Tyler Perry Says Bobbi Kristina Did Not Have A Meltdown On Set

Folks have been spreading rumors that Bobbi Kristina had a meltdown on the set of Tyler Perry's For Better or Worse now the director is defending her saying it never happened.

I woke up this morning to my publicist calling me saying that there were reports that Bobbi Kristina walked off the set of For Better or Worse.Not At All People!!!There is no way she could have walked of the set because we finished taping the season.

After Whitney's funeral Krissy and I spent a long time talking about her goals and dreams.She said she wants to act.That's when I decided to write her into For Better or Worse.I thought that there would be no better way for me to help her move through the grieving than by given her something to focus on.The one thing that I learned after my mother's death is that you have to keep busy and you have to be around people who you can trust so that when you do grieve you can do it in the safety and privacy of people that care.

We're there tough days for her?Yes of course.Not because of the acting or any job related issues but because of the fact that she had just lost her mother.Being someone who knows about losing their mother I know grief comes in different ways and you never know when it's going to hit you or how it's going to hit you for that matter.Some days you're smiling and happy and some days you're so broken that you can't stop crying.So yes she was grieving but grief aside she managed to finish her obligation and did a great job at the same time.

PLEASE LEAVE THIS BABY ALONE!!!!AND SHE IS A BABY!!!PLEASE STOP WITH THE LIES AND GIVE HER SOME TIME TO BREATHE AND GRIEVE.

Taj George Slams The Haters And Defends Husband Eddie Says He Didn't Get Caught Doing Anything

When former NFL star Eddie George was stopped by cops with 21 year old golfer Rachel Connor in his car people began speculating that the marriage is on the rocks.So it's safe to assume that she's leaving him right?WRONG!

During a radio interview recently Taj went off in a profanity rant when asked about the event.Why was her husband in the car with another woman at 2am? Taj revealed that Rachel is a close family friend and that Eddie was given her a ride home from the charity event.

It was a charity event. What party do you know that ends at 9? None The bottom line is that we have obviously arrived because we have been a topic on everybody's blog lately and all i'm saying is at least get it right.
