‘ROUND THE WAY: BOBBY BROWN LEAVES WHITNEY HOUSTON’S FUNERAL EARLY + RELEASES STATEMENT

He probably didn’t know,and he brought his wife and kids,at one time his kids were whitney step kids,so im pretty sure they wanted to be there to,but not letting the man sit by his child is foul,they was wrong for that.

HIS kids knew WHITney as a mother and they were also a support team for him for he didnt have her family for support

Indeed Whitney was their stepmother just because people get divorce does not mean the family ends. Thank you for your statement Bobby…we love you too

Um actually many of yall are not getting it! This funeral was about Whitney. It was a homegoing service for Whitney. Not a “life in the day Being Bobby Brown”. GTFOH. He knew how many invitations he received. Why come with four times that? AND THEN get mad because “you and your crew” cant sit with Krissy (which is what Nippy called her)? He wanted to be seen. He wanted to make today somehow about him. And everyone who was there CLEARLY saw that and even tweeted about it at one point. People are judging the family based on what Bobby’s publicist said. There are always THREE sides to a story. Your side. My side. And WTF actually happened.

AND TOP OF THAT – he was 20 minutes late! Come on now. Dont tell me how you (the public) are feeling. You are speaking on emotion. Be logical for a second and you’ll realize how you sound. You cant be 20 minutes late for a funeral and bring four times the allocated invitation and then get up from you were seated so that you and your entourage can sit with the one person the entire world is worried about. As her father, he should mainly be ready to be there for her outside of the funeral because that is when she will need him the most. He should have stayed and paid respects to his late wife and been ready to console Krissy everyday after this day. Today is not the only day to sit next to her. Talk to her, walk with her, and guide her for the rest of her life. He is so selfish IMO because I just think he wanted the world to see that he was next to her on this day.

@ Lane… That man has been trying to get to his daughter to help her with this since day one. They wouldn’t let this man see his baby at ALL! When Krissy was rushed to the hospital the family wouldn’t let him get to her. When she went back to the hotel, the body guards told him it was the family’s order not to let him in her room… NOW THAT’S SOME SELFISH ISH RIGHT THERE… You talking about Bobby was trying to make this about him when he was ONLY trying to reach out to his daughter. It was totally unfair the way they treated him and his kids. Bobby don’t just have 2 other kids that was apart of Whitney’s life. ALL OF HIS OTHER kids knew her as a step mom and had a relationship. Whitney wouldn’t have wanted this. Yes they are not together anymore but they still got alone GREAT! Krissy was alway tweeting about her parents, how they get alone so well and how they still act silly together. She posted pictures of them having dinner here recently while cutting up & laughing. Bottom line, they treated that man like an outsider… Not as family. He will always be “FAMILY” to them because he’s Bobbi Kristinia’s dad. And so what if he was “20 mins” late… Hell, that was a 4 hour funeral! Trust and believe there were LOTS of people late. Hell, Aretha didn’t even show up and that’s her God Mom… If they have something against Bobby Brown, during this situation was not the time to show it. Wrong Move Houston’s!!! I know he was hurting too. We all know he still loved Whitney because he spent most of his life with this woman. He was hurting not only because of the death of my beautiful song bird Whitney Houston, but for the pain of his child.

Maybe she didnt want to him! Have ya’ll ever thought about that? Bobby Kristina is EIGHTEEN YEARS OLD! I wish my grandmother would tell me that as an adult (legally in the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA) that I can’t see my father when my mother just has passed away. STOP -I REPEAT – STOP trying to act as if this ENTIRE family is a monster and is just doing poor lil Bobby Brown so bad! That girl is 18 years old. Nothing has stopped her from seeing him before and Im pretty sure nothing is stopping him now. The family cant lock her under a staircase like Harry Potter and tell him he can only send letter via an owl! Perhaps she’s not ready to see him and as I stated before, he should mainly be ready to be there for her outside of the funeral because that is when she will need him the most. He should have stayed and paid respects to his late wife and been ready to console Krissy everyday after this day. Today is not the only day to sit next to her. Talk to her, walk with her, and guide her for the rest of her life.

WANT TO SEE HIM* There was a typo. But YOU KNOW what I am saying so dont play with me.

LOL!! LOL!! Lane, you are funny as hell. You got me over here rolling! But yeah, I do understand your point and Im sure she don’t know that’s whats going on. She loves that raggedy man’s dirty draws. Just go read her tweets and review her picture. Yes she is 18 and what they have to realize is that’s the only parent she has left now. Bless her lil heart. Im 36 years old and I would just flatline myself if something was to happen to my mom. Really tho, I am not making excuses for him… Im just saying they could have handled things a little better when it came to him and his kids. It was time for all of them to embrace each other with open arms.

