I'm glad she's doing this, though I enjoyed BBB too. lol.

I hope she hasn't ruined her voice beyond repair.

Saw Waiting TO Exhale the other night and she was beautiful & talented. WHat has happened to her over the past several years can in some part be blamed on him. Hopefully, she will come back and blow us away again.

Reports: Whitney Houston faces foreclosure

NEWARK, New Jersey (AP) -- Whitney Houston's New Jersey mansion is slated to be sold at a sheriff's sale because she is more than $1 million behind on the mortgage and taxes have not been paid this year, according to reports published Wednesday.

The January 4 sale was scheduled Tuesday by the Morris County Sheriff's Office, the Daily Record of Parsippany reported. The service agent for Chevy Chase Bank, the mortgage holder, sued Houston in June.

Houston's estate comprises two lots, and the sale would be of the lot assessed at $889,300. The adjacent lot is valued at more than $5.6 million, the Daily Record reported. Houston, 43, bought the properties in 1987 for $2.7 million.

Through a secretary, Houston publicist Nancy Seltzer told the newspaper the property was not in foreclosure. A woman who answered the telephone at Seltzer's office on Wednesday said Seltzer was traveling and could not be reached for comment.

Phone messages left after business hours with the service agent, Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc., and the sheriff's office were not returned Wednesday.

Mendham Township is owed about $83,000 in property taxes this year on the 10-acre estate, officials told The Star-Ledger of Newark. The township sent notices after each quarterly deadline was missed, the assessor's office said. The most recent payment was due November 1.

A sale could be averted if Houston reaches a settlement with the service agent, Sheriff's Sgt. Steve Ackerman told The Star-Ledger.

Houston in September filed for divorce from singer Bobby Brown after a 14-year marriage. She is collaborating on a project with her cousin, singer Dionne Warwick.

That's so sad. I hope it all works out well for her. I'm sure she'll find a way to cure the foreclosure before it goes to sale.

If she is indeed working with Clive Davis, he likely will front her the money. She is a true mega talent and that is still somewhere in her. If she cleaned up her act and released a record of ballads and songs like "I'm Every Woman" and then did a HUGE tour with gowns, etc. -- she'd be a sellout. I mean everyone loves a comeback and her's could be legendary. I think people really like her and are saddened by her plight, unlike Michael Jackson who is loathed.

Oh..I think Whitney is pretty loathed.

ITA.

it's the whole cycle in the entertainment world. luckily, she's primed for her return. the public built her up, tore her down, now it's time for a true, big-ass comeback. I've seen/read it a million times before. just like Britney. whatever she does next I really think, if it's timed right and the right music/image, America will love her all over again and this time maybe more.

People need to give her another chance. If she can stay on the straight and narrow and work on getting her voice back, I think her comeback could be huge. I dont loathe her at all. I am rooting for her.

MJ...now that is another story. I cant even stand to look at him or hear his voice anymore.

PsychCat · #28 11-17-2006, 08:26 PM

About frickin' time!!

Will be interesting to see if she truly does "get clean" and what she has to say about all the public junk. If she will "own" it and what she will do with it now.
She'll get all the "divas" (so sorry to see such a fine word diluted by the likes of the wannabees out there today)... around her and make it "hip" to be all Whitney again.
Not like ANY of those folks have a clue about reality anyway......

Should we all place our bets now on when the "Oprah" interview happens??

I cant stand her. I think she's full of herself. In the beginning when she did "I wanna dance with somebody" and similarly catchy tunes, I loved her. When I started reading that she would get attitude at people (dont you know who I AM?) and even getting violent a la Naomi Campbell, I gave up on her. I laffed at her hanging on to Bobby Brown as if he was some sorta PRIZE when good GAWD people--he's a JOKE! Nope, dont like her at all. wouldnt buy her music and about the kindest thing I could say is I hope she has a successful recovery so she can be a decent mom to her girl. other than that?

Whitney WHO??????
