VH1 Start Production On TLC Biopic

Published: Monday 26th Nov 2012 by Sam

For the fortunate set who grew up during TLC‘s reign, it’s common-knowledge that the trio brought the drama both on and off the stage.

Naturally, then, a biopic centred on the lives of Tionne ‘T Boz’ Watkins, the late Lisa ‘Left Eye’ Lopez, and Rozonda ‘Chilli’ Thomas, has been talked about for more than a decade.

Yet as the 10th year since Lopes’ passing draws to a close, fans will be elated to learn that the made-for-TV-movie has finally gone in to production – with the iconic group’s surviving members serving as “consultants and executive producers”.

Peep the press release below…

LOS ANGELES, CA – November 26th, 2012 – VH1 is casting the roles of Tionne “T-Boz” Watkins, Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes and Rozonda “Chilli” Thomas, for a full-length TV movie based on the celebrated pop/ hip hop/ R&B group TLC. With a script by acclaimed screenwriter Kate Lanier (“What’s Love Got To Do With It,” “Set it Off,” “Beauty Shop”), the untitled film is slated to begin shooting in early 2013.
TLC’s humble beginnings in Atlanta quickly led to an unprecedented rise to fame in the 1990’s as one of the world’s most talented, celebrated and highest-selling female groups of all time. Through very public and high-profile success, turmoil and tragedy, TLC left an indelible stamp of female empowerment that changed the face of the music industry forever.
The two surviving members of the group, Chilli and T-Boz, have signed on as consultants and executive producers for the movie. Executive producing the TLC bio-pic are Bill Diggins and Maggie Malina. Alexander Motlagh is executive producing for Pop Films.  Jeff Olde and Jill Holmes serve as executive producers for VH1.
 
***********
Granted every biopic brings with it fresh debate about what’s fact, what’s fairytale, and what’s  fallacy, we’re relatively amped for this. Having personally grown up during TLC’s rise, their story is one that future generations of music lovers should more than just know; it should be one they come to appreciate. For, without TLC, a host of today’s biggest artists may not have been here.
From a pure dramatics angles too, their story almost Shakespearian. Astronomical success, bankruptcy, burning down houses, in- fighting, illness, commercial redemption, and sadly death. Their narrative is epic. As such, this is one project we’ll be watching closely.

    Come on Sam, I know you wanna go there. Rita Ora stole the fast furious role over RIhanna. HA HA HA NOT TRUE. Rihanna was rumored to be up for the lead female role, but that went to Carla Garano, who was a gladiator. Rita ora filmed a f****** extra scene 2 daya ago. THE FILMED RAPPED YEASTERDAY. Rita ORA IS JUST a f****** EXTRA in the film and RIH HEADLINES MOVIES ( Whether they flop or not ) she is still A list in Hollywood and she does not need to play an extra.

    ONCE again Rita Or has to trash talk mega selling number 1 Rih. Keep your extra in fast furious LOL RIHANNA HAD TWO LEADING LADY MOVIE ROLE , PLUS, A NUMBER 1 GLOBAL ALBUM AND A SINGLE THAT HAS GONE IN 13 COUNTRIES.

    WHEN WILL YO FAVE? Kerruche Tran, Rita Ora, Beyonce, Kyle Devolle. All you haters know you cannot beat rihanna. my advice is that you kill yourself, cos she was born rule. I love how black white, asian, man, woman, old young. She has EVERYONE PRESSED. SHE IS THE BLACK MADONNA.

    MOVIES – NOT EXTRA – LEAD ROLES ONLY
    FASHION’
    FRAGRANCE
    SEXIEST WOMAN ALIVE
    NUMBER 1 ALBUMS
    NUMBER 1 SINGLES
    ARENA’S AND STADIUMS

    • IM A FREE B*TCH November 26, 2012

      how does this link to the article?
      and in Battleship, Rihanna didn’t have a lead role. she was a supporting actress. Rihanna has NEVER had a lead role in a movie.
      she has A number 1 ALBUM. not albumS. only Unapologetic is number 1, and the album is crap. kinda sad, the kind of music people support these days.. -smh-
      and all of these:

      • wrinkle flop ora November 26, 2012

        SHE HAS NUMBER 1 ALBUMS IN MANY COUNTRIES. MORE THAN ONCE. SHE HAS 3 IN THE UK AND OTHERS. SO, YES, F*** BOY, SHE HAS NUMBER 1 ALBUMS, THIS is not the first time she has gone to number 1. In the USA, yes, but WW – NEVER THAT? Name singles that have that? Sexiest woman alive? NO, rih is the only singer that has that in recent years by esquire mag. They normally crown Movie stars.

