  • Bobbi Kristina Brown Cousin Jerod Brown Shares Love With Houston Family, Looking for Invite to Funeral?

    Bobbi Kristina Brown passed away on Sunday at the age of 22. Ever since the only child of Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown was found facedown in her bathtub on January 31, the entire tragedy has been surrounded by insanity. Some of that insanity came in the form of Bobby Brown’s family members.

    On Thursday one of those family members once again used the Bobbi Kristina tragedy to gain himself a bit of media attention–and it clearly worked. Do you suppose he was also gunning for something else–like an invitation to Bobbi Kristina’s funeral on Saturday?

    Bobbi Kristina’s grandmother Cissy Houston and her dad Bobby Brown have reportedly been arguing over who can and cannot attend Bobbi Kristina’s invitation-only funeral. Cissy Houston presented Bobby Brown with a list of his family members she doesn’t want at Bobbi Kristina’s funeral.

    Jerod Brown took to Facebook on Thursday to share his love with the Houston family.

    “I, personally want to take the time to say thank you to all who sent a prayer up and participated in the ‪#‎PrayForBK‬ Campaign for our loved one Bobbi Kristina. Though this is the end of her journey here on Earth, I can only hope for many it has been the beginning of a better relationship with the man upstairs. To my family, let us all continue to embrace one another & see to it that uncle Bobby knows he has a beautiful family to lean on in this time of dispair (sic). To the Houston family, we love you guys and we all will get through this one day at a time. Thanks Again to you all!”

    It’s not likely that Jerod Brown wants the Houston family to feel his love. It’s far more likely he wants to show his face to the members of the media who will be camped out outside the St. James United Methodist Church in Alpharetta, Georgia, where the funeral will take place.

    Will Jerod Brown be invited to Bobbi Kristina’s funeral?

    Will he have this much love for the Houston family if he doesn’t receive an invite?

  • Bobbi Kristina Brown Hospice Scene: Pat Houston Running the Show, Jerod Brown Sparks Concerns About Death

    Bobbi Kristina Brown has been in a hospice facility just outside Atlanta for a month now, with her aunt, Pat Houston, at her side. Sources claim Pat Houston is running the entire show regarding Bobbi Kristina’s end of life formalities–with Cissy Houston keeping close tabs on everything from behind the scenes.

    It seems the alleged peace between the Brown and Houston families may not be so peaceful after all, with the Houston side fearful that once Bobbi Kristina passes away, the Brown family members will make a mad dash to collect valuables.

    This is–in part–the reason behind Pat Houston and other members of the Houston family cleaning out Bobbi Kristina’s townhouse in Roswell recently.

    Media reports in recent days made it sound like the townhouse was just cleaned out in recent days, but in truth, the process has been ongoing for a couple of months. Bobbi Kristina Brown’s uncles Gary and Ray have been at the townhouse several times cleaning the place out. Furniture and valuables were removed first, hence the reason everything else has gone into a dumpster.

    It’s sad to think that bad blood still exists between the Houston and Brown families, and that people would take advantage of this 22-year-old’s tragedy for financial gain. Seeing some of the rants of Brown family members like Leolah Brown and Jerod Brown, however, make it clear that little peace exists between the families.

    In fact, Jerod Brown’s most recent post on social media has some believing Bobbi Kristina has passed away, and that the family is keeping silent about her death.

    “When the smoke clears you’ll know everything there is to know,” he captioned a photo of himself on Instagram just over a day ago.

    Meanwhile Cissy Houston, Bobbi Kristina’s grandmother and the person who reportedly leads Pat Houston from afar, is unable to be by her granddaughter’s bedside, but speaks with her daily. Pat Houston holds the phone up to Bobbi Kristina’s ear so her grandmother can whisper words of love and likely heaven, too, as her time on earth draws to a close.

    Do you expect a family circus will erupt between the Brown and Houston families once Bobbi Kristina passes away?

    One source claims a recent funeral video dated 7/30/2015 is actually a ‘funeral rehearsal’ created by the Houston family, so they can have the proper entertainment lined up to perform. This is likely just another unfounded statement, however. The YouTube clip is disturbing and tasteless.

    Nick Gordon–Bobbi Kristina’s boyfriend–was served with a $10 million civil lawsuit, alleging he caused physical harm to Bobbi Kristina in the days leading up to her discovery–unconscious in her bathtub. Bobby Brown has not allowed him to visit her throughout her hospitalization, rehab, or hospice stay.

