[PHOTOS: T-Boz & Chilli Celebrate ‘CrazySexyCool: The TLC Story’ NYC Premiere w/Family & Friends… ]
The film, which follows the lives of supergroup, stars Keke Palmer as Rozonda “Chilli” Thomas, Lil Mama as the late Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes, and Drew Sidora as Tionne “T-Boz” Watkins.
During the two-and-a-half-hour show, we witnessed TLC’s history unfold, and while the truth is always more interesting than fiction, there were still life lessons revealed.

For younger viewers unfamiliar with TLC’s history, the film served as an introduction to arguably the biggest girl group in music history, but for long-time fans of the former trio, it was a heartbreaking story of how the music industry can chew you up and spit you out if you don’t know your worth.
CrazySexyCool highlighted all that was beautiful and unforgettable about the popular 90′s girl group, even while revealing their trials and tribulations. VH1′s portrayal of the group was right on point…. from their ’90s fashion to their girl-power inspired attitudes… to their classic music videos…. all were astonishingly spot-on!

It’s been said that Lopes’ family didn’t approve of the film, and it’s almost understandably so. While Lil Mama carried out the part effortlessly, the 40oz beer bottles in a brown paper bag were a bit much. Sure… we all know Left Eye had issues with alcohol, but did they really have to take it there?
There was lots of unspoken (but implied) drama in the film. In real life, Left Eye and former Atlanta Falcons player Andre Rison fought like cats and dogs and many times, the couple could be seen battling in the parking lot of popular nightspots.

Tionne ‘T-Boz’ Watkins faced challenging health issues throughout her career in the group and it seems she was hit hardest financially, possibly due to mounting medical bills. It’s revealed in the film that when doctors diagnosed her with Sickle Cell, they only gave her a 20 year lifespan and didn’t predict she would ever give birth.
Watkins has also battled a brain tumor, but throughout it all she’s manage to survive.

Rozonda ‘Chilli’ Thomas’ was once rumored to be involved with her label head, L.A. Reid (portrayed by Carl Payne), which was a bone of contention between she and Pebbles portrayed by Rochelle Aytes), Reid’s wife and creator/mentor of the group.
Usher, T-Boz, L.A. Reid, Chilli and Left-Eye…
The movie showed Chilli’s character going through the emotional pain of having an abortion and while it’s implied the child was Dallas Austin’s, word on the curb is that it was really Reid’s. But again… that’s all hearsay. Chilli and Dalls have one child together, a son named Tron.
[FLASBHACK: Dallas, Chilli & Son Tron Spend Family Time at BeatThang Launch Party (PHOTOS)]
Much of the remaining drama was associated with the group’s finances and it seems the blame was placed on Pebbles for that.
I thought that was a bit unfair…. it was Pebbles who got them a deal… it was Pebbles who developed them as a group… and if it wasn’t for Pebbles where would they be today?
Sure, the contract between TLC and PebbiTone may have been a bit askew, but had the ladies read the fine print and/or walked away from the deal, we wouldn’t have the classic hits we have today. It was clearly ‘Meant To Be’ as their new song suggests…

