Dionne Warwick is not having it with Earnest Pugh!

On Wednesday, the gospel star sent social media into a frenzy after he incorrectly announced the death of Whitney Houston’s mother. Social media users came across his Facebook post which included a picture of her with the caption that read, “Rest in peace Cissy Houston.”

Dionne wasted no time with clearing these false reports up. She took to Twitter and said, “My Aunt Cissy is very much alive. This Earnest Pugh needs to get a life and stay out of other peoples lives!” Gospel singer Kim Burrell also denied reports saying, “Please respect her life as she continues to live. She’s home. Thank you all🙏🏽” Earnest has since released an apology.

“Ms. Warwick please accept my sincere apologies for reposting such inaccurate info about Mother Cissy Houston. It was a ‘knee-jerk’ reaction to a post I saw about someone I love dearly. I meant no ill intent whatsoever and I take full accountability for my actions. You and the Houston Family are forever in my thoughts and prayers. May God continue to shower bountiful blessings upon Mother Cissy. Respectfully submitted. #Respect.”

Now, you all know that didn’t stop social media users from reacting to his now-deleted post.

One Twitter user said, “Y’all should’ve known Earnest Pugh wasn’t right when he took this picture of himself and acted like someone in his entourage took it. The reflection in the glasses tells it all😭” Another said, “Dionne Warwick telling “This Earnest Pugh” to get a life and stay out of people’s Iives is sending meeeee.” A third added, “Lawd! Earnest Pugh done posted that Cicely Houston is dead, but sis is still in the land of the living. 🤦🏾‍♂️ #fixitjesus.” On a more serious note, a fourth said, “That’s a fact he needs to… what an idiot #EarnestPugh has hurt this family and us all with his post.”
