I just do not want to believe the National Enquirer story about Bobby and Whitney’s daughter, Bobbi Kristina, snorting cocaine. But, how many of are not shocked? Could it be that Bobby and Whitney passed their junkie habits to their child? If they did, shame on them. According to Straight From the A.com, Whitney banned her daughter from My Space because photos of the then 14 year old surfaced smoking weed and drinking. Then, last year, photos surfaced on the Internet of Bobbi Kristina partying it up with friends. I just dismissed them as a teen being a teen. Since the latest round of photos of Bobbi badly behaving have surfaced, I can am trying to draw line between socialization and personal responsibility. True to the form of an addict, she even has the excuse-making attitude down pat. Bobbi Kristina claims in a statement released March 3 (coincidently her 18th birthday) that she was set up by an ex-boyfriend who was bitter over their breakup. Let me get this straight, he told you to pose for the camera acting like you are sniffing lines of a white powdery substance? I will pray for that child.
M.I.A. Mo’Nique
I know there were many African Americans who were upset with the lack of black talent recognized in the Oscar nominations. Word is that Mo’Nique failed to show up to the gala as a form of protest – or was it over money? In a statement to USA Today, Mo’Nique’s husband, Sidney Hicks, said his was filming episodes of The Mo’Nique Show. Online sources are saying she skipped the Oscars because she did not get paid to appear on the Oscars. If the latter is true, she was wrong.
Hard times
It is only three months into 2011, and singer Christina Aguilera has found herself in a heap of embarrassment – jacking up the national anthem at Super Bowl XLV, falling down at the Grammy’s and now this! TMZ is reporting that the singer’s friends are asking the singer to check into rehab after her and her new beau, Matt Rutler, were arrested in West Hollywood on March 1 for DUI. That is not what a girl wants!
