Whitney Houston gave another lackluster performance this time on X Factor Saturday night, but the performance had its problems. At the 2:17 mark Whitney’s strap breaks on the back of her dress. At the 2:30 mark Whitney noticed the wardrobe malfunction, and just kept on performing like a pro.

After her performance Whitney told host Dermot O’Leary:

"I sang myself out of my clothes."

Almost. I’m happy we didn’t have to see that happen.

Whitney still looks like a disheveled dazed former drug addict, pulled from the street, given a hot meal, a bath, new clothes, a haircut, and a microphone. The old superstar is gone, and all we have left is the afterbirth.

Whitney Houston, who is dating Ray J, is said to be extremely upset over reports that he got Monica Leon pregnant during the taping of his reality show. The Enquirer has the details:

A woman on Ray J’s new reality TV show claims the rapper got her pregnant during filming of his VH1 show For The Love Of Ray J, The ENQUIRER has learned exclusively.

As The ENQUIRER previously reported, the troubled pop star was furious when Ray J, 28, began taping a trashy reality show with the premise of finding the "perfect" woman for him.

Now Whitney’s worst nightmare has apparently come true.

Monica Leon, 22 – aka Danger – says she is carrying Ray J’s baby. She had sex with him during production, Monica says, and is now more than three months pregnant.

"There is no way the baby can be anyone’s but Ray J’s," Monica told The ENQUIRER in an exclusive interview.

The young mom-to-be told The ENQUIRER the unexpected pregnancy was an indirect result of the reality show’s too-close-for-comfort premise.

"I was locked in a mansion with him and 13 girls from October until the end of December," she said. "Toward the end of the first week of filming, we made love for the first time – and we slept together every night after that!

"I didn’t want to fall for Ray J, but he was so charming it became impossible not to. I was in love with him, and as strange as it might sound, I think he loved me."

In a shocking disclosure that will torture the 45-year-old Whitney, Monica says Ray J, the singer’s on-again, off-again boyfriend, always insisted he was "single" during production of the show.

"He said he wasn’t in a relationship and was genuinely looking for the one. He didn’t mention Whitney once the whole time he was with me."

We wouldn’t be at all surprised if this is true. Whitney always picks the players. Players can be as addictive, and bad for you, as crack.

Whitney Houston performed live at the Clive Davis pre-Grammy Award party on February 7. Her voice sounded amazing again. Welcome back Whitney!!!

I put up two videos in case one gets removed.

Over the weekend a rumor that Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown got back together was circulating. A rep for Whitney said the rumor was "a complete fabrication."

A new Whitney Houston comeback song was leaked, probably to test the response. The song is called Like I Never Left, and features Akon. The main line is "I want you to love me like I never left."

The song lacks enthusiasm, and sounds just okay. What do you think?
