TV BIT: DIONNE WARWICK OPENS UP ABOUT WHITNEY ON GMA

March 8th, 2012

Dionne Warwick decided to finally break her silence since Whitney Houston’s home-going service over three weeks ago. The cousin of the legendary singer sat down with Robin Roberts of ‘Good Morning America’ and shared her last moment with her cousin/close friend and how surreal her passing has been. Dionne shared that even though they were related she always saw Nippy as her own daughter:

She basically was the little girl I never had. I have two sons so she, and my other cousin Felicia, were basically my little girls … I’m heading towards being ‘okay’. I have not really had an opportunity to mourn or completely break down, which I will do. I know that. I think the comfort comes in knowing she’s in good hands now. She’s in the best hands right now.

She also shared how Whitney’s mother, Cissy is doing and said that she’s really holding up well. Although she has her moments, she is coming to terms with the loss of her daughter. Peep the clip below.

    sigh… this interview brought a tear in my eyes. The fact she talked to Whitney the day of, it’s really sad she was the last person to hear her on the phone that day. I believe Dionne said Whitney was happy that day, and she happy where she is at that time, so she was called, it’s still sad, it gonna take a long time to get over this.

    The Truth-Teller

    Whitney Houston was MURDERED by someone very influential in the world of media. Why wont they release the 911 call Whitney Houston was SOBER enough to make right before she died? Why don’t they investigate who she was arguing with that night in the club which caused her leg to bleed? Why don’t they investigate the two loud thumps that came from Whitneys hotel room that were heard by a record exec that was staying in the room above hers? Why is their a media blackout of these questions and why if a reporter does bravely ask these question like Nancy Grace did they get attacked? Who had the most to gain from her death? Remember music doesn’t sell like it once did and they reported that Whitney generated zero music sales before she died, but she was still a mega star, so what can generate interest and sales again for her and most mega star musicians? Their death. Why did Clive Davis tell the law officials not to remove her body until after some silly party and why did the LAW officials feel obliged to listen to him? How many people know that the Beverly Hilton Hotel is masonic in design, that was made to look like the freemasons compass from birds eye view? WHITNEY HOUSTON WAS MURDERED AND IT’S BEING COVERED UP.

      How do you know all of this? Were you in the room when Whitney died? No you were not….therefore everything you have stated is still an opinion. Do you really believe a family who loved her so much would cover up a murder? No one but God and Whitney knows the truth.

    I totally believe all of that. The moment I heard that she died I knew she was killed. The same way they did Michael Jackson. The same way they want to do Chris Brown. Rihanna is someone who is always on my mind and I hope she will be careful.

    YES AND OTHERS OUT THERE IN THE MUSIC INDUSTRY BETTER BE CAREFUL, PARTICULARLY THE BLACK ENTERTAINERS. THOSE IN THE INDUSTRY KNOW EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED TO HER. THEY BLASTED NANCY GRACE FOR EVEN SUGGESTING ANYTHING DIFFERENT, BUT SHE WAS ON POINT. NOW YOU DON’T HEAR ANYTHING MORE ABOUT IT. BOYCOTT THE MUSIC INDUSTRY.

    So, Black people don’t die of natural causes anymore? I’m just asking!!!!

    Only thing that killed Whitney was those prescription pills and all that alcohol she was drinking.

    Hey, but it was just her time to go; Her number was up. It’s no such thing as an untimely death. God, didn’t tell us what time we were going to leave this earth. We should expect it anytime.

    Leave Whitney!
