Brandy Norwood and Monica Brown each jumped on Instagram yesterday to wish Whitney Houston a posthumous happy birthday. The legendary singer, who died of a drug overdose in 2012 , would have been 54 years old on Wednesday. Why is this noteworthy? Why are we writing about the seemingly innocent act of two artists acknowledging someone who has a great influence on their career? Because the birthday wishes devolved into a reignition of an old feud between Brandy and Monica, culminating in the former going off on an angry rant against all haters on Instagram. We’ll start with Monica’s message in honor of Houston. It included a black and white photo of the late superstar, along with the following caption: Happy Heavenly Birthday Nippy … You still inspire many & touch hearts daily… You will forever be the greatest …. You will forever be missed. Pretty simple and very sweet. A few hours later, Brandy shared a collection of photos of herself and Houston, writing a lengthy note alongside it that reads as follows: Lord have mercy on my soul!!! Happy Born Day Whitney. You live on in me… I can feel your Spirit inside of me and all around me. My angel, my friend, my fairy God Mother. I love you forever… thank you for trusting me with the torch!!! I remember every moment with you and I and I will cherish these miraculous moments forever and ever! I love you…. Also pretty simple and very sweet? Nope, not according to critics who destroyed Brandy for turning Whitney’s birthday into an occasion that celebrates her. (We’re not sure if we agree with each of the critiques below, but it is rather comical for Brandy to claim Houston passed her the “torch.” Has anyone ever considered Brandy to be the next Whitney Houston?!?) “There’s a BIG difference in Monica & Brandy’s posts about Whitney today,” wrote one Twitter user. “Only one of them was actually about Whitney.” Here’s a look at what a few others had to say: In response to these attacks, Brandy – who starred opposite Houston in a movie version of Cinderella and whose brother starred in the Kim Kardashian sex tape – wrote a long and bitter message to Monica and her supporters. And we mean LONG and BITTER. Get comfortable and check it out below: “Monica needs to really check her evil ass fans. “It’s so much stuff I can post about the hateful things they say to me… but I will never have time for that. Always thinking something is about her. It’s not!!!!… “Me and Whitney have nothing to do with anyone but the two of us…we made history and I cared more about being with her than I did about anything else. “I’m heartbroken that she isn’t here and the things I say about her are my true feelings and based on the things she said to me. “#Torch is a purpose and it is an understanding to help me get through the fact that she passed period the way she did and passed on my birthday. “I’m crushed for life because of it. It’s petty for everything that I say about Whitney for someone to have the audacity to think it’s about someone else other than her.” Brandy went on to suggest Monica stop her fans from attacking her, noting they’re “low key Brand fans anyway” and awesomely adding: “Come get your hating ass pigeons and put them in their place the way I did for you when the starz was out of place… “I’m not to be F–ked with today! If this was rap or hip hop you would be praised for speaking your mind but since it’s rnb you have to take the so called high road… “well because I can rap just look at this as my high road.” In conclusion, wrote Brandy: Too real to be fake and because this is my idols birthday, I’m allowed to defend my position in her life and hers in mine. That’s what I have to hold on to. This is easily our favorite feud of the year, and maybe of the decade. Whose side are YOU on?!?
Kim Kardashian appeared on The View for the first time in 5 years, and she talked about her strained relationship with Caitlyn Jenner . But after half a decade, she had a lot more to discuss — including her lifestyle and her family, and how everything's changed since the robbery. One of the keys to being a businesswoman is turning every disadvantage into an advantage. Apparently, Kim is applying this even to personal trauma. Because she's using having been robbed and fearing for her life to change things about her life. “I think in life, things happen to you for a reason and you really do have to pay attention and I got the message.” That can be a dangerous point of view. And a horrible thing to say to someone else who's just had a horrible experience. But a lot of people believe that, and it looks like Kim's one of them. “I just learned so much and something had to change just of how I live my life.” A lot of people reprioritize after a traumatic experience, especially one that they believed would claim their lives. “The things that were important to me before and the things I liked to show off before are definitely not the things I like to show off now.” One of those, of course, being sharing her location to the world. A lot of us do that without thinking. “Having dinner with” and then tagging your friends' Twitter handles is an innocuous way of keeping friends updated on your life. But if someone wanted to break into your home, they'd want to keep an eye on your tweets for just such an opportunity. For most of us, it wouldn't be worth the effort. Kim, on the other hand, has obscene amounts of money and some very expensive clothing and jewelry to go with it. Being robbed wasn't her fault, but it's a reminder to all of us to be careful with who knows what . Make sure that you're not the easiest target and they'll rob somebody else, basically. She's now terrified to let her kids grow up on social media. A lot of parents have that fear, and it's usually misplaced. In Kim's case, she's concerned because her children are famous. Non-celebrity young people might be bullied by peers, not harassed by literally thousands of trolls who are looking to feel powerful by making a famous person sad. Even Kim, an adult, isn't immune. “I do break down at times… It's not ok for people to be saying these awful things.” And one of the things that made her conscious of this and how it would impact her children was the Paris robbery, when people on social media suggested that she had faked the horrible event. “For us to just have these people that have all this keyboard courage to write the craziest things about you and to think that that's ok and it's not ok.” You know, keyboard courage is a good term. And for sure an insult. If you tweet something at someone, it should always be something that you would say to their face. Overall, being robbed as she was is very nearly a worst-case scenario in terms of the bad things that happen because of fame. So while it's good to take some lessons to heart, you also need to take some of this with a grain of salt. Hopefully, by the time that North is 13 — the age of being old enough to use social media is still 9 years away — Kim will have struck a balance. Being rich and famous has its cost, but we'd for sure want North to be able to interact with her peers. Twitter already allows you to keep your account private. Just saying.
