Clive Davis Used Whitney’s Funeral to Push His Product

by Jacky Jasper

During Clive Davis’ speech at the Whitney Houston funeral services, the music mogul promoted his soon-to-be released products. Don’t believe me.. Ask Marvin Winans.

Here’s the line in Clive Davis’ speech where he marketed a deceased Whitney Houston:

” Whitney said she’d be ready to return to the stage by August.
Whitney, I’m going to hold you to it.”

It’s no secret that August is the month in which “Sparkle” (which Whitney starred in) is scheduled to hit the silver screen. Now, we should all expect to see mass production of Whitney Houston products. Know why? Because Clive Davis told us his marketing strategy. This while Whitney’s coffin lay just 7 feet in front of him..

Clive Davis promised Whitney Houston’s fans he’ll be releasing products bearing Whitey Houston’s name, during her birthday month – which is also in August.

Was Clive Davis all about his business at Whitney Houston’s funeral. Of course he was, but he wasn’t alone. Cissy Houston had already sold the rights to the video footage of the funeral and Whitney Houston memorabilia is already scheduled to be auctioned. Don’t believe me.. Ask the people over at Julien’s in Beverly Hills.

    ok I did hear that the family and Whitney are broke which is why they are selling off everything. Allegedly Clive refused to help anymore than he has since his investment is gone and she’ll literally be paying him back now that she is gone. It is rumored money for Bobbi Kris..Sparkle is now being moved up to capitalize on Whitney’s death..but who didn’t see that coming?

    I noticed how his entire speech was sales & maketing commercial also. Whitney wasn’t broke. Her net was 80 million time of passing. She also invested 2 million in the movie Sparkle to keep it filming.

    Again allegedly, it’s been rumored he lent her millions in advance..but no one knows except the accountant.. Clive is the shadiest character in the business..I wouldn’t be surprised at anything at this point..Hell her mama could have drowned her ass because she was just tired or needed a check..

    It’s so fuckin sad. Whitney was supporting her entire family and now that she’s dead they are getting whatever they can from her death. Cissy should be ashamed! It’s only been a few days since Whit was laid to rest and they already auctioning some of her belongings. I had no idea cissy sold the rights to the funeral coverage. Makes me angry…cissy and em got a lotta nerve keeping Bobby from his daughters life, saying he just wants her inheritance….when her own damn grandma is selling shit. The houston family are the ones that want some of Bobby Kris’s fortune. That girl been getting high for quite some time & they didn’t care. But now she will be rich….they wanna get her all the help in the world. Yea, so she can feel indebted to them. jmo

    Whitney had received a $100million advance from either Sony or Arista years ago and produced maybe 2 or 3 lack luster albums as a result. She never wrote her own songs, and toured to stay afloat. She may not have been broke, but she had spent far more than what she was earning.

    Cissy gave permission to have the funeral televised. She wanted a controlled environment, nothing bigger than that. The people at the funeral were taking pictures. I’m sure memorabilia from the funeral will be sold as well. The fact that Bobby wasn’t there ensres that he will not get any money from the funeral’s proceeds.

    It’s about to get ugly. I thought his remark about “holding her to it” was a bit unnerving. Everyone knew what the hell he meant–cashing in those dollars! They buried her Sunday, put her NJ mansion on sale, auctioned off her Bobdy Guard dress and jewelry, and put her funeral up for sale by Monday. Sorry, but that seems to be a bit too much on the thirsty side. Her body isn’t even in the ground good.

    Nancy Grace said Whitney left Bobby an insurance policy and he’s still in her will.

    From what Bobby Brown said, he attended the funeral, and was moved several times. I think that he was moved to so many different seats because he brought 6 members of his (other) family, and the family may have found that disrespectful. In Bobby Brown’s words, he was moved more than 3 times by security. So to avoid making a scene at his ex’s funeral (and out of respect for his “new” family), he decided to leave. I’m sure just because he wasn’t hugging all on Bobby Kristina doesn’t mean he hasn’t tried to be there for her… I know that family has a guard as large as the Wall of China around that poor woman… *sighs*

    Clive Davis is doing what these fake ass Jews have been doing to us for centuries. They make merchandize out of talented Black people or any people for that matter. This is nothing new…Min Farrakhan tried to teach this to Black people years ago but most saw it a anti-semetic hate speech. Clive Davis is a multi-billionaire and he is gonna recoupe what Whitney owed him one way or the other. She is worth more to him dead then she was alive. Her voice was shot and when Clive realized that, he knew she had to die inorder for him to get back his money. Just like all famous people who die become worth more. This is one of the main reasons why Hitler hated Jews so much. He saw them as parasites who live off of other people’s resources. Why do you think Michael Jackson called them “Blood Suckers” and next thing you know he was being called a child molester? Anybody who exposes them they try to destroy…just like they did to Mel Gibson. Whitney’s dead body was on the 4th floor while he was promoting his Grammy Party down stairs. Chaka Khan better watch her back because she called it demonic. Clive don’t love Chaka for saying that on nat’l tv. Every celeb who attended that party is as sick and twisted as Clive. I hear Clive has a thing for Black Dick too. Ray J better watch out.

    Did the “Winans” get upset because he outmarketed them? Why did he bring that crew onstage, at one point I thought it was a special for them.

    Bobbi Kristine need to just leave em all,was Dionne living off Whitney money too…

    [Reply]

  13. QueenMarie |

    I dunno if Dionne was mooching off of Whitney; however, I did read that she was financially supporting her deceased father’s wife. So what happens now? Does Bobbi continue to provide or does she just discontinue and and leave people at risk for potential foreclosure? Decisions, decisions, decisions…….. I remember watching the Kardashians and Kloe mentioned that when she married Lamar, she had to rearrange his financial distributions bc he was feeding way to many leeches….how draining that must be. I even read that RKelly is still supporting the 24uear girl he molested, she and her family lives in his mansion……..sigh
