It's amazing because Bobby branched off on his own to rock the show for as long as he wanted. He couldn't do what he wanted to do when he was With (NE) He rocked my prerogative On that stage and gave acknowledgment to his New 2 dancers And showed out... I'm 23 and wish I was apart of that era but hey still I love it & grateful he showed us young men how to be confident and show us cool dudes it's cool be a "pretty boy" too!

And now finally we are appreciating Bobby's talents after all these years. Although him and Whitney loved each other but theyre not right for each other because of addiction! Bobby couldve made great things during the whole 90s but destiny has other plans.

Actually they was...he got caught up covering for her...pushing his career in the back at this time it was about bobby ...if he wasnt with whitney he would have focused on his career he was on top at that time ...bobby is a great guy then and now..media tarnished him to protect whitney image ...whitney was a hood girl everybody knows that that image was not her ...thats entertainment....they took people he loved away trying to destroy him ...pat was down with that n her brother side 👀 ing mom
