Bobby Brown’s Sister Spills Major Tea Over “Lies” Portrayed In “The Bobby Brown Story” + Drags His Wife
By: Elliah Dash-Stell
Is BET’s two-part special, “The Bobby Brown Story”, filled with piping hot lies?
The Boston Herald already stated that it seemed as though many scenes seem to set out to vilify Whitney, including one where Bobby suffers a stroke; in it, she kicks him.
Bobby Brown’s sister, Leolah Brown Muhammad, isn’t happy with the plot points, apparently. She took special aim at Bobby’s wife, Alicia Etheredge-Brown.
Bobby and Alicia married in 2012, five years after Brown and Whitney Houston finalized their divorce in 2007. The couple has three children, 9-year-old Cassius, 3-year-old Bodhi and 2-year-old Hendrix.
(Alicia is the ex-girlfriend of R&B super-producer Teddy Riley, who helped Bobby discover his signature sound on his smash sophomore album, Don’t Be Cruel.)
On-screen, Alicia is portrayed as a patient, loving woman who worked to get Bobby back on his feet spiritually, emotionally and financially after his devastating split from Whitney. But Leolah says this portray is far from factual.
“How the hell they gon do a movie about my brother Bobby Brown which includes his siblings and his so called wife (Alicia) is one of the dam producers???!!!!???,” she wrote on Facebook.

Leolah says because of that, the movie doesn’t accurately portray the family’s experience with one another.
When people in her comments section started to question her motives, Leolah responded saying she wouldn’t just sit around and “go along with the [expletive].”
Also, she claims she will be making her own rendition of the story, which will include several movies. Oh. Okay then?
“And I promise you they will be REAL & TRUE! And I don’t care if they are new to the industry! Key is, were going to make sure that the movie is telling the dam truth! And it will be so much BETTER anyways telling the dam truth! Why LIE???? Could of gotten a way better movie BY TELLING THE TRUTH! SMH…,” she penned.
But she alleges that she is only doing this because she loves her brother and is concerned for his safety; she thinks his life is “at stake.” Yup. She believes Alicia is trying to kill Bobby.

She also says that, at one point, Alicia wouldn’t allow Bobby to give his mother $17 for medicine she needed. (Carole Brown, Bobby’s mother, died in 2011, just one year before Whitney passed away.)

Check out Leolah’s social media rant below:
Hm. Bobby and Leolah seem to have experienced some bumps before. In 2015, she was escorted out of Bobbi Kristina’s funeral, after she reportedly tried to stop Pat Houston, Whitney’s sister-in-law, from walking to the podium.

Who is telling the truth? Bobby? Leolah? Neither?
