Since the story broke, fans and fellow celebrities alike have been pouring out condolences for the Houston and Brown family. See some of your favorite stars’ weigh in on the tragic news:
This day was always coming but what a massive shame.
Her mum was her rock and a user and abuser hindered her young life.
Rest with you mum Bobbi Kristina ????
Respects to the family of her who actually REALLY cared.
The pic Ciara posted makes me wanna cry. A beautiful mother and her daughter. Both lifes were cut too short. Atleast she’s resting in paradise with her beautiful mother now and not in pain anymore.
R.I.P BOBBI KRISTINA BROWN
I know I’m so sad I’m really crying right now girl Rip Krissy ????????
Its horrible sis Bobbi had her whole life ahead of her.
May her soul rest in peace, this child went through a lot. Nippy better take good care of her in her next life.
Whitney Houston was so beautiful. Like, she really was the greatest full package diva of all time. She had the VOICE, stage presence, personality, beauty & natural star quality. Watching her live performances on Youtube, is truly a honor tbh. She was simply the greatest singer of all time. Whitney was better than Aretha, Patti, Barbra & Chaka imo. RIP to both of them. And, praying for the family.
I also think she is the best singer in pop culture history. It was too much. At least, the best at live performances. That´s a fact.
My all time favorite performance is her rendition of ‘The Greatest Love of All’ at Arista’s Annivsrsary Concert. She looked like a Black Barbie – slim, tall and with delicate features. Then she opened her mouth and then it was like, “Woah, where did all that POWER come from?!” She is truly missed.
RIP #BobbiKristina May God bless your soul.
You keep saying that she is the greatest singer. Perhaps the greatest live female interpreter. But as far as complete singing goes. Mariah is the best. None of them that you mentioned do or does what she did/does as a whole.. Patti & Chaka are great belters.. But…. Anyway just wow…. All the best to the fam.
Sit please. On her worst day Whitney could sing circles around Mariah (see: When You Believe).
@Theman…
Shut up, you idiot.
Not today @Theman not today with you.
Come on you guys! Now is NOT the time for “diva wars.” Have some respect please. R.I.P BOBBI KRISTINA. That is who this is about!
^^^ nah. Whitney was the best. And she was also the best interpreter. Mariah was just a bag of tricks with no depth.
If anybody sings as well or better than whitney it is celine. Everyone else pales in comparison to whit and celine. #fact
Nah Mariah is better overall. More flexibility than both. Her technique is superior & her singing style is ridiculous. Celine is great but she is nasal. Mariah is just an overall complete beast. She does it all literally. WH is a phenomenal live interpreter though. To say that Mariah was a bag of tricks with no depth…. You’re bugging. She utilized/utilizes her full range stunningly like no other. Her voice is literally an instrument. Not to mention she’s a superior songwriter…. The other artists are just singers.
Celine’s nasal tone is not really a bad thing, just a preference. Doesn’t take away the fact that she’s a skilled vocalist who can project her voice better than everyone. But this really isn’t the place for such a discussion.
Seriously??? Y’all can’t let the stan wars rest for a day! You should be giving your condolences to the poor girl who just passed. Not arguing over who who was the best singer. This article is on a girl who just lost her life. SMH!!
RIP Bobby Kristina. May the lord welcome you with open arms and will you forever be at peach with your beautiful mother.
Mariah can’t sing: period.
She was studio made by Tommy.

Um. At their peaks, Celine and Whitney were both way better singers than Mariah and could literally sing her off the stage. In fact, Whitney actually did it at the Academy Awards when they performed “When You Believe” and Mariah could NOT keep up. And we all saw how Mariah tried to keep her distance from Celine at Diva’s Live — and to this day Celine is still better than her. Check yourself. Mariah has always been the weakest link, which is why she was so easily replaced by the likes of Jennifer Lopez.
