?I got an invitation to the party -- which is the most obscene thing,? Cissy told Access at the unveiling of four new wax statues of her legendary daughter at Madame Tussaud?s in New York City on Thursday. ?I don?t know why they would want me to come to the party in which she died, you know? Unheard of.?

?She?s grieving. (She?s) really grieving,? Cissy said. ?Bobbi Kris knows -- she better know -- that I love her. Anything I can do for her, I?ll be there. I wouldn?t say anything [bad] about my daughter. That?s MY daughter, whom I loved with all my heart.
?I love Krissy because she belongs to my daughter, all right?? she continued. ?I think that she?s just grieving. That?s the only other thing I can say about it.?
