THE ROUND UP: WHITNEY GETS CUSTODY & LIL KIM SIGNS BOOK DEAL

bb.jpg

Whitney & Bobby’s divorce was approved yesterday in a California court room and will become final on April 24th. The judge awarded Nippy with custody and she made sure to tell the judge exactly how she was feeling:

At times dabbing her eyes with a tissue during the court session, Houston testified that she did not require spousal or child support and that Bobbi Kristina could not depend on her father.

“He’s unreliable,” Houston said of Brown, according to the Associated Press. “If he says he’s going to come, sometimes he does. Usually he doesn’t.”

Houston declined to comment to reporters after the hearing. (read more)

It’s kind of sad in a way. I’m going to miss “Being Bobby Brown.” They need to hit Whitney up with her own show now – we all know she has some crazy escapades. Ray J anyone?

LIL KIM TO TALK ABOUT PRISON MEMORIES

lk.jpg Rumor has it that Lil Kim just signed a book deal with St. Martin’s Press. The publishing company has agreed to publish her prison memoirs, and the book should be coming out sometime next year.

In the book, Kimberly Jones speaks on her conviction for perjury in 2005 that led to a stint at the Philadelphia Detention Center – and on the “personal life lessons” she learned about loyalty, law, prison, friendship, humanity and perseverance.

In related news, the rapper is sponsoring an online charity auction. Made possible from her foundation, Lil’ Kim Cares.

On April 12th The National Alliance to End Abuse in partnership with Lil’ Kim Cares Foundation, the James Family Foundation, and the Ludacris Foundation, will raise funds for national programs designed to offer support for our nation’s most underserved. Read more here >>

  7. ms_mac

    It’s one thing to be cursed because you look like your daddy and your daddy is Bobby Brown. It’s another thing to be cursed ’cause you look like both your parents.

    I see Kim can’t get the music thing right so she’s doing a lot of charity. Good for her. At least she’s not being a totally useless pimple on the ass of society (read Foxy Brown).

  8. I knew that it would only be a matter of time before Kim released a “prison book.”

    That picture of Bobby Brown always cracks me up (LOL)!! I wonder what they were looking at. Probably a hightlight reel of all of Bobby’s arrests.

  9. ComplexNDope

    Bobbi Kristina looks horrid. Poor child.

  10. jen

    Nothing is surprising anymore-ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN! AAH MEMORIES OF BOBBY & WHITNEY IN THE ‘WE HAVE SOMETHING IN COMMON’ music video…goodtimes

  11. Moni in Cali

    I wonder how much Whitney has to pay Bobby for alimony. Y’all know that nigga ain’t got no money.

  12. ND Dona

    Eeeew…..Bobby Brown’s taco meat in that picture is utterly disgusting and then he looks cracked out.
    Whitney,you did the right thing by leaving is tired A$$ behind. KUDOS to Whitney!
    Won’t comment on BK cuz she’s still a child!!!!!!

    Lil Kim…NEWS FLASH!!! Anyone who goes to jail learns lessons about those same things (life, prison, law, freedom, friends, perserverance)
    So tell us…..did you drop the soap? LOL

  13. OUCH!!!!

    um nooo…i think bobby christina looks like a young blog creator in the making. catch it quick b4 it either A) flies completely over your head or B) gets snatched from the post by the evil blog trolls.

  14. I’m sure Bobbi Kristina put that blush and MAC deadlady #5 on all by herself, and it looks like she did Nippy’s too.

    All jokes aside, I’m glad she’s on the road to reclaiming her life and her career.

    You can damn near smell the crack on Bobby just by lookin at that pic.

    Kim, keep your book, I’m not interested.

  15. Meatloaf

    I will skim through Kim’s tell-all book in the book store and then put it back on the shelf! I’m waiting for the Knowles family book to drop!

  16. REVIVING THE CL CHAT!!

    at least whitney is getting herself together since bobby is doing a flavor flav show. bobby kristina is a HAM guess a mom working her issues out is better than a raggedy dad

  17. ComplexNDope

    #13, Your post will self destruct.

