Any fan of Whitney Houston knows that gospel singer Kim Burrell was one of her closest and dearest friends and she had lots to say about Whitney’s only child, Bobbi Kristina’s latest antics. From having a secret wedding with her now husband/adopted brother to posting shocking bikini pictures on Twitter, it turns out Whitney’s fans aren’t the only ones seem to have noticed that Bobbi Kris has spiraled out of control since her mother’s tragic and sudden passing.
During a recent interview Kim was asked about Bobbi Kris and she revealed the advice she has for the 21-year-old.
If I were to be in her ear, the first words I would probably say are, ‘Just stop it. And you know exactly what I mean. You know what time it is. Don’t go there.’ The girl is smart. To me, she’s a victim of circumstance. I’m not making any excuses, but she was born into craziness. At nine years old, your parents give you $5,000 to go shopping, and the money increases as you get older and you’re pretty much on your own. And you’re doing what you want to do and you’re around all this stuff that she’s involved in as a teenager.
So, I would just tell her, ‘Baby, just stop.’ And consider your life to be your own and not a reflection of anyone else’s. Do your best to try to live from this moment forward as an adult because right now you’re living out something that’s killing you quickly. I don’t want to talk too much about [her marriage] ‘cause it is a sore spot. She’s young. And I just hope that at some point she’ll let people in. She’s very rebellious, but she loves me. She just doesn’t want to hear what I have to say. And I get that.
Sounds like she’s looking out. Hopefully her advice will help. Burrell, who sang at Whitney Houston’s funeral in February 2012, also opened up about missing her friend.
It’s still very hard. We just did a documentary; me, David Foster, Jennifer Hudson, Pat of course, Whitney’s mom, CeCe Winans, her brothers, Clive Davis. I think they interviewed Dionne [Warwick] too. We all did our own contribution to this documentary about her that is going to be simply amazing. I miss her every single day. I miss our talks. When Whitney called, we didn’t talk for 20 minutes. Whitney liked to talk for 7 hours at a time. And we spent 14 years doing that.
