Gee, Whitney - what took you so long?

OS ANGELES -
Whitney Houston has filed for divorce from her husband
Bobby Brown, her publicist told The Associated Press on Wednesday.

Publicist Nancy Seltzer declined to reveal where or when Houston filed the divorce papers, and said the singer had no statement to make.

"I can just confirm that she has filed for divorce," Seltzer said.

Houston and Brown, who wed in 1992, have had a sometimes tumultuous marriage, and rumors of their breakup have surfaced often over the years.

The couple, who live in Alpharetta, Ga., have one child, a 13-year-old daughter, Bobbi Kristina.

2. I wonder what finally made her wake up ...

So talented and lovely...and yet she marries a guy that seems a bit nuts and if the tabloids are to be believed...he introduces her to and gets her hooked on drugs...

I wish her only the best!
