Whitney Houston‘s only daughter, Bobbi Kristina has a very bright future ahead of her, Tyler Perry says. The film director, who recently worked with Bobbi on his TBS series For Better or Worse, was said to be surprised but also impressed on how Kristina takes the role so seriously and portrays the character, saying that she did a fantastic job.

Bobbi, who is currently filming her reality show – set to air on Lifetime next year – has recently said that she’d love to have a career in music, but she also loves acting. Tyler Perry told The Hollywood Reporter: “She did a fantastic job. And that kid has a such a future. She’s such an actor.

“I’m so proud of her. I’m telling you, as far as she wants to go in the business, she can. What I found when my mother died is you have to be around people that you trust,” he added.
