Because most think having kids without commitment binds you to them and that they can *hit it* anytime they get good and ready as long you keep on being foolish.
This is why it's important to develop an identity outside of relationships. Fall in love with your self before you try to fall in love with someone else.
She’s so strong and a survivor! She had a lot of health problems, heart ache, and financial troubles, but still got through them!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 amazing! RIH left eye!🙏🏾🙏🏾
Tionne is genuinely sweet. I have Sickle Cell also and I’m currently undergoing intensive chemotherapy and I’ve had the pleasure of working with her alongside the Sickle Cell Disease Association of America.
I LOVE T-Boz. I have Sickle Cell Anemia myself. I used to think I would never live past 25-30. I will be 36 next month. She has always been my true inspiration. I wish her nothing but the best. Plus good health, prosperity and happiness.♥️
I have sickle cell as well.... I was told I wouldn’t live past 13 years of age.... I’m now 49 years old! We serve a Great God! He has always been my Hope 🌹🍃
David Chatman it is childish and irresponsible to hurt women just because some other women hurt you. Would a woman be justified in harming you, just because another man harmed her? Better yet, why do you seem like another man-child who beats up, sexually harasses, and tries to make women “stay in their place” with abusive behavior. Shut up. Most men feel no empathy. That’s why you end up getting hurt by the ONE WOMAN you finally tried to love and respect. It’s called Karma.
Cracked her jaw and broke her eye socket 👀 but then continued dating him. 😳 I pray she finds her perfect love. She was definitely my fav. Such a cool vibe.
Is there a perfect love for such a person?? She beat that woman, a woman HER man invited. But continued to date ▶️HIM. Like is she sick or a bully I'm confused.😅
Cherry starburst88 This is true I used to love those ladies, butthe more I learn about T B oz the less I like her. I still support and. respect a for all the work she’s done to bring awareness of Sickle cell. Whenever I disclosed y sickle cell diagnosis, some people said they never heard of it. Well, after TBOZ they say, isn’t that the same disease as TBoz. She definitely helped with that. Hopefully she is a better person nowadays.
@@Msboochie2 I know what you mean.Sickle cell runs in my family.My mom has it and everyone always bring up the disease T-Boz has to her as well.Chilli's attitude is worst and we have the same Birthday but it can't be a pisces thing.lol
TLC trusted numerous ppl and they got pimped out not receiving their due money and when they realized it they went straight gangster on said ppl (they wasn't the first or worst and they're not the last) and after that they became Taboo to some 😐 I don't blame them bc they got done extremely dirty for all the work & dedication they put in. Same thing happened to Toni Braxton bc she dealt with some of the same ppl in the beginning of her career 😌.
It happens becomes there arent enough men on our level. Think about it: we outnumber black men 2:1, date other, gay men, thugs/jail birds. There arent enough to go around. So we date down. If not, we will be successful and lonely
It’s a sad vicious cycle. I can’t speak for all black woman but in the Nigerian community, women are treated badly by their husbands so they raise their daughters, resenting them but mitigating for men. It is often believed that if a man isn’t behaving well it’s a result of the woman’s misconduct. In order for the woman to raise her profile as a good person in her community she tolerates bad behaviour from her man. A woman isn’t judged by her academic achievements or her career, but by her ability to have children and stay in a marriage. Daughters witness this behaviour and learn to believe it’s the norm. Marriage is not seen as something that is supposed to bring happiness, but something we have to tolerate as there’s no such thing as perfection. Not only do they witness it, they are taught it by elders of their community. They are told that waiting for perfection is unrealistic and they are ridiculed as being picky, not serious or having pathetic expectations. As a result, they end up marrying down.
Y'all sure had a lot of her personal information in this video. I had no idea that she experienced all of that. I wish her well. They got cheated out of a lot of money earlier in their career.
She finally adopted the son she always wanted, I'm so happy for her. I remember watching an episode of her reality show where she talked about adopting a baby boy. I love T-boz, she is my favorite of the group although I have mad love for all of the girls. I donated money to the sickle cell foundation in honor of T-boz. We conversed on Twitter and she was so pleased.
@@AndriaaLeoLove Sometimes a woman wants another child and there's nothing wrong with that. I wouldn't say her daughter wasn't enough as I'm sure she loves her daughter very much. Perhaps she always wanted two kids and now she has the son she wanted.
Mack was the worse one compared to all the other guys . Saying u will knock her teeth down her throat . Smfh . At least she got her miracle baby out of it.
