BOBBY BROWN LOSES PARENTS IN ONE YEAR

US R&B singer-songwriter and somewhat controversial artiste Bobby Brown has lost his father, TMZ reports.

According to a family source, Bobby’s dad known as Herbert Brown but fondly called ‘Pop’ had been battling with cancer for a while. He died at the age of 82.

The New Edition singer and ex-husband of pop singer Whitney Houston revealed earlier this month that his father, who he called Pop, had been hospitalised and he thanked fans for all their ‘prayers’.

Brown, 42, also lost his mother, Carole back in January. She was 69.