    I always thought she was adorable & would grow into her looks. But this pic? SHEESH!

  18. Salty

    I’m rollin from these comments. Bobbi kristina looks horrid………rolmao. Ah man, extreme makeover(the show) could do some wonders for the whole fam.

  19. I don’t believe a comeback is in Whitney’s future. In the words of Jay Z
    “Once a good girls gone bad, shes gone forever”

    Lil Kim’s book? I will be reading.

  20. Daphine

    Thank the Lord it’s OVER!

    Whitney can finally get herself together.

    I’m glad kim doing charity. It shows a diffrent side of her.

    @ SOHOLLYWOOD

    Naked Truth was a hot ablum. The promotion lost steam when she went to jail. She is one person who actually grows on every album

  21. hood_shit

    I’m crying on the inside over Bobby and Whitney’s divorce. I so wanted this to work.

    And too, Bobbi Kristina should be signing her name on a boook contract because Lord knows, she has a story to tell.

    Lil Kim can get the fuck outta here with that lame as story she tryna tell. Bitch, put it in a rap and keep it moving.

  22. babyboss

    gawd bobbi christina or how ever u spell her name looks bark! at least this picture aint in or outside a resturant, that girl live em them places

    kim dont need a book she need a album

  23. ms_mac

  24. I FUCK FOR TRACKS

    They acting like home girl went to jail for murder,it is so not serious.Specially her excuse was that stop snitching crap,I can’t believe people believe in that shit.Oh well.

    I don’t see none of Whitney’s look in her daughter,she look like she took that from Bobby,LMAO.I wonder if this child can sing.And whoever says she needs a book deal I SO AGREE WITH YOU!

  25. Genesis

    BOBBYCHRISTINA IS SO UGLY…UGGGH AN EXAMPLE OF 2 PEOPLE WHO SHOULD HAVE NEVER GOTTEN TOGETHER AND MADE A BABY!

  26. ComplexNDope

    It all goes back to that age old math lesson.

    A Positive + A Positive = A Positive

    A Negative + A Negative = A Positive.

    A Positive + A Negative = Bobbi Kristina.

  27. jscene

    Okay, this is not the best picture of Bobbi Kris, but she is definitely not an ugly child. Dog, you guys can be so mean at times to the children. She’s not ugly at all. She’s probably going through that weird stage where your features are all settling, puberty, you know, we all went through it, some of us looked better than others, but I think Bobbi Kris is going to be as beautiful as her mom……as soon as her features all settle into place.

  28. There’s an old saying that says “Don’t talk about how ugly someone’s child is….Your children could end up looking the same way”……

    Just wanted to put that out there.

  29. Cleopatra

    God dont make ugly but close to it lol. Have soe sympathy after all her father is Bobby Brown. Lil Kim I love ya boo boo but your story aint nothin new I havent heard from my cousins and them or lil kesha from down the block.

  30. ITOLDHARPO2BEATU

    THE HELL ARE THEY STARING AT?????

  31. ITOLDHARPO2BEATU

    LOL…THEY ALL LOOK LIKE THEY RAN HALFWAY ACROSS THE AIRPORT ONLY TO END UP AT THE GATE WATCHING THE PLANE TAKE OFF. MY ONLY EXPLANATION FOR THOSE SWEATY HAM FACES STARING OFF INTO SPACE. (SMH)

    #13 IT WAS FUN WHILE IT LASTED. AND DONT U DARE TRY TO OUTSMART THE SYSTEM BY REINVENTING URSELF AND COMING BACK UNDER A DIFF NAME. THAT WILL NEVER WORK! LMAO

  32. Being a Celebrity or child of a celebrity must suck sometimes. The only thing she is guilty of is being born to Bobby and Whitney.

    She’s a beautiful young lady hope she does not let anyone munipulate her into feeling otherwise she will end up looking like Micheal Jackson,Vivica Fox and LiL kim chasing someone else’s vision of beauty and they all FUGGED UP….

  33. AaliyahsBabyDaddy

    I wonder who gets custody of the dealer’s phone number.

