    Whitney Houston's mother, Cissy Houston, said that super sexy pop star Rihanna will never play her late daughter in a biopic. Ma Houston reportedly said "Over my dead body" regarding this casting.

    Ma Houston disapproves of Rihanna’s reputation, particularly due to her image and the fact that she was in a abusive relationship with Chris Brown. Cissy wants to distance her daughter's memory from that image.
