Tons of celebrities attended Clive Davis’ Annual Pre-Grammy gala in Los Angeles on Saturday night (February 11). The event had an interesting mix of emotions because of the shocking news of Whitney Houston’s death a few hours prior. And to add to the emotion of this, the singer’s body was still at the Beverly Hills Hilton Hotel – the very place the Gala was being held. Many said it should have been canceled out of respect, but as they say in show business – “The Show Must Go On..”
Her close friend and mentor Clive Davis spoke to the audience during the event and said “she had a talent beyond compare..” and asked for a moment in silence Check out more photos from the event below, including celebrity reaction on the red carpet.

In the next episode of Braxton Family Values, Toni Braxton and her youngest sister,
Tamar get into a heated argument about Toni’s issues with Tamar’s husband/former manager, Vincent. Tamar calls Toni out for not wanting to do anything with the family anymore and accuses her of being selfish for wanting to focus on her own solo career. Toni made it clear that she’s over doing everything with her sisters all of the time:
———
“I have my own dreams and aspirations and I don’t always want to share them…I like to be individualized. There’s nothing wrong with that. That’s what I’m saying. I’m in a group. We’re already doing this TV show … and then we’re gonna do an album together? We will NEVER be individualized. It means I will just be a big melting pot of just my sisters
…I have to grow on my own. But the people I am in business with now—my sisters—it’s too much.”
———
When Tamar says that “music is the our family business,” Toni fires back by saying, “No it’s not! Music has been Toni Braxton’s family business.” Oop. You’ll be able to see the sisterly tension in their brand new episode on Thursday, December 15 at 9pm ET/PT on WEtv. Check out the preview clips below. Continue

———
I’m playing in the snow. It’s kinda nice. I can’t deny it. Well just because it’s something different. The skin feels different. That’s kinda nice. It smells different. Is that in my head, no? [laughs] He’s a really nice guy. Little things though…He likes hiking. Black people don’t hike. Kayak — Is it called kayaking? See, I can’t pronounce it. Yeah, that stuff, too.

When asked if they’ve done the “deed,” Toni responded by saying, “I’ve been locked down for 10 years. So I’m kinda, I’m not comfortable with the slut in me yet. So I’m working on her. She’s not out yet.” LOL Well alright then. Peep the video below.
