Her I tried to multi-quote but it didn't work - did not want to just single you out katydid lol.
Anyway, I see your and other posters' points, but I feel like, having grown up with extremely famous parents, who also went on to have a reality show, this is probably really the only thing Krissy ever knew how to do. So while she did seek public notoriety, if that's the environment she grew up in, and knew best, it's almost as if it's not even a freely made choice, kwim? It was sort of a foregone conclusion from how she was raised.
I feel very sad for her - I don't think she knew how to do anything else but seek notoriety, and I don't think, given her environment, that she would have even had the desire to. :/

Sadly BK was born to two talented individuals AFTER the pinnacles of their individual careers. Just a quick look at any epi of
Being Bobby Brown sez it all, not to mention that horrid
Houstons: On Our Own reality tv show in which Krissi was a key figure yet not credited as such. Without her, PH would have had far less chance - if any - to sell that series. It bombed, as it should have...imo, exploitative of BK's experience to the max. :-/
Not to get into a whole lot of armchair psych evaluation, but it has always been my strong belief that WH suffered from a lifelong insecurity (and all that implies), despite her natural gifts. For Krissi, not the same...but similar considering her environment. Her reality was so skewed by her Mother's fall, and sadly resulted in her thinking that she was entitled by birth to succeed with the same fame, or to carry it on. Unfortunately, BK was not gifted like her Mother (who else *could* be...WH was exceptional). As much as ppl on social media cruelly dissed her for her looks and more, as many gave her false hope by saying how much she looked JUST like her Mom, could sing just like her, and so forth. I think Krissi knew the truth, no matter how much she self-promoted. :-(
I like to think that had Krissi had better aunties including many of us here, she may have eventually found her way. She seemed to have a great love for animals...perhaps she could have setup and managed a rescue or such an organization. Something SHE felt strongly about. Her own thing. Perhaps even being a Mom herself.
Every day that there is no real news about her condition, I feel more hopeful or even lighthearted, but that's a trick of the mind. I cannot deny the reality that has faced me - all of us - since last Saturday morning...a tragedy yet without a final curtain, but soon, I expect.
My apologies, Gardenlady, for rambling on...your post got me to thinking and so I typed...thank you again.
