Bobby & Whitney Have Nothing In Common
Are Bobby Brown and Whitney Houston no longer singing their duet "[We've Got] Something in Common"?
Stud muffin Bobby was recently out on the town -- at Foxwoods Casino in Connecticut -- flirting with a bunch of women. No big surprise there. What was shocking was that one of the women asked him, "What's up with your wife?" Bobby replied: "We ain't together no more. We're getting a divorce."
Sounds like something Bobby would say, right?
During their 14+ years together, the duo -- initially thought to be mismatched -- made headlines for their domestic battles, legal troubles and love of blow. (I'll never forget Whit's "crack is wack" rant.) Whitney, who was the golden girl of the entertainment industry when they first hooked up, went from being an angelic-voiced siren to a sickly looking wash-up. Her last film was 1996's The Preacher's Wife; her last album was a Christmas compilation in 2003.
Last year, the couple allowed Bravo to tape their dysfunctional relationship for a reality series called Being Bobby Brown. The show was pretty amusing, but in a "I'm watching a train wreck" sorta way. Whitney really used to be such a superstar, but there she was talking about how Bobby helped relieve her constipation. It involved his fingers. TMI!
My question here is: Did anyone really think they would last? I'm guessing the answer is "Hell to the no."