I understand what youre saying also. I was a little upset because people keep making it sound like Whitney’s family is so cruel but I highly doubt they would do something like that. Im also upset that Bobby decided to leave when Krissy needed him the most. But its not too late so I just wish people would get over that situation and simply continue to pray for the family.

I agree with Lane, the furneral was abt Whitney and if he wanted to sit by Krissy he wouldn’t brought nine ppl with him. The seats with Krissy was reserved for Bobby and his kids, nt his friends and wife or whom ever. I feel for Bobby, but at the same time Whitney and Krissy was the priority and seats should nt have been an issue or stopped him for paying his respects and being there for his daughter. The Houston honored Bobby with the three seats next to his daughter, they didn’t have to honor HIS EXTRA guest. And they didn’t that was Bobby’s pride.

Lane, I agree with you 200%! I’m also tired of everyone pointing the finger at Whitneys family yet supporting Bobbys actions. He knew prior to arriving to the funeral how many invitations he had and out of respect for everyone else he should have only brought that specific amount of people. And as far as his daughter, I dnt feel bad. She is 18 years old and Im sure the decision to or not to see her father is entirely up to her. At the end of the day I wish everyone nothing but the best. My main prayer is that Whitney made peace with God prior to leaving this world and she will entire the kingdom of heaven. Any foolishness or negativity needs to be put to the side and replaced with LOVE, SUPPORT and Thankfulness. Tomorrow isnt promised to any of us so we should all be devoting as much of our time and energy as possible to making our last days meaningful <3

Bobby Brown is a typical sorry excuse for a man thats all he is. Everyone wants to blame him for Whitney’s downward spiral and they should. Because after his time with Whitney he is now trying to act more sophisticated like he’s leading a better life or something. You have to really be careful who you love because at the end of the day love doesn’t forsake you. Leaving early for what concert? Oh please I hope when he got there there were alot of empty spaces in the crowd because people rather be at home watching Whitney’s funeral ceremony. smh

Sorry……@ Wanna B A Teacher….the show was off the hook, not a empty seat in the place…and yes I am a Whitney fan to the end, I also like Bobby as well…just saying!

This dumb negro brought six extra people and tried to sit in the front row?? He should not have come expecting priority treatment. I’m sick of people talking about his f*ckin rights. They are divorced, he has no rights to anything. There are several people present who can support Bobbi-Kristina. Anyone who has experienced death knows the toughest days are AFTER the funeral. He can support her then.

I don’t know that he introduced her to drugs but I never heard her (Whitney) say Bobby or my husband staged an intervention. He was a drug leach that used her money to get high. Cissy & family don’t like him and I don’t blame them!

@TANYA..He brought his kids with him,there were close to whitney also

I agree. You just don’t know what to believe because when I watched the funeral on CNN at 11:00 Bobby was there outside well before it started and before the camera’s were on inside of the church but the media said he was 20 minutes late. No matter how many people he brought with him HE should have been accommodated. Clearly it is a huge church and it was said that it could hold up to 1500 people and it looked as if the church had more than enough room to sit him and his entourage even if it wasn’t right next to him. We all know Bobby’s history…If he really wanted to make a scene he would have instead he left peacefully.

I agree

We talking about Whitney’s funeral remember, not about Bobby’s oversized ego. Why could he not just honour his late wife even if he was told to sit on the floor? Why does it matter where he sits in the church. Its not about him, its about honouring whitney for the last time and he cant even get that right? SMH

NONAME..The man wanted to sit by his daughter,what’s wrong with bobby sitting by his daughter? They could of let the man sit by his damn daughter,there’s no excuse for that,they was in the wrong not bobby.

I don’t agree with blaming Bobby for her addictions, however I can earnestly say, he supported it and if he loved himself and her the way he should have, he would not have abused it, himself and her. He’s human, and not perfect, and his actions today were not was most appropriate. I been past the drug argument for a long time.

NONAME you are right that this was Whitney’s funeral and it has nothing to do with Bobby’s ego, BUT what you fail to or simply don’t care to realize is BOBBI-KRISTINA is his daughter and he came to support her and grieve. The people with him were his other children who came to support their dad and sister. Bobby and his children were INVITED, but then not accomodated. That’s point being made.

Guys please note that we have only heard Bobby’s version of the story. In any case this might be completely different to what actually happened. Remember there is two sides to every story.

I still stand by my view that Bobby should have kept a cool head until after the funeral. I mean this was a woman he spent a considerable amount of time with. She was part of his life. She will always be due to their daughter.
Personally, i would have bitten my tongue and just go through with the service. Being there for his daughter in a few hours???? I mean he has till forever to do just that..why walk out because u cant see her?

Have you guys considered the fact that may be the daughter was not in the mood to see him?

He should have stayed and payed his last respect to her. Should have

No Name, you are so right. Bobbi Kristina could have very well said that she didn’t want to see him, though I doubt that.. but it is oh so a possibility. If that is the case, Bobby has a lot of work to do, and after walking out of the service like that, if Bobbi Kris didn’t want to see him today, she may not want to see him any time soon now…

This is what I believe. God doesn’t like ugly & how they treated him & his family was UGLY.

