R&B crooner Bobby Brown wants everyone to know that he's not dead. The former New Edition frontman made a surprise call into Atlanta's V103 radio station to clear up the rumor. "I'm not dead," he said. "I couldn't tell you [where the story started]. I heard about it yesterday and you know, I brushed it off."
