Lenny Kravitz

Why would that even possibly be a comparison?

*alike as chalk and cheese* is a really old expression for things that are absolutely NOT alike. (If that's what you're replying about--if not, just ignore me)

Lenny's mom and dad were supportive of his music. His mom is Roxie Roker (cousin of Al Roker); she was on The Jeffersons. I'm dating myself.

That is not what I was referring to, I had just read the thread on Bobbi Kristina and then I read this thread and the difference I was referring to is the way that their divorce didn't affect their child and the loving way that they bought their daughter up compared to the Brown/Houston break-up.

No probs, I won't comment anymore.

U can comment.

Personally, I think Boobbi Kris was affected by a lot more than just Whitney and Bobby's divorce. She was affected by all the drugs and garbage that was going on in that home all the years they were together.

Yeah. Also, Lent came from a tight knit, supportive family.

Does anybody know if Lisa's family was Bohemian? Or is that just her personal style?

Oh I know the expression and it's meaning. It just would never have crossed my head to ever compare these two families in a sentence together....lol.

Lenny and Lisa are also quite dedicated to being co-parents. Having your family involved regardless makes a major difference. Lisa wasn't the good girl with the bad boy rocker so they also had the advantage of no image to maintain. And as LadyBug said, the divorce was probably a small item in terms of Bobbi K's upbringing.

You aren't really dating yourself. Lenny has made it no secret the love he has for his mother and how close they were.

Here's a cute interview of the 2 of them together on the Arsenio Hall Show

Thanks so much for posting this interview. You can tell the love between them is just so sweet. Just sad that she didn't live long enough to see what Zoe turned out to be.

I love in the interview how she told them to take off the glasses with her Caribbean accent.

I didn't know that Lenny 's Mom is Al Roker's cousin. Wow!
