Just when you thought the buzz around the Houston family had died down, it starts back up again. According to reports, Bobbi Kristina, Pat and Gary Houston and Whitney’s mother Cissy have just signed up for docu-reality series about their lives, following the passing of the iconic singer, Whitney Houston:

Lifetime has picked up The Houston Family Chronicles, a 10-episode docu-series to premiere later this year. It will follow the lives of Pat Houston, Whitney’s sister-in-law and manager, who now manages her estate; Pat’s daughter Rayah; Whitney’s brother Gary; daughter Bobbi Kristina; and mother, Grammy-winning singer Cissy Houston, as they try to pick up the pieces after the pop star’s untimely death.

Kerry opted to go minimal, yet timeless in a coral Calvin Klein long-sleeved dress, soft makeup, and a simple ponytail to complete her look. She accessorized with Dean Harris earrings, and a Roger Vivier snakeskin clutch.

President Barack Obama poked fun at himself, Republican opponents, the Secret Service and more during the 98th annual White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner held on Sat., April 28, at the Washington Hilton.
He noted that he and presumed Republican nominee Mitt Romney both have degrees from Harvard, but Mr. Romney has two.
