MORRISTOWN, N.J. (AP) - A New York City woman who wrote that Whitney Houston is her "supernatural reincarnated mother'' and has sent her a four-tiered cake, underwear and other gifts has been barred from contacting the singer.

A judge issued a temporary restraining order Thursday against Desiree D. Weeks, 36, in response to a lawsuit filed by Houston, who lives in Mendham, about 35 miles west of New York City. Weeks was not at the hearing.

Weeks began sending rambling letters to Houston's management company in August, calling Houston "Mommy'' and her "supernatural reincarnated mother.''

"Every chance I get I make it known I belong to Queen Whitney Houston,'' Weeks wrote in one letter.

She called Houston's 7-year-old daughter her "little sister'' and Houston's mother "Nana,'' Houston attorney Thomas Weisenbeck said. Weeks also sent Houston a bra and underwear, a makeup kit, Valentine's Day candy and the cake, with plates and utensils, Weisenbeck said.

The letters came with various return addresses, including the Bronx Psychiatric Center.

MORRISTOWN, N.J. (AP)- A New York city women who believes Whitney Houston is her "supernatural reincarnated mother" and has sent her gifts including underwear, a make-up kit, and a four-tiered cake has been barred by a judge from contacting the singer.

Superior Court Judge Kenneth C. Mackenzie issued a temporary restraining order Thursday against Desiree D. Weeks, 36, in response to a lawsuit filed by Houston, who lives in Mendam Township.

Weeks began sending rambling letters to Houston's management company, Nippy Inc. of Fort Lee, in August, calling Houston "Mommy" and her "supernatural reincarnated mother."

"Every chance I get I make it known I belong to Queen Whitney Houston," Weeks wrote in one letter.

Weeks called Houston's 7-year-old daughter, Bobbi Kristina Brown, her "little sister" and Houston's mother Cissy Houston "Nana," Houston's attorney Thomas Weisenback said.

Weeks sent Houston a bra and underwear, a make-up kit, Valentine's candy, and the cake with plates and utensils, Weisenback said.

The letters were postmarked with various return addresses in the Bronx. A letter dated August 6 came from the Bronx Psychiatric Center.

Mackenzie's order, which will be reviewed again on March 22, bans Weeks from contacting Houston, her husband, singer Bobby Brown, their daughter, Houston's mother, and employees at Nippy Inc. Weeks was not present at the hearing.

Mackenzie has issued two restraining orders in the past at Houston's request, one including a Jersey City man who believed he had 2 children with Houston, and another against a New York man who believed he was Houston's brother.
