Stevie on Whitney

[michelej1]

Yes, I know that is the general impression. I tend to think that because her mom traveled so much, singing on the road, that maybe Whitney did not have that stable an upbringing and might have had more in common with Brown all along., despite surface appearances.

Stevie is something else with her television viewing habits. LOL " Being Bobby Brown." Stevie are you going to tell us about the Kardashians next? Let me not be a hypocrite. I can tell all the Kardashians apart and I never could differentiate between Eunice, Pat, Kathleen and Jean Kennedy. I always knew Rosemary because she was overweight, but otherwise ....

Really?! Oh, I know all those Kennedys! I used to could even name all of them -- in birth order -- and their children. Why? I don't know. I had a book with the family tree and I've always been good with memorization. Ah, childhood pasttimes...

But, come on - anyone could spot Eunie's jawline from 100 miles!

No don't damage my street cred. I do know all the Kennedys' DOBs and their children. But if you laid out pictures of the girls, I am not going to be able to tell the sisters apart unless it is an early photo and Jean is still small. Then I know her. Once they are women, I cannot tell them apart. But I know all their kids. I don't know the grand kids though. I know the names of Maria Shrivers kids, but have no idea what they look like.

But actually I collect for the Kennedys, the Lindberghs and our very own knuckleheads and I love EMK very, very much.

This reminds me: I was laughing about Stevie's letter to Kanye West, but when Ted Kennedy died, I wrote a six paged letter to Audrey Niffenegger and it was all about moments I think survive in time, that I think don't pass really, but keep existing on some plane. I am not sure how much longer I will be able to elude the asylum, truth be told.

Oh, you lost me there. I didn't keep up with Maria, Caroline - that generation. I know Caroline has a daughter named Rose and a son named John and maybe a daughter named Tatiana? I'm rusty. But, I can tell Eunice, Jean and Pat apart.

Stevie has too much time on her hands.

You know Stevie probably consumes a lot of media while she's on the road, because they have a lot of time to kill when they're touring. I was thinking that she may see just as much tv when she's working than when she's not.

Get on the internet, Stevie. That'll keep you busy!

Whitney admitted that she was doing drugs before Bobby and he started doing the hard stuff after they got together.

I am pretty sure that she had done drugs long before she met Bobby Brown. That's what Jennifer Holliday said during interview after Houston's death. And I remember when Whitney said in the early 90's that "she is no Diana Ross" -a classy and elegant diva... Sadly she was right.
