Bobbaaaaaay Left Whitney Houston's Funeral Before It Started
Before Whitney Houston's funeral started, Bobby Brown and a few members of the Houston family argued because he brought an entourage of 9 even though only he plus two guests were invited. The family told him that 7 of his guests would have to leave since the church was already over capacity, but just like a stubborn doody bubble that refuses to pop, Bobby got mad.
A source tells TMZ that Bobby wanted to sit next to his daughter Bobbi Kristina in the front row, but Whitney's family wasn't about to let that happen. The family never told Bobby to leave, but he left on his own since his 9 guests weren't allowed to sit in the family section . The family did let Bobby pay his respects before getting into his SUV and driving away. Bobby was inside of the church for around 15 minutes.
Why does Bobbaaaaaay B always have to stir the shit? Bobby is such fucking drama. What doesn't he understand about the number 2? You can't magically turn a 2 into a 9 by erasing its tail and giving it a head. It's still a 2! I swear. Bobby is like that uncle who comes to your family gatherings with 15 friends and ignores the stank eye you throw at him as every single one of his party-crashing guests make themselves a plate. I'll tell Bobby the same thing my aunt tells my uncle's friends, "There's only enough El Pollo Loco for us, so go buy your own!"
UPDATE: Bobby tells ABC News that security caused the drama and so he left before a scene went down.
“My children and I were invited to the funeral of my ex-wife Whitney Houston. We were seated by security and then subsequently asked to move on three separate occasions. I fail to understand why security treated my family this way and continue to ask us and no one else to move. Security then prevented me from attempting to see my daughter Bobbi-Kristina. In light of the events, I gave a kiss to the casket of my ex-wife and departed as I refused to create a scene. My children are completely distraught over the events. This was a day to honor Whitney. I doubt Whitney would have wanted this to occur. I will continue to pay my respects to my ex-wife the best way I know how.”

What on earth could have been considered offensive about this post? Anyway, I'm sick of MK having to play tip toe. Whitney was found in a bathtub with a gravy bowl floating at the bottom. Back in the blogspot days he would have gone on and on about that.
Someone on dlisted was asking about the white woman with the blond afro that you could see every time they showed someone playing the piano. I have no idea who she really is, but she looked just like the Menendez Brothers and Phil Spector's attorney Leslie Abramson

Instead of setting a limit of 2 for family members - how about cut back on the size of the celebrity list ? Make sure every family member you want there is accounted for (step children included) and THEN decide on who makes the list from Hollywood. Would seem more appropriate than not letting Bobbi-Kristine's half siblings not be able to attend. That would be the heartfelt thing to do. Trust me- I'm not a fan of Bobby Brown by any means .. but it seemed douche on WH family's part.
Exactly. That odious fame whore Jesse Jackson for one. I doubt Whitney cared for any of these celebs as much as she did for her step-children.

Last week, I met with a family where their mother had passed. The were hysterical with grief!! They kept saying it was such a surprise and came out of the blue!
I looked at their information and she was 96 and was terminally ill for FOUR years with hospice care. They had made no arrangements because her death was so sudden an unexpected! I'm thinking, "Fucking really?? A surprise? We were in there trying to get answers to such difficult questions as: where was she born? What is her maiden name? Dumbfucks!
Anyway, after getting through this, the oldest child 60 ish) asks me if we can cut her into four parys to be cremated separately. I almost lost my shit on them!
_______________________________________________________
That is so sad - it must have been rough on the family. Still, they wanted to cut their poor mother up? Were they being serious, or were they just half out of their mind? That is definitely morbid, and a little off.
What a sad thing. I certainly hope everything worked out in the end.
It all worked out. It's just dome crazy stuff when you lose a loved one!

The family section is usually reserved for immediate family. "Step-children" aren't considered immediate family. Not to be rude or bash step kids, just being technical.

whitney's family is a bunch of asses.. whether or not they like bobby this would not be the place to start drama. he is the father of bobbi kristina and whitneys ex wife.. why can't he sit next to his daughter? furthermore, his children were apart of whitneys life so they should be able to sit in the family section.. people sure do show their true colors in times like this.
What a filthy, arrogant cunt, trying to make this about him.

