They broke, and they needs money....yes I did say needs.:)

Well then, they NEEDS to not disrespect Left Eye. "This is what she would WANT us to do.....involve the fans!!". Pshhhhh.. :rolleyes:

Rozonda "Chilli" Thomas and Tionne "T-Boz" Watkins are looking to collaborate with a new voice, but the TLC stars insist they're not trying to replace the late Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes.

Spurt: What happened to Afrochic?

"R U The Girl" this "summer". :o

R U the Girl...this week. :o

It will be on Wednesday @ 8pm EST.

That Chilli has quite an appetite!

That's an understatement. :o LOL

LOL!

How was the show? I missed it. I was watching something else.

Was anyone else hurt by the fact that the opening said, "Who knows what could happen for this girl AND our group"? That just pierced my heart to hear them say that, they can't possibly have a future with that girl, it'd just be wrong. I know that you can't just sit like a bump on a log missing people, but after all the publicity over this NOT being about finding a Lisa replacement, to hear the statement threw me for a loop. :(

I've been following the whole story (thanx CyberTLCWorld!) and I agree that there's no better way to honor Lisa than to make a fan's dream come true. It was all about giving a fan the chance to sing with them and also to keep their name out there. But to say stuff like that, it makes you question. But I'll always stand behind my girls, I just hope they stop makin' it so hard.

On the upside, did anyone notice how as each girl walked into the audition, she introduced herself to the other girls, but the last one just walked past them all and sat down? And why did they all have to cut their eyes at whoever was singing? Just love your sister and then show attitude with your talent, not you twisted up lips!

I saw the show last night it was cool....they payed homage to Left Eye and talk about their life w/o her. From what I gathered their doinga greatest hits album and the girl who wins gets to record "1" song w/ them that's going to be featured on this album. This young woman will also have the opportunity to sing w/ them on stage as well. I'm in agreement w/ everyone you can't replace Left Eye or any other member of TLC for that matter.......so hopefully this "1" time opportunity is just a "1" time opportunity and perhaps this young woman can become her own super star. I hope TLC continues as a duo for real.

Last night? It only went off an hour ago! How'd you see it yesterday?

BTW, the greatest hits is already out. It came out overseas a year ago, and just started selling here not too long ago (I got mine last week, love the unreleased cut!)

Did anyone notice how the waitress looked at Chilli when she kept ordering all that food...I was like go head get it in...he he he
