    You would think that Brandy was actually related to Whitney or something the way that she always manages to burst into tears whenever anyone mentions her name. I know that they were “close” however even Bobbi Kristina is handling it better at this point. Jennifer I’m going nowhere Hudson and Brandy my album will flop and I’ll be back to singing in bathrooms Norwood need to hop off the Whitney bandwagon and work on actually saving those struggling careers.

    • NAVYSTAN June 29, 2012

      LMAO……DAMN U WENT INN…..SMH

    • Sheltop June 29, 2012

      b**** f*** you! don’t come at Brandy like that! Brandy has a career that these girls today dream of having: Music, Movies, Endorsements, Model, Song writting. Brandy is It. don’t do that.

      • SAYINSOMETHIN-NICE June 29, 2012

        YESSS for your COmment @Sheltop- Its not like Brandy just came on the interview and started talking about Whitney and made Drama.. The Interviewer did somethin she did not prepare for..

        And Yes Most of the celebs today Dream to have Have Brandys Career achievements.. She is the TRENDSETTER and always has been.. THnkABoutIT!!

      • Honestly Speaking June 29, 2012

        Brandy hasn’t been anywhere close to being IT or possessing any interesting qualities (outside of the fact that she apparently knows how to cause car accidents) since the late 90s. Your point is invalid, your card has been declined, and I’m still sipping on my tea unbothered by your rather obvious delusion. Goodbye.

    • honestly shut the f up June 29, 2012

      You’re a dumbass… who obviously is as dense as a kiddie pool. Listen don’t make negative comments about brandy because you chose make a life out of being a beligerent asshole. That ‘s the only way you could feel qualified to make a comment like that when someone else has a response to someone’s death-let alone, a mentor; perhaps the reason why brandy even got into music in the first place. You obviously lack common understanding. You should know what you’re talking about before you speak.

      • Honestly Speaking June 29, 2012

        I think that we have all acknowledged at one point or another that Whitney’s death was a huge loss for music in general. However Whitney was not Brandy’s mother, aunt, cousin, or any other relative of any kind. Whitney’s own daughter can get through an entire interview when being questioned about her mother without breaking down in tears. I have no empathy for someone who is simply a flop trying to exploit someone’s passing for personal gain.

    • Jessica June 29, 2012

      As usual, idiots like Honestly Speaking doesn’t know s*** about anything!!! Whitney Houston was the godmother of Brandy child- IDIOT!! So Whitney was part of Brandy’s family- IDIOT. The only FLOP IS YOUR NON-FACTOR STUPID MORON ASS like yourself. I find it soo funny your lack of intelligence that your ready to bash Brandy but you don’t know the real ass fact about her life. Where is your album?? OH THAT’S RIGHT- NOWHERE WITH YOUR NON-FACTOR SELF, LMAO!!! Where is your face in tv shows, magazines and any other stuff? OH THATS RIGHT NOWHERE, SO WHO IS THE FLOP?? What you need to do is stop coming on here looking like a jackass and learn humility, but knowing you, you don’t know that meaning, SO BYE GIRL FLY GIRL!!!

    • bitchpleaseeeeeeeeeee June 29, 2012

      B**** BRANDY DIDN’T ASK FOR THAT QUESTION MR THICKO. SHE WAS ASKED A QUESTION SHE WASN’T PREPARE THATS ALL. IMAGINE LOOKING UP TO SOMEONE ALL YOUR LIFE AND EVEN SEEING THEN FOR TEH LAST FEW MINUTES BEFORE BOOM YOU WERE INFORMED THEY’RE DEAD. HOW ARE YOU GONNA FEEL THE REST OF YOUR LIFE??? NOT EVERYBODY GONNA GET OVER THAT SHOCK B****!!! WE’RE ARE ALL INDIVIDUAL SO EVERYBODY HAS A WAY OF DEALING WITH THEIR LOSS. BRANDY HAS SAID TIME AND TIME AGAIN THAT SHE ISN’T FULLY PREPARE TO DO ANYTHING REGARDING WHITNEY SO HOW ON EARTH IS SHE USING HER NAME???? YOU OBVIOUSLY DON’T LIKE BRANDY BUT B**** DON’T COME FOR HER FOR THE SAKE OF BEING VILE AND IMMATURE LITTLE WITCH! BITCHPLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< 🙁 🙁 🙁