She was they’re Ex-Stepmother, they have a new stepmother already.. That’s what happens when a man goes around creating children with numerous women, getting married multiple times. That is what is MOST un-Christian like.

No INVOLVEDFATHER, what’s most un-Christian like is your ridiculous comment. Whitney may have been Bobby’s ex-wife and the other children’s ex-stepmother, but BOBBI-KRISTINA is NOT his ex-daughter nor the siblings ex-sister. No matter how many children Bobby has with multiple women, he’s in their lives and was trying to support his daughter Bobby-Kris in the most difficult time of her young life and some folks decided to play God and interfere with that. You are in no position to pass judgement because you my friend are not GOD – only He has the power to judge and I can only imagine the judgement he would make about your insenstive and unintelligent choice of words in this situation.

First of all, don’t worry about how God will judge me, but unintelligent I am not, nor were my choice of words. I never said Bobby’s children were not Bobbi-Kristina’s siblings, nor did I say she was his ex-daughter. Read everything I said, and gain some understanding before you try to call me out on judging someone. I was not judging Bobby Brown, I was simply commenting on his actions, which have been made public and available for me to see. Please stay in your lane. You don’t want a verbal battle with me, BLKPLAYA9891. I’m guessing you are a Black, PLAYA (LOL) who was born on Sept. 8th of ’91… If so, I am 12 years your elder, so please don’t. Thanks!

INVOLVEDFATHER, I’m not trying to call you in, OUT, or otherwise. So when I spoke about your unwarranted, unnecessary, and unwise choice of words about this situation, my comment comes from the fact that I referenced my comment/reply from a much more reliable source than you, who was actually in the church and saw the incident occur. That would be Rev. Jesse Jackson when he was asked about this incident just after the services ended. By the way, the numbers behind my screename has nothing to do with my age and your THINKING I maybe younger. Know this though, no matter how old I may be, I hold my own in any situation. Bottomline, Bobby’s actions was justified as to not create a scene like he explained, so he wasn’t trying to make it about him. Likewise, I don’t need to engage in a verbal battle with you because in the event you didn’t get the memo, this is also NOT about you.

You’re definitely young. I don’t know what reliable source you think you’re quoting, but I heard what Rev. Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton and everyone else who commented on it said about the situation. My comment obviously went over your head. Just stop while you’re ahead. Don’t make yourself look even more like the fool who’d create a screen name such as yours. Grow up!

InvolvedFather, you should change your name to BitterOldLady because that’s what you sound like. Shut Up!

No we are not family and we didn’t know what transpired between Whitney and Bobby except for what was public the whole world know tat Bobby was jealous of Whitney’s fame and made her life a hell. She rarely spoke out about it but in her interview with Oprah she did mention something to that effect .. Whitney was a kind person. Bobby is a thrash of man.

REAL you are absolutely CORRECT. There should have not been a problem for the children to be moved. You know seats were scarce as long as they were in the house of the Lord they should have not had a problem with moving. I would have stood up on my head just to be there and witness. I love Bobby but he did not have to leave. He should have stayed. He did exactly what the press wanted, something else to talk about.

REAL, Again, he and his children were ALL invited so how many kids he has is irrelevant. They were invited, but then when they arrive, they can’t be accomodated. Rational folks who put their personal feelings about Bobby Brown aside and look at this objectively, it was just WRONG how he was treated.

BLKPLAYA, please sit down somewhere little boy. Bobby Brown was invited +2, not plus all of his illegitimate children.. SMH

Involved, sir or is it really madame, your info is only accurate if you made the Whitney’s funeral arrangements.

I’m inclined to believe the same because I only saw Bobby with his children and not this huge group they keep referencing.

If you were watching the live broadcast, you would have seen all of those people that were with Bobby. I seen them, so I’m pretty sure everyone else could too.

Yes, Bobby Brown on the first row. NOT his 15 other kids!!! There’s not enough space!

He was thinking about his daughter,he wanted to sit by his daughter,but security wouldn’t let him.

…and let the Church say, AMEN!! They let them inside the building, even though he came with more than what was invited, and then he wants to complain about being asked to move? SMH

INVOLVEDFATHER, as Bobby explained, it was security who seated him and his children, so my point is this, he’s family to Bobbi Kristina, his children are family to Bobby Kristina, but there were many sitting around them were not family, just simply invited, why couldn’t they be asked to move.

REAL, grown children or not, they are still Bobby Kristina’s siblings. He and his children were invited so they could’ve been and should’ve have been accomodated. Even Rev. Jesse Jackson who sat in the pulpit with the other clergyman said after the services when asked about the situation with Bobby Brown, that they could have accomodated him better then they did being that he is Bobbi Kristina’s father.

