I was in my room getting ready when I saw a guy and a paramedic in the elevator. They were shouting, “Hurry up, hurry up! She’s not breathing, she’s not breathing!” Later, I found out they were talking about Whitney. It was surreal. My mom called me shortly after and told me that Whitney had passed away.
Brandy was staying at the same hotel as Whitney Houston on the day she died but had no idea what was happening. Her mother had to call and break the news to her. Despite being in the same hotel, is Brandy hiding something? And isn’t it odd that Whitney Houston gave Brandy a private note just days before she died, during a taped interview? Why not give it to her privately?
People also focus on Brandy’s brother, Ray J, when it comes to Whitney’s death. He was the last person to see her alive. He let the dealer in, even though Whitney was supposedly sober. So, what do Brandy and Ray J really know about Whitney Houston’s death? And what was in that note Whitney handed to Brandy?
The last time Brandy saw Whitney was at Clive Davis’s Grammy party, just like many others. Brandy recalls, “That was the last time I saw her. I couldn’t perform at Clive’s party for the Grammys because I was devastated. I didn’t understand. I couldn’t believe it. I was in shock.”
A few days before Whitney’s death, she unexpectedly joined an E! interview with Brandy, Monica, and Clive Davis. In the footage, Whitney can be seen slipping Brandy a note. Brandy has never revealed what was written on the note, saying in another E! interview, “I’m going to keep it to myself for personal reasons.”
There’s speculation that Whitney handed the note to Brandy in front of the cameras on purpose, just in case something happened to her. After giving the note, Whitney kept Monica and Clive engaged so Brandy had time to read it. It seems odd that Whitney would interrupt a recorded interview while soaking wet and fully clothed, just to pass a note to Brandy and give her a kiss. If you listen carefully, you can hear Whitney say, “I nearly drowned today.”
Additionally, people have noticed that Brandy often shares positive experiences but stays quiet about negative ones, suggesting the note contained bad news. Her expression when she received the note from Whitney said it all, raising more questions about Whitney’s mysterious death.
According to the reports, Whitney Houston’s tragic demise was attributed to an accidental drowning in her bathtub, with findings showing traces of cocaine and other substances in her system. While official statements suggested a possible heart attack induced by artery hardening, the coroner’s report didn’t corroborate this theory.
The coroner did note Whitney had mild heart disease and some artery blockage, which isn’t uncommon among smokers. However, there was no concrete evidence supporting the theory that she suffered a heart attack before drowning. Additionally, the amount of cocaine found wasn’t deemed lethal, leaving the question lingering: what led her to be submerged in the scalding water beyond her ability to recover?
Moreover, the absence of significant water in her lungs raised doubts about drowning as the cause of death, hinting that she might have been placed in the bathtub rather than falling unconscious in it.
Adding to the mystery is the involvement of Ray J, Brandy’s brother, who was rumored to be romantically linked with Whitney. Despite public disavowals from both Ray J and Brandy, eyewitnesses recounted intimate moments between Whitney and Ray J, contradicting their claims. This discrepancy deepens the intrigue surrounding Whitney’s tragic end.
There’s been talk about Whitney Houston getting into a heated argument with Stacy Francis, all supposedly because of Ray J. It seems Ray J’s closeness to someone else wouldn’t have been an issue if he wasn’t possibly with Whitney at the time.
Ray J claimed he wasn’t at the party on the day Whitney died, but many people say otherwise. There are stories about Brandy looking for her brother at the party, which makes you wonder if Ray J was really there. And it raised eyebrows when Ray J and Raffles were spotted leaving with Brandy Burnside, especially since Raffles never really liked Ray J.
Lola Brown, Bobby Brown’s sister, suggested shortly after Whitney’s death that Ray J was helping Whitney get her hands on drugs. She found it suspicious how Ray J tried to hide his face leaving the hotel, hinting at his involvement in Whitney’s drug use. According to her, Ray J wasn’t Whitney’s boyfriend but was acting as some sort of middleman, supplying her with drugs. Brown blames Ray J for Whitney’s death.
Ray J later admitted feeling guilty about what happened but refused big money offers to talk about Whitney’s death in the media. He said no to the offers, saying it wouldn’t be right to profit from Whitney’s tragedy.
But there are still unanswered questions: What’s Ray J not saying about Whitney’s death? How much does his sister Brandy know? And did the note Whitney gave to Brandy have anything to do with her death?
Some followers insist the note wasn’t just a random occurrence, while others doubt it held any real significance. It could’ve been something as simple as a birthday wish or Whitney sharing her hotel room number with Brandy. Perhaps Whitney had a surprise gift for Brandy’s birthday. But then there are those who argue Brandy’s reaction is exaggerated, suggesting she’s using the note to drum up interest in her connection with Whitney. Some even point out how Brandy tends to lean into drama.
In 2017, both Brandy and Monica paid tribute to Whitney Houston on her birthday. Monica’s Instagram post was short and sweet, expressing, “You will forever be the greatest. You will forever be missed.” Brandy followed suit with her own heartfelt tribute, referring to Whitney as her angel, friend, and fairy godmother, and expressing eternal gratitude.
However, Brandy faced unexpected backlash for what she thought was an innocent post. Her Instagram comments were flooded with criticism, with many unfavorably comparing her tribute to Monica’s and accusing her of making it all about herself.
Despite the criticism, some speculate that Brandy might actually know more about Whitney’s life than she’s letting on. Perhaps there’s a reason she can’t speak out just yet. What do you think was really in that note Whitney passed to Brandy? And could Ray J, Whitney’s brother, also be privy to some secrets? Share your thoughts in the comments below.