    Lil Kim, I see the Surreal Life in your future.

  34. ms_mac

    plenty of ‘regular’ kids got teased like hell when they were young. it’s called LIFE. and more than likely the same ones being all touchy are the same ones that laughed when little timmy was being clowned like hell on the playgroud.

    if bobbi k’s mother and father infused some self-esteem into her she won’t have to worry about what the world thinks. she’ll be too busy doing her. just saying.

  35. jscene

    okay #34 you are crazy! I fell outta my chair laughing.

  36. jscene

    plenty of ‘regular’ kids got teased like hell when they were young. it’s called LIFE. and more than likely the same ones being all touchy are the same ones that laughed when little timmy was being clowned like hell on the playgroud.

    ______________________________________________________
    @Ms_Mac
    Yep, i agree. But the only difference is when the “regular” kids were being teased, it was by other children, their peers. I would think the majority of people on this site are ADULTS, and for adults to say a child is ugly is a totally different thing than when an immature child teases another child. BIG DIFFERENCE! And that’s not called “Life”, it’s called “BEING MEAN”. And its so unncessary. Can we at least wait until she grows up to see how she’ll look?! Then if you still feel the same way, oh well. She should have thick skin by then like the rest of us. Just saying.

  37. BAM BAM

    Bobby “Hold It, Now Hit It” Brown looks like he just took a fresh blast in that pic.

    I’m feelin mighty sad, but relieved for Whitney. Bring it back, boo-boo.

    I want L’il Kim to beat me lovely.

  38. BAM BAM

    @#26 COMPLEXNDOPE

    (?)

    Damn, you just made me feel all stoopid and shyt. LOL.

  39. Divakai

    thankyou #33 Glad someone has some common sense. GEESH give the lil girl a break! I dont think that shes ugly, and she certainly doesnt need long silky hair,light skin, and a pencil straight nose to fit in.
    Shes the product of 2 african american parents ,and she has african american features like alot of us! I’d much rather see alil girl comfortable in her beautiful black skin than trying desperately to conform to others standards of beauty! She is who she is . As far as the makeup goes How many of you tried to do your own makeup as a teen or preteen, only to receive similar results. Let her grow. When she reaches the age where shes really ready to wear makeup at least she has a mom who can afford to have it done professionally for her! ;lol Not too long ago yall were talking shyt about her weight, as if none of you guys went through those awkward childhood /teen years with the baby fat! Now shes shed that and started to slim down nicely and ya still talking shyt! I wonder how you guys look, and what ya childhood pics looked like!(pimples,acne, braces, f8cked up thick bifocals,outdated clothing,etc)talking about Bobby Kris like that Shyt I even wonder what some of your children will look like when you have them,lol . Be careful what ya say , because ya might really be in for a surprise when ya push ya child out in the delivery room! lol

    As far as LIL Kim goes glad to see shes lending time to worthwhile charities ,but ya have to wonder if this is an effort to clean up her image (I mean that always good) but I m sayin. generate soem publicity for her! Then ya have the book:) Great she singed a book deal( and Im sure she could use the money) but can she tell us any more than we what we have already heard about the whoel case,trial ,jail stint,loss of friendship and betrayel that shes already told in interviews , and that we have heard from the media!

  40. GLAD THE COURT RULE IN WHITNEY FAVOR ALSO LIL KIM WRITING A BOOK. Is it me or she need money and publicity.

  41. ComplexNDope

    A Negative. But as I said in my previous post. I think she’s adorable. She’ll grow into her looks. That pic isn’t a good look though.

  42. ms_mac

    Jscene,
    I hear you and I’m not saying people should or shouldn’t call her ugly. but when it all comes down to it people are going to have their opinions. and you’re right, kids pick on other kids and that’s fair. but this is a forum where (hopefully) grown people lash out at unknown celebrities becuase they can and because it’s encouraged {i doubt that pic wasn’t specially selected to get a point across}.
    i almost guarantee that half the people calling her ugly online wouldn’t call her that to her face. not saying it’s right or wrong but you can’t condemn someone for expressing themselves in a forum where they are encouraged to express themselves in that way.