WRONG! You all love to pretend that that Oprah performance DIDN’T happen. Whitney was hopping on one foot to keep up. When the Academy performance came Mariah was going through that time of the month and relied on Whitney to slay the performance. Many think Whitney did this magical drowning to Mimi, but she DIDN’T. Mariah didn’t belt until the end with the microphone pulled away from her mouth bc her voice dropped from being on her period. That’s why Whitney grabbed her hand to comfort Mariah and Mariah was doing that face. This has happened to many divas sharing a stage. Watch Mary Mary around 2013/2014. You’ll see Tina take over parts that usually Erica sung bc Erica voice had problem . Fact check b****. #L4L
The pic of Whitney with young Bobbi Kristina is just heartbreaking. She was just too young to leave this world, it’s really sad. Especially given how hard her life probably was. Hopefully she’s in a better place now.
Heartbreaking that his young child is gone from this earth. I really wish whitney would have got her life together. I really wish someone would have extended a hand to help and she would have received it. She and her beautiful daughter would still be with us. Whitney still died an ICON.
Now we patiently wait for Mariah to get the help she needs, before she tumbles next. Being helped to walk in heels, using a prompter to speak to crowds, and that medicated look in her eyes, I see trouble in paradise for her also.
This is not about who is the greatest singer or performer this is about the death of a young woman who was never given a fair shot at life as her parents demons haunted her day in and day out and eventually God thought it was best to allow her peace and bring her to heaven. R.I.P. Bobbi Kristina.
Also let’s stop with the prediction of who’s next because we must remember even though these people have fame and fortune they are still human just like us and none of us are perfect instead of downing and making assumptions we need to start praying and uplifting people.
Thank You @Gee you spoke nothing but the truth on both of your comments these people simply have no ounce of respect just on Joe Jackson’s post someone said that he was next so R.I.P you know they come in three’s I just looked at it and SMH like really! People simply just have no decorum these days but they want to act all loud and ignorant when you say something about there child or parent SMH those ignorant ass people need to have several seats and need to stay seated.
Hollywood is such a sad industry. I rather be an average human. It breaks my heart how they industry can just destroy everything. This break my heart. RIP BC
Same here. I wouldn´t want to be famous, never.
All I have to say if RIP finally.
This whole thing is so absolutely tragic. Whitney´s life and death was absolutely heartbreaking to witness. But everything with her daughter after that makes it all so absolutely devastating.
Whitney was so absolutely beautiful btw. The biggest beauty I´ve seen in music industry. Apart from the talent and everything else. Just too much, the level of talent and the amount of pressure these megastars endured when music was actually huge decades ago was almost unbearable for most of them. Many of these people´s problems started because of that. It was a whole different story compared to the lower expectations the public has today.
MONICA- Just right for me on iTunes now.
*looks at the charts* no one cares
lol @ the 40 year olds arguing about whose voice is better between Whitney, Mariah, & Céline. It just shows why u all have serious mind problems. Arguing about something (that is nothing but your opinion) totally irrelevant to this post… SMH.
The sound and hues of whitney voice is the best
RIP 🙁
MARIAH STANS ARE SO DISRESPECTFUL AND INSECURE.
ANYTIME MARIAH IS NOT THE CENTR OF ATTENTION, THEY’RE ONE TRACK MINDS FIND A WAY TO BRING HER UP IN DISCUSSIONS SHE DON’T BELONG IN.
WHAT A DISGUSTINGLY SHALLOW, INSECURE FANBASE! THEY CLING TO ALL MARIAH’S > PEERS GROUPS, THEN PAINT THEM AS INFERIOR BY BASHING THEM. LAMBS, STOP COMPARING & HATING ON MADONNA, WHITNEY, CELINE, JANET, BEY, RIHANNA, EMINEM, JLO, NICKI, ARIANA IN EVERY POST & WORRY ABOUT MARIAH’S SANITY.
GURL BYE & SIT IT DOWN! THE MAN DOES NOT REPRESENT THE LAMBILY!