T’Boz always been Beautiful and I love how strong she is and spiritually connected, that’s what has kept her alive and overcoming the adversities of her disease that she deals with, she’s a true queen 👑
I know a lot of the photos of her are filtered or heavily edited but you can't deny she's a very gorgeous woman, all of the 3 girls from TLC were really
REST IN PEACE TO THE BOY PRODIGY ( MOBB DEEP) He understood where she was coming from having to live with that disease as well unfortunately he lost his fight with it. But i know they was cool with eachother somewhat.
The management of TLC robbed them dry & when i found out it broke my heart. The girls marked my teenage yrs with their style music attitude & presence. I feel for her 😢
Not surprised by her dating history because everyone goes through things when dating. But I'm happy that she recovered from the brain tumour. Her daughter is beautiful and happy she finally got to adopt her baby boy. She's a lovely woman. Wishing her all the joy that life brings to her and her family. 😘
Whooooooooooooo I had no clue T-Boz had been through so much! 😩 She is definitely a strong woman. I thoroughly enjoyed this story. TLC was part of the good music era. 😍
I wish her all the happiness in the world. My auntie passed away from sickle cell in August of 2021 at the age of 44. So I understand the health struggles she is going through.
That woman is a FIGHTER on all fronts! I wish her peace & happiness! SN: I used to be SO envious of her growing up because she was/is just effortlessly BEAUTIFUL 😩🙌🏾. Wasn’t she on People’s “Most Beautiful People” list sometime in the 90’s?
I remember when she was seeing Takeo Spikes, when he played for the football team the Buffalo Bill's. I'm from Buffalo, and I became a quick fan of Takeo. I also remember them being on this crazy show. It was about athletes and their girlfriends knowledge of each other's likes and dislikes but mainly about if that athlete would marry their girlfriend's. T-Boz and Takeo had an episode and Takeo was asked if he would marry T-Boz anytime soon and never really answered the question, just laughed a lot! I could see the pain on T-Bozs' face. And soon after, there relationship ended. I'll never forget that.
When their 1st album came out, T-Boz was my 1st TLC crush, the is was Chili on the 2nd album & Lefteye was my crush from Fanmail up until her tragic death but I have always loved T-Boz's voice
She didn’t want to live with him before getting married but it was ok to get pregnant before getting married? These women create their own world of contradiction.
Right agreed exactly👏💯 because there is no way in hell I would let a man put a baby inside of me before marrying me and making me his wife first. Even though I am already married I would have never allowed my husband to do this.
That side eye for T-boz getting kicked out for being light skinned wasn't necessary. I've seen those things happen a few times in the 80's. Being light skinned was usually confused with being weak. So people tried you. I don't know about now but that was a thing.
My mother told me horror stories from her childhood because she was pale skinned…whiter then the usual light skinned and had straight hair so girls would try and jump her. One put gum in her hair. She had to fight almost everyday and felt she didn’t belong in the black or white community. My mother don’t know what she is mixed with, she never knew her father all she knew was her black side…it’s truly sad and sickening about the trauma that people endure because of their skin tone
@@phoenixsinclair2959 : I experienced the very same thing except it wasn't the gum thing. But I would constantly get my hair touched constantly by other kids. And I was told that I was too light to be black so, my aunt had to make me play outside in the sun just for my skin to get tanned.
T-Boz cracked the Dalvin's ex-girlfriend's jaw and broke her eye socket. I can just about imagine what that woman looked like after T-Boz was finish with her. I love T-Boz. She's my favorite in TLC. She has truly defeated all odds.
❌ She ain't Lying about that fighting because TLC got into a fight with my sister's friend in the mall behind taking pictures. This was in San Antonio, in the 90s. ❌
Complimented her "pretty eye brows". The things that make us swoon when the self esteem isn't in check. That wedding looked hot AF. You have to stay hydrated with sickle cell. Bless her.
This was good but it triggered me I lost my bf last year to sickle cell she was only 39. She has a husband and 2 sons who along with myself miss her dearly. On a positive note I am glad the TBoz is still pushing thru after so much she has been thru 🙏
Tionne is a true beauty. She is her mother’s twin! She is a walking testimony of God’s grace and mercy! I will forever love TLC as I grew up listening to them from the 90s!
