For those in the dark, TLC was an all girl music group consisting of members T-Boz, Left Eye and Chilli. Presently, they\u2019re only T-Boz &amp; Chilli following the death of Left Eye. TLC is the group\u2019s acronym for\u00a0the first letter of every member&#8217;s name. Rozonda Thomas a.k.a. Chilli is the sexy member that added a sleek R&amp;B touch to the group. It&#8217;s hard to imagine that Chilli (Rozonda Thomas) turns 46 years old this year. Chilli\u00a0was born to a Middle Eastern father and mother of Indian descent. She was able\u00a0to meet her dad for the first time in 1996 via Sally Jessy Raphael&#8217;s talk show at the age of 25. Some people have said that TLC was\u00a0the forerunner of female bands that came afterward, such as The Spice Girls and Destiny\u2019s Child. First and Foremost A Dancer Rozonda Thomas worked as a part-time backup dancer for an American R&amp;B duo Damian Dame. It was from there, she was discovered by their then manager Perri &#8220;Pebbles&#8221; Reid. Chilli\u00a0also appeared in Whitney Houston\u2019s music video I&#8217;m Every Woman\u00a0as one of the dancers. She was the last to join the group following the departure of Crystal Jones. The band nicknamed Rozonda \u2018Chilli\u2019 to maintain the acronym \u2018TLC.&#8217; Choose the stylish and simple looking spectacles by Ray-Ban RB3025 Aviator for your next outing: Buy Now \u00bb [separator type=&#8221;space&#8221;] An Actress Chilli made guest appearances on TV sitcoms such as \u00a0The Parkers, That 70s Show, Living Single, and Strong Medicine.

In 2011, she was offered a cameo role in an American comedy-drama called Single Ladies. [separator type=&#8221;space&#8221;] Executive Producer In 2005, Chilli and T-Boz worked as the executive producer for a talent search reality show. They were on the quest to find a candidate that will record a single with Thomas and Watkins and not be a (late) Lisa Lopes replacement. The winner had\u00a0the opportunity to perform live in the season finale, but the show only lasted for one season. She appeared as herself when she worked as an executive producer for a VH1 reality show titled What Chilli Wants. The show charted her dating journey in finding the perfect man. For the 2013 biopic CrazySexyCool: The TLC Story, she worked as one of the producers on the movie. The name of the film formed the group&#8217;s second album, CrazySexyCool. The film featured four number one singles such as Creep, Waterfalls, and\u00a0a new track written by singer Ne-Yo titled Meant to Be. The film became the highest-rated original movie premiere in VH1 history generating 4.5 million viewers. Chilli\u00a0has a thing for aviator glasses.
