It would seem that a larger-than-life drama is going to surround Whitney Houston's demise for some time now. I don't think any of this stuff will disappear. What was supposed to be a celebration of the someone's life turned into a pissing match between Bobby Brown and the Houston family.
I deliberately shut down and avoided this nonsense over the weekend. Who, in their right mind, would want to try and make sense of how Brown would throw a fit at his ex-wife's funeral and storm out? Who would want to sit and read the "insider" speculation from the well-paid hacks within the family's circle who are leaking every detail to the press? It all seems so pathetic and sad.
Now the drama will center around three issues. First, what will become of the only daughter, Bobbi Kristina? Second, when will Bobby Brown himself overdose on drugs and end up on a slab? Third, what will happen to all of the money that Clive Davis and LA Reid didn't already steal?
You can expect years of this nonsense to continue. The leaks out of this family will never stop, either. If you follow the link above and go to the The Daily Beast, you can see the "insider" stuff practically oozing off the screen. Some nobody bent the ear of a hack, and that's what it reads like to me. Of course, you can fully expect Brown to try to cash in on what happened and try to make money for himself. Which is fine, because he needs it now that his cash cow of an ex-wife is gone and her money will probably be handled by lawyers and the Houston family like a bottomless pot of gold.
Oh, and you can expect the record label now holding onto her recordings to continue fleecing consumers and you can expect that this tragedy will be milked for every penny it has left in it. Everyone will get their cut in the end and nobody will take the high road.
