Wow , I used to love TLC back in the day, their songs "Unpretty" and " No scrubs"really made waves back then. Can I still remember the lyrics ? Let me Try.
Scrub lyrics:I don't want no scrub, a scrub is a guy who can't get no love from me, sitting on the passengers side of his best friends ride, trying to holla at me!
I hope the lyrics ring a bell!
Reality for TLC’s T-Boz has been a challenge, starting at age 7, when she was diagnosed with sickle cell anemia.
“I was told I wouldn’t live past 30, I would be disabled my whole life and I would never become a mother,” T-Boz, a member of one of the most successful girl groups ever, told CNN. “My daughter is Chase. She’s 12. I’ve traveled the world in one of the best groups ever. I’m 42.”
Reality called again five years ago when doctors found a brain tumor, which left her partially blind and deaf.
“But after losing my sight, hearing, balance and speech, yes, I’m returning,” said T-Boz, whose real name is Tionne Watkins. “I had to take three years to heal and fight for everything that I wanted back.
T-Boz is sharing the lessons learned from hard reality in a reality TV show that premieres Tuesday night, coincidentally on a network with the same name as her group — TLC.
“It’s about 20 years later, me coming back from the brain tumor and doing things I want to do,” she said. “You’ll hear about all that in the show, my real-life struggles, being a single mother.
