Bin Laden ‘obsessed with singer Houston’

AL-QAIDA chief Osama bin Laden was obsessed with singer Whitney Houston and wanted to marry her, a new book claims.

Kola Boof, a Sudanese poet and novelist who says she was kept against her will as the terror boss’s mistress in 1996, writes in her autobiography that he wanted to give the star a mansion and make her one of his wives.

“He told me that Whitney Houston was the most beautiful woman he’d ever seen,” Ms Boof claims in Diary of a Lost Girl, excerpts of which are published in Harper’s magazine.