TBoz is absolutely stunning… and from the stories I’ve heard, she is genuine, loyal and her heart is pure. Everyone deserves true love, and true love isn’t supposed to hurt💜💜💜
I remember in high school kids would call me T-Boz because I had the hair cut, dressed in baggy clothes, we looked some what alike and not a positive but a negative, she and I share Sickle CELL alike. Everything seem so strange that Our lives were so similar to one another. The only thing I didn't get was to become a RnB singer of a famous world singing group. That's ok,I had and still have a blessed life. 🤗🤗👌
Tionne "T-Boz" Watkins is my birthday partner, we share the same birthday, just 13yrs apart exactly! I thought her relationship with Mr. Dalvin was too cute despite it being toxic! I absolutely love her so much..🥰❤
Yeah she has endured a lot with the cicklecell anemia Tony Braxton has that too they are strong sisters and that is a blessing to be able to over come that you are still living and look great that is God's grace and His goodness that brought her safe this far Amen
Her classic hair do was the iconic look, it was the equivalent of "the Rachel"...creep video hair do or their first album what about your friends video's hair do for reference of the look.
I loved the group TLC and all of their music. R.I.P Left Eye. I was 13 when they first came out in 1992. Every song brings back wonderful memories even when I was going through my somewhat depressing adolescence.
This young lady has had a tough life and it's sad that she has had to endure so much pain. There really are no words. I've had a brain 🧠 tumor and 2 surgeries to remove it, so I can understand some of what she went through. All I can really do is pray 🙏 for her and ask God to make her life better! Don't stop writing. Maybe a book of Personal Poetry might help. Although I never published anything, writing about the issues of my life has helped me cope with anger and stress throughout my life! ✌️🙏
My girl. I loved this group. I always had a special place in my heart for tboz because I suffer from the same illness she does. I was diagnosed at 2 when we were stationed in Okinawa Japan. I was also told I wouldn't live past 30 and shouldn't have kids,I'm tboz's age. Thanks to the great dad I had who told me I can still be whatever I want n do whatever anybody else xan. I didn't tell anyone,not even my best friend or boyfriend's about my illness because I didn't wanna be looked at as the sick girl. I so understood why she didn't tell her bandmates or anybody. You never get used to this kind of pain,you just find a way to just tolerate it. Luckily I've never been in a coma or had any organs fail,for that I'm truly gratedul. I always love to hear how she is doing. Anybody with a sickness like this that is triggered by stress should definitely not be in an abusive or bad relationship,that just triggers crises n puts you in unbearable indescribable pain. I would go through natural child birth yearly over this pain. ( my son actually was delivered natural with no meds,not by choice.) tMy late father worked in left eyes building when he lived in Atlanta n they got to be friends. He loved talking about how cool she was,how they smoked weed together n he made the mistake of getting in the car with her, she drove like a madwoman,speeding and busting corners on 2 wheels.. She called him old school. I hated I never got to meet her. Didn't know she dated Nelly's trainer. She is private with her love life. I never thought dalvin or Mac 10 were good for her. Them being in the business you know they were smashing groupies. They made a cute couple but you knew it wasn't forever. Hope she gets her happy ending.
@1:25 the meme reaction from Wendy Williams at being targeted for being light skinned as if that's not a real thing. This colorism sickness in the black community cuts both ways, just to let you know.
I miss the 90s!!!!!!! 😭 T-Boz was such a cute baby 🥰 Someone please explain why a man feels scared to get married but not do EVERYTHING else like living together and having kids? So glad you said this relationship with Mr Dalvin was toxic. Whew Chile!
I feel so bad for this beautiful woman because it seems that these guys she got into relationships with were afraid of commitment! And I'm also shocked of her financial situation! She is a member of one of the biggest girl groups in the world and she is broke! I pray for her to be happy and to live the good life that she richly deserves!
I swear these dudes be so afraid of marriage but don't mind having kids.
That part 😳😰🥵
It's how he explained walking down the aisle... As though he was heading for open heart or brain surgery.
Women too. I get hives..
Because most think having kids without commitment binds you to them and that they can *hit it* anytime they get good and ready as long you keep on being foolish.
Why do women have these men's kids? Why would you have a man's child if he doesn't want to marry you?
This is why it's important to develop an identity outside of relationships. Fall in love with your self before you try to fall in love with someone else.
Very true love thy self first period!!!!!!

She had to fight almost everyday and felt she didn’t belong in the black or white community. My mother don’t know what she is mixed with, she never knew her father all she knew was her black side…it’s truly sad and sickening about the trauma that people endure because of their skin tone
Oh...please believe that it still goes on and I hear it all the time. I light skinned as well.