    It’s sad that such a tragedy has befallen Bobbi Kristina Brown and her family. It’s almost as sad to think her family will fight over her wealth when she passes away.

    What do you expect will take place when the Houston and Brown families finally announce that Bobbi Kristina has passed?

  • Bobbi Kristina Brown Cousin Posts Cryptic Message: Is She Gone?

    The mystery surrounding Bobbi Kristina Brown just got another small wrinkle. This one comes in the form of a message from Bobbi Kristina’s cousin, Jerod Brown.

    “When the smoke clears you’ll know everything there is to know,” Jerod Brown posted to Twitter and Instagram on Wednesday.

    What might Jerod Brown have been referring to in that post? He has posted other items on social media during the Bobbi Kristina saga, including a photo of himself and Bobby Brown with other relatives, with the tweet:

    “Thank you all for your prayers & support. This has not been an easy journey. We will continue to get #JusticeForBK”

    The #JusticeForBK appears to refer to the suspicions against Bobbi Kristina’s boyfriend, Nick Gordon. Some suspect that Gordon may have hurt Bobbi Kristina, suspecting that she was going to break up with him. Some reports say that prosecutors are gathering evidence in an effort to pursue murder charges against Gordon.

    As for Jerod Brown’s tweet about “everything there is to know,” some think it may refer to all the recent rumors about Bobbi Kristina possibly having already died. It has been difficult to distinguish credible evidence from fake material. Someone posted a video to YouTube that was titled “Bobbi Kristina Brown Funeral Service 7/30/2015″ last week. That video fueled the already smoldering story that Bobbi Kristina had died in hospice and a funeral was being held within the walls there for close family only.

    Tents had been erected at the hospice site, and hearses were reportedly seen coming, as were Houston/Brown family and associates, including lawyers.

    The video seems to have been largely discredited as an interloper’s attempt to insinuate himself in the story. Keen listeners to the audio on the short clip say the pastor in the video says something about “pancreatic cancer,” which Bobbi Kristina did not have.

    Tyler Perry — a close friend of Whitney Houston, Bobby Brown, and Bobbi Kristina — spoke out last week, shaming those who inflate the story.

    “It makes me sad to know that everybody wants to be the first to report something awful,” Perry said of the stories surrounding Bobbi Kristina and family. “So much so, that they find it OK to speak death onto those who are still alive. May I ask you all to please show some decency and respect?”

    Perhaps Jerod Brown is referring to the truth about whether Bobbi Kristina is alive at all. Perhaps he is referring to the truth about how she was hurt. For now, the family has said very little to give fans of Bobbi Kristina any recent clues.

  • Bobbi Kristina Brown Not Going Home to Die

    Bobbi Kristina Brown is not going home to die. Several reports earlier this week stated that the only child of Bobby Brown and the late Whitney Houston was to be removed from life support and brought back to the home where she was discovered facedown in her bathtub back on January 31st.

    Bobby Brown addressed the present Bobbi Kristina Brown situation via a statement issued by his lawyer, Christopher Brown of Brown & Rosen LLC.

    “Due to the numerous false reports and sensationalism regarding Bobbi Kristina over the last two weeks, there is a need to comment,” Christopher Brown said. “Bobbi Kristina is not going home to die as numerous news affiliates and websites have reported.”

    The lawyer went on to negate a report about Brown feuding with his sister Leolah Brown, who frequently posts updates about Bobbi Kristina Brown via her Facebook page.

    “Furthermore, let me be clear, Bobby Brown has not made any comments to TMZ or any reporting agency, despite the TMZ article reporting that he is feuding/angry with his sister Leolah Brown,” the statement noted. “Bobby Brown never gave an interview to TMZ.”

    Christopher Brown added an aside to his statement, and made mention of another of Bobbi Kristina Brown’s relatives, and the fact that he should be completely ignored.

    “In addition, please do not report or follow Jerod Carter, aka Jerod Brown, aka YF Kennedy, on the Bobbi Kristina ‘Prayer Tour,’” he stressed. “Bobby Brown is not associated with the Prayer Tour and does not support it.”

    Bobby Brown shared a message within the lawyer’s statement.

    “Unless you hear it directly from me or through my attorney, do not believe any words attributed to me,” Bobbi Kristina Brown’s father said. “I am making decisions with Pat Houston and we are working together for the medical care of my daughter. I do not have time for the frequent side shows that others choose to engage in almost on a daily basis.”

