It's been five years since we heard new music from R&B diva Whitney Houston, and it looks like the wait is finally over. Houston posted her new song, 'Like I Never Left,' featuring Akon, on her official MySpace page this weekend. While the diva seems to be back to form, Akon struggles through an awkward verse as he attempts to sing on the same track as Houston. The songstress indirectly proclaims her return to the scene on the new single as she croons, "Yes, your girl is coming back" and "I want you to love me like I never left." Houston's upcoming album is due this fall.

After 15 years of marriage, Bobby Brown is tossing his ex-wife, R&B diva Whitney Houston, under the bus in his upcoming autobiography, 'Bobby Brown: The Truth, the Whole Truth and Nothing But,' due in stores next month.

"I never used cocaine until after I met Whitney. Before then, I had experimented with other drugs, but marijuana was my drug of choice," Brown writes in the book. "At one point in my life, I used drugs uncontrollably. I was using everything I could get my hands on, from cocaine to heroin, weed and cooked cocaine."

Brown's claim that Houston -- who vehemently denied drug use and proclaimed that "crack is wack" in a 2002 interview with Diane Sawyer -- introduced him to cocaine is definitely not a shocking affirmation, but it's definitely an indication that there's no chance the pair will be reconciling any time in the near future.

In a recent interview, Clive Davis discussed the progress of R&B diva Whitney Houston's highly anticipated upcoming album. The music executive and longtime supporter of Houston told Billboard that the singer has enlisted Will.i.am and Akon to help produce the follow-up to 2002's 'Just Whitney.'

"We're on track for a holiday release," Davis told Billboard. "We're not going to compromise who she is to fit into today's hip-hop radio market. The public wants Whitney material."

Davis went on to confirm that Houston has already completed four songs and another four tracks should be finished by the end of this month.

After much anticipation, Whitney Houston made her long-awaited comeback with a performance at the Live & Loud Festival in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia this past weekend. While her appearance was praised, some report that the R&B/pop diva had some trouble hitting and holding notes while singing her hits 'I Will Always Love You' and 'Heartbreak Hotel.'

Houston's original comeback was set to take place at the Swarovski Fashion Rocks event in London on October 18, but the songstress canceled at the last minute due to health issues.
