On Monday, Whitney — who is staging a career comeback with the release of her album in 7 years, I Look To You – told Oprah that the crooner wasn’t physically abusive but that “he slapped me once but he got hit on the head three times by me.”

Whitney, 46, says she “was horrified he spit on me, in my face” and that left her “very hurt, very angry.”

The star says she was attracted to Brown, who she married in a lavish ceremony in 1992, because he had control in their relationship.

“He was my drug,” Whitney tells Oprah. “I didn’t do anything without him.” “Something happens to a man when a woman has that much fame. … I tried to play down all the time. I used to say, ‘I’m Mrs. Brown, don’t call me Houston.’”

Remember the Evil Stepmother who tormented her beautiful stepdaughter in the classic fairytale Cinderella? Ok, that’s Whitney Houston. The Grammy Award-winning pop diva spent years treating her stepson like a second-class citizen, twenty-two year old Landon Brown is telling The National Enquirer. Landon, the eldest son of R&B singer Bobby Brown, was recently voted off MTV’s reality hit Rock The Cradle, but according to him, being cast away is a feeling he’s visited a few times in his short journey through life.

In scathing Enquirer article, Landon blasts his former stepmother, accusing the music legend of never accepting him into her family. Landon says Whitney refused to allow him to sleep in her home, kept him away from his baby sister Bobbi Kristina, and even forced him to work as a security guard for her.

“Whitney and I never realy got along. She didn’t necessarily hate me, but she wouldn’t really speak to me either. In Whitney’s eyes, I was the stepchild-that’s how I was treated. I’d get harassed about cocaine rumors almost everyday at school.”

Landon describes growing up with Whitney as a “nightmare.” Tensions grew particularly worse once Landon moved in with Bobby and Whitney at the Mendham, New Jersey “I Will Always (Love You)” singer. Whitney prohibited young Landon from sleeping in the main house:

“Even if I feel asleep on the couch, Whitney would make my dad tell me to go sleep out in the studio house. There were two houses on the property. My dad would wake me up by tapping me on the shoulder and then he’d motion for me to go outside-she just didn’t want me staying in the main house.”

Landon says Whitney kept him away from his half sister, Bobbi Kristina, who is Whitney’s daughter with Bobby:

“It took a long time for me to get close to Krissy because no one would let me near her. Whitney’s assistants would say, ‘She needs space.’”

The aspiring singer says he was put to work as part of Whitney’s staff as soon as he was old enough to moonlight as a bodyguard:

“She decided to turn me into one of her security personnel. I was a teenager but I was walking around dressed up in all black with a Security shirt and she’d have me work for her. I was just another one of her staff.”

Bobbi Kris might be smoking her mother’s stash. Bobbi Kristina, the fifteen year old spawn of Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown, tried to stab her famous mother with a razor during a recent argument – and then attempted to kill herself by slashing her wrists.

Houston family friend, Ann Davis, tells celebrity tab The National Enquirer that the teen found herself in an Atlanta psych ward following the murder/suicide attempt at her fifteenth birthday party earlier this year.

“She tried to stab Whitney,” Ann told The Enquirer.

Bobby Brown is coming out with his autobiography The Truth, the Whole Truth and Nothing But…this May. Check out a few excerpts from the tell-all.

“I never used cocaine until after I met Whitney. Before then, I had experimented with other drugs, but marijuana was my drug of choice. At one point in my life, I used drugs uncontrollably. I was using everything I could get my hands on, from cocaine to heroin, weed, and cooked cocaine.”

On his marriage to Whitney Houston, he says:

“It was doomed from the very beginning. Within the first year we separated, with several more to follow. I think we got married for all the wrong reasons. Now, I realize Whitney had a different agenda than I did when we got married. I believe her agenda was to clean up her image, while mine was to be loved and have children.”
