:: Patty Jackson's 411 for the week of April 26th, 2004:

Oprah Winfrey is planning a special show for Luther Vandross. Oprah is taking her show on the road May 6th, to visit Luther at his home and the rehabilitation center where he is recovering from a stroke. Luther suffered a stroke a year ago. Last week he turned 53.


On Friday the 30th, Bobby Brown sits down with Dateline NBC to talk about his drug use. Bobby tells why he abused marijuana, cocaine and alcohol. Bobby says he did it to avoid arguing with his wife, Whitney Houston. Now speaking of Whitney, her recovery is not going well. As a matter of fact, is she recovering? Whitney, Bobby and her drug counselor were spotted in the Bahamas and Whitney is still out of control. The drug counselor is apparently just hanging around because Whitney is not getting any better.


Basketball great Michael Jordan is up to his old tricks. According
to published reports Michael is cheating on his wife Juanita again.
Jordan was spotted in Las Vegas with a busty woman who was all over him at the gambling tables in Las Vegas. Jordan lost a fortune over a half million dollars while the woman proceeded to rub all over him and nibble on his ear. After Michael lost his money he left with the women and returned with her the next night as he lost more money. Jordan is worth $400 million. Is he losing his mind wasting his money on women and gambling, and where is Juanita? Michael and Juanita have been married since 1989 and they have three children ages 15, 13, and 11. In 2002, Juanita filed for divorce from Jordan after reports came out from various women that he was sleeping with them. What will Juanita do now? How long will she put up with his cheating? Will she continue to look the other way?