Personal feelings about Bobby aside, what was done to him and his family today was WRONG is all levels depite what one’s personal feeling on him are.

If Bobby Brown was there to support his daughter, he would have come alone or with the +2 that were invited. Simple as that. He wanted to be treated like a King and wanted to be accommodated, in that small church, instead of simply coming to be there for his daughter with Whitney. The other children should have stayed at home with their mother and watched on CNN.

INVOLVEDFATHER, how do you know Bobbi-Kristina didn’t want her siblings there to support her. If you remember just last week when there were reports that Bobbi Kristina was rushed to the hospital shortly after Whitney’s death, her dad cut his tour with New Edition short to rush back to be by his daughter’s side. And before everyone flew back to New Jersey, he explained that Bobby Kris with him and her other siblings until she flew back to New Jersey to be with her mom’s family. I don’t think you would be happen if you were told you couldn’t support a sibling in the most difficult time of his or her life. No matter how it’s said, not everyone at the service was family, but Bobby and his children were family and AGAIN, they were ALL invited like the other guests were.

If they all were invited, then his invitation would not have been +2, now would it. Just stop, because you are missing the point.

Involved….you stop, because I will keep missing your pointless point. Did you receive an invitation, how do you know what the invitation said?

No disrespect to whitney,but she should of treated her self better when she was alive,can’t blame bobby for that.

Whether u believe it or not Bobby is the blame because she tried loved him and try to take the vows seriously. Im not juding…just pointing out the facts that she stated in her interview with Oprah.

I doubt very seriously, that had anything to do with Cissy.

To not allow him near his daughter, I agree, is uncivilized.

He put himself in a situation where he couldn’t be near his daughter, and he LEFT the building altogether. His decision. He was not put out. I’m glad he didn’t act a fool, but he decided to come with more than he was told could. He needs to show her family some respect. Cissy has every right to feel however she wants to feel, but she’s God-Fearing, and I KNOW she is not keeping him away from his daughter. So he needs not to make it appear that way.

How true I totally agree

I agree with you as well. He had the right to sit with the family as someone who was with her for 14 years and the father of her only child. If it did happen, it was disrespectful to Whitney and to Bobbi Chris.

Very well said, but this incident occurred before Bobbi Kristina entered the church. She and her grandmother were still outside of the church according to Rev. Jesse Jackson who saw the incident unfold. And when did leave and when outiside the church, it was then I supposed to was trying to get to Bobbi Kristina I supposed to inform her of what happened, but he was stopped by security.

Bobbie Kristina may be of age, however, if you loose your mom do you realy think she has the time to think who to invite to the funeral. Come on! Her mind is so far away from what’s going. Bobbie could have set in the front near his daughter, but the others should have just found a place to sit….

@ MS.SIMON VERY WELL SAID

So, I’m guessing you would argue that their names should have also been in the obituary. I don’t think so. I would say they’re covered under a host of extended family and friends. No one said Whitney didn’t love his other children. However Whitney didn’t plan this funeral, nor send out the invitations. Her immediate family did, and simply put, space was limited. Bobby didn’t respect that when he showed up with more than +2.

no their name did not need to be mention just like his name was not mention. I guess Whitney had Bobbi-Kristina by herself. her family are wrong period Bobby had 4 other children beside Bobbi-Kristina. She had dinner with him just last month so the family knew she was past the hatred and blaming game. In death we put our differences a side and try to honor the person wishes. Alienated Bobbi-Kristina from her father, brothers, and sister is not the way to go
great service I cried and glad to have her music

When Bobby Briwn dies, ONLY then can he EXPECT ALL HIS kids to sit on the front row.

EGG-ZACK-LEE @ REAL… You got the picture!!

This has nothing to do with all of them sitting on no front row. It is, however, that Bobby explained that security had seated him and everyone with him. Then several minutes after they had been comfortibly seated, they were asked on three separate occasions by that same security, who sat them to begin with, to move. They didn’t seat themselves, security did. AGAIN the folks with Bobby Brown (his children) were all invited.

OmG, SHUT UP BLKPLAYA.. you sound like some angry child of his or something. All of those kids were not invited, nor was any of those other people he had with him. Security was wrong for seating them in other people’s seats, if that’s what they did. I don’t care at this point. What it should have been was, Bobby standing next to Bobbi Kristina, with his arm around her. The other illegitimate children should have been at home somewhere watching from a big screen TV or something!! The church is SMALL, and they INVITED certain people because of it. He is lucky they allowed him on the premises after seeing he’d arrived with more than allowed. Sounds to me like they tried to accommodate him, and he still wasn’t satisfied. He should have followed instructions. Simple as that.

No….INVOLVEDFATHER, you STFU immediately.

