DRUM ROLL PLEASE…

No longer having Something in Common, Whitney Houston has separated from Bobby Brown.  da dum dum

While I can’t say that anyone is exactly surprised by this announcement, there is a bigger question to be answered:  How exactly did the two singers manage to stay together for 14 long years? Or more importantly—why after 14 years did Whitney finally decide it was time to get out?

Now I must admit that after watching Being Bobby Brown (I tried to take my eyes off the screen but it was just too trash-tastic), I did walk away feeling like I had witnessed some genuine moments of love.  I mean, how many other husbands would ‘help you’ when you are having issues in the bathroom?  And how many other wives would feel comfortable enough to ask their husbands for assistance?  Now if you don’t know what I am talking about…just be glad you don’t know.

Regardless of what happens between the two, let us all keep our fingers crossed for their 13-year-old daughter, Bobbi Kristina.  Between her and Frances Bean (Courtney Love’s kid), I’m not sure who’s had to experience the most screwed up celebrity childhood in recent years.
