"TLC Going to Jail?" Party Hashtag Skyrockets on Twitter
Is Tionne "T-Boz" Watkins, and Rozonda "Chilli" Thomas of the 90s sensational girl group, TLC really going to jail? MStars News has learned that the hashtag, "#TLCisGoingToJailParty" skyrocketed on Twitter over the weekend all because some fans were outraged with the singers.
According to Hot 104 St. Louis, the hashtag was made because fans are upset with the group for not updating them on a publicly funded album that they were supposed to be producing. So far, T-Boz nor Chilli have commented on the the Twitter rants, but MStars News hopes that they won't let their fans down and just take their money.
Earlier this year, the group revealed that they wanted to make their last album, but need help in doing so. According to Billboard, the kickstarter album started at $5 and if fans paid more, they would receive special items, like a personal TLC voicemail, signed items, and even a chance to workout Chilli!
During a cha,t Chilli gave details about their Kickstarter campaign, and claimed that the idea was influenced by their manager.
"Our manager talked to us about Kickstarter long ago, and maybe he was just planting the seeds back then. Also, I got on Twitter later than most. I already had fans asking, "When are you coming back? We need more music!" Then once our biopic came out, the requests were just overwhelming. Fans have even been sending ideas for what they want a new album cover to look like -- they get so creative. They have so much love for us, and we thought, "We gotta do this, and we have to involve the fans."
At the time, the singer claimed that she and her group partner, T-Boz, were in the beginning stage of setting up the album, and claimed that they were working on getting the right people on their team. Almost a year later. there has only been crickets as to where the last and final album is standing.
Maybe they didn't get that team of writers and producers together like they planned. MStars News wonders what they plan on doing with all of that money if their album falls down in cracks? Hopefully they will figure out how to give their fans their money back if they aren't planning on moving forth with the album.
But besides that, fans are still mad! Check out some of their tweets from this weekend.