INVOLVED, how the hell do you know they weren’t invited, were you at the funeral and/or did you plan it? Again you STFU. In all of the photos and clips that have been shown since the funeral, the only group Bobby had with his were his children and I know it popular to blow it out of proportion as you and other are ATTEMPTING to do, but there were only 4 people, not 15 and as he said, he and his children were invited…..I Believe that. I believe otherwise when you tell that you planned Whitney’s funeral.

STFU you say? How mature of you, BLKPLAYA9891.. I see that I have ruffled your immature feathers obviously. I never said they were not invited, child. My argument is, if they were, then seating would have been available. Meaning more than just 3 seats. I just heard that he was not even invited until Thursday, so that further proves my point why he should not have brought anyone with him. He didn’t respect the family, nor his daughter, and it’s probably best that he left. I also just learned that he lost his mother last month, and his father died on the Sunday following Whitney’s death, so that man is just not thinking straight. He’s in my prayers, and so are you, because you are the one who is clueless. You’ve missed the point every time.

thank you!

I agree it should have been his children not his entire entourage, but like he said they kept asking him to move when security sat them. Maybe they should have move some of the celebrities.

THANK YOU! FINALLY someone with some sense. I thank you INVOLLVEDFATHER for speaking on behalf of the sensible population because obviously many others arent getting it! This funeral was about Whitney. It was a homegoing service for Whitney. Not a “life in the day Being Bobby Brown”. GTFOH. He knew how many invitations he received. Why come with four times that? AND THEN get mad because “you and your crew” cant sit with Krissy (which is what Nippy called her)? He wanted to be seen. He wanted to make today somehow about him. And everyone who was there CLEARLY saw that and even tweeted about it at one point. People are judging the family based on what Bobby’s publicist said. There are always THREE sides to a story. Your side. My side. And WTF actually happened. And I can’t wait for the truth COME FORWARD. Bobby Brown is needs JESUS.

I had a couple typos in there but yall know WTF im saying. Im so VEXED I can hardly articulate. How dare he.

You and your typos are a’ok with me LANE. I’m just glad someone else can see, what many of these people are overlooking. Who gives a flying monkey about any of his illegitimate children at this point. This was not his funeral, it was Whitney Houston’s funeral. He wanted to be treated like a widowed man in mourning, but it wasn’t happening that way. Seems to me that church security attempted to accommodate him and his additional guests, and Bobby was not satisfied when they were asked to move because people had arrived that had invitations. If indeed his guests were invited, then would they not have had seats? Again, I’m disappointed, because as a father to a daughter, with a female I am no longer with, I fully understand what having respect is for her mother’s family. God forbid something were to happen to her, I would be right beside our daughter from start to finish of that service. I know Cissy would not have stood between that. She is God-Fearing, and she knows better!!

Again you are missing the point. The service was by invitation. It is a small church. How likely is it that Bobby Brown was told he could bring 9 people? How likely is it? IF, again if he was told he could bring himself and another 2 people, and instead he brought more than 2, he was disrespectful of the family’s wishes, which includes his daughter. IF, again if, Bobby thought his desire to be inclusive of his children and others, i.e. 8 people, despite what the invitation said, he should be chided for his selfishness. If any of the people with him were adults and knew he only had room for 2 more, they should have graciously bowed out of the attending.

And he was there for her, but as he explained, security would not let him get close to here after the incident inside the church, because as Rev. Jesse Jackson explained in his interview with CNN right after the services, Cissy & Bobby Kristina was not in the church yet when the incident occurred, they were still outside in the cars so they didn’t know what happened. Bobby tried to go see his daughter after the incident and was not allowed to by security. Now if he had caused a major scene, then everyone would be dogging him. He handled it properly by leaving and not making it about himself. It was about Whitney.

Exactly. Security would not be able to keep me from my daughter, so that excuse is lame. Bobbi Kristina would not have allowed security to keep her Father away. I don’t care where she was, outside or in the bathroom, I’m sure everyone knew what was going on. He was trying to do what Bobby wanted to do, and not respecting the wishes of the church and Whitney Houston’s family. Most importantly, the woman who gave birth to her. His actions are inexcusable. Period.

INVOLVEDFATHER you only speak on speculation all stemmed from and solely based on your personal feelings and/or opinions for Bobby. You say no one could keep you from your daughter, but if BOBBY had created a huge seen in no allowing security to keep him from his daughter, you would be saying far worse about him than what you are currently saying. Has nothing to do with an excuse. It seems where he’s concern as it relates or related to Whitney, he’s always quickly labeled as the bad guy, but in this situation I can’t, won’t and don’t agree anyone who makes such an argument.

No actually BLACKPLAYA he is speaking on behalf of the sensible population. YOU are the one speaking on emotion. Be logical for a second and you’ll realize how you sound. You cant be 20 minutes late for a funeral and bring four times the allocated invitation and then get up from you were seated so that you and your entourage can sit with the one person the entire world is worried about. As her father, he should mainly be ready to be there for her outside of the funeral because that is when she will need him the most. He should have stayed and paid respects to his late wife and been ready to console Krissy everyday after this day. Today is not the only day to sit next to her. Talk to her, walk with her, and guide her for the rest of her life. He is so selfish IMO because I just think he wanted the world to see that he was next to her on this day.

