Clive Davis just inked a big bucks deal to write his autobiography which will include a section on Whitney Houston.
Music mogul Clive Davis will lift the lid on his five-decade-long career in the music business after landing a huge deal with Simon and Schuster to pen his autobiography.
We are told the tome will be released in February 2013, written with Rolling Stone contributor Anthony DeCurtis. According to a source, the book will be filled with revelations from Davis’ career, including insight into his relationship with the late Whitney Houston and the highs and lows of their creative partnership.
It will also tell how he insisted a young Bruce Springsteen add more singles to his debut, “Greetings From Asbury Park, NJ,” prompting The Boss to go back to the drawing board. Springsteen himself later said, “I went to the beach and wrote ‘Blinded by the Light’ and ‘Spirit in the Night’ . . . That was a good call. They ended up being two of my favorite songs on the record.”
The book will also describe an encounter with John Lennon in an Upper West Side coffee shop where the former Beatle revealed he never listened to contemporary music, saying, “Clive, do you think Picasso went to the galleries to see what’s being painted before he put a brush to canvas?” It will also describe how Janis Joplin propositioned Davis to go to bed with her to celebrate the signing of her contract. Davis and Joplin remained close until her death.Jacked from Page Six

Is Devil C also gonna recount the numerous sexual rituals for initiating his prized slaves into mainstream music and how the staff would pray to Lucifer to inject demons into the masters of extremely popular songs?

now i know why Bruce Springsteen said "we take care of our own" that night at the Grammys right after Whitney Houston died. Madonna at Superbowl and Lady Gaga making "Born this way" and dedicating it to Whitney Houston. they all knew it was gonna happen and they had the ritual at Clive's Grammy Party, while WH body was still in the bldg. i knew the music industry was sick, but this is crazy.
