Burt Bacharach and his writing partner discovered Dionne Warwick in the sixties and wrote 22 of her top 40 songs. Of course, when Dionne got all dried up, she hosted the totally awesome TV show "Solid Gold". Oh, yes, we thought the Solid Gold dancers were hot. Dionne used her position to get her cousin Whitney Houston a shot at fame with an appearance on Solid Gold. Whitney got all famous and married Bobby Brown, who beat her like a drum. And of course, Bobby got her hooked on the crack pipe. In the final analysis, it's totally Burt Bacharach's fault that Whitney Houston got on the pipe. Watch him and tell me he's not on the pipe too:
Burt On Crack Whitney BEFORE Burt Bacharach:

Whitney AFTER Burt Bacharach:

The evidence is overwhelming.
