Okay so, I was over at Necole Bitchie's site and I got a chance to see Oprah's Whitney Houston interview. I love Whitney & I'm glad she's getting back on track but while watching the interview, one question kept crossing my mind: Is this real, or real scripted?
I mean yes, Whitney revealed some not-so-glamorous details about her & bobby's relationship, one of which included him spitting in her face in front of their baby girl! (SMH) & yes, she admitted to getting very deep into drugs to the point where she would just lock herself in the room & do her dirt. But I thought it was crazy how Whitney never gave an "umm" or a pause to think about an answer, regardless of how personal or how intense the question was. She did throw some pauses in for dramatic effect though! ;-) haha. I understand that celebrities are prepped before an interview as sort of a "heads up" about what questions will be asked, but I think Oprah's team did more than that. The only other thing that bothered me a little was that Whitney spoke as if doing drugs was beneath her, yet she admitted to still having the craving for drugs because "it takes time to cleanse". Wendy Williams had a lil' bit to say about the interview as well, but she gets more credibility than me on the subject because she revealed that she used to smoke that shit some years back too!
Scripted or not, the interview was definitely interesting. I think overall, it was a good look for Whitney & more than anything people are admiring her strength and her perseverance in overcoming drug addiction and an emotionally abusive marriage. Honey, the things that go on behind closed doors! =-O wow! In any case, Whitney Houston is back & I hope the plethora of love and encouragement she is receiving from her fans keeps her focused on continuing her amazingly successful career. Go cop her album "I Look to You" & decide for yourself is Ms. Houston is still "thee voice"!
'til next time babez! *mwuah --thatbitchRISS.
