Whitney Houston's Family RESPONDS to Oprah: "She Was Absolutely Not High"

This video is sponsored by MyFitnessPal. 👇 It just went from messy to a full-on standoff. 👀 At Cannes Lions, Oprah Winfrey claimed Whitney Houston fell off the stage during her final Oprah Show appearance because she'd relapsed and was high — and that Oprah "begged" the audience not to leak the photos to protect her. Fans were already asking why she'd tell this story almost 15 years after Whitney's death… and now Whitney's FAMILY has responded. Whitney's estate, run by Pat Houston, is firing back — saying Whitney absolutely fell, but it happened during a SOUND CHECK because of poor lighting and an unfamiliar stage, and that she was "absolutely not high." The estate also pushed back on attaching Whitney's addiction struggles to every moment of her career, defending her legacy as the result of "discipline, talent, and commitment." So now it's Oprah's account vs. the Houston family's — who do you believe? We break down exactly what Oprah said, the backlash, and the estate's full response — you decide where the truth lands. So tell me 👇 Do you take Oprah at her word, or do you side with Whitney's family? ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Sponsor: MyFitnessPal Visit http://podcasts.myfitnesspal.com and use code KEMPIRE for 15% off MyFitnessPal Premium.
