Whitney Takes "High" Road

They may have had one of the most bitch-tastic break-ups ever, but Whitney Houston is done slinging the s**t with Bobby Brown, who is allegedly going to fling the dirty sheets off their marriage in an upcoming biography.
Whitney Houston, Bobby Brown
Bobby, among other things, is reportedly saying he married Whit in part to quell rumors she was involved in a relationship with her female assistant. He also says she was whacked out on drugs.

Whitney's rep tells TMZ, "Miss Houston is sad that Bobby feels the need to say such things but she chooses to take the high road and will not speak badly about the father of her child even if it's to set the record straight."

The NY Post says Bobby's autobio is supposed to pop next month.

UPDATE: We spoke to the press agent for the book, and she says it'll be out in June, and that it's being sold right now through something called Atlas Books. The publisher is an outfit called Down South Books.

1. I would say they were happy at one time.
Both have flushed their careers down the toilet.

6. I had forgotten about the rumors she was bi. Big deal if she is. It wouldn't surprise me if she did get married to kill the rumors.

10. How about confirming the author of the book? There is no way in hell this crackhead wrote a book. Shame on Whitney for getting involved with this loser anyway. Everybody tried to warn her, but she was too smart to listen. She'd be a lot richer and further along in life if she had never gotten inolved, much less, married to this leech.

11. This book will be on the 75% off sale table the day it's released. Who really gives a care what Bobby Brown has to say about anything much less his marriage to Whitney Houston? He's a low-class, ugly, talentless, drug addict. He claims Whitney married him to clean up her act. That's bull! He married her to clean up his and add some class to his ghetto behind. But guess what? It didn't work. Whitney really slummed it when she married him but at least she woke up and dumped him before he continued to ruin her life. She's moved on and now he's trying to make a buck off her name yet again. I hope nobody buys his book and it ends up in the dumpster behind his publisher's office where it belongs.

12. Marry to kill rumors? Ok, if that's your thing, do you. But why scrape the bottom of the barrel?

13. I have to say that some of the statements in this book are hilarious, including that Whitney married HIM to clean up HER image. Her image was fine before she got involved with him. It went in the trash after she started hanging out with him. When it came to light that she was seeing him, everybody was concerned about his effect on her, that she was losing focus on her career, etc. He was the '90s version of KFed.

He also alleges that SHE turned HIM on to coke. If it's true, I find it hard to believe. He was widely known to be a disruptive force in his boy band and known for his rather vulgar-at-the-time onstage antics. (The antics pale in comparison to today's performers, i.e. Akon ,etc. but still.) That doesn't necessarily make him a cokehead but it's not like Whitney was trashing hotel rooms or appearing incoherent onstage back in those days.

He also says that he "only" gave in to the groupies that threw themselves at him "a few" times, as if his infidelity wasn't all that bad considering how bad it COULD have been.

He's a joke. He's writing a book because he's broke and doesn't have Whitney's royalties to sponge from anymore.
