The directorial debut of Angela Bassett is this Saturday at 7pm  with the airing of her story about Whitney Houston on Lifetime.  It’s simply titled Whitney. The movie didn’t have the Houston family’s approval. They wanted to see something on the big screen, but Angela worked with Whitney on Waiting to Exhale. She said she talked to friends, co-workers and other family of Whitney to comprise a truthful story of her and Bobby Brown’s relationship. Bobby will be interviewed at 9pm on Lifetime following the movie on Saturday.
