Chaka Khan Tried To Stop Whitney’s Drug Abuse!!!

By Alyssa Manners October 8, 2009 7:00 pm

chakawhitney

The fabulous R&B singer Chaka Khan sat down with Britain’s OK! Magazine for a recent interview, and claims Whitney’s drug addiction tore the icons apart. Chaka said she attempted to help Whitney fight her drug abuse, but was shot down breaking the once tight friendship.

Khan introduced a young Whitney  to the word when she had teenage Houston sing background vocals on her song “Naughty.”  The two became close friends from there.

“I love her very much, but we’re not close any more,” Khan told OK! “I reached out, but she doesn’t want my help. Maybe she thinks I’m going to confront her, but after what I’ve been though, c’mon…”

Chaka also discussed her own drug addiction that she kicked in the ’90s and wanted to help Whitney do the same, though she was turned away.

    SteadyStreamOfIncome & Incometoinfinity: STFU!!!

    It’s over for Whitney. Most people are tired of the Tina Turner-esque comeback. It’s the most-played-out story by now. Only black folks, particularly women, love hearing the same tale like this one. The fact is, nobody thought her marriage to Bobby Brown was a good idea when it first happened, but she knew better than all of us, or so she believed. I don’t feel bad for her at all. I wouldn’t care if she got back on the pipe. At least she’d be more interesting (LOL)

    who says whitney is doing good?! The album wasn’t good to me, and if you ask me, the chick was high as ever as she was talking to Oprah about being clean and sober. Bash me for my remarks, call me a hater, call me crazy, but i have lived around enough drug addicts, and battled enough minor demons of my own to know what i know…if you know what i mean!