Lane, actually, I’m speaking based on the account of Rev. Jesse Jackson who saw the incident unfold as he indicated in his CNN interview after the service. He indicated that Cissy nor Bobbi Kristina were in the church yet when this incident occurred so that dispells the notion that he was there late. They had no knowledge of what occurred. Again, in his statement that aired on the news, he indicated that He and His children were ALL invited to attend the service, so again I ask, if they are INVITED like everyone else, why would they no come to support their little. The are blood relatives not strangers and should not have treated as such. I am being logical, practical, and objective and that’s why I can’t, don’t, and won’t agree with you or IvolvedFather on this.

Excuse the typos!

You dont have to agree. Thats the beautiful thing about this country. Youre entitled to your own opinion. Furthermore, you can keep commenting on every single person’s opinion as to what should or could have been done about the situation. Idk if youre on the payroll and quite frankly, i dont care. If Cissy and the rest of them weren’t there yet like you just said, then thats even more of a reason as to why you (and whoever else) shouldn’t be upset with the family. None of them forced him to leave. He still should have stayed. Just sit down and grieve during the ceremony like everybody else. Don’t try to be extra. Just sit down and remain calm and remember that this day IS NOT ABOUT YOU

Lane, listen, someone planned this service and those who were seeing to the details by the day of the funeral about who where the family would sit. So that argument don’t have the legs to stand on that you want to give it. Like I’ve said and will keep saying if others who say was transpired didn’t come out after the service and speak on what occurred then I would feel differently. That fact that some of what Rev. Jesse Jacksson stated in his interview supported what Bobby Brown said in his statement is the basis from where my comments come from and not everything based loosely on what was 1st reported by the media because when the media began reporting the story, they spoke about what they heard not what they knew and it wasn’t until they began trying find out from some folks they asked afterwards – who were actually in the church that saw what was going on. So keep responding and we will keep agreeing to disagree. I’m not easily sway to believe obvious just because you may think its popular to do so.

Thanks LANE!! I’m glad someone else is noticing this young person who labels himself a PLAYA online to argue his opinion. Lol. All I can say is, EXACTLY to everything you said. I am done arguing with this clueless child. He said he is being logical and practical, but he misunderstood the Rev. Jesse Jackson. He never said they wasn’t there, and it was being broadcast-ed LIVE when Bobby arrived.

INVOLVEDUNFITFATHER, you are the clueless idiot and yes you are done because you can’t hang with the big dogs, so I’m glad you have gained the wisdom to stay under the porch. Just because you have one other clueless person in Lane to co-sign what you’ve said certainly doesn’t give either of you a staple on what’s actual and what’s right. Expand your horizon beyond this blog and you’ll see that you are highly outnumbered in your blatantly biased thinking about Bobby Brown despite his past with Whitney. I’m fan of his, but I’m a bigger fan of Whitney’s but I don’t care who you are, if you are wrong, you’re wrong and just like what was done to Bobby at the service was wrong, the both of you are WRONG about it. Involved you are wise not to debate me because as I stated a while back, I hold my own in any situation and I don’t jump on bandwagons to follow what’s popular just because folks like you might think or say so. So it’s great that you have finally decided to find you a spot and sit absolutely still. The End!

As he explained, security would not even let him get close to Bobbi Kristina.

I’m with you. I feel the same way. I’m not with my daughter’s mother anymore. God forbid something were to happen to her… I don’t like her current boyfriend, baby daddy, whatever he is, and not too close to any of that family any more, but you best believe I would be sitting right next to my daughter, on whatever row she is sitting on, because I made her, with her mother and nobody else. I would need nobody else beside me at that moment, even if I had another child. Even though it’s always better to be the bigger man, why is everyone saying Cissy and the Houston family should have did this and that, respecting who Bobby Brown was to their daughter, mother, sister, friend.. when he failed to respect their wishes by coming with all of his children, and an entourage too? Was that respectful, or let me prepare for the paparazzi like? He didn’t think before he did that.

Forgiveness is done within. They don’t have to display it for you.

Well said InvolvedFather.

No they were accomodating him by moving him, because security already had him and his group seated. As he explained, He and His children were ALL invited by the Houstons. He was being as Bobbi Kris’ father and his children were there because they are her siblings. BET may have shown him before the story broke, but the incident had already occurred before media knew what was really going on. With all of the speculation some are making about the incident, I choose to rely on Rev. Jesse Jackson’s account of what occurred inside the church because he saw what happened and even Jackson said in his interview with Don Lemon of CNN after the services that they could have been more accomodating to him and his family as they are Bobbi Cristina’s family as well as the Houstons.

