The legendary exec said the fling lasted one year and is featured in the singer’s upcoming biopic “I Wanna Dance with Somebody.”
The film, which premieres on Friday, chronicles Houston’s chart-topping success, and the highs and lows of her personal life, including motherhood, her drug addiction and tumultuous marriage to singer Bobby Brown.
Davis told “Extra” the film highlighted her relationship with Crawford, in part, because “there’d been so many articles that have attempted to trace her addiction to being a frustrated lesbian — that she never dated a man before she met Bobby, all of which was totally inaccurate,” he said.This isn’t the first time the rumor has been addressed since Houston passed away in 2012. Crawford alsoin her 2019 memoir “A Song for You: My Life with Whitney Houston.

We never talked labels, like lesbian or gay. We just lived our lives, and I hoped it could go on that way forever,” she said. Crawford and Houston’s physical relationship ended by 1982 when the singer started focusing on her singing career. She later dated Jermaine Jackson, who is also mentioned in the film. She married Brown in 1992.“She and I were pretty in sync on almost every issue. I’m proud and I believe Whitney would be proud too,” Davis concluded.
