There's lots of things Bobby Brown should be in denial about: The drunk driving, the spousal abuse, the prison time, the Ghostbusters 2 cameo. Yet, that stuff makes it to the press and he basically keeps mum. The ex-Mr. Houston only draws the line when it comes to his thrombosis. Despite the fact that his own lawyer told the AP Bobby suffered a mild heart attack due to stress and diet, Brown claims it's all a joke:

"None of it's true. I went in for a checkup. The doc gave me a clean bill of health." [...]

"I did go to the hospital ... to just get a checkup, get everything tested out so that I could go on this tour, and everything is fine," Brown said.

He must be afraid that if the public perceives him as having a bum ticker, they might start thinking he's a generally troubled individual. Don't worry, Bobby. We'd never think that about you. Whatever happens to your heart, that's your prerogative. And look on the bright side— at least you didn't have a dootie-bubble stuck in your butt.
