Whitney Houston and Ray J are back on, have date night together in ATL

Whitney Houston and Ray J are reportedly back together again, with the reality star postponing his tour to spend time with his gal.
Reunited couple alert! Whitney Houston, 47, and singer/reality star Ray J, 29, are back together again. The two dined together at Capital Grille in Atlanta on Thursday. A source close to the lovebirds told us that though this was their first date in a long time, Ray J postponed his promotional tour for a few days and spent the night with Houston at the Ritz Carlton. (Houston’s rep did not respond by deadline.)
- Jay-Z meant it when he said he’d be hood forever — even when he’s collaborating with giant corporations. Microsoft has spent about a million dollars on an elaborate advertising campaign for his new book, “Decoded,” out this week from Spiegel & Grau: They’ve posted pages from the book in places around the world mentioned in the rapper’s lyrics. Fans can use the Bing search engine to track them down — on the lining of a leather jacket at Gucci’s Fifth Avenue store, for example. But not all of the locations are quite so luxe. There’s also Irving Newman & Jack Robbins, a bondsman at Smith St. and Atlantic Ave. in Brooklyn, where one tipster spotted an excerpt posted in the window beneath a neon pink “BAIL BONDS” sign.

Whitney Houston Needs Drugs Intervention

WHITNEY Houston’s ex-husband is planning to stage a drugs intervention, according to a new report.

Sources say Bobby Brown blames himself for the superstar singer’s various addictions and is recruiting her loved ones — and Janet Jackson – to step in and help her.

“Whitney is struggling with her addictions, and Bobby blames himself for her problems,” a pal told American tabloid the National Enquirer.

“They did drugs together for years, but Bobby got clean and now he sees it as his job to help Whitney beat her addictions.

“He told me, ‘What’s happening to Whitney is all my fault. I stayed in the party life too long. I should have helped her a long time ago.’”

Bobby and Whitney’s 17-year-old daughter Bobbi Kristina apparently begged him to help her troubled mom.

“Bobbi Kristina told her dad that she thinks Whitney is still getting high, and asked him to confront Whitney about it,” the source revealed.

“Bobby went to Whitney and said, ‘Look, baby, you can’t get this monkey off your back alone. I will help you.’ He promised that they’d beat her addictions together.”

“Bobby knows that most of these people, especially Whitney’s mom Cissy, don’t like him and blame him for Whitney getting hooked on drugs, but he’s hoping they’ll put those feelings aside to help Whitney.”

Whitney Houston at the MEN Arena, Manchester

Diva Whitney Houston received a warm and highly emotional welcome at Manchester’s MEN Arena on Wednesday night.

Fans had waited over two months to see the Nothing But Love tour after it was postponed in April when the singer was reported to have a respiratory infection.

And what should have been the UK opener instead brings the curtain down tonight on a tour that has certainly had more downs than ups.

It was a surreal experience.

What until recently would surely have been a sell-out performance filled only the lower tiers of the massive arena. Concert-goers were clearly nervous after poor reviews and the support acts tried in vain to warm up the wary audience.

Then the star herself took the stage.

Looking a shadow of her former self, the 46-year-old, dressed all in black with a long trench style coat, began with two songs from her new album before reminding us of her 25 years in music.

At times there were glimpses of the mega-star who has been one of the most successful artists over the last three decades. Her voice retains a lovely tone and on occasions the enormous power that she is so famous for threatened to win through.

However the singer, who has battled drug addiction, was visibly distressed, clearly breathless and there was a palpable relief in the auditorium when she reached the end of the set without serious mishap.

No-one could claim that this was a good performance – songs were interrupted frequently for the singer to compose herself – but there was an undeniable appeal in her vulnerability and spirit.

She was more comfortable with the up-beat pop numbers and I enjoyed her renditions of I Wanna Dance With Somebody and How Will I Know?

But it was her signature I Will Always Love You that will be remembered…the fragile star stopped midway through and just when it seemed she would leave the song unfinished, she was lifted by the crowd to continue.

