the comeback of la whitney

Following recent reports that she completed rehab and kicked Bobby Brown to the curb, Whitney Houston finally resurfaced last night at the 15th Annual Ella Awards. I must say that although she looks kind of busted in these pictures, her fuller figure speaks volumes - usually people gain weight when they stop doing crack. Remember Courtney Love, and how she always packs on the pounds when she gets out of rehab.

Apparently Clive Davis (backed by J Records) is going to attempt what some people have deemed to be the impossible - launch the comeback of La Whitney. I'm not going to do any real conjecturing at this time, but all that comes to mind, is that performance that she gave earlier this year at the Olympic Games. She hasn't put anything out since her Christmas album nearly 3 years ago, and her album prior to that - Just Whitney - totally bricked!

In conclusion I would just like to ask - could someone please hand Miss Houston a big ole' bottle of moisturizer... some cocoa butter or something? She looks like a hot ashy mess!
