Did Things Come Too Easily To Singer Whitney Houston

And Did It Lead To Her Downfall

Whitney Houston and former U.S. President George Bush

Did things come too easily to the legendary singer Whitney Houston and did it contribute to her early demise at the age of 47-years-old from a cocaine overdose. Houston was one of the most beautiful women in the world, with a singing voice so fantastic it wowed many the minute they heard her.

These were all God given gifts, which begs the question, did Houston take these blessings for granted that many would have loved to own. Many singers have to work very hard to sing the most basic of songs correctly, yet Houston was able to sing effortlessly. She was naturally beautiful, which also attracted attention for her unique career. Her mother, legendary singer, Cissy Houston, also used her contacts to land her gifted daughter a record deal.

At points it became clear she was overwhelmed by the industry and turned to drugs as an escape, but it became a prison that killed her. What was to be an escape, albeit an ill-advised one, jeopardizes, then damaged her gifts and worst of all claimed her life. 

Will A Reality Show Help Whitney Houston's Family In The Wake Of Her Death

The show is about the family's life after the death of Whitney Houston, who died of a cocaine overdose and drowning on February 11, 2012, in Los Angles, California, on the eve of the Grammy Awards. They have been devastated by her tragic passing at the age of 47.

Her dad, Bobby Brown, wanted Bobbi Kristina to star in a forthcoming project about his life, as she did years ago in the reality show "Being Bobby Brown." However, she appears to have declined the offer, in favor of her own program. Houston's daughter is also working on becoming a recording artist.

As rumors swirl that Bobbi Kristina Brown, the 19-year-old daughter of the late singer, Whitney Houston, has gone to Mexico with her "adopted brother" Nick Gordon, who is also her brother, one has to wonder if her mother would have approved of the relationship.

It is being said Bobbi's grandmother, legendary gospel singer, Cissy Houston, is not happy with the relationship and tried to have Gordon evicted from her daughter's Alpharetta, Georgia home, in the weeks proceeding her death. Therefore, it's not much of a stretch to think Whitney would have had issues with it as well, as she raised them as brother and sister.

Whitney Houston's Mother Cissy Houston Talks About Rumors Surrounding Her Death

Yesterday, Gospel singer, Cissy Houston, 78, gave her first interview since the death of her award winning daughter, pop star, Whitney Houston. The 48-year-old singer died on February 11, 2012 of a cardiac episode, brought on by a cocaine overdose.

Cissy Houston slammed rumors her daughter died broke. She labeled such talk rubbish, "Whitney did not die broke ... she’s not broke. None of that crap.” Houston further stated she is "very proud" of her daughter, who "accomplished a whole lot in the short time that she had here" and "was a very wonderful person."

Cissy Houston and Whitney Houston

Whitney's mother blasted the media for their treatment of the late singer, "The media is awful…they think they know everything…these people don’t know anything about her…the media doesn’t know what they are talking about. They really chopped on her.”

Cissy also stated she does not blame herself in Whitney's death, "I know I did the best I could. I don’t blame myself. I know I did the best I could for everything.” She is right. She can't be blamed for Houston's addiction. Cissy Houston did make efforts to force her daughter into rehab, even going to court to obtain a judicial order, which she executed in the company of sheriffs, believing the pop singer's husband, Bobby Brown, would try to impede her entering rehab and recovering.

Sadly, Houston's sobriety did not last long and she returned to her vice shared with Brown, of rolling marijuana joints laced with strong crack cocaine and smoking it. This drug use ultimately killed her, deteriorating her organs.

Whitney got involved with the wrong people in the entertainment industry, full of criminals, thieves and liars, which led to an early death for her. She's not the first and won't be the last, because Hollywood refuses to heed the warnings that something very bad is upon them over their lifestyle.

Cissy Houston

To those that think drug use is harmless and nothing bad will come of it, remember individuals like Michael Jackson and Whitney Houston. The two entertainers, among others, have been considered some of the most special people on earth. But no one is too special for death via a drug overdose, as that is the reality behind substance abuse.

To entertainers like Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Madonna, Jay-Z, Lil Wayne, who have openly promoted drug use in interviews, songs and on social networking sites, I hope you're proud of yourselves in setting such a terrible example (sarcasm). Drugs damage real people and real families.
