Whitney’s Comeback
It’s hard for me to discard the images from an interview, some 7 years ago, where a blatant and belligerent Whitney Houston proclaimed that she and Bobby (Brown) didn’t do cocaine. In an attempt to clear her name, Whitney’s babble only made matters worse.
“First of all, let’s get one thing straight. Crack is cheap. I make too much money to ever smoke crack. Let’s get that straight. Okay? We don’t do crack. We don’t do that. Crack is whack.” Houston to Diane Sawyer, 2002.
Are you serious? You make too much money to do crack? Comments from the high-class addict only ignited the firestorm surrounding her. The singing sensation would receive elevated exposure and constant condemnation in the years to come for that infamous remark.
But now, in 2009, Whitney attempts a comeback. A new album, I Look To You and appearances on the Oprah show and Good Morning America should give the comeback a promising attempt. It “should” be a promising attempt…Whitney on GMA (skip to 3 mins, 30 seconds): Me and Bobby’s baby.
That is pitiful. “Me and Bobby’s baby?” Give me a break! Yeah, the kid is cute and all, but giving her a solo and a shout-out to her ex-husband during your supposed comeback concert…not cute at all.
Good Luck Whitney.
