Former X-Factor contestant Stacy Francis recently tweeted an apology for her physical altercation with Whitney Houston that happened two days before she died. The singer had reportedly been talking to Houston’s ‘on-again-off-again’ boyfriend Ray J (although their relationship is speculation as well). Their run-in happened when Francis ran up to Houston and Ray J and shouted, “This is my man! I’m a cougar!” provoking an intoxicated Houston to shove her in the forehead.
