Bobby Brown Puts Whitney’s Business on Blast, Houston Fires Back With Statement

R&B singer Bobby Brown has confirmed he was unfaithful to his former wife Whitney Houston, admitting shocking details of the couple's relationship in his autobiography 'Bobby Brown: The Truth, the Whole Truth and Nothing But', due out next month.
He writes: "I never used cocaine until after I met Whitney. Before then, I had experimented with other drugs, but marijuana was my drug of choice. At one point in my life, I used drugs uncontrollably. I was using everything I could get my hands on, from cocaine to heroin, weed and cooked cocaine."
The couple's marriage was officially dissolved last year but Brown fought to overturn the ruling in a bid to gain custody of their 15-year-old daughter Bobbi Christina and win spousal support. A judge dismissed his claims earlier this year after he failed to show up to a court hearing.
But now, Brown has admitted their marriage was in trouble for a long time and he jeopardized their relationship by cheating on his wife on numerous occasions.
"I am guilty of sleeping with other women,” says Brown. “Women are always throwing themselves at you. I'm only human, so I would make the mistake and bite the hook sometimes. I let the testosterone take over."
Brown also describes his 14-year marriage as "doomed from the very beginning." "I think we got married for all the wrong reasons," he says in the book. "Now, I realize Whitney had a different agenda than I did when we got married ... I believe her agenda was to clean up her image."
Whitney's rep responded in a statement to PEOPLE: "Miss Houston is sad that Bobby feels he need to say such things but she chooses to take the high road and will not speak badly about the father of her child even if it's to set the record straight."

Okay... okay... y'all all know that Bobby was the man back in the day, with NEW EDITION, then his need to be solo reared its head... he did his thing... I still am crazy about some of Bobby's stuff til this day real talk. Whitney was the *ish* back in the day also... you can go back and find countless number 1 hits from her on both the POP & R&B Charts... no denying they both got talent... were both good at it... in my opinion... its just an example of making the wrong decision in who you marry. Just be sure that you really can see yourself with him or her everyday, and raising a family with them, and going through the ups& downs, good&bad of life. I'm not going to say who did what because I wasn't there and don't know them, like none of us do... dirty laundry gets aired when people are still hurt and angry with the situation. They were together for a very long time... I am sure they both feel they deserve to vent their feelings
It matters not who did what to who. You both indulged. You were both adults and were willing participants. Now the only obvious thing to do is to straighten up your life and forget the past. You should not want to relive such turbulent times. Grow up gracefully.
I think that n**** talkn a bunch of s*** hez trynna put it all on whitney nd make her seem like a crake head I think that he been tryed every thing weed .crak ect ... nd got her n to doing all that but isk I think his daughter is crazy like him nd I fell srry 4 her
"Let He Who Is Without Sin.... Jesus was the only person there that day who was free of sin, the only one who had the right to "cast the first stone." He didn't stone her (or her accusers), but instead forgave her and told her to "sin no more." Otherwise, the day is coming when she, if she didn't thereafter repent, won't be stoned, but will be burned - along with the hypocrites who brought her to Him that day, if they didn't thereafter repent of their sin: Enough Said!
JT 4/4/2008 9:58:08 AM [She married HIM to clean up her image....what??? Wasn't he labelled a 'bad boy' when she met him? It's obvious he was still hitting the pipe when he wrote that paragraph ] LOL..........That was the same thing I was thinking
Everyone!!! Need to get off Whitney Houston back. We all have mess in our life.
Bobby Bobby Poor Bobby if Whitney did introduce him to cocaine or crack he was the dummy that took it. Hell Whitney aint but 80lbs all he had to do was blow one good time and Whitney and the crack would of flew away, maybe not the crack cause Bobby would of caught that in mid-air. looks like the money is low and he can't get that daily fix. I don't think this book is going to sell because we already know how f***ed up they were I'm sure everyone saw their show Being Bobby Brown, ain't nothing worse than two crackheads in love.
Bobby Brown is a total ass who needs Jesus. Go Find a Crack Pipe .......
Bobby and Whitney please stay friends 4 you all daughters. It's not her fault. U 2 r crackheads.
Bobby, if you were a real man you wouldn't air your dirty laundry for the whole world to see. I remember back when you were the one of the greatest singers now you just want to make a dollar bad mouthing your daughter mother.