    “Right now we are focused on Bobbi Kristina’s medical prognosis and the criminal investigation. These are the priorities for us. Whoever had a hand in causing my daughter’s injuries needs to be brought to justice,” Bobby Brown added.

    He was likely referring to Nick Gordon, the boyfriend of Bobbi Kristina Brown, who was among those to find her unconscious in her bathtub nearly five months ago.

  • Bobbi Kristina Brown Moved from Emory University Hospital to Rehab Facility

    Bobbi Kristina Brown has been moved from Emory University Hospital in Atlanta to a nearby medical rehab facility. In a medically induced coma since being discovered facedown in her bathtub back on January 31st, she remains unresponsive.

    It was reportedly the decision of Bobby Brown to move the only child he and Whitney Houston had into this rehab facility. He is in charge of making medical decisions for Bobbi Kristina Brown, and has no doubt been having a very difficult time of doing so. Last month doctors tried removing Bobbi Kristina from life support, but she suffered seizures and was hooked back up to life-sustaining machines as a result.

    Nick Gordon, Bobbi Kristina Brown’s boyfriend, claimed he performed CPR on Bobbi Kristina when she was discovered in a state of near-drowning.

    A report from People magazine indicates that ‘reality is setting in’ with regard to Bobbi Kristina Brown and her ongoing condition.

    “This hasn’t gotten any easier for him,” a source tells them of Bobby Brown. “It has gotten harder. He really thought she’d be better by now, that there would be some change. There hasn’t been any sign of improvement since this happened.”

    “We spent the first month in shock, you know? Like, ‘Oh my God, I can’t believe that this happened.’ But now we’ve had a lot of time to get used to it,” the source adds.

    No word has emerged as to which medical rehab facility Bobbi Kristina Brown was moved to, but it’s only a matter of time before the paparazzi finds out. All they have to do is follow Bobby Brown or Whitney Houston’s sister-in-law, Pat Houston, when they are en route to be by her side, and they will soon learn of the 22-year-old’s whereabouts. If they give it a day or two, Jerod Brown–Bobbi Kristina Brown’s cousin–will likely give up her location for another ten minutes of fame.

    Do you think Bobbi Kristina Brown is destined to live out her days in a coma? Do you think that the reality that is setting in for Bobbi Kristina’s family includes the notion that she might never get well?

    Will Bobby Brown eventually decide to remove Bobbi Kristina from life support again–for good this time?

  • Bobbi Kristina Brown: Cousin Releases ‘Pray for BK’ Tribute Song, Ring Missing?

    Bobbi Kristina Brown lies in a medically induced coma in an Atlanta hospital while her family members display a wide range of odd behaviors. Dad Bobby Brown has stuck closely to his daughter’s side, while his sister–Bobbi Kristina Brown’s aunt, Leolah Brown–has given reports to the media stating that both Nick Gordon and Pat Houston (Whitney Houston’s sister-in-law) may have been involved in a plot to have Bobbi Kristina murdered.

    Now cousin Jerod Brown–who goes by the stage name YF Kennedy–has released a tribute song on YouTube, called ‘Pray for BK.’ Jerod Brown is another of Bobbi Kristina Brown’s family members that Bobby Brown has urged the media to disregard.

    Jerod Brown came to the defense of Nick Gordon recently, too.

    “Nick has cooperated with the police department, he has cooperated with my uncle Bobby’s request,” he stated. “He has given my family members as much information as he can.”

    Check out Jerod Brown’s song, ‘Pray for BK.’

    Meanwhile in the Bobbi Kristina Brown saga, another report has surfaced about a missing $250K diamond ring. It’s one Whitney Houston reportedly gave to her daughter, and she was supposedly wearing it on January 31st, when she was found–nearly drowned–in the bathtub of her Roswell, Georgia home.

    It seems Nick Gordon brought up the subject of the ring during his time with Dr. Phil McGraw, before heading off to rehab. In fact, he asked his mother about the ring during his interview with Dr. Phil. She said she had put the ring away for safe keeping.

    Bobby Brown’s family then contacted the Dr. Phil Show asking for help in locating the ring. RadarOnline reports that a source told them Nick Gordon and his mother then explained that the ring they talked about wasn’t the one Whitney Houston had gifted Bobbi Kristina Brown.

    Oh, what a saga this tragedy has wound up being for the media. It’s unfathomable to imagine what life is like behind the scenes for everyone who is close to Bobbi Kristina Brown. Hopefully this young woman will one day emerge from her coma and tell everyone what happened that fateful day, but as she nears the two-month mark of existing in this unconscious state, it’s far less likely that such a thing will happen.