CUT THE B******* SIS! FACT IS THAT WHENEVER A VERY SUCCESSFUL DIVA IS ABOUT TO START AN ERA, THE FIRST STANS TO FEEL THREATENED ARE LAMBS. ALL OF U GUYS IN THAT F***** UP LAMBILY ARE INTIMIDATED BY ANY FEMALE THAT PUTS MARIAH TO SHAME. THE MAN, SLAYRIAH, JOHNVIDAL, THE SKYBITCH THAT STANS FOR ADELE, ALL SEEEEETHE. YA’LL CAN FOOL SOME PEOPLE THAT DON’T KNOW ANY BETTER, BUT A LOT OF PEOPLE WON’T BE FOOLED WHEN IT COMES TO MARIAH. SHE SLEPT WITH TOMMY FOR FAME, DROPPED A BUNCH OF MEDIOCRE ALBUMS & ONLY ABOUT 3 CLASSICS TO GET TO WHERE SHE IS TODAY. SHE’S FLOPPED HALF THE TIME AND WAS TOO BASIC TO TOUR. SHE HAD 8 OR 9 GOOD YEARS B4 HER LAST GREAT ERA TEOM. THE REST OF HER DISCOGRAPHY WAS FILLER. WHAT THE HELL IS A CHARMBRACELET, RAINBOW, E=MC2, GLITTER, MEMIORS? AT LEAST 5 OF HER #1 SINGLES REACHED #1 BCUZ OF PAYOLA, & DISCOUNTED SALES. IF YA’LL WEREN’T SO JEALOUS THERE WOULDN’T BE A NEED TO CALL HER OUT, BUT YA’LL B****** ARE SO ANNOYING.
Leave it to a bunch of manic-depressive queens to turn something like this into a “who’s the better pop diva” pissing contest. Those bullies played with your heads good back in middle school, didn’t they?
I saw a simple ‘RIP Bobby Kristina’ on my timeline and all I could do was say no repeatedly and shake my head. She fought a long, hard fight – six months to be exact. Now, I believe she is in a better place. She suffered so much at the hands of the demons of her loving parents and snakes who never really cared for her. My heart goes out to the Houstons and the Browns as I pray God gives them the strength to deal with the pain. Bobby, her father, must be going through it right now. To lose an ex-wife and then your daughter in the span of three years is just… The sad thing about it is that Whitney’s family legacy has been cut off because Bobbi was her only child – her baby, her rock.
This post has nothing to do with Mariah or Celine Smh you b****** make me sick.
Celine has a powerful voice. But Mariah is far more resonant. Projecting your voice has nothing to do with great technique. Again Mariah >>>>….. Mariah is the most complex female singer. And check out her recent Vegas shows. She’s sounds phenomenal. All the respect to BK’S FAM.
MARIAH’S THIN VOCALS ARE NOTHING COMPARED TO ALL THE TALENTED WOMEN THAT ARE REAL POWER HOUSES ON STAGE. THE ONLY THING THAT MAKES MARIAH SPECIAL ARE HER HIGH NOTES THAT HAVEN’T BEEN EXECUTED LIVE PROPERLY IN OVER A DECADE. SHE’S A MESS LIVE. SHE HAS NO STAGE PRESENCE & STRUGGLES WHEN SHE BELTS. THAT’S WHY SHE WAVING HER HANDS & FINGERS THE ENTIRE TIME SHE SINGS, IT’S LOOKS LIKE SHE’S STRUGGLING TO CONTROL HER VOCALS EVERY TIME. SHE’S DRY & THERE’S NOTHING COMPLEX ABOUT MARIAH, OTHER THAN HER WRITING. SHE’S THE MOST BORING LEGEND WHEN IT COMES TO PERFORMING AND MAKING VIDEOS. COMPLEX? SHE CAN BARELY WALK IN HEELS TO THE CENTER OF THE STAGE.
Quiet! Mariah was always the better singer/artist.She has a wider range,her whistle note is still unmatched.How do you think she lost her voice? Mariah was hitting bigger notes than Whitney and Celine.Only a Whitney fan who has been there since the beginning would admit Mariah is the better singer.Whitney is a crackhead.She lost the battle when she decided to do drugs.
I’m sad about this whole thing. It’s horrible she died so young. I hope she is reunited with her mother Whitney now. Rest in peace
