Today's Foolywang: BOBBY BROWN CLAIMS THAT WHITNEY HOUSTON GOT HIM HOOKED ON CRACK!!!

Bobby Brown is releasing a new tell all book. And in it, he's blaming Whitney Houston for his crack and cocaine use. Here's how the NY Post is reporting it:
"I never used cocaine until after I met Whitney. Before then, I had experimented with other drugs, but marijuana was my drug of choice," Brown writes in "Bobby Brown: The Truth, the Whole Truth and Nothing But," out next month. "At one point in my life, I used drugs uncontrollably. I was using everything I could get my hands on, from cocaine to heroin, weed and cooked cocaine." As far as his 15-year marriage to Houston is concerned, it "was doomed from the very beginning. Within the first year we separated, with several more to follow," Brown writes. "I think we got married for all the wrong reasons. Now, I realize Whitney had a different agenda than I did when we got married . . . I believe her agenda was to clean up her image, while mine was to be loved and have children. " Whitney, he alleges, had been under "a lot of pressure. The media was accusing her of having a bisexual relationship with her assistant, Robin Crawford. Since she was the American Sweetheart and all, that didn't go too well with her image . . . In Whitney's situation, the only solution was to get married and have kids. That would kill all speculation, whether it was true or not. In the short, I think I got caught up in the politics and ended up marrying one of the biggest stars in the world." But he claims that he was largely to blame for his marriage falling apart. Check out these quotes:
[Bobby said,] "I am guilty of sleeping with other women . . . Women are always throwing themselves at you. I'm only human, so I would make the mistake and bite the hook sometimes . . . I let the testosterone take over." He let NATAS take the wheel! Crack is Whack!

These Are The Last Days: Pregnant "Man" On Oprah Tomorrow

This is hard to follow, but "he" was born a woman, got a sex change and "became a man", but left his internal female organs intact. Went on to marry a biological woman, who could not have children, thus he ceases his testosterone therapy and gets artificially inseminated. Check this out:
The much buzzed about 'pregnant man', Thomas Beatie will be a guest on Oprah's show Thursday.
Beatie's a transgender man that is expecting a child. Though he underwent surgery to switch genders, he kept his female reproductive organs and is nearly six months pregnant.
He tells Oprah that his current wife Nancy is unable to conceive and that's the only reason he's going through with the pregnancy. Beatie was able to conceive via artificial insemination.
Thomas tells Oprah in a show clip, "I'm a person and I have the right to have my own biological child."
He expects to deliver a girl around July 3rd.

As far as we should be concerned "he" is really a really confused "she", and next Jesus needs to take the wheel!

Did Jailers Contribute to Sean Levert's Death?

Sean Levert was physically restrained by jail guards right before he died. Staff at the Cuyahoga County Jail tell us Levert was "out of control" and "hallucinating," forcing them to place him in a restraining chair, because he was a danger to himself.

They are currently awaiting toxicology results -- those will take four to six weeks to come back.Sean reportedly suffered from high blood pressure.

Rice: Zimbabwe President a `disgrace'

JERUSALEM -- Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice on Sunday branded Zimbabwe's president a "disgrace" to his people and to Africa, and expressed concerns about verifying whether the country held free and fair elections.
Rice, in the Mideast for peace talks, made the harsh comments after voting Saturday in Zimbabwe that presented Robert Mugabe with the toughest challenge to his 28-year rule. The main opposition party on Sunday claimed an early lead; preliminary results were expected by Monday.
"We've made very clear our concerns about how this election might be conducted, given the very bad record of Mugabe concerning his people, the opposition and the region," Rice told reporters after meeting with Israeli and Palestinian leaders.
"We've tried to make a case ... that there needed to be free and fair elections in Zimbabwe as much as it was possible. It's difficult since really no international observation was allowed," the top U.S. diplomat said.
"But really, the Mugabe regime is a disgrace to the people of Zimbabwe and a disgrace to southern Africa and to the continent of Africa as whole," she said.
Zimbabwe had barred observers traveling from the United States and the European Union and several international media organizations. The State Department said Friday the U.S. would field almost a dozen poll watchers for the elections and would report afterward on the electoral process and the results.
The department, in his annual accounting of human rights practices around the world, listed Zimbabwe this month as among abusers of human rights.
In January, the Bush administration imposed financial penalties on Zimbabwe's intelligence chief, Mugabe's nephew, as well as two companies accused of undermining democracy in the southern African country.
It was the government's latest move to apply more financial pressure on Mugabe, who over the years has become increasingly authoritarian, spearheading media control and takeovers of white-owned farms.
