Whitney pretty much wraps up a revealing, candid yet classy interview with Oprah yesterday in promotion of her new album. The most poignant parts of the interview were her talking about Bobbi Kristina and also how God is basically who she is talking about when she sings “I Look To You” (as if we didn’t know that though, especially with it written by R. Kelly).

At the end, there was a performance of “I Didn’t Know My Own Strength” in front of an audience full of Whitney fans. My only issue with this was yes, Whitney sounded really decent. However, it was because they lowered the key of the song so much LOL. It’d be impossible for her not to sound good singing it that low.

Overall though, it was a very honest and much needed sitdown. Whitney’s story is powerful and brings hope to a lot of people no doubt. I hope and pray she stays clean and continues on the road to recovery, “one day at a time,” just like she said. I’m rooting for her.

And of course, Bobby has had a few words to say. Watch ‘em here.

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.
