Well, it's not that I followed the lives of celebrities but I guess I did watch a lot of television in the 80s and 90s. She and Bobby Brown (who was a member of Boys II Men, an enormously popular R&B group from the late 80s) got together and became notorious for their drug use and subsequent legal troubles. They became a well-known cultural joke.
Here's an example: a sketch from MAD TV aired sometime in the 90s..
I don't care about that part of her past though, and I don't care about that 'I-E-I Will Always Love You' song.
I'll remember her as someone who wants to dance with somebody who loves her.
