While the world is excited to see the Whitney Houston biopic, there is one person that isn’t counting down the days until the premiere.
Houston’s daughter, Bobbi Kristina, is not too keen on the new project and it seems that her anger and frustration stems from not being able to portray her late mother in the new film.
In a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly, Angela Bassett, who will be directing the film, said that she never even contemplated putting Bobbi in front of the camera.
"I did not think about casting her,” the actress said. “And probably for a number of reasons, you know. One being that she's not an actress. I know she's acted here and there. I know she's been on their family's reality show, but she's not an actress and acting is a craft."
She said that with the fast pace of the shooting schedule she needed someone who had an acting background.
“This is a very fast-paced schedule; we have just 21 days to tell this story. It's more than just saying lines and turning the light on. You have to drive the story—there's a technical aspect."
It appears that Bobbi didn’t take the comments to well, and vented her anger on her Twitter page.
The 21-year-old posted the following message to the social media site but has since deleted it.
“Ha MsAng ‘bassketcase’ has such a damn nerve my lord, at least the world doesn’t mistake me for the wrong sex… she has some #XtraEquipment.”
She followed that message up with another tweet which she hasn’t deleted as of yet.
When I win my first Grammy or Oscar, *Shrugs* hmm whichever comes1st, I'll be sure 2shout URname out bitch !
So who did Kristina lose the role too?
It was reported earlier this month that Yaya DeCosta from All My Children and America’s Next Top Model fame would be playing the award-winning songstress in the biopic.