  • Bobbi Kristina Brown’s Boyfriend Has Been “Exploited”?

    Bobbi Kristina Brown, 21-year-old daughter of the late Whitney Houston, was found facedown, unconscious and allegedly drowned in her own bathtub on January 31.

    Names have been offered up for investigation since, including longtime boyfriend Nick Gordon and aunt Pat Houston.

    Reports say that Gordon has not been allowed beside Brown’s hospital bed as he is still highly suspected by Brown’s relatives to have had a hand in their niece’s condition. Although Gordon has not yet earned the sympathy of most of the Houston-Brown family, Brown’s cousin, Jerod Brown, recently came to Gordon’s defense via Facebook.

    Jerod posted,”For the record: Nick has cooperated with the police department, he has cooperated with my uncle Bobby’s request, he has given my family members as much information as he can.”

    Post by Jerod Brown.
    The statement followed Gordon’s recent appearance and interview with Dr. Phil who wrote that Gordon “has been exploited on national television with hidden cameras that he had no idea about. He has given Kristina CPR which is one of the reasons why she is not dead till this day. He has been ridiculed and accused without any concrete evidence, yet he still hasn't gotten the chance to visit his girl.” Brown’s family claims that Gordon might have “manipulated” Dr. Phil, the same way he has manipulated his girlfriend over the years. Brown’s aunt, Leolah also accused Houston’s sister-in-law, Pat of being involved in Brown’s near drowning. TMZ reports that according to Leolah, she believed that Pat “has a lot to do with it. Whether it be her actual hand, I can't say that right now. But I hold her accountable for what happened to my niece, Bobbi Kristina, because of what knowledge I have of her." Brown remains in a medically induced coma at the Emory University Hospital in Atlanta.

  • Bobbi Kristina Brown: Dad Bobby Brown Releases Strongly Worded Statement Against Family Members

    Bobbi Kristina Brown’s family situation is getting tenser by the day as those closest to her maintain a near constant vigil as she remains on life support since she was found unresponsive in a bathtub on Jan. 31.

    In a new statement from Bobby Brown, Bobbi Kristina’s father says that not all of her relatives have been around as much as they may claim to be and should be disregarded.

    “At this time it is requested that the media cease speaking with unauthorized members of the family,” reads a statement obtained by Us Weekly from Bobby Brown’s legal counsel.

    “The integrity of the events that led to the hospitalization of Bobbi Kristina must remain uncompromised. Various members of the family have provided media interviews, however, none of them are approved visitors to see Bobbi Kristina. None of them have firsthand knowledge of Bobbi Kristina’s treatment and the medical staff at Emory University Hospital has not communicated with them.”

    The statement specifically references Bobbi Kristina Brown’s cousin Jerod Brown, who gave an interview earlier this week regarding her condition and her partner Nick Gordon.

    “In particular, Jerod Brown aka Jerod Carter aka YF Kennedy, continues to makes statements and appear on television, however, he has not had any communication with Bobby Brown or the Houston family,” the statement continues. “He must be disregarded. Please do not attend any ‘meet and greet’ organized by Jerod Brown as he is unable to provide access to Bobbi Kristina or information on her condition. This is a criminal investigation and we do not need this side show.”

    “We continue to request privacy in this matter. We thank everyone that supports Bobbi Kristina and God is hearing our prayers.”

    All that is known at this time is that Bobbi Kristina Brown remains on life support and is breathing with the help of a ventilator. A police investigation focusing on boyfriend Nick Gordon is ongoing.

  • Bobbi Kristina Brown: Organs Shutting Down? Bobby Brown Says Disregard Cousin

    Bobbi Kristina Brown has been on life support for two weeks today, after being discovered face down and unresponsive in her bathtub. Today the New York Daily News reports that her organs are starting to fail, but despite that, Bobby Brown–her father–refuses to remove her from life support.

    Family sources say several of Bobbi Kristina Brown’s organs are now shutting down. This is a vast cry from the reports her aunts gave at a vigil for Bobby Brown and Whitney Houston’s only child on Monday. What a difference just a few days have made.

    Bobbi Kristina’s aunt, Tina Brown, told the media then that her niece was “progressing” and that she was “getting better.” Another aunt, Keolah Brown, told an Atlanta TV station that Bobbi Kristina was “moving her eyes” and that her doctors said “she is improving.”

