IT'S OFFICIAL WHITNEY HOUSTON DIED FROM DROWNING & COCAINE FOUND IN HER SYSTEM

The story gets sadder and sadder, because base on this she probably could have been saved.  Six weeks after Whitney Houston's unexpected death in a Beverly Hills hotel room on Feb. 11, on the eve of the Grammy Awards.


The coroner's have finally gotten the results of the toxicology tests and revealed the official cause of death as accidental drowning. 

According to the Associated Press, coroner spokesman Craig Harvey found cocaine and metabolites in Houston's system, indicative of a chronic cocaine user.


However, it is also being made clear that heart disease as a result of chronic cocaine use also had much to do with the superstar's demise.

Houston's sister-in-law, Patricia Houston, released the following statement: "We are saddened to learn the result of the toxicology results, although we are glad to now have closure." 

Whitney Houston was 48 years old at the time of her death.

RAY J DENIES WHITNEY SEX TAPE & EXPLAINS WHY HE DOES NOT GET ALONG WITH BOBBI KRISTINA

The king of sex tapes Ray J. denies any wrong doing in the latest installment of "F**CK WITH WHITNEY FROM THE GRAVE". Ray J is denying a new rumor that he’s looking to profit on a sex tape and several X-rated photos featuring the late Whitney Houston.  

A rep for the R&B star tells E! News that the “despicable tabloid report” is “not true,” adding that “there is no sex tape or explicit photos.”  

The gossip magazine “Star” has cited a source who says Houston’s family has spoken to Ray J about making sure that the photos and video aren’t made public.  “Star’s” report went on to say that Ray J is taking his time deciding what to do with the X-rated material because he knows he’s “sitting on a gold mine.”  

Ray J is no stranger to starring in sex tapes.  In 2007, he appeared alongside Kim Kardashian in an X-rated home movie that wound up spreading all over the Internet.

Ray J and Whitney Houston were said to be casually dating prior to her death. Sources say Ray J and Whitney’s only child, Bobbi Kristina, “absolutely didn’t get along. Ray thought Krissy was extremely disrespectful towards him and acted bratty. 

Whitney and Krissy would argue as any mother/daughter would, but Ray didn’t like the way she talked back to her mom. 


Ray really tried to meet Krissy halfway and have a relationship with her, but she just wasn’t interested. Ray understood that Krissy didn’t trust him, but she never gave him a chance,” a source close to the situation tells Radar.

At the urging of his sister , Ray has agreed to see a counselor to help him come to terms of Whitney’s unexpected death.” 


Ray J is obviously absolutely devastated by the loss of Whitney, who he says was the love of his life,” a source close to the situation tells RadarOnline. “Even though a month has passed since she died, Ray still can’t believe that Whitney is gone.

Brandy recognizes that she can only help her brother so much. Ray has promised Brandy he will see someone, however, knowing how Brandy is, she will probably find a mental health professional and make the arrangements for him.”
