She told Oprah, "She was just a kid - 13, learning to be a young woman - and I'd give her bits and pieces, but that Internet and that computer, man... She was like, 'Mum, did you see dad?' And she saw him with (other women), just crazy things, and she said, 'Oh no, no, divorce him, just let him go.'
"She said, 'You stay here with me, you love me, you take me to school, you do things with me; you don't just play me, you don't lie to me, you're there for me. When he comes and tells me he's coming, he never comes.' She was far more intelligent that I had ever imagined."
When your daughter is convincing you to leave her father you know that relationship is bad news! Whitney finally left Bobby's broke useless a** in 2007.

Whitney, who is clearly still in love with Bobby, talked to Oprah about their drug use, troubled relationship and their daughter, while Bobby tries to "forget" the day he met her.
Looking back at the first time he met her at the Soul Train Music Awards Bobby says it's "one of the things I try to forget."
"I think we corrupted each other," Brown, 40, tells The Insider. "I don't think she hurt me or I hurt her. I just think we had a 14 year marriage that had its ups and downs and not many people understood it."
On his past drug use he said, "I used an awful lot you know and I cant take that back." He goes on to reveal that his drug of choice was cocaine, saying, "It's a powerful drug."
When asked what made him turn to drugs, Brown says, "I think I was bored. I had just gotten married and things weren't right. Unfortunately, I turned to alcohol and drugs."
Oprah's two-part exclusive interview with Whitney continues tomorrow. Did you watch Whitney's interview on Oprah? What did you think of it?

In the interview, that Oprah calls "the most anticipated music interview of the decade," Whitney confessed that she was emotionally abused by ex hubby Bobby Brown.
"He spit on me, in my face" and left me "very hurt, very angry," Whitney told Oprah. "But he got hit on the head three times by me," Whitney added.
Whitney said that she finally realized how bad the relationship was when her mother intervened. "[My mother] said, 'I'm not losing you to the world. I'm not losing you to Satan. ... I want my daughter back.'"
Her mother added, "[My mother] said, 'If you move, Bobby, they're gonna take you down. Don't you make one move.' And he stood there like -- he was scared."
Whitney added, "He had such hate in his eyes for me, because I loved him so much." She even recalled Bobby cutting her head off in pictures and drawing 'evil eyes' on their bedroom walls with spray paint. Psycho!
The show will air later this afternoon. It's a season premiere you won't want to miss!

Norfolk Judge Christina Harms ordered Brown arrested the next time the singer is in Massachusetts.
Brown was supposed to appear in court on June 29th because he’s fallen behind $45,000 in child support payments for his teenage children he has with ex-girlfriend Kim Ward.
Talk about a deadbeat dad! And you would think Bobby had learned his lesson with this. He was imprisoned for four days in 2007 for failing to make the payments! Dude needs to get it together!
He is supposed to pay $5,000 in child support per month for the children. That means Bobby is 9 months behind! That’s going to be tough to catch back up on!

It’s common knowledge that Whitney had a pretty volatile relationship with Bobby Brown for many years, but despite her misfortune in her love life, she doesn’t want Rihanna to make the same mistakes she did.
The National Enquirer reports, “When Whitney heard what had happened to Rihanna, she was close to tears. Right then she knew she had to contact her and urge her to get out of the relationship while she can. She made it clear that Rihanna should dump Chris.”
Whitney also made a public statement saying, “Don’t make the same mistakes I did. Whenever you let your heart rule your head, you are bound to run into trouble.”
Wow. That’s probably the most succinct statement we’ve ever heard Whitney make. She may have been through the ringer, but she seems to know bad relationships when she sees them.
We think this was a really nice gesture for Whitney to reach out to Rihanna like this.

According to the Chicago Sun-Times, Whitney and Bobby have been seen several times in the Atlanta area, looking very coupley. The paper also says the pair’s daughter Bobbi Kristina is eager to see them reunite.

In his new tell-all book Bobby Brown: The Truth, the Whole Truth and Nothing But..., Brown insists that he had been with "half the industry," which included Madonna.
He writes, "By the time I reached my third single on the Don't Be Cruel album, I was one of the biggest stars in the world. You know what that means. With success comes the women! A wise man once told me that. At this time, "I probably had dated half of the industry, including Madonna."
"I met Madonna early in my career. She used to open up shows for New Edition in New York at the beginning of her career, so running back into her and getting to know her better at the height of my success was like a reunion. The list goes on from the who's who to the flavor of the month."
Now that’s an odd pairing! Madonna is super health conscious while Bobby is all about being a crackhead. Whatever the case was, we're just glad it didn't work out. Bobby and Whitney were always our favorite junkie couple.

Blah blah blah always placing the blame on someone else! Bobby Brown claims that his ex wife Whitney Houston is the one who drove him to do drugs.
"I never used cocaine until after I met Whitney. Before then, I had experimented with other drugs, but marijuana was my drug of choice," Brown writes in "Bobby Brown: The Truth, the Whole Truth and Nothing But," out next month.
"At one point in my life, I used drugs uncontrollably. I was using everything I could get my hands on, from cocaine to heroin, weed and cooked cocaine."
Wasn't Whitney clean before Bobby? She became a crackhead because of him!

Bobby Brown has officially lost it! Yesterday he was admitted to the hospital after he felt severe chest pains. His rep even confirmed that Brown had suffered a “mild heart attack.”
Bobby was even videotaped by some paparazzi in his “death bed” sending out a message to all his loved ones.
Later in the day however, the weirdo told Associated Press Radio, "None of it's true…I don't know where the heart attack thing came from - I'm just fine."
It doesn't end there!
Although his rep confirmed the heart attack Brown said that his hospital visit was just routine. "I did go to the hospital, to just get a checkup, get everything tested out so that I could go on this tour, and everything is fine…The doc gave me a clean bill of health."
Maybe Bobby Brown and his rep should communicate together before sending out messages to the media. Now we just think their crazy. Crack is whack!
