Ray J Breaks Down While Denying Whitney Houston ‘Murderer’ Rumors: ‘We Were In Love’ - Page 2
Ray J Addresses Rumors About Drugs & His Relationship With Whitney Houston: “We Were In Love”
Cam asked the questions everyone wants to know, whether Ray J ever supplied or used drugs with Houston.
“I’ve never done one drug with Whitney,” he answered, adding that working as a supplier is laughable for someone with his background.
Ray J added that, despite all twitchy appearances, he was only prescription drugs during the interview. He also said hard drugs were so far out of his comfort zone that he never tried them until he was grieving Houston’s death to try to understand it better.
Although the pairing mystified fans, Ray J said it was true love with the singer. It wasn’t a secret, but he revealed that the couple was just a few hours from hard-launching their love to the public.
“The Clive Davis event was the next day. We were going to go there together and we were going to make the announcement that we were [dating],” he said, confessing that speaking on Whitney Houston after she couldn’t speak for herself became too “distateful” to entertain.
Between the surprise love affair and initial reports sparked confusion about a bodyguard named Ray discovering the superstar’s body, the rumors about Ray J have followed him since that tragic day. When his name randomly came up in a Diddy trial question about supplying the mogul with drugs, the speculation about Houston’s demise peaked again.
Ray J Reveals The Method To His Madness Of Constantly Crashing Out
Aside from wanting a good legacy for his children, who will soon understand the shameless shenanigans that have come to define Ray J, he embraces his adversity. The “Wait A Minute” singer recalled being blackballed and accused of “revenge porn” over the sex tape that launched Kim Kardashian into fame. Now, he doesn’t only accept the role of a “villain.” Ray J is banking on it.
Throughout the interview, he swore to Cam that crashing out is the best way to dominate the fickle media landscape. His humanitarian efforts got crickets, but wilding out apparently guarantees an audience. It’s hard to tell if there is any validity to speculation about mental health or substance abuse problems in the comments or if Ray J’s ranting is just his marketing strategy at work once again. And Cam Newton seems as confused as anyone else about what’s really going on with his guest.
If nothing else, even at the cost of his relationship with estranged sister Brandy, Ray J is always going to put on a show.
