Whitney Houston Finally Dumps Bobby Brown

Posted by Ife Oshun - Filed under: R&B/Soul, R&B/Soul articles - (Wednesday September 13, 2006 at 7:15 pm)

It seems like the entire world, both online and offline, is literally rejoicing with the news that Whitney has finally kicked Bobby to the curb. We went looking online to see if anybody out there felt bad for the jilted hubby.

As previously reported, Superhead recently claimed she and ex-flame Bobby (ok who wasn’t one of her ex-flames?) have been spending time, so it’s a possibility that this might have sullied his otherwise pristine reputation…

As Gawker.com neutrally points out, Access Hollywood is running with this story, and might be one of the more reliable places to get the freshest info on the split. They say last night Whitney was hanging tough at the Ella Awards with Clive Davis and auntie Dionne Warwick, and looking a little like her old self (look at the pics). Perhaps Patii Labelle’s call for action is at the root of this dramatic change?

And while some rejoice openly, the ironic thing is Bobby’s new girlfriend, Superhead, may be working in conjunction with Whitney to get the latter’s career back on track. If this is the case then ‘head’s our new hero.

A commenter over here even pointed out Osama Bin Laden may be celebrating the news.

Well, it was fun looking for that one person who empathized with Bobby, but since we failed all we have to say is this: Hell to the yes… let’s hope she had a pre-nup.

And This Too, Shall Pass. Whitney the World Loves You and Your Music. God Has His Hands On You And NO ONE (even the negative words from the Media) Can Stop What God Has Planned For You. Welcome Back Whitney!!!!
Comment by King

It’s good that they’re seperated, yes. But is Bobby the sole cause of Whitney’s drug habit? The answer is “hell no!”. Bobby is a bastard, there’s no doubt. But Whitney has to accept responsibility for Whitney’s actions. Bobby has been a rather convenient scapegoat for Whitney’s inability to handle her own issues like a person should. I’m from New Jersey and grew up in the community where she’s from. Whitney’s issues stem from her trying to be free of her mother and live her own life. And upon meeting Brown who did whatever he wanted to do she was able to express that rebellious behavior and had backup - Brown. She made her bed and layed in it. Time for her to get up on her own. And think about this people… if Superhead is willing to help Whitney get back on track… Bobby can’t be all that bad. Who do you think Superhead consulted about being of assistance to Whitney prior to approaching her? It’s an infinitely small list of people who can get that close to Whitney. Only one person Whitney and Superhead have in common…

Just some food for thought.

I, too, hate to bust everyone’s bubble because if people think that Bobby was Whitney’s “downfall” and the reason she got cracked out–they are in for a rude awakening. What likely happened was…Bobby was a functioning addict and Whitney was NOT. Bobby is not the reason things have gone downhill for Whitney. She is. She is responsible for her own life and the welfare of her daughter, Bobbi Christine. What’s gonna happen to Whitney is the same thing that happened when Mike Tyson split from Robin Givens, in which everything was blamed on Givins. People are going to realize that the person blamed is NOT the person responsible. Personally, I think SUPERHEAD AND BOBBY forced her hand by just putting their romance/relationship on front street so quite frankly, Whitney was forced to do what needed to finally be done. Bobby had already moved on by ALL REPORTS…he’s been actively involved with this woman, privately and PUBLICLY, so the only thing Whitney COULD do was file.

Between Bobby and Whitney, my vote is BOBBY on who is the most sane and cognitive one.

Damn!
It is about time! You will soar high “naturally” from now on without the rodent Boddy Brown.
Comment by Sista

I was on You Tube last night watching an old performance by Whitney and I saw a comment that left me in stitches.Someone referred to Bobby as the Yoko Ono of our generation… lol.

Bobby is hated and blamed for the downfall of Whitney and I have to agree.Everything about Whitney changed once she took up with this man.Bobby always had issues and Whitney had none.This is a clear case of a woman just allowing a no good man to take her to the depths of hell all out of susposed love.
Comment by HoneyBee

As Bobby and Whitney has joined in marriage they have made the choice to chose what is right and what is wrong. Frankly it seems as if the world is doing it for them. Bobby and Whitney get it together the both of you need to be deserted on an island and the survival of your relationship will be based on your LOVE. Now let us see if the both of you do give of onself to another. Stop this specticle of embrasment to your children and yourself.Both of you are equally responsible for this mess. Two great people with a gift and talent from God and turning your blessing into a curse.YOU CAN DO THIS, GO FOR IT. God bless.

OK….. You try singing all those years to all those people..night after night …day after day…everybody in your face all over the world while you live in a fishbowl. Sure your making tons of money but lots of money is like too much candy, And after a while..u have to find a way to make it feel good to you too!!! Singing may look like fun..and u may enjoy listening to somebody do it?..but if its not fun to the person singing anymore …What do u do?
Most entertainers resort to drugs or just git out after their big hit…but In Whitney’s case there is NO ESCAPING HER TALENT..THE FORCE WAS JUST TOO GREAT!
And on the real?..after all she has been through …I guarantee she looks a whole lot better than most of u skanks of the same age tryna dis her in her latest pics. Shut the hell up..and enjoy the ride…The Nip Has Returned for round 2…Get Used It…Go Nippy Nip!!!!!
Comment by Tammy

I believe that Boof has just saved Houston’s life. She has given Whitney the strength to say its okay to move on. Sometimes getting attention from an admirer when you are in a bad relationship helps you wake up!!!
Seemingly this is what has happened in Houston’s case. Wether or not Osama chooses to pursue Whitney is not really the point, the point is that she is now recognizing that there really is a problem and actually taking matters into her own hands to resolve it. Whitney whatever you choose to do is your business. You have my support 100%. From one woman how knows about being in an abusive relationship to another.
Soar beautiful Song Bird!!!!
Comment by najee

