Whitney Houston's mother, Cissy, has officially confirmed that she'll be writing a book that's set to tell all regarding her daughter's life and drug use and will put the record straight once and for all!

It's been revealed that the gospel singer has signed a multi-million dollar deal to write the 'honest' book to tell the tale of her daughter's life - following her death, after she was found in her bath after she'd drowned after cocaine use back in February.

Cissy said: ''When I lost my daughter Nippy [the nickname Whitney's family gave her], the world lost one of the most beautiful voices and an extraordinarily beautiful and charitable woman.

''In sharing our story in this book, I hope to give her fans something to treasure, the way we all treasured Whitney. We are still receiving thousands of letters each day from her fans, and I hope reading this book will provide a deeper understanding into my daughter's true story.''

Whitney had spiraled out of control, for the whole world to see and Cissy is keen for her issues to be raised so that people are 100% aware of what really happened.

A statement from Harper Collins, who are publishing the book, said: ''Ultimately, Cissy will go behind the headlines to show the true, human side of this strong, successful yet complicated musical icon, capturing the dramatic depths and soaring range of an extraordinary woman, along with the pain and heartbreak of a grieving mother as she struggles with impossible loss.''

A portion of the books profits, following it's release in February 2013, will be donated to the New Hope Baptist Church in Newark, New Jersey - where Whitney used to sing as a child.
