Bobby Brown Penning a Memoir

Back in 2008 Bobby Brown wrote a tell-all book about his life with Whitney Houston where he claimed she only married him to quiet the gay rumors and that she introduced him to cocaine.

While that book never saw the light of day. Bobby has signed on to write another one.  Dey Street Books announced yesterday that Bobby Brown was writing a ‘raw and unvarnished’ memoir and would “tell the full story of his life and set the record straight, particularly about his relationship with Whitney Houston.”

Bobby Brown’s book ‘My Prerogative’ is due out next June.

Matt Barnes Addresses Derrick Fisher Incident

Matt Barnes made headlines yesterday when he reportedly confronted former friend Derrick Fisher over his estranged wife, Gloria Govan.  He told ESPN that he went to his former home with Gloria to check on his sons out of concern after a facetime session where one mentioned Derek was at the house.  At 10pm.  Matt also said he only drove 15 minutes tt he house, not 95 miles.  Check his account below:

According to Barnes he had no intentions of driving to his ex wife’s house to confront Fisher, he was actually going to check on his son. Barnes says that he got a text from his son, who was at home with his ex-wife, and immediately his concern rose. I’m like, first of all, why are you still up? It’s like 10 o’clock at night?’ ” Barnes said. “So I text back, ‘I love you and I miss you, too.’ Then I Face-Timed him. I’m just like, ‘Hey, what’s up buddy?'” Barnes went on to say that he knew something was wrong when his normally “rambunctious” 6-year old wasn’t acting as himself.

“When I saw his face, he was just sitting there, and I knew something was wrong. I was like, ‘What’s wrong, Carter?’ and he shook his head, ‘No.’ Then he lays his head down on the couch, puts a pillow in front of his face and says, ‘Mommy’s friend Derek is here.’ Noting that he could see the look in his son’s eyes.

Barnes also wants to clear up the “driving an hour and a half” rumors. I can’t believe people think I was some maniac driving 95 miles and listening to Tupac to go beat somebody up,” Barnes said. “No. I live 15 minutes away, and I was going over to check on my kids because they seemed uncomfortable. That was my main reason for going over there.” On his relationship with Fisher, Barnes says that they were once “close friends” but “some things” have happened to change that.

Matt Barnes Attacks Derek Fisher Over Estranged Wife

The New York Post is reporting that Matt Barnes and Derrick Fisher were involved in an altercation at Gloria Govan’s (Matt’s ex-wife) home in Los Angeles on Saturday night after Barnes discovered that Fisher was there. A source told the Post that Barnes drove 95 miles from Santa Barbara, Calif.—where the Grizzlies are holding training camp—to Los Angeles to “beat the shit” out of Fisher, who has reportedly been dating Govan for “a few months.” It doesn’t sound like Barnes was successful, but it does sound like he tried to go after Fisher.

“Matt came after Derek but he only had a few scratches,” the source told the Post. “Derek’s not going to press charges. He’s going to let it go.”

A representative for the Knicks refused to comment on the report, but it’s worth noting that Fisher was not at the Knicks’ practice on Monday due to “personal reasons”:
