat an eyelash when she did it! *lol*

EDITTED..
WHy when Diane asked Bobby has he ever hit her, Whitney was in the background asking "What is hitting"?

And will someone tell Bobby that he is no longer on to....and ain't been on top in a LOOOONNNNGGGGG time.

And why is Bobby sweating like a mofo???

Bobby said: No one can touch me as an entertainer, no one. http://www.click-smilie.de/sammlung/...fuma/fuma4.gif

And why is Whitney moving so much, it's worrying the hell out of me, if it's not her hair, it's her legs, feet, or she's playing like she doesn't understand simple a$$ questions.

DENIAL IS A DISEASE!

Denial is a disease indeed and Afrochic, you are killing me with that smilie!:D

Bobby is sweating like a Hebrew slave.

They got high before this interview.

Diane shoulda got a LIE DETECTOR TEST machine hooked to them.

Bobby umm boo my little high school students can outperform you.

Umm Bobby's teeth are GOLD!!!

Whitney's wedding hat = UGLY, Hot mess.

This interview is NOT no holds barred.

Can I get Whitney to stop fidgeting and tell the truth. Say it Whitney. I AM A DRUGGIE!! I am a BEEEEEECH!! I am being abused by Bobby. I stay with him to prove a point. Oh and I really am SORRY but he is not the KING OF R&B Music.

Oh and I am sorry but to say I get high every other day is FAH. Can he go to jail for that?:confused: :eek: :o DUMB AZZ.

all he has to do is get the lithium dosage altered. DUMB AZZZ.

HC this HEFFA asked for the receipts for $730 THOUSAND worth of drugs?!?!?!?!?!

Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo on that "making love" response to what she is addicted to. :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

http://www.click-smilie.de/sammlung/...fuma/fuma4.gif

CTFU...why now whenever I see this smilie, I shall forever think of Bobby Brown. *lol*

Whitney poor Whitney http://www.otal.umd.edu/~jyang/Images/goted02.gif

*Click*
 

Y'all know what? This interview is making me mad. :mad: I'm not watching this sh*t anymore.

Actually HoneyKiss Bobby is on top every time he satisfies Whitney's addiction to "making love." :o :p :eek: :p

Can you believe she didnt see anything wrong with her look at the MJ Tribute? Then she had the nerve to say she wasn't the only one that had digital imaging done to them to make them look larger/fatter. :rolleyes:

Again I say http://www.click-smilie.de/sammlung/...fuma/fuma4.gif

How many bucket of beans are they feeding that baby? Bobby Christina is eating up some stuff.

Probably eating due to her sick depressing parents. :(

Laryngitis???
 

Y'all believe that? Laryngitis? I thought it was all the crack. Or cocaine (b/c crack is too cheap for her, only the best, most refined high quality stuff for her), partying, whatever.

Anyway, they just showed the footage of her singing the nat'l anthem. Dang, took me back to 1991 when she could sang !

Came back to add The baby just said she wanted to be like her parents. Uh-oh. No, you don't baby.:(

CLAWDAMME
GAAAAAAAAAAWDAMN
OH DAMN

Bobbi Kristina is a lighter Bobby Brown with hair, that gap is all Bobby except her teeth get a dentist's care because they are pearly white or at least eCRU or mother of pearl.


BK ain't missing no meals either. I guess somebody RECK ON EYESedededed that ol BK needed a Just For Me because her hairline buckshots are GONE. :D

LMAO @ all of ya!

If CRACK is soooo cheap, shyyyyyt she must be on the HEROIN.

This is a mess. She is a liar. Bobby is a liar. Their crack/heroin azzes need to sit down.

What about the Robin Crawford drama. "....but I love ya!" What in the world. :confused:

She has Pebbles as her spirtual counselor and LA Reid, Pebbles, I mean Perri's ex-hubby as her "direcotr". What happened between she and Clive?

:eek:You are OFFICIALLY on posting punishment.:o :p

See at first I was thinking y'all were wrong for talking about Bobbi Kristine, but DAG....she is on SWOLL!!:eek:

Po' baby probably eating because she is depressed.:(

That's what it is. She on that hair-on

Dayum Whitty...
 

This is soooooo sad. This really could be a "Lady Sings the Blues" 2K2/2K3. :o

Didn't her eyes seem glossy? Isn't that a druggie trait? :confused:

I noticed that too. And then when Diane asked who else had had the digital imaging done, Whitney couldn't name not one person!

How are you going to call folks out and not name names:confused: :eek:
