The shocking images were taken by Tina in 2006, shot from inside Whitney's five-bedroom home on the outskirts of Atlanta. "There's little rocks of crack in the sink, and marijuana roaches," Tina told
The National ENQUIRER. "There are spoons with cocaine powder on them
because she cooks the cocaine to smoke it. When she's getting high, she just makes a huge mess."

Tina also revealed the tragic effect that drugs
had on the struggling star — who would become paranoid and make peepholes to find spy cameras. "She breaks everything," said Tina. "Mirrors, telephones, cabinets, any little appliance." Tina added that local drug dealers took advantage of her fortune, as she regularly purchased individual "eightballs" of rock cocaine roughly weighing an eighth of an ounce each.

"When she's high," said Tina, "she imagines demons are beating her but, in fact, she's biting herself and punching her body black and blue with her own fists...With me there, at least I made sure that she don't come out of the house." But that changed after Tina was arrested on drug charges herself — confessing: "I did crack with Whitney. The truth needs to come out."

"She was buying, like, an eight ball for $300," said Tina. "That's crazy. You can get it for $80. She was getting ripped off big time!" But, added Tina, Whitney was so ravaged by drugs that she had become an easy target for parasites. Tina spoke of
the secretly-bisexual beauty spending days amid piles of garbage smoking crack, using sex toys to satisfy herself and ignoring her personal hygiene.

Tina recalled calling her mom Carole Brown from inside jail, only to find that her mother was weeping. "A drug dealer had called Bobby and said, 'Come get your wife. I'm sick of this bitch. You need to come get your f--king wife. She's in here peeping out the windows and doing all kinds of sh-t in the house.'"

Tina gave up drugs and began to turn her life around in August 2005. She stopped by Whitney's house in early 2006, when she took photos after being repulsed by the remnants of the diva's latest drug binge. "Maybe this will save her life," said a hopeful Tina. Instead,
Whitney would be found dead in a bathtub shortly before a Grammys event in 2012.

The exclusive photos published by The ENQUIRER would make headlines again after
Kanye West licensed this disturbing picture to serve as the album cover for his protégé Pusha T. Damon Elliott, a cousin of Whitney's, slammed the artwork as a "disgusting" attempt at "a publicity stunt to sell records." But, sadly, the iconic photo also shows the horrific decline suffered by stars who indulge in the showbiz drug culture.