    Let me just say this: if people are wrong for calling a child “ugly” or other names, the ulitmate decision and possible “punishment” doesn’t rest with you so don’t waste time on those people. All good and bad things come when they are due. and beleive me, adults do much worse things to kids than call them names on a blog. smoking crack in their presence is one of them. Feel me?

  43. Soliana

    Whitney brought herself to HELL and back and still has her voice.

    Lil Kim releasing a book? Ha! She should release a book all about her Plastic Surgery. She could turn that into a damn Novel.

  44. I FUCK FOR TRACKS

    Well, its the world we live in today,people are opt to say what they want regardless right or wrong.Thats life.People are always going to hear the negative and the positive.This is the internet though no need to catch feelings.I’m pretty sure this girl don’t give a damn about what people say about her.But kids do get tease everyday,but I know for a fact that when it gets to the boiling point she can lash at somebody (Columbine for an example)

  45. new yorker

    @ divakai
    come on now, yes there might be african-americans with those features but it’s more about the combination of those features than the features themselves. her face just doesn’t look right and though she’s going to grow and her face will change, it can’t change that much. i look a lot like i did when i was 11. and she is wearing make-up right now so that whole “when she gets ready to wear makeup” thing doesn’t work. it’s not mean to say she’s not pretty. ugly might be a harsh word so i might not go that far but she just isn’t pretty and i don’t think she ever will be.

    and no one said she needed light skin, long silky hair, and a pencil thin nose to fit in. angela bassett looks aa but she’s gorgeous. she doesn’t have the things you mentioned but she looks good b/c she looks good

  46. calmsensual1

    damn why does bobbina (whatever her name is) have on so much damn makeup, shes too young. isnt she like 13?

  47. Ms. G

    Is it me or does BobbiKristina look like a darker Christina Milian with a bigger nose in this pic?

    Or do I need new glasses? (LOL)

  48. msblacknasty1

    y dey showing dat nappy hair on bobbys chest? bobbi kris shud have gotten custody of her parents cause neither one of them is capable of takin care of her. lolol all dat dam makeup on dat 13 yr olds face. sum folks lololol ewww greasy lookn. lil kim = NEXT

  49. SassyTeri

    Why talk about someone’s looks anyway? It’s always been stupid to me because no one decides what they look like. Just saying.

  50. Asentha

    I’m glad Whitney doesn’t want or need spousal support from Bobby. His broke ass couldn’t even come up with money for his other kids, or bail money to keep his dumb ass outta jail!

    I wish Whitney and her daughter the best!

  51. devilicious

    Is it me or does that little girl look like a dark skinned version of Eve?

  52. bertrand

    lil kim looks good , and almost every body does charity , luda , monigue , and beyonce , will be at the same thing , and b list she is estimated to be worth 300 million dollars rich , she got 2 movies coming up and there pics of her leaving her studio , i hear album coming .

  53. yes

    they really went through with it….:(

  54. Ms_VA

    #51 you right we don’t get to choose what we look like. It’s like drawing straws…but it’s funny as hell to laugh at the mafukka that got that short azz straw…lmao I think she’s cute though. She has Whitney’s eyes.

  55. I DIDN’T EVEN KNOW THEY WERE IN A CUSTODY BATTLE OVA BOBBY CHRISTINA, PO CHRISTINA, WHAT A PAIR TO HAVE AS PARENTS. WHITNEY KNEW BOBBY WASN’T DEPENDABLE WHEN SHE MARRIED HIZ BROKE AZZ, NOW SHE MESSING WITH ANOTHER BROKE ONE, BELIEVE IT’S THE DRUGS………BET KIM WANT COVER FOR ANOTHER NEGRO,LMAO, DUMBAZZ………

  56. Tata

    I’m here in Whitney’s defense. I saw the pictures in the L.A. Times of her leaving the courthouse yesterday. CL’s picture does her current look no justice. She looks the best she has in years. Bobbi Kristina is another story. She’s gonna need a priest to exorcise the ugly outta her.