@@phoenixsinclair2959 : I experienced the very same thing except it wasn't the gum thing. But I would constantly get my hair touched constantly by other kids. And I was told that I was too light to be black so, my aunt had to make me play outside in the sun just for my skin to get tanned.
T boz and Left Eye were are certainly very close like sisterhood. R.I.P. Lisa” Left Eye” Lopes👼🏽🙏🏽💜💗
Sis no.. you don’t do allat for no man who can’t commit💯
Dalvin had her sprung😳
Great friend for life 👌
😫😫😫
I know Darvin did have her sprung.
Wow, that was epic!! Guess I don't need to wait for her book to come back from out of print now 🤔🤓
It's a great read. We added a link to her memoir in our description box if you still want to show your support ❤️
T-Boz cracked the Dalvin's ex-girlfriend's jaw and broke her eye socket. I can just about imagine what that woman looked like after T-Boz was finish with her.
I love T-Boz. She's my favorite in TLC. She has truly defeated all odds.
She was young, You never acted a fool over a man? 😂
@@rrg not everyone has toxic relationships, or acts “crazy” over a man when they are young. I know many women who haven’t an will not!
@Shay T riggght!!
@Manifest Health&Wealth & then when we done w them they STILL tryna hit us up..like wtf?
@EI84 Ashlee so what.. Maybe the girl tried to get out her body and got put back in it
TBoz sells her own CBD oil. Good quality.💯💯💯

@@sweeetzz thank you
@@evolved93 your welcome
Lmaoooo mack 10 was such a gangster at the wedding 😂😂😂😂
😂😂
😂🤣😂😂
@Michael Barrow why? She doesn’t regret it at all
She looks more mixture like her mama and Whitney Houston.🙂
There was one photo of her in the car with the wedding dress on where she looked exactly like Whitney Houston.
The most important is the fact She's still alive and well. Sickle Cells Killas a lot Children's in Africa. Long Live T-Boz
❌ She ain't Lying about that fighting because TLC got into a fight with my sister's friend in the mall behind taking pictures. This was in San Antonio, in the 90s. ❌
Oop 😂😂😂
Damn
Who won? Details?
@@obeyamichael1947 😂😂😂
Omg
I clicked so fast because Dalvin was my middle school crush. I did hear they were dating after the video. Man, he’s a jerk. 🙄
I used to think he was so cute. He is far from handsome now.
Dag she look like her mom that's crazy just like her mom.
Complimented her "pretty eye brows". The things that make us swoon when the self esteem isn't in check. That wedding looked hot AF. You have to stay hydrated with sickle cell. Bless her.
This was good but it triggered me I lost my bf last year to sickle cell she was only 39. She has a husband and 2 sons who along with myself miss her dearly. On a positive note I am glad the TBoz is still pushing thru after so much she has been thru 🙏
Tionne is a true beauty. She is her mother’s twin! She is a walking testimony of God’s grace and mercy! I will forever love TLC as I grew up listening to them from the 90s!
Always Love me some T-Boz illness and Kids. Don't matter i will Always Love me some T-Boz
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Same here.
Yesss T-Boz was always my favorite! Definitely learned alot from this video. I'll need to read her memoir too
Hope TBoz and Chilli find true love 💕
I hope they truly well. Not some dogs men like that.
TBoz is absolutely stunning… and from the stories I’ve heard, she is genuine, loyal and her heart is pure. Everyone deserves true love, and true love isn’t supposed to hurt💜💜💜
Wow, she was such a cute little girl! She looks pretty much the same. She has a survivor's story!
I remember in high school kids would call me T-Boz because I had the hair cut, dressed in baggy clothes, we looked some what alike and not a positive but a negative, she and I share Sickle CELL alike. Everything seem so strange that Our lives were so similar to one another. The only thing I didn't get was to become a RnB singer of a famous world singing group. That's ok,I had and still have a blessed life. 🤗🤗👌
Well done again ladies! Phew! I think this was the most detailed video ever done lol! That was a lot of information and I'm not complaining lol.
Do you guys think a Jaguar Wright video would be a good one to do? I didn't know about her until she started exposing people.
"I don't know her" *In my Mariah Carey voice* 😂
@@rrg Lolll! Good one :)
@@rrg 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@rrg hilarious 😂
@@rrg Lol is she that bad??
She is her mommy’s twin 😍
Tionne "T-Boz" Watkins is my birthday partner, we share the same birthday, just 13yrs apart exactly! I thought her relationship with Mr. Dalvin was too cute despite it being toxic! I absolutely love her so much..🥰❤
I pray that she finds the peace & happiness that she deserves.
