Whitney Houston

First, I have to admit that I am pretty disgusted with some of the comments that people are making regarding Ms. Houston's death.  Our society is turning into a bunch of heartless, gutless barbaric turds!  She may have died from an OD, we don't know yet.  My point being that even if she died from a drug overdose, she was still a human being.  She was someones daughter, someones mother, etc.  Many people have this attitude that if you are an addict or alcoholic, you deserve to die.  That there is a subject that I may dive into one day.  I've been somewhat avoiding it though, because there is no way I could possibly contain my opinion to one blog entry.  It would definitely be a multiple blog entry.

I am a fan of Whitney's music and acting.  In fact, Waiting To Exhale is one of my favorites.  With that being said, I would say I'm just a mediocre fan of hers.  She had a phenomenal voice and was a beautiful woman.  I just was never what I would call a huge fan.  Would I have went to see one of her shows?  Probably not.

There's also the fact that Ms. Houston could be a fantastic BITCH!  (And not in a good way.)  Very Diva-esque.  I've heard some of the insane demands that she would bark at people.  Meh, whatever.  I won't elaborate more on that because I don't like to speak ill of the dead-primarily because they aren't here to defend themselves.

I will have to admit that I became hooked on the reality series Being Bobby Brown when it was on.  Bobby and especially Whitney were RAW in it.  To the point of hilarity.  Her public persona used to be this classy entertainer.  Once that show started to air-girl went GHET-TO!  Like they say, you can buy lotsa things but ya can't buy class!

I do feel bad for Ms. Houston's family, especially her daughter Bobbi Kristina.  Hopefully she will find the strength that she needs to get through this.  She's only 18 years old.  That is such a tough age to lose a mother.

It will be interesting in the coming weeks to find out what the official cause of death was.  Like I said earlier, even if it was attributed to drug abuse; did she really get what she deserved?
