I have a new, but IMPROVED respect for "the voice", because I don't know if I could find my own inner strength to tell some of the things that she told on Oprah this morning. THIS WAS VERY BIG OF YOU WHITNEY! IN OPRAH'S WORDS "HUGE"!!

I would have never guessed that she went through all of that.....on top of that, admit it to the world!! I was hanging on her every word, and I will be sure to tune in tomorrow to see part 2!! Love you Whitney and Whitney fans!!

I can't wait for this interview...that would be more emotional !!

Whitney,

I am SO glad your mother insisted on your return and you found the strength to do so. You have so much talent, I hated to see that it was being wasted and that the drugs had conquered yet another person. Stay strong and keep singing, I love hearing your beautiful voice!

Whitney, I'm watching your Oprah interview and I'm so proud of you and so happy that you had that foundation of the Lord to pull you through those dark hours. I'm thankful that the devil didn't steal that gift that God planted in you. Keep seeking the Lord and going to that light that keeps you shining bright.

I an so so very happy for you. you have truely been an inspiration in my life.

I knew this interview with Oprah would be powerful, but I didn't think that it would be THIS powerful. No wonder Oprah had to make it a two-parter. I have even MORE respect for Whitney for finding the will to pull herself out of that madness and taking responsibility for her choices, good and bad. Not many people, especially celebrities, will do that.

The fact that she can laugh at some of the drama shows that she's not holding onto any unnecessary anger. Some parts of the interview may be tough for people to hear, but Whitney had to live those things and now she has to relive them for the world.

And I knew that she was staying with Bobby to try and prove everyone wrong about their marriage. Although the part where she talked about him spitting in her face made my opinion of Bobby sink even lower than it already was.

But the one thing I didn't agree with Whitney on was when she said that Bobby WASN'T physically abusive. Anytime somebody spits in your face, pushes you against a wall and slaps you, then they're being physically abusive to you. Bobby's no better than Ike Turner. Thankfully, Whitney woke up and started a fresh chapter in her life.

I've really been hoping you would pull yourself out of whatever it was keeping you from music. You have the most amazing voice, it will be great to hear it again.

The past is done, I hope you can move on. I don't know you, but I do know your a very talented person. The future is bright if you want it to be.

Take Care, and welcome back,

Anita

What an amazing interview I was so touched by it especially when she talked about the gift that God put in her.

The interview was great.. I love the honesty , I know tomorrow interview, and performance , I will be in tears tomorrow, so i am preparing myself.

I always love Whitney Houston, the interview with Oprah was great and I can related to what Whitney was saying regarding her marriage and drugs. I never once gave up on her she will forever to a part of me. Welcome back Whitney.

Whitney I know you were in love with bobby, but you finally saw that he was not good enough for you and eventually someone like him will pull you down to the gutter with them. I missed your voice so much and I am so proud of you right now. bobby will get whats coming to him. Bobby has a tortured sole and the woman that is pregnant by him right now hasn't she seen the tv clippings of how sorry of a father he is. Bobby can't take care of the kids he has now. That girl must be a dumb ass!

Ive been waiting for this moment for a very very long time! I commend you Whitney for being so brave and honest about your personal life and experiences...Thank you so much for doing this and letting us see what went on behind the scenes You are a beautilful person inside & out! You are even more amazing than before. I have all the more respect & admiration for you and your family. Please believe you are doing a wonderful thing to talk about your past helping all other wives in the same situation who were once in. Watching you on Oprah reassures me as a woman and mother to be courageous and confident. You give us all hope to say its okay not to have the "happily ever after" scenario. I cant wait to see segment 2 tomorrow & see you sing your heart out! Much Love & Respect!!

First I would like to say that it was truly wonderful to see you back, Your story is so much like mine, No I am not a celeb, but I have been in a relationship with a man such as Bobby, and I have the love for him that you had/and or have for Bobby and I too have struggled with drugs the same kind as you. I have tried and cried many nights wanting to be free but again I too have taken those vows and yes I took them very seriously and I now want out and have been wanting out for a long time, and I don't know how to do it how to I leave a man that I have been with for 23 years, the father of my son, I man I vowed to be with for the rest of my life.

I have been with this man since I was 16 years old, after the death of my parents I had no one to take care of me, no one to help me grow up, no one to even look for me there was no one but him, and now I feel stuck and trapped in him.

My Father was a Minister and my mother a school teacher, and home maker there relationship lasted until they passed away, I always thought that I would do the same never did I believe I would be an addict, never did I believe this would be my life, and as I watch you on the Oprah show I cried and I could not believe that you, Whitney Houston and me shared a similar story, I listen to you sing and I would imagine it was me singing I felt so connected to you and your music, and sometimes I could hear your tears in the words, I'm so glad you are back, and sharing your story, I only hope that I to can free myself.

Good Luck and my God Bless and Keep you safe.

Fasha

We love you!!!

Hey Whitney,

Aloha Whitney;

As you probably now know, you are just as human as the next. We all make mistakes that is how we learn, without our mistakes where would be. With all your pain we indure for man's sake, but always remember who is 1st in your life. Everything there after falls in to place. The breath that keeps us all alive is from the Lord Jesus Christ, the reason we live is to share his words, do his will and to teach his Love, which there is only 1 LOVE.
The lord GOD LOVE YOU wheather we are good or bad, it is wriitten that JESUS has come for the sick and the sinner not the righteous.
My sharing to you is to remember JESUS 2 GREATEST COMMANDMENTS; 1. TO LOVE THE FATHER WITH ALL YOUR HEART, MIND AND SOUL & 2. TO LOVE THY NEIGHBORS. GOD IS GRACE, GOD IS GOOD & GOD IS GREAT!

Mahalo

Just got done watching the OPRAH Interview. THANK HEAVEN THERE IS A GOD! I applaud you for pulling yourself together and Lifting yourself out of the ABUSIVE HELL situation you found yourself in. The abuse is something that I expected. I'm sure you had love for THAT man, but as individuals we are ultimately responsible for what happens to us and although love can be blinding we have to evently see the light or be brought down by that destructive environment....... KEEP THAT DOOR SHUT TO BOBBY BROWN, I DID'NT LIKE WAY BACK WHEN AND I LIKE EVEN LESS NOW . YOU DESERVE A BETTER MAKE OF MAN!!!!!!!.....From this point in your life on there is no looking back!

Thank God, Thank God, Thank God. He was holding you tight in His arms. I am so glad You are back

Whitney, I just saw your interview w/Oprah today. I'm going thru the exact issues w/my husband you went thru. I'm so glad to hear that I am sadly not the only one who let their husband come "into their world" ONLY to almost destroy our world and self ...............I'm so proud of you for seeking help and coming back to yourself..............It hurts when you really love your husband so deep and try to build them up to make them feels better, only to find that they don't REALLY CARE about you and just USE YOU...................thanks again for coming out and letting persons like myself hear your words...............your words will and is helping me deal w/my madness issues of my husband.

Thanks again sister.....................and may God continue to bless you in your ways because I know you STILL love Boddy as I do my husband and it REALLY hurts to know that you have done everything you can to make it work. Only to fail because of his doings.............May God continue to bless you and your family..............Thank you,Brenn

Whitney Houston, remember simply: "Always be a first-rate version of yourself, instead of a second-rate version of somebody else."

... I love you, my sister (welcome back, I shall say it again WELCOME BACK!) ...
