Grandmother worried about 'negative influence' of fortune on Bobbi

Cissy Houston is afraid her granddaughter Bobbi Kristina Brown will die in a "haze of drugs and other bad influences" like her mother Whitney Houston if she receives her multi-million dollar inheritance now.

The 79-year-old grandmother is reportedly concerned the 19-year-old aspiring actress will be corrupted by the "negative influences" in her life if she gets her hands on the reputed $20m estate Whitney - who died in February from the effects of heart disease and cocaine use - bequeathed to her.
