Whitney Houston’s family is MAD….yet again!
After denouncing LIFETIME’s Whitney Houston’s biopic telefim (Jan. 17th), the Houston Family is outraged over new reports that former “X Factor” finalist Stacy Francis (above) is allegedly joining the cast of TV One’s reality series “R&B Divas: L.A.”
So why is the Houston Family mad? You’ll recall, Stacey is the woman who allegedly got into an altercation with the iconic singer at a pre-Grammy Awards party in 2012, hours before her sudden death.
The 45-year-old aspiring singer and mother-of-two has never released an album, so it’s puzzling how she even landed the gig…if true.
A friend supposedly close to the Houston family reportedly told the Daily Mail,
“The Houston family learned of this from one of the singers on the show and they're outraged! They were already furious about this upcoming Lifetime movie and now, they feel adding Stacy Francis to this show launched about Whitney is just another slap in the face.”
After the altercation, Stacey vocalized her account of what happened, which the Houston Family felt was her way of trying to capitalize off of the situation.
“Stacy definitely was trying to use her story about Whitney to get famous, the family felt.” said the insider.
Now…the Houston Family is boycotting the show and hopes Whitney’s fans will do the same. The source added,
“As far as Whitney's family is concerned, R&B Divas doesn't even exist to them anymore. They're hoping die hard Whitney fans don't tune in to watch it, the same way they hope they boycott the Lifetime biopic. They're tired of people disrespecting the legacy of a woman who gave this industry her all.”
There's no confirmation yet from TV One. But -- if true -- your thoughts?