      • IM A FREE B*TCH November 26, 2012

        why the f*** do u refer to ppl as F*** BOY/F*** GIRL?! wtf is wrong with u?!
        even if you count worldwide, many other singers have number 1 albums too. number 1 singles? so many as well. sexiest woman alive, i’ll give it to her. but the music and movie thing, no

    • Beyonce’s Weave November 27, 2012

      They keep on thumbing down because the know it’s true. Beyonce will never, she is washed up, fat, old and is addicted to skin bleaching creams to try looking young and s***, too bad for her Rihanna has already over dominated her. 4 era was beaten by Rihanna’s 2 projects (Talk That Talk and LOUD) lmao.

      Beyonce is finished, her first week sales have been going down since that ghetto trashy album B’day LOL, she is finished.

  8. wrinkle flop ora November 26, 2012

    If Rihanna was a basic flop b**** who will fade out. Why are Rita, Kyle devolle, Beyonce all scared as f*** and tryna take shots? COS YOU RIHANNA IS YOUR QUEEN. Rihanna is Beyonce’s queen. She scared Bee. Beyy has to pull out all teh stops to flog her dead horse career. So if ( beyonce ) FAILS – WW – What will be the excuse ?

    No one is gonna watch her HBO about her life. Outside the black community, who gives a f*** about Beyonce life or music? White people are more obsessed with who Rih is dating over beyonce boring life with her ugly baby and ugly m***** hubby.

    • That B*tch (redbone) November 26, 2012

      You can hate Bey all you want but you’re a really sad person for calling that innocent baby ugly.
      What did Blue do to you?
      Ogre lookin, behemoth, pressed h***.

      • wrinkle flop ora November 26, 2012

        She is ulgly with nappy hair. Chris and Rih’s baby will be far betting looking with green eyes. Chris looks better than M***** a** Z and Rih is better looking than Fat old beyonce.

        No wonder jay is envious of young, light, bright big d*** s*** pretty boy Chris. A** Z could neva get hot young rih. He has to settle for old white rita h** ora and fat beyonce

      • MC November 26, 2012

        @That B*tch (redbone) Honey, why are you trying to use logic with Sybil? You do know this is Sybil, right? Sybil = Kelly = Rihanna Balck Madonna = wrinkle flop ora = Melody1518 or whatever her name is. The similarity is UNCANNY.

      • wrinkle flop ora November 26, 2012

        I am not mixed. I am A American, so u got that wrong F*** GIRL F*** BOY.

        Dont confuse me with b****** that have you beat. Take it up with them to their face f*** boy / girl

      • MC November 26, 2012

        “A American”? I think you mean “an” American and America =/= white as it is a diverse nation, hence its name “the melting pot” of the world. We all know you are Sybil and you are a black person so getittogether.com

        It is understandable, the original Sybil, named Shirley Ardell Mason, believed that she was multiple different people with different backgrounds, religion, social class, and ETHNICITY. So I guess you believe in being “white” is one of your personalities…..

      • wrinkle flop ora November 26, 2012

        A AMERICA. AFRICAN AMERICAN. F*** BOY

      • MC November 26, 2012

        Okay. So here are your personalities thus far:

        1. Kelly/Black Madonna — half white and half black, but only her white side counts. She lives in LA/England/ New York/ Sweden/ Mars/ Narnia/ Hogwarts/ Unimaginable place…….

        2. wrinkle flop ora —— an African American who is grammatically correct until moments ago………

        3. Melody15610 or whatever her name is —- slightly less offensive than Kelly yet still racist……

        *******List not completed, further data is needed to correctly diagnose all of your personalities*******8

      • Pressed H*** Like Yourself November 26, 2012

        Than why won’t you just write African American instead of A American nobody ain’t going to know what you mean by that

      • wrinkle flop ora November 26, 2012

        MC,

        You have no life. You really try and study who is who on TGJ. What a sad pitiful loser. How about you get a f****** job , instead of studying other bloggers, based on who you think we are. For all I know you could be some sick pervert in jail. Bet u are, F*** BOY

      • MC November 26, 2012

        “You have no life. You really try and study who is who on TGJ. What a sad pitiful loser. How about you get a f****** job , instead of studying other bloggers, based on who you think we are.” I am not the only one noticing your multiple personality, everyone notices hence your name Sybil. I have no life yet you posted 10 times on this post along (10/40 == 1/4 of the whole comment section is all you), mind you half of these comments are about Rita Ora whom this post has NOTHING to do with.

