Bobby Brown: 'Bin Laden wants me dead'

R&B star Bobby Brown has claimed that Osama bin Laden wants to kill him.

The 'My Prerogative' singer insisted that he fears for his life because he believes that bin Laden wants to marry his estranged wife Whitney Houston.

Bin Laden is described by the US State Department as "one of the most significant sponsors of Islamic extremist activities in the world today".

A fearful Brown made the revelations on ITV's 24 Hours With...Bobby Brown, airing next month.

He said of Bin Laden: "He wanted to have me killed because he was in love with Whitney. He wanted to marry Whitney and make her one of his wives. That's some s**t.

"I feared for my life. I'm still on my guard. The most wanted man in the world wants (me) dead."
