Cissy Houston Hints Family Won't Use Heroic Measures To Save Bobbi Kristina
Pat Houston is now sharing the controls with Bobby Brown on what to do with Bobbi Kristina ... and it appears a rift may be brewing, because a Houston family member strongly indicates she does not want to use heroic measure to save Bobbi.
As TMZ reported ... a judge made Bobby and Pat co-guardians a few days ago, which gives them joint responsibility for Bobbi Kristina's care. As we first reported, Bobbi Kristina is suffering from irreversible brain damage and the prospects of getting better are slim to none, barring a miracle.
Pat says she and Bobby are working as a family to make the right decisions, but there seems to be a clear division. Cissy told "Entertainment Tonight," "She's not gone yet, but you know, whatever the Lord decides, I'm ready for her ... I have nothing to do with that. That's His job."
Bobby, on the other hand, has made it clear he will do whatever it takes to keep his daughter alive, including using heroic measures if she begins to slip away. Some member of the Houston family have strongly indicated they are not inclined to use such measures.
If Bobbi Kristina's condition begins to deteriorate and if Pat and Bobby can't reach an agreement, it will probably be left in the hands of a judge to decide the fate of Whitney Houston's daughter.
The 2 families have been largely at odds since Bobbi Kristina entered the hospital.

Game reached out to him after seeing a photo online of Capone and Thug together. He says Game didn't realize Capone was down with Thug ... and that opened the door to a summit.
Capone says he got Game and Thug on the phone and explained ... they both needed to get back to making music, and not threats. Capone says he told them they needed to look at the big picture and call off the dogs before someone got hurt.
They got the message. Shortly after the call, Game confirmed the war is over.

Mariah Carey Nick Cannon Diss Song ... NOT About Nick

Jeremy Jackson I Stabbed a Gangbanger with a Clown Tattoo ... In Self Defense
Former "Baywatch" star Jeremy Jackson was arrested for stabbing a man, but he says it was self defense in the midst of a wild party.
Jeremy was jailed Saturday, after cops nabbed him for allegedly burglarizing an Airbnb. Police say during the arrest they realized he fit the profile of a man who stabbed a guy the day before.
Jeremy tells TMZ, he rented an Airbnb and threw a party with some women. During the shindig, he says a guy showed up, beat him up and robbed him to the tune of $2,300.
This is where it gets bizarre. Jeremy says one of the women said she knew a guy who could help him get the money back, so Jeremy told her to get him over STAT. He says the guy showed up but then turned on him and tried robbing him as well.
Jeremy says the guy pulled a gun, and in self defense he pulled a buck knife from his jeans and stabbed the guy in the stomach area and arms. The guy dropped the gun and ran.
Jeremy identifies the guy as a Canoga Park gangbanger with a clown tattoo on his face.
As for the burglary ... Jeremy says he went back to the Airbnb the day after the stabbing to retrieve his Gucci sunglasses and some other items and had to break in to get them. That's when the cops were called.

Nicki Minaj My Anaconda Don't Want None Unless You Got Yarmulkes, Son!
Put a bunch of hormone-filled 13-year-old Jewish boys in a room and give them one wish and it would probably be having Nicki Minaj show up at a bar mitzvah ... and this weekend, that wish was granted.
13-year-old Matt Murstein's millionaire financier dad called in a few favors, and dropped a few shekels to get the "Anaconda" rapper to help the kid usher in adulthood Saturday night at the Pierre Hotel in NYC.
We're told Nicki performed 7 songs and stuck around for a meet and greet where the boy, sorry ...the MAN made a pass at her! Check out Saul Suave's one-liner to Nicki in the video.
Aside from Nicki ... Bob Costas, Patrick Ewing and John Starks made cameos via video -- and Matt got to hang with baseball legend Hank Aaron and NY Governor Andrew Cuomo.
Matt's pickup line obviously didn't work on Nicki -- she's no Tyga -- but you gotta appreciate the guy's chutzpah.

P.J. Williams DUI Case Dismissed ... Over Dash Cam Fail
Top NFL draft prospect P.J. Williams -- a projected 1st round pick -- is officially OFF THE HOOK in his DUI case ... and it's all because the police dash cam MISSED a significant portion of the arrest.
As we previously reported, the ex-Florida State University cornerback was busted on April 3rd -- after cops say he appeared to be hammered while driving his friends out of a McDonald's parking lot in Tallahassee at 3 AM.
The 21-year-old admitted he had been drinking several hours earlier in the evening -- but insisted he was NOT drunk when he got behind the wheel.
He did NOT submit to a breathalyzer or a blood test ... so cops were relying heavily on the dash cam video to prove he was in no shape to drive.
But according to the Leon County District Attorney's Office ... "significant portions of the DUI investigation were not captured on video because of the positioning of the police car."
We're told the most important part of the arrest -- the field sobriety test -- was a casualty of the dash cam mishap.
Ultimately, prosecutors decided the case against Williams was weak without the footage -- so the case was tossed.