No, we weren’t in the church and there are always 3 sides to a story. However, why was there an expectation of anything? I’ve been on that front pew burying someone I loved, so believe me when I say that everything going on around you is a blur. Bobby and all his guests were seated, and if they were asked to move, they were probably seated where they should not have been. Bobby should have been more accommodating to what was on the invitation – he was an invited guest, just like everyone else, a contentious one at that. There was the expectation however, that there would be drama with Bobby Brown at this funeral, and sadly, he did not disappoint. And the media was waiting to pounce, which is why the cameras caught him coming out the door. And I bet the Houston family won’t release a statement about the incident either.

BLACKPLAYA must be on the payroll because I’ve never seen someone PERSISTENTLY defend someone else that they dont even know. BLACKPLAYA, everyone does not have to agree with you. Clearly, many dont. Therefore, you dont have to comment on every single post thats anti-Bobby and try to FORCE them to see things your way (or incase youre Bobby -Bobby’s way).

IDK how many times you say and how many different posts you comment on to say it: Bobby was wrong for leaving the funeral the way he did. The funeral was for Whitney! As her father, he should mainly be ready to be there for her outside of the funeral because that is when she will need him the most. He should have stayed and paid respects to his late wife and been ready to console Krissy everyday after this day. Today is not the only day to sit next to her. Talk to her, walk with her, and guide her for the rest of her life. He is so selfish IMO because I think he wanted the world to see that he was next to her on this day.

It’s not about defending someone I don’t know, but I want make certain folks are not being totally biased about the entire ordeal when it comes to their personal feelings/dislike for Bobby Brown. This is precisely why I keep interjecting what Rev. Jesse Jackson said about the ordeal he was there & saw what occurred and not simply go on just what Bobby said. And Lane it seems you’re defending the all of points opposite of the ones of those folks who are saying what I’m saying. Does that mean you’re on someone’s payroll?

Oh please. You keep your opinion and I’ll keep mine. Agree to disagree. At the end of the day, he’s the one who missed the funeral because he decided to leave.

Now you just sounding crazy.

@FRESH87

Bobby is a loser and you know it.

@AY..Bobby is not a loser,he’s human just like every one here on this post,you sound like you have issues of you’r own that you need help with,cause you’r sounding like a troll right now.

The man was asked to leave,there wasn’t much he could do,they could of let him sit next to his daughter,there’s no excuse

He wasnt asked to leave. Correction. He and all 20 of his kids couldnt sit where he wanted them to sit. THEREFORE, he left. smh. Read sometimes. It helps.

Fresh87, Lane and others who are on this self-righteous trip of theirs speak as if they were at the service. Moreover, they act as if they made the funeral arrangements. There are even some who keep saying he arrived at the funeral late, which is another lied. Bobby and his 3 children sat where SECURITY directed them to sit. They did not seat themselves. Lane follow your own advice -Read sometimes.

BLACKPLAYA – I already told you our conversation was over. We agreed to disagree. Therefore, I dont know why you have my name in your mouth or why youre typing about me. You werent at the funeral either, sweety. Unless like I said youre on the BB Payroll which you are, you and I have nothing further to talk about. So stay in your lane and keep it moving. Its not that serious. And they are not your family.

LANE I’ll inform you that my conversation is over when I end it and not because you say so. Now if your is over, then quickly find you a spot and sit still.

Thank you, Cheryl! I wanted him to be there just like everybody else! But being Bobby, he just had to be late and had the nerve to want to seat himself and his 13 kids with Bobby Kris. Im exaggerating and being facetious but still. And since he couldnt have his way, he left. His loss. Not anyone elses.

Cheryl and Lane

Wow!! His entourage was her step kids and bobbi kris’s siblings. He can’t sit with is daughter (which there was plenty of room) But the Winans can bring there entire family on stage. Her bodyguard, friends and Tyler Perry who only knew her the last few years can speak but her husband of 14 years and father of her child couldn’t. Please real talk, Whitney’s family wanted a perfect funeral and nothing to remind them of her drug problem, however their love of Whitney and God should have led them to do what was right and not what was Hollywood, since it was stardom that led Whitney to drugs not Bobby, yet these were the people they were trying to impress. That was the fakest funerals I have ever seen. They gave hollywood what they wanted and forgot what Whitney would have wanted.

OMG Lane give it a rest you opinion is no more valued than anyone else. He said what happened and that’s what we have to believe for the simple fact he was there and went through it not you, not me and no one else commenting on this topic.

Bobby kids is not Cissy blood relative, this funeral was directed by Cissy and what she want it and not by what some people think should have happen. If she invited bobby and two guest for front row seating then he should have abide by it and not of this would have happen. It is impossible to sit everyone on the front row so the seating arrangement is left to who the family thing is important.