        “For all I know you could be some sick pervert in jail. Bet u are, F*** BOY” I wasn’t aware that prisoners had access to the internet…..what luxurious prison are you talking about. Oh Sybil, you strike once more.

      • That B*tch (redbone) November 26, 2012

        @ MC
        OMG, you are totally right! I didn’t notice it until you pointed it out but it’s definitely Sybil/Kelly or whatever her name is.
        Same exact writing style and insults!

  9. wrinkle flop ora November 26, 2012

    Rita Ora and kyle devolle: You are taking shots are Rihanna on twitter. But Rih has already recouped her MOTS budget. You have not. What you gon do, when Sony drop you? HA F*** GIRL?

    • L-Boz November 26, 2012

      TLC is still America’s biggest selling girl group, but worldwide Spice Girls sold the most

    • SHARON November 27, 2012

      • wrinkle flop ora November 26, 2012

        She has sold alot and her career in hOLLWYOOD WAS KICKING INTO FULL GEAR. Beyonce interviewed her on the red carpet for mtv movie award and she was very jealous. Before A died, she had Matrix, , Romeo must die – her lead film and Queen of the dammed. And she was not playing fat black singers like Beyonce.

      • wrinkle flop ora November 26, 2012

        Between Beyonce and Rihanna. Only black America care about beyonce. now, more than ever. Beyonce has become VERY EVER LOCAL. Rih is the number 1 black star in the world.

    Can’t wait to see this, I kinda hope it hits the big screen too or at least DVD. Kate Lanier did all those great movies, this one deserves to be seen beyond the VH1 TV screens

  20. L-Boz November 26, 2012

    Can’t wait to see this, I kinda hope it hits the big screen too or at least DVD. Kate Lanier did all those great movies, this one deserves to be seen beyond the VH1 TV screens

  21. wrinkle flop ora November 26, 2012

    THe spice girls are the biggest GG; bigger than Destiny child. LOL But the spice girls cannot sing. HA HA HA this is the second time in her career, beyonce has been f***** up by vocally weaker singers. First the spice girls s*** on her legacy, and now you have Rihanna blowing out the game.

    Beyonce so called talent is not that great is it? Spice girls slayed her and now Rih is slaying her. Looks like the black girl is hurting her more.

    HA HA HA. Rihanna, take your page out of the spice girls. You do not need to ” talent ” to destroy Beyonce’s career. Spice girls all earned over $ 60 million dollars EACH more than those DC members. So f*** the whole ” better singer / talent ”.

    What shakes Beyonce wis when better, but vocally weaker singer slay her with ease. Aahaliyah was slaying beyoince with her eyes clothes and is she had not of died, Beyonce would be Brandy right now. TLC and the spice girls ( more vocally weaker, but better artist ) STILL TO THIS DAY F*** DESTINY CHILD UP.

    THEN WE HAVE RIH…………A vocally weak singer, who f**** beyonce over with her eyes clothes. All this so called talent and yet she could not stop JLO wack singer selling 50 million and famous woman in 2000 to 2003; Beyonce could the reign of JLO. So she copied her booty bling bling style. Beyonce could not stop Aahliyah; it was only death that stopped aahliyah. Beyonce could not stop the spice girls or even TLC. She cannot stop Rihanna. Beyonce talent scares NO ONE. She is nothing. NO ONE FEARS BEYONCE- SHE IS NOT A THREAT. SHE IS THE ONE WHO IS SCARED.

    TO BEAT BEYONCE, You do not need to be powerful singer. You just need to believe in yourself, be THINNER AND BETTER LOOKING THAN HER AND HAVE CHARISMA. The Spice girls have that. Aaahliayh had it. JLO and Rihanan have it and that is why THEIR CAREERS SCARE FAT BEYONCE.

  23. wrinkle flop ora November 26, 2012

    If beyonce so f****** talented some kind of icon ahead of Celine Dion. Why did Beyonce ”talent ” stop the spice girls and Rihanna? Beyonce has been around for 15 years,m why is Rihanna getting more bigger and powerful?

  24. wrinkle flop ora November 26, 2012

    Mariah, Madonna Janet, , Shania Twain, Celine dominated the 90’s. Beyonce has never dominated anything. 2000 was about Brit, Xtina. Later 2000 is Gaga, Rihanna and Adele. Even during her one time prime 2003 – 50 cent sold MORE than Beyoince.

