Whitney Houston's mother to write a book on her

Highlights

• Whitney Houston’s mother Cissy is reportedly planning to write a book about her daughter.
• The family matriarch met with publishers in New York this week to discuss the possibility of creating a tome about the My Love is Your Love hitmaker, who was found dead in a bath tub at the Beverly Hilton hotel in February.
• A source told the New York Times Cissy was prepared to wright “the bad and the good” side of Whitney.
• Two of the publishers who met with her at the St. Regis Hotel in New York claimed she was reluctant to discuss her daughter’s death or drug habit.
• Another publicist added: “She said, ‘There are so many lies out there and I want to dispel all of those lies.’ ”
• Cissy previously wrote her own memoir in 1998 entitled How Sweet the Sound and told the tale of her upbringing in a religious family and her introduction to gospel music – which eventually led to her working as a backup singer for Elvis Presley with group the Sweet Inspirations.
• It is believed she will use a ghost writer to pen the new book.