There is a lot of unanswer questions regarding seating arrangemant. Did Bobby knew ahead of time how many seat was assign to him and quest and ignored it or did he arrived with out knowing where to sit which cause the conflict.

If it was the latter part he should act like a man and took his seat beside his daughter and toll security to please found seats for his remaining guests.

Thank you, Cheryl! I wanted him to be there just like everybody else! But being Bobby, he just had to be extra. And since he couldnt have his way, he left. His loss. Not anyone elses.

Absolutely!

Selish Ignorant people don’t care about that though! SMH @ how our people always have to cause a circus!

BOBBY caused the circus you numbnut. This was for WHITNEY, not him. I bet Bobbi Kris can’t stand this guy.

CO SIGN 100%. PLEASE EDUCATE THESE PEOPLE. WHAT WAS MORE IMPORTANT TO CISSY HOUSTON APPARENTLY WAS THE CELEBRITIES HAVE A SEAT. FOR ALL SHE KNOWS, RAY JAY COULD HAVE BEEN WHITNEY’S SUPPLIER, AFTER ALL SHE SLIPPED A NOTE TO BRANDI AND NO ONE KNOWS WHAT IT SAID. SHE COULD HAVE VERY WELL WELCOMED THE PEOPLE WHO HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH WHITNEY’S DEATH. BUT NO, WE CAN’T HAVE THE EX HUSBAND AND FATHER OF HER GRANDDAUGHTER THERE, THAT’S TOO MUCH LIKE RIGHT. IT WAS A DISGRACE THE WAY THE TREATED HIM AND BOBBIE CHRISTINA SHOULD HAVE MADE IT CLEAR THAT SHE WANTED HIM TO SIT WITH HER OR HAD ACCOMMODATIONS. NO RESTRICTIONS ON STEP KIDS EITHER. BLACK FOLKS HAVE TOO MANY ISSUES. I AGREE, LET THAT HAVE BEEN BOBBIE’S FUNERAL AND YOU TOLD WHITNEY TO LEAVE, ALL HELL WOULD HAVE BROKE LOSE.

Yeah he shouldve grabbed a seat 15 rows behind Ray J and the rest of the celebrities sitting up front …cmon now

Thats Whitney singing at Bobby Browns mother funeral 3 weeks ago.

Remember the reality show Being Bobby Brown ? Those kids were very close to Whitney there is no reason that they shouldnt have been expected to sit up in the first or second row and pay there respects to a woman who was a mother to them for most of there childhoods .

Whitney’s family owed Bobby NOTHING. Nothing un-christian about that.

Co-sign! they provoked that ish! That was some hot ass mess and everyone that agrees that Bobby could have sat anywhere in the church and just accept the fact that he even got an invite is just plain ignorant! Why does he even need a damn invite? That was his ex-wife of 14 years and his daughter’s mother??? Side-eye for real! Only in Hollyweird!!

This was actually in Newark and if the Houston family didn’t like his ass then so be it. Despite that fact they invited him ANYWAYS and he chose to make a scene.

Thank you Sweet D! Who was the entourage?! I only saw Bobby and his three children – Landon,, LaPrincea and Bobby Jr. People need to stop hating on this man.

Everybody on the face of this earth knew that funeral was in Newark, while you trying to be a smart ass, I was saying only in “Hollyweird” does this mess happens and it’s public knowledge….mind your damn business!!

The fact is that despite international successs, Bobby Brown can’t seem to let go of his ‘hood like ways.

May the negativity you wish on others, soon become your own.

I guess you’re not familiar with the concept of reaping what you sow? And every now and then the reaper isn’t you but someone YOU care about.

Please. Whitney said Bobby SPAT IN HER FACE. She didn’t love him she was forced into that bearded mess.

AY,

Please nothing she also smiled when she spoke of him, said she waited for him when she moved LA to move with her and that she didn’t really want to divorce him. She also said she will always love him and they were still friends, in addition to being her ONLY child’s father. BTW Whitney also denied doing drugs for a long time, so it’s not like she was not known for lying. I’m done with it. Bottom line, if the funeral was really about Whitney, Bobby and his children would have been welcomed and treated with respect. That fake mess was for the media, who were the real people that drove Whitney to drugs in the first place. It was straight Hollywood. I’m done.

Well if she was a liar then she could have lied about those first words you said *blank stare* and Bobby was an EX for a reason so hush, nobody told him to leave. Now i’m done.

The Winans family have known the Houstons for over 20 YEARS. Bobby is an EX for a reason, if Cissy or Dionne (Whitney’s mama and cousin) felt a certain way about him then oh well!!!!!!!!!

Please they could have found any random leech to take Bobby’s place. He didn’t deserve to shine Nippy’s crackhead shoes.

And Bobbi K is a Houston/Brown stupid lol she will be good regardless.

Whitney’s kid, Bobbi Kristina WAS there.
