Bobby Brown Confirms He Is Distressed By Claims He Destroyed Whitney Houston

Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown

This is a follow up to the April 30, 2012 article Bobby Brown Breaking Down At People Blaming Him For Whitney Houston's Death. Later in the day, Matt Lauer released an excerpt from an interview with Bobby Brown that is scheduled to air on Thursday, May 3, 2012, in which he states he is not to blame for Houston's drug problems and she is the one, who introduced him to hard drugs.

Previously, Brown made similar statements, regarding singer, Janet Jackson, whom he also dated, being the person that introduced him to hard liquor. People that know both women dispute these statements. Houston herself stated in an interview that after she got married to Brown, in what was an abusive marriage, she fell into hardcore drug use, smoking marijuana joints laced with crack cocaine.

Houston overdosed on February 11, 2012 in Beverly Hills, California. She was 48. The Judiciary Report predicted her death in the April 27. 2010 article Whitney Houston On The Brink. People in the industry, namely Houston's label and handlers, kept pushing her career rather than rehab, to her detriment.

In the February 13, 2012 article "Whitney Houston Is The Latest Hollywood Star To Die Under Tragic Circumstances" the Judiciary Report stated of Bobby Brown, "With fame came challenges - namely heavy drug and alcohol abuse being introduced into her life, with her marriage to Bobby Brown in 1992 (sorry, Bobby, but it's true). Many commented that prior to Brown, Houston was alert, on time for events and did more career work. However, that changed when she got married and people publicly commented on and wrote about it."

Brown is in denial about drugs and alcohol. It is evident in him blaming Houston and Jackson for his addictions. I hope he truly gets clean or he shall die early as well. Same regarding their daughter, Bobbi Kristina Brown, who also has addiction issues. Drugs and alcohol are no joke. It's a tough place to be in. I know people that have struggled with it, but it takes dedication to beat it - and just know - people can beat it.