The CrazySexyCool biopic serves as a reminder of the uniqueness of TLC’s girl group. There was no social media back then, no self-promotion, but the ladies had the determination and drive to succeed that carried them through even the most difficult moments.
What did you think of ‘CrazySexyCool: The TLC Story’?
She ripped them off. Period.
True she helped them tremendously but they helped her get her music out to the masses as well.
It´s all about being fair. Pebbles is on twitter quoting bible scriptures and all butt hurt behind the truth. She needs to pay them for the hard work they undoubtedly put in
She may have gotten them the deal but THEY did all the hard work and singing. Just about every dime of what they did went into Pebbles pocket. As a black woman who had been through all that the music industry will put you through, she should have taken better care of the young sisters.
Exactly. They sold 10 million records and got paid 30k a piece. Pebbles is thr reason TLC is TLC but it still doesn’t change the fact she robbed them blind…
Generally speaking- nothing in business is fair unless you’re on the receiving end. She definitely took advantage of them being young and naive. They were more loyal to her then she was to them. I think they felt indebted to her for putting them on the map- per say. However that doesn’t excuse the fact that they didn’t even skim their contract. Nor question the fact that their contracts came from the same person who represented Pebbles. I felt bad for them, but in the end it served as a great lesson in life and business. They got older, wised up, and took their career into their own hands. In the end they won!
- I was crackin up when I saw Cockroach as LA Reid. Too funny.
- No they wasn’t playing Color Me Bad in the background! I had to go get that "I Adore Me Amore" out.
- The actresses looked just like all 3 girls in TLC. The woman who played Pebbles looked just like Pebbles. Good casting. But why was Dallas Austin cast as a light skinned dude? I thought that was Chris Brown at first.
- So basically Pebbles was a b*tch from the git go. I’m mad at her. She had me fooled all this time thinking she was a nice woman. No wonder we never heard another record out of her. She was making far more money by being mean, taking advantage, and manipulating 3 young girls into a group. She probably could not have gotten any other girls together. She just said that to get them to sign. Their parents weren’t even around when they signed the deal! No lawyer, no nothing. That right there is how you know she was shady. How are these girls signing a contract while being minors? I own my own business and a parent or guardian MUST be present before I deal with anyone under 18. And why didn’t she tell them about some of the expenses they would have to pay? That was wrong. Pebbles was jealous of Chilli and Dallas’ relationship. She said Chili was jealous of her Chanel bag and diamonds. Please. Nobody cared about a Chanel bag back then. Shut up Pebbles.
- I didn’t know Chili got preg before they were famous. I thought that happened later on. No wonder they came out with "Aint to Proud to Beg" and had condoms everywhere. And what’s this about T-Boz hooking up with my man Mr. Dalvin? That’s MY MAN. I had a huge poster of him on my wall.
- When Pebbles and LA presented the girls with those platinum records, were they sitting in a brand new house off of TLC’s money while the girls got a measly RAV 4???? My friend had a RAV 4 and she was broke, so that is not considered a nice car. That’s the same crap Suge Knight was doing to Snoop and Tupac when they were with Death Row.
- I totally remember those MTV commercials they did back then. I can’t believe I saw Tabitha Soren from MTV News. Where the hell has she been? Bwahaha! The whole movie was spot on and visually correct. Everyone looked super 90′s. I thought the movie would be poorly done, but it was excellent, and it took me back to jr high and high school. I fell in love with TLC all over again. I miss them. I hope they got paid well for this movie and continue to get paid. I hope Lisa’s family gets paid as well. They deserve it.
- I can’t believe the girls were still living in their same childhood houses even after they were famous and dating celebrities. WTF! Pebbles should be a damn shamed of herself. Then had the nerve to try and become a "Prophetess" on TBN.
They were 18 or over when they signed… not minors
You can be young in the mind rather than the age!! Why would pebbles (or anyone else),think its okay to take advantage of young girls who were naive to the business and were struggling just to be able to eat.Of course theyre going to sign!!! Most people dont expect the person that claims to have their best interest at heart to be a stone cold thief!!!!Especially a woman.Pebbles couldnt have robbbed those girls more if she would have had a face mask and a gun!!!
That’s their perspective on the story. I’m sure Pebbles has a different one. Three sides to every story – their side, her side, and the truth.
Sure. But there are still facts to consider.
1) Pebbles was rich rich rich. She lived in a mansion with her immensely rich husband.
2)The girls were not. That album made $75 million, so why weren’t the girls being paid anything? They should have made the largest cut.
L.A. Reid and Pebbles marriage disintegrated over this. He’s stated this. And they are working with him again, today.
My best guess, and yes this is only a guess, is that Pebbles was new to management. Her husband had been around however. Pebbles wanted to make her mark, be powerful (seeing her husband and Babyface)….
