Bobby Brown: Whitney Houston was Bisexual!

The Bobby Brown Accusation Tour has taken a new and unexpected stop.


Earlier this week, the artist sat down for an interview with 20/20, telling the news program that his daughter’s estranged boyfriend, Nick Gordon, was responsible for her death.


Yes, Brown called Gordon a murderer.



Actually, Brown called Gordon a double murderer.


“I know exactly what happened to my daughter. The same thing that happened to my daughter is what happened to Whitney,” Brown said in the interview, making a clear reference to Gordon by adding:


“There’s only one person who was around on both occasions.”


Now, Brown has moved on from alleging that Nick Gordon is a killer to stating that Whitney Houston was a bisexual.


He even cites a relationship she carried on with Robyn Crawford, the singer’s long-time assistant and close friend.


“I know,” tells Us Weekly of the late star’s romance with Crawford.


“We were married for 14 years. There are some things we talked about that were personal to us.”


Houston and Crawford met way back when they were both teenagers and worked at a community center in East Orange, New Jersey,.


Crawford later became Houston’s assistant and creative director, traveling the world with the iconic artist.


In his new book, Every Little Step, Brown also asserts that Houston was bisexual.


“I’m a man and she was attracted to me!” he tells the tabloid here. 



The rumor of Houston and Crawford carrying on a lesbian affair has been broached in the past, but Brown says Whitney kept it a secret because her family would have been against it.


In 2013, Cissy Houston told Oprah that it “absolutely” would have bothered her if her child was gay.


“I really feel that if Robyn was accepted into Whitney’s life, Whitney would still be alive today,” Brown says. “She didn’t have close friends with her anymore.”


So now Brown is blaming Gordon AND Whitney’s mother for Whitney’s death.


He’s a class act.

Brock Turner Case Sparks Response from Girls Cast

The cast of Girls has a lot to say about sexual assault, airing their feelings in a new video. 


The footage below includes Lena Dunham, Allison Williams, Jemima Kirke and Zosia Mamet.


It was created following the Stanford rape case that has dominated social media in recent weeks. 



As a quick refresher: Brock Turner was given just a six month sentence for sexually assaulting a drunk woman outside a party last January.


She was unconscious and the incident only came to an end because Turner got caught in the act.


Turner"s father then blamed it on "binge drinking" and called it "20 minutes of action." 


"We may star on Girls together, but that doesn"t mean we always agree," says Kirke early on. 


The video also features the stars making several jibes at each other. 


But it turned serious from there, given the subject matter.


They read out concering facts about from the CDC about sexual assault. 


After that, they showed that even though they have differences, they can still be a strong force. 


"Don"t avoid the hard conversation," pleads Allison. 


They want the world to know that victims can be strong and that people shouldn"t avoid listening to the ordeal. 


"Just being there makes it better," continues Dunham. 


Dunham even commented about it being the first time that four white women are accurately representing something.


She does have a point. A funny one. 


The video is very powerful and you should totally watch it. 


Girls recently concluded Season 5 on HBO, and the final season kicks off early next year. 


The video has gone viral already with the cast receiving a lot of praise for taking a stand.

CMT Music Awards 2016: List of Winners!

The winners are in for the 2016 CMT Music Awards, and one popular country star in particular made history on this Wednesday night.



Nominated three times, Carrie Underwood won trophies for Performance of the Year and Female Video of the Year for “Smoke Break.”


Underwood lost Video of the Year to Tim McGraw’s “Humble and Kind,” but still holds the record for most Video of the Year wins with six.


Carrie also now has 16 trophies, more than any other artist in CMT Awards history since the show debuted in the summer of 2005.


“I want to thank you guys for coming out and supporting country music on tour,” Underwood said, accepting Performance of the Year.


“God bless you guys. We’ve spent the first part of the year on the road and it’s just been so wonderful to see so many people come out.”


“I know I speak for everybody out there – all of us artists who say you guys are the reason that we get to do what we get to do.”


Other big winners of the night included Thomas Rhett, Chris Stapleton, Little Big Town and Blake Shelton, the CMT Social Superstar.


Seriously, that is a real award voted on by fans.


“CMT’s Social Superstar – that’s not what I was going for, but what the hell!” the 39-year-old Voice coach said of the honor.


“I have a few drinks and get on Twitter once in a while,” Shelton added. “I didn’t know you could get paid for that, but damn!” 


Here’s the list of winners from the 2016 CMT Awards:


Video of the Year: Tim McGraw, “Humble and Kind”

Mariah Carey: When Will She Marry Marry James Packer?

Mariah Carey is getting married to James Packer… maybe. If she can find the time.


The 46-year-old singing sensation had a chat with Sharon Osbourne for Entertainment Tonight this week, addressing plans about her future. 


Will it include a wedding?



Maybe, but Carey said she has “a lot on my plate” these days.


Her professional plate, she means. Not her personal plate… or else we’d be close to hearing wedding bells.


Surely, if she was serious about the whole thing she would pick a date and work her schedule around it. 


Even if that meant pushing it a bit further down the line. 


It kind of raises questions about whether everything is going well between the singer and her VERY rich fiance. 


If you plan on getting married, you get married. You don’t get all sketchy about it. 


Could there be trouble in paradise?


Might it be down to Nick Cannon refusing to sign divorce papers?


Yes, word came out earlier this week that Cannon was flat out refusing to sign the divorce papers. 


This could very well be preventing any potential union between Carey and James Packer. 


It is pretty odd that he’s so against signing the papers because it’s preventing both parties from moving on from the failed relationship. These two seemed to get along very well for exes.


There’s also the possibility that this is all a ruse to get people to tune into her eight-part E! reality series, Mariah’s World.



Shows on E! rely heavily on constructed drama. It’s the home of Keeping Up With The Kardashians, after all.


It hasn’t made us any more excited for the show and viewers will probably be furious if the show has Cannon refusing to sign the divorce papers all season long. 


Carey thinks she’s GLAAD’s most famous celebrity, so expect similar comments about her being the most famous person in reality TV.
