Posted: 23 Mar 2012 06:40 AM PDT In a shocking interview on Dr. Drew's HLN show last night, Bobby Brown's sister, Leolah Brown, revealed what (and who) she blames for Whitney's death. Namely Ray-J and Pat Houston.
Check out her interview inside... Leolah Brown decided to go on Dr. Drew's show last night to discuss the L.A. coroner's toxicology report on her former sister-in-law, Whitney Houston. Leolah makes striking claims that Ray-J was Whitney's "runner boy" for cocaine. Leolah also said she found it suspicious that she saw Ray-J leaving Whitney's hotel and hiding after her death, when he has never seemed to hide when cameras were around them before. She also says she finds it hard to believe Pat Houston, Whitney's sister-in-law and manager, didn't know Whitney was doing cocaine that day. And as for Leolah's first thought when she heard the news of Whitney's death, "Somebody gave her a bad bag!" Yes...that's what she said. Ray-J has put out a statement after this interview syaing he was unaware Whitney was using cocaine and Leolah's claims are B.S. He said he wasn't even around the day Whitney died as he was in San Diego. Hmmm.... Later in the interview, Bobbi Kristina's cousins, Jerod Brown & Kelsey Brown, divulged more details about what they felt were odd happenings the day of Whitney's death. Jerod said "that guy Nick [Gordon]" came into the hospital roo after they got there to check on Bobbi Kristina during her panic attack and said "Thanks for coming out." As if they weren't supposed to be there. The cousins also said Gary Houston paid no mind to Bobbi Kristina once she collapsed on the hotel room floor right in front of him. He "kept rolling the lugage from the room right past her." They also talked about Whitney's off shore accounts and why Leolah "believes" she has legal guardianship of Bobbi Kris. Sounds real suspect... On another note, we've reached out to Bobby Brown's reps on several occasions since the death of Whitney Houston, and they have been extra mum on talking about any specifics or any rumors concerning Whitney's death. They have only put out their own general statements on behalf of Bobby Brown. So there is a chance Bobby knew nothing about this Dr. Drew interview and/or didn't co-sign it. Regardless of what was said, anybody else find it odd the ex-in-laws of Whitney claim to know so much about her life even post-Bobby and found the need to tell possibly private details on HLN? |

Whitney Houston's Death OFFICIALLY Ruled As Accidental Drowning Posted: 22 Mar 2012 04:15 PM PDT The L.A. coroner's office has issued a press release deeming the exact cause of Whitney Houston's death to be accidental drowning. The coroner's office also revealed which factors contributed to the drowning. Details inside... According to today's press release, cocaine was found to be in Whitney's system after she was found submerged in her Beverly Hilton hotel room on February 11th.

Pics of the "Housewife" and her fave Birkin having a New York afternoon inside...
With her fave grey Birkin in tow and cork Louboutin pumps, Shereè Whitfield was spotted out in NYC today looking good and grabbing lunch with friends at Lavo. And seeing that she was spending the day with jewelry designer Marsha Chun-Matsubara, we wouldn't be surprised if Shereè was up to one of her "business ventures" again....you know, like She by Shereè & Chateau Shereè. Shereè RT'd her friends' tweets that were tweeted to media like Page Six & tv media that gave their locations throughout the day. So it sounds like she wants everyone to know her whereabouts....

The couple bought the 6,000 sq. ft. pad from Lenny Kravitz in 2010 for around $14M. Almost a four million dollar profit in 2 years aint bad.

Gabrielle Union Dishes On Having A Public Relationship With Dwyane Wade Posted: 22 Mar 2012 01:11 PM PDT Gabrielle Union made a charitable appearance at the recent Miami Heat Charitable Fund Gala. And she chatted up NBC about how she and her Miami Heat star boyfriend Dwyane Wade keep everything in tact while having a public relationship.
Her answers inside... Gabby recently dished on the current projects she's working on, as well as how she keeps the relationship going with Mr. Wade throughout the busy schedules and paparazzi and rumors. And she seems to be taking it all in stride, especially after the couple's recent ESSENCE cover story. Here's her interview with NBC Niteside: Niteside: What are you up to these days? It must be nice to walk down the carpet with your man. Is it strange to have your relationship in the public eye? Which city is worse when it comes to paparazzi: Los Angeles or Miami? Do you just accept the photogs after a while? Both said in ESSENCE's February 2012 cover story that are not in a hurry to hit the altar for a second time. BONUS: Last night in Miami, Gabby was spotted all a-glow at the ABSOLUT Greyhound bash to celebrate ABSOLUT VODKA and Swedish House Mafia's new collaboration. She looks gorge.