There has been speculation for years that WH was gay and she chose Scummy to patch up those issues. She then chose a constant life of drugs to patch up those issues. I've seen it hundreds of times.
Heres the thing, They filled that place beyond what it should have been. Alot of people wanted to be there who was touched by Whitney or had some form of a relationship with Whitney, plus she was a huge icon, do you honestly think it would have been a small quiet funeral, just in reality? No. I'm not gonna even get in to the whole she was a crackhead thing, the woman still had talent and could sing her ass off and FOR THAT, music history and fans of it are grateful....Now on to this Bobby Brown business, you know I get it. But the thing is, I highly doubt he paid for this service. He couldn't even get his ass in the same state when he heard the news about her passing, inspite the fact that he has a child with her. And also, I know people are saying, "well they could have let him, 7 more wouldn't have hurt." The thing is, it's not as if he wasn't notified he could only bring a limited number of people. HE WAS. He was told himself and 2 OTHER GUESTS could attend. He chose to disrespect that request an ignore it. Maybe they limited itto 2 for the simple fact THAT IT WAS so full. Regardless, he chose to be a piece of shit and ignore it, and probably thought no one would reprimand him for not honoring the wishes of those who planned it, and HE WAS WRONG. So no, it's not the family's fault. IT'S HIS. He chose to make a scene and make things worse for his daughter, and his other children. His step children were not Whitney's children, who's to say she was close to them? Especially after her and him finally split up... we don't know how close she was to his step-children. I highly doubt his ass was close to them for all those years he was smoking crack and being a complete piece of shit. And "REV. Al, don't get me started on that attention whore who plays the race card every chance he gets on every angle. I guess he couldn't do it this time...cause ya know...

One very important lesson I learned in many years of therapy is that when you die, it doesn't matter what you wanted... It only matters to the ones who are left and love you ... Let them do what they need to do... You're already dead, they are what matter... Let them grieve as they need to. Give that to them without demands from the grave by you. Let them do what they feel they need to do. You're dead, it's no skin off your back.

ITA! Bobby Brown and his children were a part of Whitney's family for a very long time. I'm sure they are devastated. She was a parent to them in many ways. It's a shame that Whitney had to die the way she did. It's another shame that this had to happen at the funeral, imo.
@ EdDallas.... Funniest shit ever! So glad you are sharing these real life stories that must be goIng on every day.

Thanks! Honestly! You really can't make this stuff up!
The one guy in the last thumbnail looks devastated. Don't know if he was a step-child but I feel a little sad about that. Bobby still brings the drama but that pic does not look staged.

I don't knock them for televising the funeral. The idea is for everyone to think of her and it was supposed to be a nice event. They televised Princess Diana's funeral so it can't be tacky in itself. I don't blame Bobby for the scene at the funeral either. There should have been some room for his children. It's sad that they had to be photographed by TMZ being turned away.

People really aren't thinking straight when a loved one that close dies. When my dad died my mom overhauled everything he requested to fit what she thought was best at that time. My mom is never a selfish person but the stress of his death made her do a lot of uncharacteristic things. I can't be mad at whits family for their choice but I'm sure they'll regret it once they get time to reflect.
Bobby is hurting as well but he knew the game plan before showing up
Sincerely,
Alana Smithee
bullshit artist. Wouldn't be surprised if his 9 kids were more interested in being seen at this big show than giving their last respects at a funeral ...

I always thought it was public knowledge that she was into drugs before hooking up with bobby.. and her "good girl" image she came out with was a fabrication (as many are..) but really.. how to treat someone like this at a funeral is crazy.
Her family should be ashamed of themselves for behaving this way
@Lysette
Agreed. It's so sad that their grieving is too raw and immediate for them to realize this, I and get it. But I still agree with you more.
It would serve the Houston Family well to reread that bible they profess to love so much. Forgiveness is a major thread all through it. Today was not the day to behave in any way other than loving and respectful to EVERYONE that was family to Whitney. It is shameful to treat the father of her child like that. When I read that Bobby brought nine people, I thought about all the kids that were in their lives when they were married ... nieces, nephews, step children, etc. He doesn't need to bring a posse, he and Whitney had a family together. To cut off those people who love Whitney too is just cruel. Say what you want about Bobby B., but Whitney loved him and made her own choices. No one forced her to do anything. She liked that life. Obviously. Blaming Bobby is just wrong.
Yo D-Listers! I'm trying to be as unobtrusive as possible with my Big Gay Prom Fundraising Campaign posts! I've been a loyal MK fan for over 5 years and I know the drill, but this project is close to my heart and it only comes out to play once a year, so I bend my ethics slightly to ask for help on this project by posting in the comments section. It's something that hits home for many of us, myself included. So please don't be offended!
Last year, our very own MK donated his own money to the cause...
In fact, because of all the heartfelt generosity on this site, especially from all die-hard D-Listed posters, the gay youth of Rochester, NY and all the surrounding areas were able to experience an incredible prom night of their own.
295 kids from 56 schools (and over a half a dozen counties) got to have their very own evening of dancing, romance, food and fun. Memories were made, freedom was had, and it was such a positive life experience for so many kids that we're doing it again.
This year, our donor list is GROWING!