"Do you promise to love, honor and obey for as long as you both shall live?"
Please believe it!
OK, that is not a yes, lol
You should do the love life of the late Lisa Left Eye Lopes, that would be interesting !!🥀
Yeah she has endured a lot with the cicklecell anemia Tony Braxton has that too they are strong sisters and that is a blessing to be able to over come that you are still living and look great that is God's grace and His goodness that brought her safe this far Amen
I've met Tboz & chili a few times. They are soooo cool and down to earth.
Thank you for making this, TBoz’s memoir was very good!
Her classic hair do was the iconic look, it was the equivalent of "the Rachel"...creep video hair do or their first album what about your friends video's hair do for reference of the look.
@robin mcgregor Dreadfully gorgeous. I loved it. And it went so well with her tone and "look"...😁😎
Shes been through a lot, glad she's still with us
TBoz Is & Always Been A Very Gorgeous & Talented Woman
T-Boz is a ♉. We always bounce back. 🙌🏽
Taurus love hard too.. And because she's a strong, loving Person, she didn't let that destroy Her.
Wow... I always knew she had sickle cell, but I didn't know about the tumor and all her other health issues. Wow, she is a warrior! 🤗
I loved the group TLC and all of their music. R.I.P Left Eye. I was 13 when they first came out in 1992. Every song brings back wonderful memories even when I was going through my somewhat depressing adolescence.
This young lady has had a tough life and it's sad that she has had to endure so much pain. There really are no words. I've had a brain 🧠 tumor and 2 surgeries to remove it, so I can understand some of what she went through. All I can really do is pray 🙏 for her and ask God to make her life better! Don't stop writing. Maybe a book of Personal Poetry might help. Although I never published anything, writing about the issues of my life has helped me cope with anger and stress throughout my life! ✌️🙏
My girl. I loved this group. I always had a special place in my heart for tboz because I suffer from the same illness she does. I was diagnosed at 2 when we were stationed in Okinawa Japan. I was also told I wouldn't live past 30 and shouldn't have kids,I'm tboz's age. Thanks to the great dad I had who told me I can still be whatever I want n do whatever anybody else xan. I didn't tell anyone,not even my best friend or boyfriend's about my illness because I didn't wanna be looked at as the sick girl. I so understood why she didn't tell her bandmates or anybody. You never get used to this kind of pain,you just find a way to just tolerate it. Luckily I've never been in a coma or had any organs fail,for that I'm truly gratedul. I always love to hear how she is doing. Anybody with a sickness like this that is triggered by stress should definitely not be in an abusive or bad relationship,that just triggers crises n puts you in unbearable indescribable pain. I would go through natural child birth yearly over this pain. ( my son actually was delivered natural with no meds,not by choice.) tMy late father worked in left eyes building when he lived in Atlanta n they got to be friends. He loved talking about how cool she was,how they smoked weed together n he made the mistake of getting in the car with her, she drove like a madwoman,speeding and busting corners on 2 wheels.. She called him old school. I hated I never got to meet her. Didn't know she dated Nelly's trainer. She is private with her love life. I never thought dalvin or Mac 10 were good for her. Them being in the business you know they were smashing groupies. They made a cute couple but you knew it wasn't forever. Hope she gets her happy ending.
@1:25 the meme reaction from Wendy Williams at being targeted for being light skinned as if that's not a real thing. This colorism sickness in the black community cuts both ways, just to let you know.
❤️❤️
We knew it would be a hot topic, so we got the ball rolling by adding the shady meme 😂
@@rrg lol
😂😂😂
Very true definitely a real thing. Smh
What a strong lady. I am so proud of her.
I miss the 90s!!!!!!! 😭 T-Boz was such a cute baby 🥰 Someone please explain why a man feels scared to get married but not do EVERYTHING else like living together and having kids? So glad you said this relationship with Mr Dalvin was toxic. Whew Chile!
I remember she came to Takeo's mother funeral in Sandersville...nice lady
Didn't know his mom passed away as well. RIP ❤️
@@rrg my bad it was actually his father's funeral...
They all had gone through so much but all of them remained resilient. And they all had a beautiful friendship with eachother
I feel so bad for this beautiful woman because it seems that these guys she got into relationships with were afraid of commitment! And I'm also shocked of her financial situation! She is a member of one of the biggest girl groups in the world and she is broke! I pray for her to be happy and to live the good life that she richly deserves!
