Dave, did you ever consider that id we as a society stopped lionizing celebrities who take their own lives through willful acts or through misadventure, if we stopped fawning like schoolgirls at a Bieber concert everytime one of them did something like this, that they, and by association ‘regular people’ would possibly think twice about doing it themselves - ans thus make the world a better place?
“My life was horrible, but people will love me in death.”
And so they go on killing themselves knowing there will be either a National day of mourning in their honor or even just a nice article in the local paper.
Instead, we should call it what it is. A bad thing. A warning to others to get their poop straight.
Instead, we have Michael Jacksonian spectacles where they have parades and memorial TV concerts and their record sales skyrocket...telling the next generation that this is a great way to go down in history.
It is sad that this happens. It it not ‘attractive’ to enable that behavior. That’s something you may wish to ponder.
Update: Whitney Houston’s daughter rushed to hospital
(CBS News)
Bobbi Kristina Brown, only child of the late singer Whitney Houston, has been rushed to an LA-area hospital, KCBS has confirmed.
Bobbi Kristina, 18, had been staying at the Beverly Hilton, the same hotel where her mother had registered to stay at for a pre-Grammy party Saturday night.
A Beverly Hills Police Dept. watch commander told CBS that Bobbi Kristina was treated for anxiety at the scene

It is reality based. She is a human being and one of God’s creations. She is a daughter and mother. One does not need to condone her lifestyle to show a little humanity. May Jesus Christ treat you better than you treat her.
“Sad, all the money in the world and she couldn’t escape the life and death of a junkie who’s husband hit her. RIP.”
Well put - sad and true.
"I had arrived"...and yeah, eventually, my *god* turned on me, and i had to accept the True Lord...
she/we did what drunks and addicts do...very few survive and actually find *Life* rather than stumbling on to the bitter end...
keep serving Brother...

Proof that good voices stand on their own.
That’s right Jim, when I through away the MOST amazing voice of any woman that has ever sang, spent millions drugs and my Gansta Husband and his family, my child, Mother and career on a 15 year drug bender you can feel sorry for me.
I don’t feel sorry for her. I feel that she had it ALL and through it all away. Whitney Houston is just such damn shame.
Twit.
Yes she was.
yea....what is with the thug boyfriends?....seems all this young and beautiful and talented women get hooked up with losers .....
sadly though...there are many who just want the singer hyped for every event, whether that means using a drug or not...they'll cheer tonight at the Grammys for WH yet some of them will continue to make believe that they are invincible.....
I've heard that she ruined her voice with the drugs and booze - couldn't hit the high notes any more, raspy voice, etc.
Supposedly, her last album was a flop - NOW its prolly gonna go to #1 ...
Death will do that for you, go figger ...
That rendition is the only one of the Star Spangled Banner to EVER hit #1. And, supposedly, Whitney donated ALL of her royalties from it to the USO ...
I'm lookin' for a main squeeze. :)
Ah Laz... God bless you for having the courage to kick it and live again! I helped my brother in law get free from it, took well over a year for him to recover.
Drugs make you fear. Once trapped in fear, it is so very hard to find the self love to walk past that fear. I admire you sir!
so talented, so beautiful - it’s a tragedy. I feel very sorry for her mother and daughter
Garbage in. Garbage out.
I just wish everybody would stop “lionizing” her. Reminds me of all the BS from the media when “Dead” Ted Kennedy and Michael (the Child Molester) Jackson died. Both of those jackasses were praised and held on high despite the fact that they were criminals.
Yee gads. What a pathetic nation and despicable people we have become.
At her recent birthday party Rihanna was reportedly snuggling with her ex-boyfriend Chris BROWN who beat the crap out her.
Reportedly he’s a homo too, maybe that’s why he beat her, didn’t appreciate she had a hoho instead of a ding dong.
Silly silly Rihanna .
If she (or any other broad) gets the sh*t kicked out of them or worse, I’ll have 0 sympathy for them. Brown is walking excrement, and it’s no secret.
