Whitney Houston’s Mom Says No to Rihanna

There has been rumors of an upcoming Whitney Houston movie. There have also been even more rumors that Rihanna will be the leading lady playing Whitney Houston! At a press conference for her debut film, Battleship, Rihanna shared her interest in playing the legend:

 “That would be something that I would have to give my entire life to do because I would want to really pull it off.”

However, as good as the news sounds, Cissy Houston, Whitney’s mother tells The Enquirer, Rihanna wouldn’t play her daughter over her dead body. She said that Rihanna represents everything that she didn’t like about her daughters life; drugs, partying, abusive relationships and boozing.

Cissy has a good point. Do you guys think Rihanna would do a good job playing Whitney Houston?