I'm sorry. It can't always be Bobby.
The "home going" sounded all sorts of tacky when they said they wanted a private ceremony, but then broadcast it on the web and tv.
This sounded like one hot mess. It's a shame.

I didn't read back, but I am guessing you are on the funeral end of things. If you are seriously surprised by people not being able to believe a loved one (at ANY age) has passed, you need a new profession.
If you think that someone in good or fair health at 96 would be passed off by anyone who knew better as ready to go, wake up.

I've always felt like Whitney married Bobby as a form of rebellion. The good girl from Jersey with the big voice, proving that she can hang with a "bad boy".

Not taking sides here, but Whitney and others have publicly admitted that she was into drugs even BEFORE Bobby came along and obviously after they divorced (he got clean and got himslef together,today her family buried her,case in point). The plus 9 he brought along included his other children, ALL of whom Whitney accepted when they married,it was not an "entourage". As someone psoted earlier, the family is grieving and I think they want someone to place blame on and of course, Bobby gets it.

@ EdDallas. LMFAO... How the hell do you keep a straight face when that shit is happening?!
OT: I don't think I have ever before seen a televised funeral. I though prior to seeing it that it was a tacky idea. After watching, I am hooked. This is how they all should be... We can all stay home in our comfortable jammies and eat Hot Pockets and cry in the privacy of our own homes... love it!

MK my love, could you post something new, please? Like some puppy or kitteh post? A nekkid guy with a six-pack would be greatly appreciated also. Two funeral posts on a Saturday is so depressing.
Poor BK looks exactly like her dad. But idk, I think her family should have been more mature, I think Whitney would have wanted him there. And maybe BK wants to see her dad but her family ain't letting that happen. And I don't entirely blame Bobbby. Whitney was a grown ass woman, capable of making her own decisions but I believe that her life would have been different if she had married a good man, I think she would still be here...

Ponchiks: I will gladly oblige:
I met with a family where the husband had, "passed himself away" (suicide) at 45 years old. His wife of 18 years and son came to make the arrangements for him along with his mother and four sisters. I loaded them into a limousine to show them available cemetery spaces. As I'm driving, I have the 13 year old son sitting next to me with all the women in the back. The mother was around 75. The discussion went something like this:
Mama: You betta not burn my baby up, you dirty bitch! (he wanted to be cremated)
Wife: Why are you making demands on us when you won't even come visit your grand kids and you live 5 houses down? You haven't seen them in 4 years!
Mama: How do I know them grand kids is even mine? I told my son the day I met you , bitch. I told him, "you lie down with pigs, you gonna get dirty."
Wife: So, you're denying these are your grand kids?
Mama: I don't know. I never got them tested.
Wife: Well then, maybe we should get YOU tested, mama!
Mama: Fuck you, you dirty bitch! I told my son not to marry your fat ass! Fuck you! I've never liked you! That's why I don't come visit!
Meanwhile, I'm driving through the cemetery with this shit going down with the grandson apologizing to me for their behavior.
Finally, I pulled over and told them we were going back to the office until they could calm down. FYI: NEVER TELL A BLACK PERSON TO CALM DOWN OR BE QUIET! They don't like that. I thought mama was going to come from the third row of the limo and kick my ass! I could see that she was staring daggers at me.
The mother and sisters left and the wife paid for everything. I was scared shitless!
After they left, I had to tell everyone in the office what had happened by reenacting the entire episode. One lady asked me if I was scared.
My response, "Yes! But I have it all recorded on my phone." We laughed our asses off because I had taken the time to strategically place the camera on my phone where I could watch later. I knew it was going to be some good shit going down!!!
This is not meant to be racist. I can tell you plenty of white people stories!
working for a funeral home or cemetery and repeating family stories on d- listed is about as low as you can go
Bottom line: you get an invitation for you plus two, you bring you plus two. Not you plus nine. It wouldn't have been a Whitney event without Bobby fuckin up shit.

You know, the more I think about this, the moe I think it is complete bullshit. Whitney loved Bobby and her step children. Also BK is close to her half siblings. I refuse to believe that the likes of Oprah was more involved in Whitney's life than her own stepchildren. I hope I am able to let bygones be bygones with my asshole stepfather if my mom kicks the bucket before either of us. I would never want ugliness like this to occur at my loved ones funeral. But a death in the family sometimes can bring out the worst in people - all that pent up hatred and anger that certain people had for Bobby but kept in check for the departed's sake just goes flying.

Come the fuck on! It's a funeral. They knew Bobby had a gang of kids so why limit him to two guests? Be civil, somebody's dead for shit's sake. And yes, I've had to give my family that same speech. If she was cool with him, then she'd have wanted his ass there.