    • skrrtwait June 29, 2012

      Whitney was her idol. look at all them folks who get trampled from being fans of someone. She actually met the person who made her want to sing and the person was accepting and encouraging. and even if she isn’t a family member of Brandy, don’t you think Bobbi Kristina who is only relevant at this moment because of her mother’s death got it all out when she was CONSTANTLY talking about it? i hope you went in on all the folks who talked of Bobbi Kristina’s drug usage and actions AFTER her mother died. Yeah, she didn’t cry on camera but she acted out just the same! and she wants to do EVERYthing Whitney, so when the whitney hype dies down, how do you know how Bobbi’s going to act when she can’t live out her mom’s memory? Brandy gets a question or two and can avoid it by focusing on HER career and talent, you’re right it’s not her mom so it’s NOT something that affected her life in an everyday manner. how do you know when the cameras are off Bobbi isn’t bawling herself to sleep on a pillow. Not everyone can hold back tears. Your ignorant to bring up her accident like she was doped up and drunk. Accidents happen! you’re one miserable ass. It’s obvious you just don’t like Brandy. Maybe one day you’ll be able to turn off the radio and sound as well as Brandy does in the bathroom.. for now, i’ll turn Brandy back up up up.

      • julesbrownskin October 20, 2012

        I loved ur comment .. Starz all Dam day. Brandy is a young Legend she got Da pipes Artist study her vocals. There is no one like her in music hands down. All u haters jus go away… Two Eleven is Best R&B Album 2 come out in a long time..

    • B June 29, 2012

      ARE YOU DUMB? IS KRISTINA BEING INTERVIEWED EVERY 3 DAYS? IT WAS HER TIME CRYING ABOUT ANYTHING WHITNEY THAT WE’VE SEEN. YOU’RE SO DUMB. DO YOUR RESEARCH B4 YOU OPEN YOUR MOUTH. DUMB AMERICAN.

      • B June 29, 2012

        ARE YOU DUMB? IS KRISTINA BEING INTERVIEWED EVERY 3 DAYS? IT WAS HER 1ST TIME CRYING ABOUT ANYTHING WHITNEY THAT WE’VE SEEN. YOU’RE SO DUMB. DO YOUR RESEARCH B4 YOU OPEN YOUR MOUTH. DUMB AMERICAN.

      • Honestly Speaking June 29, 2012

        Firstly, I didn’t know that Brandy’s “fans” or “Starz” (although I don’t know how a woman who is barely relevant herself can really call her barely there supporters Stars) or whatever she is calling your delusional behinds now were so psychotic. It’s very entertaining how you all are trying to insult me (and you’re all doing a very, very poor job might I add) just because I told the truth about your little flop obsession with the bad wigs. When Brandy’s album flops and she turns up singing in the bathroom at a Wal-Mart near you then maybe you all will finally be able to buy yourselves a damn clue and remove your heads from her fake, floppish, irrelevant ass.

      • jessica June 29, 2012

        @Honestly Speaking : B****, you are f****** pressed as s***!! LMAO!!! Your the most stupidest idiot person in the planet, why don’t you drop a record and see how you will do, MORON!!! I dre your ass won’t last 15 seconds, can your ass sing, act or do anything beside your fat stink ass that never showered in your life be behind the computer?? I don’t think so, why don’t you get some food stamps and run to Walmart to buy some food and soap to clean your p**** hole!!! LMAO!!! B**** BYE!!!

    • kwame June 29, 2012

      N**** just do your research cuz you’re so dumb and has the brain of a dog. We get it you don’t like Brandy fair enough but don’t judge her base on a question someone asked her. You are just so clueless. smfh

  2. Aimes June 29, 2012

    I think it’s cuz Brandy knows Ray J and Raffles the con-man are the 2 biggest enablers in whitney’s death. They know illegal s*** went down and hiding it behind the fake tears. She’s an actress isnt she? Dont believe everything you see, just saying.

    • Jessica June 29, 2012

      go and #TAKESEVERALSEATS!!! NON-FACTOR!!

    • bitchpleaseeeeeeeeeee June 29, 2012

      B**** DON’T TRY AND ACT BAD CUZ IT DOESN’T EVEN SUITE YA. MSH

  3. HOP OFF HER June 29, 2012

    Really guys….Whitney was her idol, she states that Whitney is the reason why she sings. Brandy don’t need to prove anything to low lifes like some of yall on hear. She is very talented and God will continue to bless her in more ways than one. Have a GREAT day all!

  4. Christian June 29, 2012

    @ AIMES – I AGREE!!!!!! Like Whitney’s sister in law said on Dr. Drew, Ray J gave her a BAD BAG!!!!!!!

