wow I missed this as I didnt realize it was being televised. I could have sworn I heard a quote from her mother in regards to the funeral about how she and her family shared Whitney for nearly 30 years and wanted this time for themselves. Or maybe Im misinterpreting thi

It's none of my business, but I get more and more curious about the Bobby situation because it's sounding MUCH worse than I think any of us thought. I never would have guessed that this not being invited to the funeral at first/beingdenied acess to his daughter business was true. I mean, what the hell happened that security prevented him from going over to see his daughter?? If that's true, that an only mean one thing, that BK doesn't want him near her. She's grown enough to say yea or nay to her father.

The family decided against a stadium funeral - a la Michael Jackson - and agreed to allow an Associated Press camera in for the public to share in the funeral from a distance.

ETA:

He had two kids before meeting her, I think. During their relationship, I'm not sure. He had one after their marriage ended. From reports I've heard she loved his other children as she was their step-mother.

Ive been watching Whitney music videos all day long. Its amazing seeing the evolution of her music. I especially love the cheesy 80s videos. and its amazing what a vast difference you see in her and the production values going into the 90s.

Bobby Brown never had any kids aside from Bobbi Kristina during his marriage. He had 3 prior to Whitney and one after. I beleive his kids had every right to be there. Not only did they love Whitney and she loved them as their stepmother, they are Bobbi Kristina's siblings and would be there to support her during her time of need

These are the 5, that's Bobbi (soon to be 19) with one of the three before Whitney, LaPrincia (21).

This is LaPrincia's brother from the same mama, Bobby Brown Jr (20). The baby is Bobby's child with his current fiance.

This is Bobby's oldest, Landon (26).

Whitney Houston sang at the funeral service for Bobby Brown’s mother Carole Brown who was buried yesterday in Boston, Massachusetts. According to TMZ, Whitney reached out to Bobby and asked to be a part of the funeral spoke a few words at the service and said she would always consider Carole her mother-in-law.

Whitney performed twice at the service, first singing “Precious Lord Take My Hand” and then later joining in with Johnny Gill and New Edition to sing Never Would Have Made It.

Yeah, she had sort of a Valley Girl accent. BK seemed kind of miffed with the attention her big sis was getting, or sad and annoyed that she was still a kid and Laprincia was a big girl now.

They were a mess but they did seem like fun people to hang out with. I draw the line at cocaine though.

Ha, "line", I didn't even...

They say Mariah was there but I'm not sure if the back of the head I thought was hers was really hers. Oprah and Gayle were easily spotted up front. I don't know how I missed Mary J. when I later saw a pic of her outside in a ghastly long blond wig. There was another lady with light long hair who looked like a singer but I couldn't i.d. her. I also saw Leslie Uggams.

Landon had issues with Whitney that they may or may not have worked out. He didn't feel she loved him. He told the Enquirer a few years back he felt she treated him like staff and she didn't want him to hang around with Bobbi.

This is a video (or two) of Whitney singing at Bobby's mothers funeral earlier this month:

    • Yes, I said some stupid things but I did not act on them.
    • I believe Jagger said Stone was in an assisted living community and thriving.  So Jagger wasn't exactly a part of his day-to-day life.  We know absolutely nothing about Stone's mother besides that it's not Karen, so it's possible she's more involved.  On Nightshift it did seem like he was the main caregiver though.
    • And, in fact, that is exactly what I did do, offered a sincere apology, and a year went by without it happening again & during that time I paid an unbelievably high price. And, during that time I did not speak of it. I did not offer a defense. I just took my lumps. I had been too upset to discuss it. I believed that I would not be believed. And, now I have finally made one statement & your interpretation of my actions is that I come back with excuses, defenses & distortions - whatever the heck that means - and, yes, some people choose not to believe me when I have been nothing but truthful ... forever.  So, your statement that all I needed to do was apologize, sorry, not what happened. 
    • I wonder what happened to Jagger's son?  BTW, did Jagger ever go back to the Bay Area to see his son the entire time he lived in Port Charles?
    • Just because Taggert is so anti Sonny I don't see that working for Lois. I agree with all this.   I still thought Harrington was decent.  He was just completely wrong for the role.  Weirdly being hung up on Karen and Stone was a strange choice too.  They've been dead for years and years and he wasn't married to Karen when she died in a car accident and didn't even show up to Stone's funeral.   Correct and Donna is acting like she didn't PM people like me this info about Drake months before he passed away. 
    • Wagger was so bizarre. I still don't care about that dude and I knew what would happen to him from the beginning. But it is crazy they pretend like it didn't matter Sonny stone cold killed a fed. I'm sure they will pick it up in a year or two to try to save face and make it important for some other plot point, like how they forgot all about Austin, Nikolas shooting Hayden and letting Shawn take the fall, etc. He was mediocre and folks acted like he was Douglass Watson because of that one Mulcahey speech! The answer here is the same one to anyone who is familiar with Donna from BITD: She implicitly believes she unofficially works here and has a position of authority in fandom. She does not.
    • I would much rather see Lois with someone young and exciting over being with Taggert.  Rick Webber Jr or have a scandalous affair with Dillon Quartermaine.  Tracy would lose her mind.
    • Well, of course, it's unlikely. But in the what-if fantasy world, I wonder if the actors/characters would work well together.
    • I was thinking at some point down the line the show might bring Stone Jr. (2.0?) to PC and avenge his father's unsolved murder or something. I don't know who that Jagger was either.  Strange casting.  The actor was all wrong for the part even if I thought Adam Harrington could act.
