6. Good girl goes bad   乖乖女变坏 　　

As the ’90s wore on and the new decade loomed, Houston’s good girl image shifted. Her 1992 marriage to R&B singer Bobby Brown changed her behavior, and in 2000, she had her first run-in with the law. Authorities in Hawaii found nearly half an ounce of marijuana in her bag at an airport but she and Brown boarded a plane before they could be arrested. Charges were later dropped. Somewhat fittingly, her current hit was “It’s Not Right But It’s OK.” 　　


九十年代之后，惠特尼不再是乖乖女形象。1992年她嫁给了蓝调歌手鲍比·布朗，这桩婚姻改变了她。2000年，她与法律首度较量，夏威夷当局在机场检查她的包时，发现了近半盎司大麻，但他和丈夫赶在警察之前登上了飞机。之后，指控被取消。她的情况正如她当时的热销歌曲《尽管不对，但是还好》（It’s Not Right But It’s OK）。

7. “Crack is whack.”   一失足成千古恨。 　　


Amid rumors of drug use, in 2002, Houston sat down for an interview with ABC News’ Diane Sawyer. She alluded to having used cocaine, pills, and marijuana, but drew the line at crack in what turned into an infamous rant. ”First of all, let’s get one thing straight,” she told Sawyer. “Crack is cheap. I make too much money to ever smoke crack. Let’s get that straight. OK? We don’t do crack. We don’t do that. Crack is whack.” 　　


2002年，深陷吸毒丑闻的惠特尼接受了ABC新闻主持人戴安·索耶的采访。她提及曾吸食可卡因、口服片剂和大麻，但可卡因药丸一词触及她的痛处，采访演化成一场令她声名狼藉的咆哮。“首先，让我们直话直说，” 她告诉索耶，“可卡因药丸便宜， 我挣钱就为吸食它。我们直说好了！不要说风凉话，不要这样做。一失足成千古恨。”
