Shocker.....well, on second thought not really. Can't do coke 7 days a week for 15 years straight and expect to have a long life...unless you're Keith Richards.

Associated Press confirmed it. Sad.

RIP Whitney. I took one of my girlfriends in HS to her concert at the NYS Fair. I got free tickets. This was the concert that started and then was called due to a torrential rain and thunderstorm. She promised to come back a week later and perform again. I said 'yeah right, this is little ol Syracuse and the NYS Fair'. She kept her word and came back a week later and played. This was when she was at the top of her game and before Bobby Brown. The Bobby Brown Whitney would never have come back. In fact, she probably would never have gone on in the light rain (which became a biblical deluge) to begin with.

Sad to hear.

Bobby Brown and Bel Biv Devoe have been the worst things to happen to a lot of people - ask Whitney and Rob Moore

Wasted talent

 

[bevosu]

She had pipes in her day.

Sad.

I am not aware of the BBD / Rob Moore story. Whahappen?

BBD did a song called "Poison" and in it there is a line that goes "Rob Moore you're dead". I believe that Rob Moore took Michael Bivin's GF away from him or something to that effect although I could be wrong on that.

That is not the line, and the Rob Moore thing is a myth.

 

[orangenauburn]

'wrong move, you're dead' misconstrued for 'Rob Moore, you're dead'

 

[bpo57]

Then what is the line?

Wrong move you're dead

Thanks for posting that.

Without a doubt, the finest singing of the NA ever! That girl had natural talent that just oozed from every pore on her body. Sad.

 

[suttree]

Thanks for posting that.

No kidding. That was just phenomenal. No need to riff when you've got incredible pipes like that.

I have a confession to make... The Bodyguard might be my all-time fave chick flick. Really liked that movie.

My best friend in college, roommate, best man in my wedding, died at age 47. Suicide. I'm still not over it. Such is life.

Carpe Diem, my friends.

So sad! Go to hell Bobby Brown!
