Catfish Wilkerson’s late night creep is denying reports that she was uninvited from attending Whitney Houston’s funeral due to comments she made about parenting last Friday on NBC’s “Today” show, saying that her comment about parents making sure children “leave home prepared” was taken out of context.
“Cissy Houston and I have been longtime friends for almost 50 years. I have four invitations and parking passes that were sent to me for the funeral,” Franklin said. “Cissy does not need ridiculous speculation and neither do I — particularly at this time.”
Franklin also said her full statement included the comment, “This is no reflection on Cissy or Nippy’s upbringing,” using a nickname for Houston. That comment wasn’t aired, she said.
“Knowing Cissy as well as I do, I know Whitney left home right and properly. I was generalizing and it was a well-intended statement for any young adult coming into the music industry,” she said. “I was not speaking of anyone specifically.” (source)
I specifically chose this picture of ReRe The Body because I can hear Nippy screaming out “kiss my ass!” from above. Heaven I need a hug.
