    According to producer Rickey Minor (on 'Nightline' last night), the anthem she lip synched at the Super Bowl was was captured in two takes and contained only a couple of significant overdubs.

    Also, according to producer David Foster, she never would have recorded "I Will Always Love You" if it hadn't been for Kevin Costner, who suggested the Parton song for the "Bodyguard" soundtrack. Originally, Foster wanted her to do "I Who Have Nothing" as the movie's big number, but Houston wasn't feeling that track.

    I probably should have added that I haven't watched Whitney perform in almost a decade. But I swear I recall her tearing the place down in the throes of her addiction in the late-1990s and early 2000s.

    When Ryan "Waiting Overnight in Line for My Tickets to 'Fast and the Furious 12: 2 Furious 2 Quit'" Sonner is involved, I think I would more accurately dub it a food fight.

    Yeah, but I've had beers with Sonner. No food was thrown. Not even the crabcake sandwich he didn't finish.

    You mean the "crabcake sammich" he told everyone he was going to dominate?

    (With no energy to finish the sandwich, where is the energy to paint one's face?)

    Goddammit!

    Also, I made my triumphant return to that place a few weeks ago and finished what I started whenever the fuck that was.

    Eat shit, fuckers!

    I also owe Ruckus a beer. You know what? FUCK THAT! :)

    Not until you eat - and finish - the crabcake sandwich.