    Bobby Brown has spoken out regarding statements made by some family members–most especially Bobbi Kristina Brown’s cousin, Jerod Brown.

    Jerod Brown gave an interview earlier in the week about both Bobbi Kristina Brown and her partner Nick Gordon. Bobby Brown issued a statement via his lawyers regarding Jerod Brown.

    “At this time it is requested that the media cease speaking with unauthorized members of the family,” a statement from Bobby Brown’s legal counsel reads. “The integrity of the events that led to the hospitalization of Bobbi Kristina must remain uncompromised. Various members of the family have provided media interviews, however, none of them are approved visitors to see Bobbi Kristina. None of them have firsthand knowledge of Bobbi Kristina’s treatment and the medical staff at Emory University Hospital has not communicated with them.”

    “In particular, Jerod Brown aka Jerod Carter aka YF Kennedy, continues to makes statements and appear on television, however, he has not had any communication with Bobby Brown or the Houston family,” the statement continues. “He must be disregarded. Please do not attend any ‘meet and greet’ organized by Jerod Brown as he is unable to provide access to Bobbi Kristina or information on her condition. This is a criminal investigation and we do not need this side show.”

    “We continue to request privacy in this matter. We thank everyone that supports Bobbi Kristina and God is hearing our prayers.”

    It’s certainly heartbreaking to hear news about Bobbi Kristina Brown and the report that some of her organs are shutting down. It’s sad enough that the Brown family has to deal with this entire ordeal, but insult is no doubt added to injury when people like Jerod Brown speak to the media without authorization from the family.

  • Bobbi Kristina Brown: Bobby Brown Says Family Members Giving Interviews Are “Unauthorized” And “Must Be Disregarded”

    Bobbi Kristina Brown still lies in a medically-induced coma, but as her close family holds constant vigil at her bedside, other members of both sides of her family continue to give out conflicting information.

    This information starts rumors about Bobbi Krisitna’s condition, like how the family was going to take her off of life support on the anniversary of her mother, Whitney Houston’s, death. Or that she is improving and opening her eyes.

    Not to mention the rumors swirling around Bobbi Kristina’s boyfriend, Nick Gordon, and his alleged involvement in what happened.

    Now, Bobby Brown is trying to put a stop to the media circus.

    MerryChristmas 🙂

    He released a statement through his lawyer telling the world to ignore these family members that freely give interviews.

    The statement, from Christopher Brown of Brown & Rosen LLC, legal counsel for Bobbi Kristina’s father Bobby Brown, read, “At this time it is requested that the media cease speaking with unauthorized members of the family. The integrity of the events that led to the hospitalization of Bobbi Kristina must remain uncompromised. Various members of the family have provided media interviews, however, none of them are approved visitors to see Bobbi Kristina.”

    The statement went on to say, “None of them have firsthand knowledge of Bobbi Kristina’s treatment and the medical staff at Emory University Hospital has not communicated with them.”

    Hmmm. That makes it seem like certain members of Bobbi Kristina Brown’s family could be riding the coattails of her tragedy for their own 15 minutes.

    The statement goes on to name Jerod Brown in particular, who claimed in interviews recently to be in touch with Nick Gordon and to be a go-between between him and Bobbi Kristina Brown’s family. He has also placed himself in the spotlight by posting things about Bobbi Kristina Brown on his Facebook page and has organized a prayer vigil for Bobbi Kristina, which might be one of the events that Brown’s lawyers referred to as a “side show”.

    GoodMorning:)(: xo

    It read, “In particular, Jerod Brown aka Jerod Carter aka YF Kennedy, continues to makes statements and appear on television, however, he has not had any communication with Bobby Brown or the Houston family. He must be disregarded. Please do not attend any ‘meet and greet’ organized by Jerod Brown as he is unable to provide access to Bobbi Kristina or information on her condition. This is a criminal investigation and we do not need this side show.”

    Ouch. If Bobby Brown’s lawyers are to be believed, then anything reported in the days following the discovery of Bobbi Kristina unresponsive in her bathtub on January 31st remains uncredible.

    Bobby Brown added his own words to the statement, but still refuses to give an update on Bobbi Kristina’s condition.

    He said, “We continue to request privacy in this matter. We thank everyone that supports Bobbi Kristina and God is hearing our prayers.”

    Do you think this statement will stop Bobbi Kristina Brown’s family members from dishing out unreliable information?
