Video! Bobby Brown Back on Stage Hours After Whitney's Funeral
Hours after Bobby Brown stopped by Whitney Houston's funeral -- he left early after a seating dispute -- Brown was back on stage to perform with New Edition in Connecticut.
According to TMZ, Brown, 43, has performed numerous times since his ex-wife's passing. Bobby gave another shout out to Whitney and called himself "bad ass Bobby Brown."
"I wanna give blessings to my ex-wife Whitney Houston. I love you," Brown said, pointing toward the sky. "I want to give blessings to my kids, my brothers and all of you. Thank you for the love."
After the show, Brown, some band mates, and a group of family and friends ate at Bobby Flay's restaurant Bar Americain, according to People.
After hitting up the restaurant, Brown and his entourage headed to the high rollers gambling area of the casino, where he briefly sat at a $500 minimum bet blackjack table. Onlookers noticed Brown stuck close by his fiancée, Alicia Ethridge, before calling it a night, at 2 AM.
