A spokesperson for Whitney Houston has confirmed to Access Hollywood that the party is over. Earlier today, Nancy Seltzer, speaking for Houston, revealed that the star has split from my favorite New Jack era crooner and Kang of R&B, Bobby Brown, her husband of 14 years. The Kang and Nippy have one daughter, Bobbi Kristina, whose myspace you've probably viewed dozens of times (she ought to be doing some homework). According to Access Hollywood's report, Houston, previously praised as a vocal marvel but in recent years has hit every note but the right one due to a battle with drugs, made a surprise appearance at the Beverly Hilton Hotel (which is quite spiffy) at "The Society of Singers Presents the 15th Annual Ella Award honoring Johnny Mathis" (whew, what a long title). She appeared with Clive Davis and her cousin, singer Dionne Warwick. In the article, they make note of how healthy she looked. Here's a picture of Whitney from the event:



I'll say it for you: drugs kicked her ass. I mean that powder got up, bodyslammed her, spit in her face, then sucker punched her after she got back to her feet. But, I will admit, this is an improvement. All jokes aside, it's nice to see Whitney working towards improving her health and her career. Still, it's very sad to see her marriage end. Join me tonight as I sing, "Saving All My Love For You," "Roni," and "My Name Is Not Susan" (The Karrine Remix).

Now Osama is really going to try to get at Whitney.
