COLE OFFERS HOUSTON HELP

Natalie Cole, who once struggled with a drug problem, fears that Whitney Houston may be headed down a similar path, and is reaching out to the troubled pop diva. "I think she is isolated, and it's going to take a small miracle to be able to cut through some of this stuff," Cole tells Access Hollywood. "I guess [that is] kind of protecting her with good intentions, but she needs to be saved. The only thing I always say to Whitney is, 'Call me. You know my number.'"
