Whitney Treated to Free Shopping Spree


When your name is Whitney Houston (or any idolized celebrity, for that matter) you have a lot of perks regular folks don't have.

Free clothes anyone?

After her successful listening party in London, billionaire Sir Philip Green, owner of the Topshop chain of stores, gifted Whitney with a shopping spree -- she was free to take whatever she wanted for free. Anything!

“Whitney looked like a kid in a candy shop," a source told the London Evening Standard newspaper. "She met Sir Philip at a fashion show in 2007 and they have remained in touch.

“Sir Philip kept the shop open immediately after closing time, and gave all of the staff crisp £50 ($82) notes as a thank you for staying on.

“Whitney grabbed bags and bags of stuff, but only chose one item of clothing for herself. She was overheard saying her 16-year-old daughter Bobbi Kristina likes Topshop, so chose everything for her — except for a Union Jack cardigan which she chose for herself.

“Whitney looked ecstatic, and happily posed with staff for pictures and signed autographs for them.”

Must be nice.

We hope she declared all of that free stuff with Customs and report it on her taxes.
