Interviewer:Have you got a call to be on real housewise? You guys said no? How come? TLC: "Whaat?" they keep it so real. Love them.

Saying that she would go to jail because she can’t control her temper is not classy.

TLC are not about the drama. Period.

[@angiesworld8038]

I'm so glad they turned those shows down because that's unnecessary drama they don't need. I like the peace they instill amongst themselves.

[@c.c.2508]

It's crazy how people get in they feelings because two beautiful black women didn't sell out for a bag. Life isn't all about money! And if you think it is, than baby you already broke, despite how much money you got.

[@angiesworld8038]

*Their feelings Yeah, you got that right. 👏👏👏

Chilli net worth is at least 10 million so the woman is no where near broke. She also has residual $ coming concerts, talk shows, movies ( Marshall 2017) continuously music videos with Usher, Tyrese, Nick Cannon, her brazilian butt work out videos, magazine, DAYO clothing line. The woman is still modeling nearly 50 ! TBoz only slowed down because she has brain tumor and sickle cell disease. I still think TBoz is amazing for still doing concert inspite of her health challenges. The woman is a powerful house survivor! She is a huge success in her own term. I doubted any body trolling about their failure even has 1/100 of what these two accomplished.

[@camilleward9163]

👏Nicely said Facts.

[@musicallychallenged2848]

Tboz is currently acting on a day time soap drama show off an on. i forgot the name of it though! Supernova Leon has clips of it on his channel. She said the pay is nice and the work is easy.

[@clarkclarke]

AGREED 💯 because then they would do it and people would talk all kinds of crap ...damn if you do damn if you dont ... there is something to be said for integrity and protecting your brand.....YES!!!!

[@jamesde74]

Tboz had a brain tumor but had it removed

[@sonjahicks1466]

Well said. I admire TBoz because she has never let her sickle anemia slow her down and she has lived past 30 years, that alone is a testimony

[@rareone6878]

T-Boz always been a real one! Thats why she was one of my idols growing up and i still resonate with her as a woman now! 💯💜

[@camilleward9163]

Thank you Tboz for saying what everyone has been thinking for so long. Malcolm X said it best "You can't approach violence with Non-violence". And i would be locked up also. You can't keep calling yourself classy and using props as a weapon. I'm a sinner trying to be a saint but alot of those women's behavior would really make me trade in my name for a number! Uh...Ward bunk 77 you have a visitor...

[@LEGENDPantherJennings]

Amen

[@themalawiandiner180]

I have to agree, those shows depict alot of trashy behavior.

[@xtraflo]

Chilli still look fine as hell...

[@omgimover4075]

I so agree with T-Boz. I stopped watching Atlanta Housewives & Love & Hip Hop about 2 years ago. I just got tired of all the two faced behavior & fighting. I’m getting too old to be letting that kind of negativity enter my brain. The only reality show I watched now is Married At First Sight which comes on Lifetime.

[@awilliams3084]

Ive always wondered have bravo reached out to tboz and chilli for Rhoa, but i agree assembled cast reality show isnt 4 everybody..tboz will kick some1 ass 4 real

Are y'all still going with that whole TLC is broke narrative??? Lol that was in the 90's y'all smh

[@nicolesakwe1973]

She low-key called out Kenya. 😂

[@daniellesibiya9826]

🤣🤣🤣 low key but high key lol... I'd have dragged Kenya HARRDD, plus the mess that's Nene and Marlo man I'd be on death row lol... If Nene treated me the way she did Tanya and was my so called friend BAAAAAYBEEEEEE 🤣🤣

Danielle Sibiya lol those women are the same ones who want to run to lawyers and condemn violence but don't talk about how they provoked the person.

Nicole Sakwe 🤘🏼👏🏼

[@camilleward9163]

I am SO GLAD someone said it. I am like T Boz. Being on that show would have me trading my name in for a number. And now Kenya is a mother she would cry if someone talked about her child or how Matt was about to kill her. But she pulls those "below the belt" comments. An officer of the law told me noone can do anything to another person that they wouldn't do to an officer of the law. From judges on down. I ain't no bad beast but let's be clear don't put shit in my face in a threatening manner.

[@SamoanObsidian]

Since elementary in 1990 in my 4th grade year I've always idolized T-Boz even to this day. She just always been that #Queen👑

[@LL-lh7om]

These women are gorgeous as ever...Chili damn what a body

[@LEGENDPantherJennings]

TLC is classy

[@Eriq7001]

Tionne made great points. The fighting and arguing is uncalled for. But i also think both her and Rozanda are not friends / on friendly terms with anyone except Kandi. Both are not in the public eye in Atlanta.

[@John-hc8xr]

We have a brand to protect 🐸 ☕️👀

[@janetsmith2104]

Thank you, Ladies so much for not doing the RHOA!

[@BAMOORE94]

I would never be upset about them turning it down at all. Plus I believe TBoz would have actually fist fought Nene and Kenya… I know Andy is going to ask her again because she’s in the middle of moving back to ATL.. she and Kandi would’ve been amazing friends on the show but yeah she’s would literally end up in jail fighting someone lol.. I think Chilli would be more like how Kim Fields was. If they asked TBoz in the early 2000’s I think she would’ve done it

[@LarryBanks85]

Wow I love this! I understand why they didn't do it and I wouldn't want to be on a show like that either.

[@XNyanko]

I really appreciate them for not doing those shows, and at the same time, I can't blame them for not doing them...

[@snakeeyes2551]

To tell you the truth I can't even picture them on Real Housewives of Atlanta.

It sucks cause tlc sold more records than Destiny's child they should be millionaires today

TBoz a real one she always was her and left eye chilli to 💯🖤

[@sufundasamuels2313]

I can see T-Boz trying the show out. I like her because she's super chill. Chili probably could too, but I believe those women would tear her apart.

[@kmena72]

I know that's right @ 0:08.Tell this child Tboz, cause obviously she think you a fool! This (RHOA & Love and HIP Hop) is not your representation of what a black woman is. Girl, we got better things to talk about,RIGHT?? When you grow up on a quality show like: The Cosby Show - A Claire Huxtable is what you want to emulate and how you want your children to see you (of Quality and Dignity). Someone once said: Great minds discuss ideas. Average minds discuss events. Small minds discuss people. RHOA and Love & Hip Hop are for small minded people! The women who watch these shows tend to adopt the same characteristics, which is unfortunate, because our children are watching.

[@clarkclarke]

Also she is dealing with her illness and has two small children ....Chilli's son is 21 FloRida's kids are small as well ...Nelly's kids are 24 & 19 (?) The girls are not hurting ...

I'm glad they won't do it. #Respect

[@LaCheleWallace]

LOL! I heard that. I don't think I'd work well in the reality t.v. world. I'm not gon be nobody's villain. I'm not doing the staged relationships. I'm not good w/ heffas all up in my face arguin'. I don't do good w/ conflict. I'll simply walk away before I argue. Now mind you, I was down w/ reality t.v. I watched some of them religiously. I'm kinda burned out. I know there's only so much you can do on reality t.v. that'll hold folks' attention and keep them entertained, but DAMN! It's the same ol', tired, stale ass drama. I don't even bother anymore. That's gon change though. Imma watch Chilli's new show to show support. Overall, I don't care whether the sht is real or fake. Just be entertaining.

[@lindsaymibach2996]

I know that I’m just a Fan of TLC Chilli & T-Boz I think Its totally up to them if they what to Turned Down Joining ‘RHOA’ Multiple Times I think the group ‘RHOA’ should listen what to Chilli & T-Boz and how their feelings matters to because they are not just Best Friends they are also a group to
