Gossip maven CJ at the Star Tribune in Minneapolis is reporting that Bobby Brown has a new lady in his life.

Music executive Alicia Etheridge has reportedly been friendly with Bobby's ex-wife Whitney Houston for the past twelve years – that is, until she started dating Bobby B, CJ notes. Word has it that Brown and Etheridge are now shacking up.

CJ said Etheridge recently introduced herself as Bobby’s “manager.” The couple, according to columnist Janet Charlton, dined together at The Palm restaurant in West Hollywood Wednesday night.

According to a witness "He made a big deal out of introducing Alicia as his ‘girlfriend’ to the host, the bartender, and everyone he knew in the restaurant. He also introduced her to photographers outside. He acted very proud of her.”
