Bobbi Kristina Brown identified herself on Twitter as "Daughter of Queen WH", "Entertainer/Actress" and "LAST of a dying breed". She told Oprah Winfrey shortly after her mother's death in 2012 that she wanted to carry on her mother's legacy by singing, acting and dancing. But her career never took off. Producer and actor Tyler Perry said she had a future as an actress after her debut on his TV show For Better or Worse in 2012, but she only appeared in one episode. Aside from two ill-fated reality TV shows and the occasional paparazzi video, her image mostly showed up in the selfies she posted online. She did also attend award shows and appeared on red carpets with her mother and father. She performed a duet on TV with her mother in 2009, singing My Love Is Your Love in New York's Central Park.
Gordon is accused of assault, battery, intentional infliction of emotional distress, unjust enrichment and conversion. The suit seeks at least $10 million in damages, it is reported. The news of Bobbi Kristina's passing on Sunday came just weeks after it was revealed that someone was reportedly shopping around deathbed photos of the aspiring singer for a high price. The alleged existence of the photo – potentially offered to media outlets by a relative – was first revealed by Bobbi Kristina's paternal aunt Leola Brown, who expressed her disgust on Facebook. 'I'll tell you what! You took that picture thinking you gon get some money for it…and thats gon be it!' she wrote. 'Guess what!????!!!! I will myself if no one else does-see to it that -YOU be revealed!!!!' She added that she is going to make anyone who has visited Bobbi Kristina – including relatives on both sides of her family and other loved ones – take a lie detector test to track down the culprit.
Bobbi Kristina was hospitalized twice with anxiety just after her mother's death. It sadden our hearts to hear she's gone now. RIP Bobbi Kristina Brown.
