Oprah Winfrey interviewing singing sensation Whitney Houston
I just got through watching the second half of Oprah Winfrey’s interview of Whitney Houston. I’d be lying if I said that I was impressed. Also, I cannot say that I was convinced that she was completely truthful.
What I saw and heard was hardly anything more than an anti-Bobby Brown rant; him being the subject matter for a considerable portion of the interview.
Notwithstanding that Bobby played a major role in Whitney’s drug abuse and him (allegedly) abusing her in times past, what I was looking for was she taking ownership of her missteps. She did not.
While calling Bobby out for his miscreant behavior was fair game, I was longing to hear her say that she took full responsibility for her drug use and ditsy behavior of years past. That did not happen; instead she played the blame game.
At the end of the day, I have to say, I am truly excited that Whitney has bounced back from her darkest days, that she is looking exceptional and has a great, new top selling album, but I’m still left wanting.
