*Brandy Norwood was a huge fan of Whitney Houston and one year after her death, the singer is still in shock.
Looking back on how the late Whitney’s life transformed before the world’s eyes, Brandy supposes it was the loss of her voice that eventually drove Whitney over the edge.
“I understand what that [losing your voice] feels like,” Brandy told The Boom Box. “I don’t understand to that degree, but I understand, you know, because I feel like when I don’t have my instrument, I don’t really have me … It’s almost who you are. Of course, there’s more to you than your voice, but that’s what you use to share. That’s what you use to give. It’s your purpose. It’s what you were born to do … it probably drove her insane [when it faltered]. It probably drove her insane.”
For a woman in mourning, perhaps suggesting her most admired singer went insane wasn’t the best choice of words.
Despite all of that, Brandy opened up and explained that she regrets not reestablishing a connection with Whitney over the years, adding that her passing was particularly difficult to deal with.
Brandy honored the late singer by naming her latest album “Two Eleven” which represents Brandy’s birthday and Whitney’s passing.
So she’s saying that Whitney committed suicide? At least she’s not a murderer.
Brandy is trying to sell records. Her last album didn’t sell well. She’s done but trying to stay relevant.
Whitney died in 2012 not 2011, and Brandy you sure have not said that,to me that is not nice, knowing her baby Bobbi is still hurting over her mom, you have a daugther karma is nothing nice Whitney still had it,don’t you lose your voice.
Uh…Two Eleven represents FEBRUARY 11th (2/11), not the YEAR 2011. Whitney died on February 11th, on Brandy’s birthday.
Uh n Whitney still didn’t have her voice no more and you couldn’t barely hear it in her last performance with Kelly Price and prior to that. Brandy is not one of my favorite people, but I with her on this. It seemed like Whitney was falling apart because she threw away her gift!
I believe that Brandy is as big a fan of Whitney as I am and that this was just a poor choice of wording that is being taken waaaaay out of context. It’s a non-story. If anything, Brandy is probably feeling guilty for distancing herself from Whitney in an effort to protect her own image.
I know Brandy didn’t mean that literally, but many will take and sensationalize what they can. It’s just such a common practice these days. I honestly believe that Whitney was distraught about the evolutionary digression of her voice, and what normal person wouldn’t feel something? She was human. I wish she would have just allowed her legacy to speak for itself so she didn’t have to put herself back out their to be judged and ridiculed, but one thing for sure we all have a final exit ticket from this existence; it was just her time. ~GD RIP, Sweet Whitney.
Whitney abused her gift and paid for it with her life. That’s karma baby!
Anyone who knew Whitney said she was torn over losing her voice. Who wouldn’t be?
Why does Brandy keep talking about Whitney?? If she’s suppose to be promoting her album…then promote the damn album…not Whitney! She’s gone and doesn’t have to worry about singing anymore. The way Brady looked at Whitney the last time she saw her when Whitney came to visit Brandy and Monica at a Grammy rehersal…it was like “UGH!” . Like, “why are you here and embarrassing yourself?” I will never forget that look Brandy had on her face. It was not a look as if she was embracing Whitney. Whitney was her on her “high strung” episode, but Brady’s face was so crunched. Now she wants to talk about her like she was constently in Whitney’s life…smh..sure RayJ was…but not Brandy.
Well said.
Brandy is a bonafied hater and loser! She knows her brother was a major supplier to Whitney’s drug habit. She had a gift bestowed on her that people would die to have but she chose to give it all up for “pee pee” and crack. I believe that God sometimes allows us to choose our own battles. Brandy hates on anybody that will outshine her lying, crazy ass…
When I think about what happened to Whitney, my mind goes to Heath Ledger, Michael Jackson and Amy Winehouse. Together, they inspired me to write this essay: http://bit.ly/Ml8I6U
This is nonsense. Of course Brandy did not mean this literally. Look at the EUR author who wrote this… Miss Walker. Her past history of misleading story titles proves this is a non-story.

Brittney Walker (Eurweb.com) you have nothing but misleading stories that mainly printed and found here and no where else. I am fully aware of your efforts to provide readers with bogus, lame a.. stories that are far from the actual truth. Review comments above from different members here that are also aware of your frivolous BS.
Whitney and Amy . . I miss them . . . . . . so much . . . . Brandy? Unsung
Brandy is saying to distract people from her and brother Ray selling Whitney drugs-Brandy is where she is because she and brother Ray gave Whitney Houston cocaine the night Whitney fell and died- the cocaine she and Ray sold to Whitney the previous three times gave Whitney bad headaches. Murder to get your money into Brandy’s pocket? Singing only one of Brandy’s talents?
