Lisa "LeftEye" Lopes - Friends Video 1989

Exclusive never-before seen home movies of Lisa Lopes. Today is her birthday and in her honor I share with you one of her favorite videos we did as kids back in 1989 in Philly. I Love her and miss her.

[@AlaynaStovall]

Watching this video just shows how much fun it was back then. You could walk down the street without anyone bothering you and dance and nobody judged you. She was a such a free spirit.

​​@@inquizative44 who's fault is that?? The adults. And not all kids....and back then was better but it had its moments.

[@DCherie716]

She was definitely NOT camera shy. LOL

[@jorhodes4526]

Its funny how you feel like you know certain people, although you've never met. They touch you with their spirit, and leave an imprint on your life. Happy and sad to watch at the same time.

[@rosalynb8942]

Jo Rhodes She had that kind of spirit that welcomed you in. I think thats why we all feel so connected to her in so many ways and can relate to her life

[@rhodabrands9558]

Also she was very Humboldt she shares how she was raised and you can tell she comes from the hood no shame straight representing who she was where she came from

[@rhodabrands9558]

Her childhood reminds me so much of mines

[@ItsAzzIzz]

I love how she's not ashamed by camera, she's just posing like it she was doing it forever. just born to be a star.

Lisa was 18 when we did the dance videos.... :)

[@davidj1210]

Ironic that just one year later she would be recording What About Your Friends with TLC and it would become a classic! Lisa was the only member who could write as well as rap and dance at the same time. Her writing almost fortold her destiny.

I can only imagine if KZbin, Instagram, tiktok was around then, Lisa would have been flooding them with fun videos

[@anileme187]

Lisa was my role model, and that's my neighborhood; born and raised. When I was a kid my cousins and I would play TLC, of course I would play Left-eye. Believe it or not when I was 12 years old my mother let me pierce my left eyebrow just like my idol. I still have it I'll be 26 this year. I got rid of all my piercings but I'll never get rid of this one after she passed I made a promise never to. #loyalty

[@Blackisbeautifull96]

I wish she never got famous. I wish she stayed in Philadelphia and started what would've been a real relationship with todd. Her life may not have been any easier but I know should would've been happy being around her real friends and family. Lisa was never this happy during her career. She couldn't stop dancing lol. God bless her soul.

[@pinek8564]

Sorry for your loss

[@gabbyvillarreal1062]

I used to have this one friend in middle school, I liked her, she was the most fun and outgoing out of all the friends I remember having back in California, than she betrayed me by running off with my other friend behind my back, and her and the other friend she ran off with were literally the only friends I had since I was still new to Texas, there were also false rumors going around the whole school saying that I was stuck-up because of how quiet and shy I was, to this day, I don’t trust anyone.

[@RteeAlvarez]

Aww wow!! Now both friends are together forever RIP Todd and Lisa

even from archive footage as a teenager she had great knowledge of how to make love to the camera and she knew her angles. When she became huge and popular she seemed to master and manipulate the media like the pro she is and it comes inately.
