Whitney Houston’s Mother Cissy Responds to Lifetime Biopic: ‘Please Let Her Rest’
Yesterday Whitney’s mother Cissy Houston told ET exclusively that the family is “exhausted” by the “continuing misinformation and comments offered by people who did not know her,” and pleaded with people to “please let her rest.”
“Lifetime has chosen to go ahead with the movie about Whitney in spite of my family’s objections. No one connected with this movie knew Whitney or anything about her relationship with Bobby,”
“In the two years since Whitney’s death, many people have stepped forward to speak about their close relationship with her. I find it difficult to believe people who knew and supposedly loved her would participate in a movie about her done by folks who didn’t know her. We are exhausted by the continuing misinformation and comments offered by people who did not know her. Please please let her rest.”
