Profit From Tragedy? Bobbi Kristina Brown's Cousin & Boyfriend Nick Gordon Start Tribute Tee-Shirt Line
Feb. 26 2015, Published 7:10 a.m. ET
Bobbi Kristina Brown continues to lie brain dead in an Atlanta hospital, but meanwhile her boyfriend Nick Gordon, and cousin Jerod Brown, have been feverishly discussing her plight on social media. After a slew of shocking comments and claims over the past few days, the duo dropped their biggest bomb yet: They're making a tee-shirt line dedicated to and featuring a photo of Whitney Houston's daughter!
Bobbi Kristina's aunt Tina Brown told RadarOnline.com that the family was horrified to learn the news. "He's doing it outside the family," she told Radar. "They shouldn't do that."
But Jerod insists he's only giving them away — "My own dime," he said. His goal is so "when she wakes up and see people tagging her with the shirt she's gonna know I played my part."
He reiterated the claim on Instagram Wednesday:
DAILY. BREAKING. CELEBRITY NEWS. ALL FREE.
Jerod continues to be friends with Gordon despite unanswered questions about what happened between Gordon and Bobbi Kristina in the days and hours before she was rushed to a hospital on January 31. Since then, her father, Bobby Brown, has refused to allow Gordon to visit his daughter's bedside until he meets certain "conditions," which reportedly include talking openly with investigators and the Brown family what happened.
Gordon pleaded Wednesday through his Twitter postings for Bobby to at least played a recording of him talking to Bobbi Kristina, so that she could hear his voice. He tweeted, "If her father @KingBobbyBrown (the Twitter handle for Bobby Brown) really cared about his daughter. Play a tape recorder with my voice her fav music LET HER WAKE UP".