    Beyonce is overrated. She is not threat, she cannot shut down NO ONES CAREER, THAT IS WHY JLO came from hollywood, with not singing ability and was reigning during 2000 to 2003 – she was the most famous woman alive, while beyonce had to sit watch JLO get number 1 albums, singles remix and number 1 movies. JLO was crowned the best booty, so fatyonce had to swagger jack.

    JLO was even 30 plus and Beyoince 21 and she COULD NOT SHUT JENNY LO DOWN. JLO HAD THAT EMPIRE AND BEYONCE WAS TEHRE WATCHING IN SHAME, SO MUCH SO, SHE HAD TO CPOY JLO.

    BEYONCE IS NOTHING. JUST AN OVERRATED SINGER WHO HAS OUT STAYED HER WELCOME.

    • wrinkle flop ora November 26, 2012

    Who will be the next vocally weaker singer who f**** Beyonce head up? Already been the spice girls, TLC, JLO , BRITNEY AND RIHANNA. Even Adele is vocally weaker, but looked HOW SHE MURKED UP BEYONCE IN HER OWN COUNTRY.

  33. Ha!A Movie? November 26, 2012

    TLC is the 4th best selling group of all time.
    The spice girls are number 2 and Destiny’s Child is 3rd. The Andrews sisters are the biggest group with 100 Million++.
    So get your facts straight. TLC are far from the best group of anything. A movie about them? WTF don’t we know about them? A movie isn’t needed like seriously… They were ok while they lasted. However if they never existed other groups would still be. That’s the problem with the new generation and the last recent one. Whitney wasn’t the first black pop star. Mahailia Jackson was doing 8 million in the 30’s and had 1 million sellers throughout her whole career. The Andrew sisters were slaying four decades and not one girl group has surpassed them. We give way to much credit. The innovators and I mean the true legends came during the beginning of the industry and none after the 70’s

    • JWILL November 27, 2012

      Umm, the article said TLC was “ONE OF” the world’s most talented, celebrated and highest-selling female group[s] of all time. It didn’t say that they were THE highest selling female group! Learn how to read correctly.
      TLC always gave credits to their inspirations and legends before them, so calm your tits! Just because you (personally) don’t care for them and don’t want to see a movie about them, doesn’t mean they shouldn’t have one! They have fans, and we want to see one. Point Blank!

  34. Beyonce’s Weave November 27, 2012

    Oh please, not here for people seeking sympathy. VH1 can get their sympathy seeking documentary and stuff it. These guys overspent against the label’s advances and after they found out they were broke (the label has to recoup all expenses), they went to cry to the media and tried to make LA Reid look bad. Now they are back to their sympathy seeking tactics, yawn….Next.

    Being a recording artist is contractual work and you have to make money for the label. Someone better warn Rita Ora that Beyonce is not going to pay for those knee high boots, the label paid for those and charged them on the advances they gave to Rita Ora and seeing that they are hardly recouping anything from that s*** album, this b**** will be left owing the label millions. But Gay-Z (ex drug dealer, school drop-out, semi-illiterate) runs the label so one cannot be surprised that him and his thieving fraud of a wife can be bankrolling this FLOP.

    • L-Boz November 27, 2012

      First of all dude get your facts straight instead of assuming. TLC were broke because of their contract which made their label and management own the majority of the profits. Their manager Pebbles own sole rights to all their publishing and controlled everything so of course they were left with next to nothing. They finally negotiated a new deal for FanMail and are now ok. The only reason T-Boz went broke again was because of her medical bills for sickle cell and her brain tumour which requires the use of steroids hence her weight gain. These ladies haven’t had it easy and therefore deserve all the success and acknowledgement for everything they have done and paved the way for the females of today. This movie will be a classic if done correctly.

    Keke Palmer should play Chilli hands down. She is the only person I know who could do Chilli justice. Keke can sing, dance and act.

    Lauren London should play Left Eye. I believe Lauren would do a good job. She got the acting chops to do Left Eye justice., but she might have to lose weight because Left Eye was a skinny little thing and Lauren is kinda thick.

    T-Box is gonna be difficult to cast because of her voice. Everybody who know that T-Boz have a very distinctive voice. The actress that plays T-Boz should a deep, husky voice like T-Boz.

    Vanessa L. Williams should play Pebbles, the 80s singer who founded and started TLC’s career.

    Teyana Taylor would probably be a good choice to play T-Boz

    The actress who plays T-Boz should have a deep, husky voice like T-Boz . If she doesn’t, she should lip sync T-Boz’s parts.
