However, with new album ‘Blackheart’ now in stores, the singer finally broke her silence on the matter in a fresh interview with Sway on Shade 45 today.

The 31-year-old also addressed on the plastic surgery rumors which have plagued her in recent years.

TLC‘s status as one of the greatest girl-groups of all-time is undeniable.

However, disaster, dodgy decisions, and dodgier business deals have plagued the trio from their debut right up until today.

It’s an unfortunate trajectory for a Grammy winning ensemble, yet one that continues to be the reality of TLC.

Because, in a shocking move, today has seen surviving members Tionne ‘T-Boz’ Watkins and Rozonda ‘Chilli’ Thomas launch a Kickstarter campaign which asks fans to help them fund the recording of their final album.

Miguel is coming!

The soulful crooner has spent much of the last year piecing together his new project and, per his latest Instagram post, it’s almost ready.

Reportedly due imminently, the album – which succeeds 2012’s ‘Kaleidoscope Dream’ – also follows last Fall’s free EP nwa.hollywooddreams.coffee’.

Speaking on the process of wrapping up production, the 29-year-old said:

last touch ups to the album before it goes off for mixing. For all the vocalists out there I highly recommend becoming self sufficient in the studio. Started recording myself when i was about 13, i stole my uncles 4-track recorder… never looked back. Saves so much time and frustration.. Not to mention money 😉

While we do wonder if the singer has waited too long to build on the buzz of ‘Adorn’, we are eager to see what he’s been baking in the studio. Are you?

Mariah Carey‘s marriage may be a done deal, but the diva appears to be pulling all the stops to ensure her career doesn’t follow-suit.

As chronicled here on That Grape Juice, the 45-year-old’s latest album ‘Me. I Am…Mariah. The Elusive Chanteuse’ tanked terribly upon release last May.

And it seems the project’s performance (as well as a series of chart disasters preceding it) have Mimi ready to make a major move. Not so much to pastures new, but to a familiar faculty.
