hey tizoz, they do - all of the weeks episodes will be repeated at 00h30. The daily repeats of episodes run until the end of January and then stop -  a late-night game show takes over the timeslot from February.

And when she interviewed Michael in 1993; she says no one understood vitiligo: she reflects on his skin condition.
If only she had expressed this when he was still alive.....

on Whitney..i only empathise with her and other people who are going thru what she went thru.....

whitney is a drama queen, she used to hit Bobby Brown as well, not that it was justifiable for Bobby to hit back. she was edgy, it was as if she was scared Oprah will be hard on her.

all in all great and honest interview, she was not trying to be someone she's not

I really enjoyed that interview looking forward to part 2.
Most people dont understand what she is dealing with cause they dont understand addiction.

Hai shem i wasn't convinced at all, Miss O was also too soft on her unlike her usual self on other celebs. Whitney is holding back, not saying a lot, she speaks in a strategic way though she appears to be 'open', she's strategically candid yet sourcing sympathy at the same time, lets see what comes out later today.

has Bobby spoken out, or been given a chanc to talk... I wanna hear his side of the story. i really empathise with Whitmney and will forever love her but I am just curious what Bobby has to say as well

calamity

Whitney is holding back, not saying a lot
Well, she did say that there is whole lot more she could say but she was not going to. I am reserving my judgment until I watch tonight's episode

mstick
20 Jan 2010 09:53

lady gaga

mstick
20 Jan 2010 10:18

sponono
20 Jan 2010 11:03

Whitney is apparently back to her drugged self..

Pooky
20 Jan 2010 11:16

thats very sad Spo...i wish she  can just allow God to free her from her drug demons

lady gaga
20 Jan 2010 11:38

mstick, i feel she is not telling the truth, she wants symphathy whereas she allowed all that sh*t to happen to her(just my thought) and she looks like she on something!

ngwana
20 Jan 2010 12:09

Have you seen the clips on youtube from "Being Bobby Brown" ?
They were so bad for each other.

BIllionare
20 Jan 2010 13:57

very protective of Bobby, she did not want to say much about him...the part of dimming her light to please Bobby and holding on to a toxic relationship to prove people wrong is so relevant to most women..

Cande
20 Jan 2010 14:59

bathong Whitney *sigh*

myname
21 Jan 2010 09:44

You were not alone LG, i felt like i was forced 2 watch it.....

felfel
21 Jan 2010 10:18

if u've ever watched an interview of an addict or former addict before then u'd understand why Whitney was like that. Addicts adopt a certain persona to hide truth, they appear a certain way and speak in a certain way. They normally have a film of lies covering their faces. That interview was unbearable and so was that song she performed, she's just singing to pay her taxes qha now.

maddie
21 Jan 2010 10:47

when she sang it felt like she was short of breath, hai amadrugs ayamosha amavoice abantu I remember the late Brenda Fassie at some point had the same problem.

please people let's not play with the talents God gave us

Green.arrow
21 Jan 2010 10:56

here here Maddie....
But atleast she looks fresh...compared to that Diane Swayer (sp) interview.

Whatever the escapedes between her and Bobby, im more concerned about the kids. I hope they dont fall into the psycological web of repeating the same mistakes their parents did.

Thank gaad the Whitney one's out of the wayt...Cant wait for the MJ what what today.....

PS:..Oprah was feeling that "ddint know my own strength" song..i tried to take it like her(auntie Oprah),but it lost me somehow...

sponono
21 Jan 2010 11:01

watched and for the first time I realised I dont like this woman and her personality and I dont think she was honest....which explains why she's rumored to be back on drugs....

Green.arrow
21 Jan 2010 11:05

also runoured to be back with Bobby..

I say time will tell. 

cleve
21 Jan 2010 11:31

eish Whitney......... still love you though. Please it can't be........ that she went back to grugs. I pray it's not true

calamity
21 Jan 2010 14:09

She has denied those rumours GA. Let us all hope that it is not true. 

Green.arrow
21 Jan 2010 18:27

Ewe calamity...we can only hope hey....

the MJ interview..
Oprah was on point about the analysis...in my view.  Im glad she eve acknowledged that looking back she would have handled the interview  (especially post)  differently, she would have "related" better with him....

Floh

Go easy on Whitney pls. Some of us watch the interview and sympathise with her, never analyse it, it is her story.
