Whitney Houston died only three months ago and already her family has signed a deal to star in a Lifetime reality show called The Houston Family Chronicles. The networked announced the deal today and the show will start airing by the end of the year.
We’re going to get to see Whitney’s sister-in-law and former manager Pat, her husband Gary, and their daughter Rayah as well as Whitney’s mother Cissy. Bobbi-Kristina, the singer’s daughter with Bobby Brown, will also appear on the show. This will be Bobbi-Kris’ second time on a reality show, after one season of Bravo’s Being Bobby Brown where she learned that her father once pulled a turd out of her mother’s ass.
Yes, this is what the Houston family’s history with reality shows are. Why would Pat let this happen to her family again? She insists that the deal has nothing to do with Whitney’s death and that she’s been negotiating this deal for years. Well, that may be the case, but, come on. The deal finally happens while the corpse is still warm? And she thinks that is just a coincidence? If so, then she didn’t learn anything from the last foray into this genre that is made to exploit people’s emotional frailty. This is not going to end well, me believes.
