I Love This Family SO Much

Whitney Houston, Bobby Brown, and Bobbi Kristina

Being Bobby Brown is an American reality television series that debuted on Bravo on June 30, 2005. Fans of Whitney and Bobby were absolutely crazy over this show. It was one of the very first reality tv series to hit the prime time tv. 

The series was a raw depiction the life of R&B singer Bobby Brown, his then-wife, pop/R&B superstar Whitney Houston, and their family. The program showcases the family's home time, along with shopping at the famed Harrod's of London (where they met with the owner Mohamed Al-Fayed), and vacationing in the Bahamas.

The program ran on Thursdays, but on occasion aired several times through the week. The highly rated show ran for only one season as Houston did not agree to a second season; thus, Brown and Bravo could not reach an agreement to continue the show.

While we were only able to see about six-months of footage, we were able to capture true moments of a Black family with fame and fortune. We cried, we laughed ( A LOT), and we became a little bit more empathic to the reality that celebrities have real problems, ups and downs.
