I teared up when he mentioned Bobbi and talked about her mother. As a motherless daughter this breaks my heart.

It breaks my heart for Bobbi. I cannot imagine losing my mother. My heart goes out to her so much.

Used to be part of Arista. I'm gonna have to google where he's at now though b/c I'm drawing a blank.
jmonkey3152 18th-Feb-2012 06:59 pm (UTC)
No, that would be Jimmy Iovine.

Clive Davis is Arista.

cor77 18th-Feb-2012 07:00 pm (UTC)
I don't get it, Aretha's here but she's not here?
jmonkey3152 18th-Feb-2012 07:01 pm (UTC)
Lol she's not there at the funeral but she's there in spirit I guess.

It was reported that Aretha wouldn't be attending due to her health issues anyway. Maybe the lady didn't get the memo....
dirkismyhomeboy 18th-Feb-2012 07:01 pm (UTC)
But she is here.