  5. I Judge Flops June 29, 2012

    Brandy you are NOT going to revolve this entire era around the GREAT Whitney Houston. I understand she was an influence, but honey you have to sell these records on your OWN. So honey…

    (i’m such an ass) LMFAO

    • bitchpleaseeeeeeeeeee June 29, 2012

      BRNADY IS NOT USING WHITNEY NAME WHATSOEVER SO YOU BASIC ASSS BITHCES SHOULD DO YOUR RESEARCH PROPERLY BEFORE YOU START COMING FOR HER WITH YOUR BASELESS FACT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BTICHPLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEE<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< 🙁 🙁 🙁

  6. LouLou June 29, 2012

    Jeez, shes so emotional. I hope she can manage it so she can do the tribute Sunday. The good thing is that you can tell it is honest emotions. That chile is broken.

  7. TheRealTruth June 29, 2012

    BRANDY IS FAKE AS HELL , AND SHE STAY RIDING SOMEONE ELSE NOW DAYS WHITNEY AND CHRIS BROWN ARE HER LATEST !!! We all know she loved Whitney we all did but after watching her on her behind the music SHE proved SHE is a liar and fake. Can she sing YES… But he is not to be trusted. Also brandy Stan’s STOP talking about her history it’s just that! She’s struggling like most randb artist now days .. I will give her that the new teeth, lakefront etc make her look very pretty. But let’s leave it at her voice is great. This is the same cry and comments from the lat 50 interviews

    • bitchpleaseeeeeeeeeee June 29, 2012

      PREACH!!!!!!!!!!!

    • royalkev June 29, 2012

      Oooops, I meant to like your comment (I hit dislike by accident). I’m starting to get the impression that half of these people that are so upset are bitter Mo stans. It’s not that serious!

      Brandy and Whitney go way back! She was expressing her love for Whitney ever since her first album dropped(it’s even in an interlude titled I dedicate). If she could praise her idol big when she was alive, I don’t see the problem in doing so after she’s no longer here.

      Jennifer Hud is singing I Will Always love You every time you see a Whitney tribute. Monica was doing the same in her Atlanta shows. Brandy’s done more with the woman than just about all of them and she can’t be emotional about her mentor?! Stop it!

      THEY’RE JSUT BEING EVIL AS USUAL ONLY BCOS THEY DON’T LIKE BRANDY THATSALL!!!!!!! SMH

  12. virtuoso intellect June 29, 2012

    he introduces her as this worldwide huge superstar yet 90% of his questions are primarily about other artists. Seems more like she’s a correspondent than an actual guest

  13. monstarebel June 29, 2012

    Brandy ima need u to promote some music and drop a damn music video already! You worried about everybody else but ya self r.I.p. whitney but using her name ain’t gon help u sell no records..

    • lol June 29, 2012

      THANK YOU!!!

    • bitchpleaseeeeeeeeeee June 29, 2012

      FIRST OF BRANDY DIDN’T COME TO THE INTERVIEW AND REQUESTED THEY ASKED HER QUESTIONS ABOUT WHITNEY! AND FOR A FACT SHE SIN’T USING WHITNEY NAME TO ACHIVE ANYTHING CUZ SHE’S ALREADY STATED THAT ALREADY. YOU DON’T LIKE BRANDY IS FINE BIT STOP BEING IMMAUTE AND EVIL. BTICHPLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEE<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< 🙁 🙁 🙁

  14. TIA June 29, 2012

    I’m convinced some of you are borderline retarded. How do you decipher how someone else grieves vs. Someone else. Everyone is different. Furthermore he asked HER about Whitney, she didn’t randomly mention her, most of you don’t even know what whitney looks like past the pixels on your screen so don’t speak for her. Brandy handled the interview well despite the fact that the interviewer talked about everyone else. You brandy haters need new material and happier lives.

    • Jessica June 29, 2012

      AMEN!!!!

      • lol June 29, 2012

        The mistake Brandy made was having Chris Brown on her first single. I said it from the start! Her STANS has so FALSE HOPE. Brandy time has passed, it’s nothing she can do to get an top 50 hit on Hot 100.

    • bitchpleaseeeeeeeeeee June 29, 2012

      STAY ACTING?? LEAST SHE STILL GET ACTING JOBS AFTR ALL THESES YEARS BCOS THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE STILL IN THE BUSINESS AND FRESH WHO DON’T EVEN GET AUDITION LET ALONE CALL BACKS.BTICHPLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEE<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< 🙁 🙁 🙁