Hey;
I just want to say first and foremoest everyone involved has God in their lives or they would have not gotten this far. Everyone wants to be so judgemental about Bobby & Whitney well they shouldn’t. These are 2 human beings who just happen to be celebrities & we are on the outside looking in; who are we to judge & say what is right or what is wrong; or who is to blame or who is not. Whitney as long as you continue to be a strong woman you can overcome anything; & Bobby the same thing goes for you…and Superhead; well i think a name speaks for itself but anyway, keep the Lord in your lives & in your heart & remember that there is no shame in falling down; the only shame is staying down. There are people far more important involved that should be considered and that would be your children.
God Bless.
Comment by Debedee

I second every word that was said by comment number 14. by najee lets leave the jugeing to God, who are we to cast stones, we all have fallen and will still fall.
Love to whitney, and may God bless and keep her for the future. She can now help others who will fall and have fallen.
Comment by The ATL man

I know that every whitney fan is praising the news that whitney is leaving bobby, i even seen the fact that elton john has commented on the relationship. I really feel that bobby was not the problem between the couples years of addictive and very strange behaviors, although i do feel that they added to eachothers addictions by being addicted to eachother. I have had the pleasure of meeting the couple actually going out to the couples home in atlanta,ga and i can truly say that whitney is very different than the television wants you to think of her… whitney is very hood, ghetto, loud, but at the same time she is very very cool, down to earth, loving, and kind. While whitney and bobby was at eachothers throat the whole night … they ended every remark with a kiss … so i know that it is truly real love… and for anyone who celebrated the end of a covenant made before god you are not connected with god. If whitney does hold firm to her decision to divorce bobby (i dont think she will) then she have had enough … nippy is a strong woman and knows what her vows meant and she has went through the ups and downs to keep them and bobby has done so as well… although bobby smoke weed and drink like hell… he is and was not the source of whitneys problem… she will even tell you that…. its really sad that he gets the blame for her addictions as if he made her do it!!! no not right !!! I love them both and wish them the best and i pray that the love they have will only grow to show people in this country and every other country across the world that divorce is not the answer … and question why is a gay man telling a woman to divorce her husband???? no not your place nor is it ours … PEOPLE LET THESE FOLKS LIVE THEIR LIVES … but u heard it here … i was there at the house in atlanta less than a month before this news and they were packing to move to malibu … ITS NOT OVER ….. WHITNEY AND BOBBY WILL STAY MARRIED …. BUT DO WHAT THEY WANT GO BUY HER ALBUMS AND SUPPORT HER LIKE WE USE TO … THANK YOU FOR READING …. LOVE YA NIPPY …. AND BAD BOY U ALREADY KNOW …. HI BOBBY CHRIS .. WHATS GOOD POPS BROWN AND KELSY … OHH CRAZY ASS TOMMY .. SEE U ALL
Comment by The ATL man

YOU GUYS STOP TALKING ABOUT BOBBY ….. HE IS A GREAT PERSON .. YOU NEED TO MEET THIS GUY HE IS A GREAT GUY … HELL HE IS GIVING,KIND AND LOVING YOU HAVE TO MEET THIS GUY …. IF U WERE TO MEET THEM BOTH TOGETHER YOU WOULD FALL IN LOVE WITH BOBBY HE IS A VERRRRRY VERRRRY NICE MAN VERY KIND AND RESPECTFUL OF EVERY WOMAN AND CHILD … U HAVE TO KNOW THIS !!!

personally bobby I feel had nothing to do with whitney turning bad.How can a person turn another person bad if bad wasnt already in theme.Come on now before all the stardom whitney had a life.Yes we all know about the good church girl but remember god said beware of sheep in wolves clotheing.I get so sick of people putting bobby down ya know hes a man a human like all of us personally i believe the public hurt bobby in alot of ways our own black sisters putting em down talking about hes looks.I remember when he was with new edition girls use to scratch out bobbies face to show he didnt fit with the rest of hes crew.Black people especially is known for putting people down for what they look like.Instead of hateing on bobby we all should embrace him he is our brother and personally i believe bobby made new edition.I remember when bobby left new edition bobby bounced back with the smash hit cd Dont Be cruel come on the man was clearly sending a message to the public.Think about the lyrics dont be cruel because i will never be that cruel to you.Come on now all the negative responses he got when he was with new edition he went solo and made hit after hit come on we all remember tender roni my perogitive dont be cruel and other hits the man created we all was bumping to bad bobby brown.I get so sick of folk forgetting bobby was a star to ok .Bobby was a bad boy the public felt and whitney was suppose to be this good girl.Well to me whitney wanted a bad boy so she got what she wanted a bad boy why because you can only hide who you truly are for so long come on now she knew bobbys history she knew he was a player player in hes time hell who in the music buisness aint a player.Atleast 75% of the black music entertainers are players male and female.I hear the rumor bobby put whitney on cocaine thats bull come on now we still blind to whitneys true colors how we know she wasnt already doing drugs look im not racist at all but we know whitney got a lot of white friends hell dont forget white folk do drugs to if not worse than blacks.What i cant understand is a brother smoke crack he is the scum of the earth but when a white man smoke that exspensive drug he just haveing a good time come on now all this hype with bobby brown is stereo typed wrong as hell and people need to stop putting the brother down i like bobby and its my perogative.So lets get the facts about the brother before we continue to put em down we all got faults every body got faults come on now who with out sin cast yo first stone lets keep it real.
