Kin tells mag: Whitney's a half-toothless addict

LOS ANGELES - Songbird Whitney Houston has become a half-toothless crack
addict who hangs out in dangerous drug dens and sees "demons" in fits of
dope-induced paranoia, a new report claims.
The sister-in-law of the multi-Grammy winner made the allegations as she
spilled her own drug secrets to The National Enquirer in an exclusive report
in its April 10 issue.
"The truth needs to come out. She won't stay off the drugs. It's every
single day. It's so ugly. Everyone is so scared she is going to OD," Tina
Brown, 42, told the tabloid.
Brown, the sister of Houston's bad-boy husband R&B singer Bobby Brown,
admits she "did crack with Whitney" on many occasions, but the tattler says
she went straight last Aug. 24.
Tina Brown says she ratted on her ex-"drug buddy" in hopes of forcing
Houston, 42, to face the music and get help. "Maybe this will save her
life," she said.
Lurid photos supplied by Brown, and reportedly taken in January at Houston's
Georgia home, show a filthy bathroom littered with drug paraphernalia,
including powder-coated spoons, garbage and debris.
The Enquirer story says Houston was regularly using drugs in early and
mid-2004. "Being Bobby Brown," the Bravo network reality TV series she
starred in with her husband, was reportedly filmed between January 2004 and
June 2004.
The once-gorgeous, velvet-voiced crooner who wooed Kevin Costner in "The
Bodyguard" now "spends her days locked in her bedroom amid piles of garbage,
smoking crack, using sex toys to satisfy herself and ignoring personal
hygiene," the tabloid says.
Nancy Seltzer, a spokeswoman for Houston, said she has not seen the story
and could not comment on it.
The story also claims that:
Whitney hallucinates and sees "demons" when she's high. She bites and beats
herself black-and-blue but blames the "Devil" for the injuries. "The Devil
be hitting me," Whitney reportedly told Brown.
When Whitney's mom, Cissy, forced her to attend rehab sessions in March
2004, Tina Brown says, Whitney smoked crack on the way to the meetings and
dodged the urine drug tests saying: "I'm not giving you no pee today. I
don't have none right now."
Whitney allegedly loses her $6,000 set of false teeth when she's high and
once appeared toothless, scaring the kids at her niece's school.
Whitney smokes as much as an "eight-ball" (1/8 of an ounce) of crack at a
time, mixing it with marijuana encased in a cigar wrapper, according to Tina
Brown.
In 2004, a drug dealer called Bobby Brown and ordered him to remove the
paranoid and out-of-control Whitney from his crack house. "Come get your
wife. I'm sick of this b----," the dealer reportedly complained.