And, as she completed the classic, the reception was as warm as if it had been note-perfect.

Whitney Houston : How Will I Throw

STUFFED Whitney Houston looks like she’s Whit to burst as she tucks into an ice cream – just before a jolting thrill-ride on a rollercoaster.

The How Will I Know star, 46, must have struggled to keep her food down after scoffing a wrap and popcorn with a pal at Copenhagen’s Tivoli Gardens.

Her Denmark show was blasted after she seemed to struggle singing.

Maybe she was Waiting To Exhale…

Whitney Houston slammed after audience walks out

Looking sweaty and out of sorts, the singer was trashed by the country’s media, with one particularly harsh critic saying she ‘looked and sounded like a person who doesn’t have many years left to live’.

The 46-year-old also sparked gossip after her tight frock hugged around a suspicious belly bump. However, some ticket holders didn’t stick around long enough to notice amid claims that ‘many members’ of the audience walked out of the gig at the weekend.

Houston’s latest outing was slated by ‘all of the major media outlets’, said The Copenhagen Post. The poor show by the fallen star is the latest episode in a disastrous comeback which began on our shores last month, with many of her Nothing But Love shows dogged by illness and technical glitches.

Some British shows saw Houston abandon attempts to hit the high notes and move on to other songs, leaving fans demanding their money back.

X Factor: Whitney Houston comeback questioned after live performance

Whitney Houston made her first UK TV appearance in 12 years on X Factor on Saturday night.

The 46-year-old soul diva, who has fought a public battle against drug addiction, made her first UK TV appearance in 12 years on Sunday night’s programme.

She sang her single Million Dollar Bill, over some pre-recorded vocals, and suffered a wardrobe malfunction when a strap at the back of her long silver dress snapped open.

 Questions were also raised about Houston’s physical condition as she looked drowsy and did not speak clearly when being interviewed by host Dermot O’Leary.

Fans have inundated the show’s official website to express their shock at the performance.

One fumed: “What a huge waste of her talent. People should watch and learn what harm one can do to ones self. I hope for Whitney and all her fans she gets a grip and rejoins this planet.”

Another, using the name _kelcee_, said: “Not sure what was going on with whitney what a huge let down.”

Her performance came a week after former Take That idol Robbie Williams sang his latest single Bodies in a wide-eyed and very heated performance.

X Factor judge Cheryl Cole also performed her new song Fight For This Love in the studio following a week of strong debate about whether or not she would sing live. Simon Cowell described her routine as “incredible”.

Rikki Loney was evicted from the show this evening after losing out to Rachel Adedeji in the live head-to-head. Irish duo John and Edward Grimes won through to the next round of the competition but were booed vociferously by the studio audience.

Whitney Houston Tickets are available online on GigSport.com or call 0844 477 9950.

Whitney Houston: Bobby Spit On Me, In My Face

Whitney Houston

Whitney Houston bombshell interview with Oprah is set to air later this afternoon, and it’s sure to be a jaw dropper.

In the interview, that Oprah calls “the most anticipated music interview of the decade,” Whitney confessed that she was emotionally abused by ex hubby Bobby Brown.

“He spit on me, in my face” and left me “very hurt, very angry,” Whitney told Oprah. “But he got hit on the head three times by me,” Whitney added. 

Whitney Houston said that she finally realized how bad the relationship was when her mother intervened. “[My mother] said, ‘I’m not losing you to the world. I’m not losing you to Satan. … I want my daughter back.’”

Her mother added, “[My mother] said, ‘If you move, Bobby, they’re gonna take you down. Don’t you make one move.’ And he stood there like — he was scared.”

Whitney added, “He had such hate in his eyes for me, because I loved him so much.” She even recalled Bobby cutting her head off in pictures and drawing ‘evil eyes’ on their bedroom walls with spray paint. Psycho!

The show will air later this afternoon. It’s a season premiere you won’t want to miss!
