Well…she finally did it. Whitney Houston came clean, in MANY ways! Talked about lacing her blunts with cocaine, Bobby spitting on her, taking Bobbi Kristina with her to treatment…Oprah gave an EXCELLENT interview so far.
You know what I think? This was more so for HER as well it was supposedly for the benefit of her fans. There is nothing like confession. It’s good for the soul. That’s why the mental health field exists and why there are laws for confidentiality. Sharing makes you feel better.
I applaud Whitney though, because you know what, it really did make her seem more, I don’t know, human. Oprah was right on the money though with that “America’s national treasure” comment about “THE VOICE”. I really did feel like sometimes…”how dare Whitney mistreat this awesome gift!” People’s lives are their own though and you can’t help someone until they want to be saved.
As someone who has dealt with drug abuse and addicted family members and what not, my heart was so sad that she’d been through that. And Bobbi. And her mom! It was so crazy to finally hear it. But you can hear the 12 steps all up and THROUGH Whitney’s interview.
I’m so glad she’s together, and I pray she stays that way. After Part 2 airs, I will post up my album review as well.
Thoughts?

OMG! First I know people have said this 50 million times but Whitney looks fantastic. I was kind of leary when I started watching. I thought this was gonna be like that Chris Brown bullsh*t. An interview that was very vague and ambiguous and censored by the legal team but Whitney was raw and honest. I so love her for that. She was sober, clear-headed and just looked like she is in a really good place in her life. I think her honesty will help pull other women out of their situations. I also couldn’t believe the mess Bobby put her through.

@IPS, If you get the chance check out Wendy Williams’ show. She had some interesting comments about Whitney’s interview and she also revealed that she battled addiction. That was eye-opening

I wasn’t feeling how Whitney was acting like people who smoked crack were beneath her, how she kept reiterating that she didn’t drink alcohol, and perish the thought that she would suck her drugs through a pipe. Addiction is addiction; drugs are drugs whether it’s kilo, viles or liquid.
