Bobbi Kristina Brown's cocaine scandal: Whitney Houston's daughter speaks out

Bobbi Kristina, the daughter of Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown, has allegedly been photographed sniffing cocaine. The pictures of Bobbi Kristina are in the March issue of the National Enquirer and show her snorting a powdery substance that is believed to be crack cocaine.

Less than 24 hours after the pictures hit the web, Bobbi, 17, released a statement blaming her bitter ex-boyfriend. Here is the statement (via Twitter) in full:

"The pictures_ a former very dear person to me did this. Set me up to make it look exactly what it looks like. God will smite them yes..But it's really not what it looks like.. People will do anything for money which is extremely sad, and I'm very hurt by this.Thing's people do these days to hurt others is a shame. All I can do now, is keep my head up high, keep looking towards the lord.All the lord is telling me is be still. That's all, and that's exactly what I'm going to do. #BeStill.

I love my family so much. My mom just comforted me to the max, and I'm so thankful for her. Thank you so much lord for blessing me with an Phenomenal family and incredibly phenomenal mother. Thank you for giving me the strength to move forward and put things in the past.

And the person that did this was a result of a horrible relationship that went sour. I was in love_ he was in love with money. I've learned My lesson. I'm so much greater and blessed for it today, and I believe nothing less. That is the last I will speak of this, let's praise god And be greatful and thankful for your family, and people that truly love you, strength, courage, and life lessons learned. GodblessUall «3"

This isn't Bobbi's first picture scandal. Back in December 2010, pictures surfaced of Bobbi drinking Four Loko, a high alcohol, high energy drink. Bobbi recently walked the red carpet with her mother at the 2011 Pre-Grammy Gala And Salute To Industry Icons.