So, everyone was in place, taking their cuts, but PEBBLES, as their manager, and the one overseeing their BEST interests and the one who should be seeing that they MAKE money, did just the opposite. She took advantage of 3 naive girls. Yes, they were over 18, but they were young, excited, and they trusted her. She’d been in the biz. And from the SOUNDS of it, she threatened them if they questioned her about the contracts, especially early on. The former member Crystal stated that she wanted to go over the contracts with her Mom, and Pebbles said no. So she had a lot of influence over them in the beginning.
But even if I’m off base with my thoughts, the facts above don’t add up. If they weren’t making money, who was? Someone was…that part can’t be disputed.
T-Boz hooked up with him around time of Jodeci last album. Don’t know if you remember Love U 4 Life video as featured her marrying Mr. dalvin.
Remember as tried to kick the tv just seeing the thought of her marrying him. Mr. Dalvin was my favorite too. Yes, they were definetly hooked up around that time.
LA and Pebbles bought their house way before they signed TLC. Chilli was having sex with LA and that’s why Pebbles didn’t like her.
no ones mentioned that look that pebbles gives chilli in the movie when she is with l.a. Even tho the movie doesn’t say chilli had an affair with l.a., that ‘look’ is a hint that something was going on…even if it was just pebbles being suspicious.
THIS MOVIE POTRAYED THEM VERY WELL IN WHAT THEY HAVE ACCOMPLISHED!! I AM SUPER PROUD OF LIL MOMMA AND THE REST OF THE CAST BUT ESPECIALLY HER BECAUSE SHE GETS SOOO MUCH FLACK FOR NOTHING. KEEP SHINING BECAUSE JUST LIKE LEFT EYE YOU ARE A STAR!!!
Movie was really good and I am so happy Lil Mama knocked it out the park. People were clowning her and being very negative with out giving her a chance. I am dying laughin at all the pics people are making from the movie last night.
@loving I agree,but I thought it was Keke that everyone was clowning.I didnt cry until they showed the real TLC at the end.Either way Im very proud of all the girls.THEY DID THAT!
I forgot to add that they portrayed them so good that a couple of scenes,I didnt know if it was the real TLC or the actors.AMAZING! and Pebbles you need prayer! REALLY? I wonder if she watched.Tom Joyner is suppose to have her on this morning.Pebbles ,im sure your whole congregation is ashamed for YOU!!! REPENT !
You know she was watching — on her big screen TV.
This production was very well done; I was impressed by everyone’s acting and of course Lil Mama was a little eerie in her portrayal of Lisa Lopes. At times we couldn’t tell the difference in the music videos from the real…excellent. As far as Pebbles being the focal point of their financial woes,,, these ladies where already adults and nobody is to blame for their situation more than they. I find it hard to believe that neither of the mothers who were portrayed as being overtly nurturing did not have any involvement in the signing of such a commitment as in the signing of a binding contract…and if not it was solely taken upon TLC to accept the terms. The music industry has countless stories of contracts benefiting the record companies, so to go into terms without an outside third party was DUMB; especially with three young ladies that were pushing for girl power. Of course the record companies are an easy target. They take all the risks, front all the money, and mold these individuals into artist…how many times has it fell thru and they take the loss. I knew at an early age that you don’t make money making records unless you write or produce…the artist make money on the road…always have and always will. The smartest thing they could have done was to only sign for a two or three record deal and renegotiate the contract which I believe they did do eventually….READ THE DAMN CONTRACTS FIRST.
They were three girls from poor backgrounds. And honestly, TLC was the first I heard about record labels ripping people off. Because they spoke out so publicly, we understand more about how things work today. They weren’t the first honey..Marvin Gaye, Toni Braxton, En Vogue…even the first members of Destiny’s child got ripped off by the deals that they signed. So….I credit them being outspoken and smart women and pioneers. Forever a fan!
You’re right. Record labels have been "ripping" artists off since labels began. Even Prince had problems. It wouldn’t surprise me if some still do when a hungry naive wannabe star wanders into their offices.
But back then people didn’t have the knowledge of how contracts worked as they do now (see: Toni Braxton). It was TLC & Toni Braxton’s contract/bankruptcy dramas that got everybody paying attention to their contracts. I guarantee you Matthew Knowles was paying attention to TLC/Toni Braxton’s situations back in the 90s and decided Beyonce wasn’t going to fall into that.
Oh,,,fathers love your daughters….
O yeah and when Pebbles said she can get another 3 girls to sign the contract, she was wrong. Did you see the auditions to replace Chili? Now that was some funny stuff!!!!!!Blaaahhhhhh, I’m like, really? For real? LMAO!!!
Pretty good. Didn´t like the way pebbles did them & the rest of the music industry. They should have been paid.
Save your attempted defense of Pebbles….she is a lyin MFer who ripped off three young, impressionable, inexperienced girls….period….trying 2 "defend" herself is only making her look even worse….Pebbles honey "get yo life"…..#SHADY BOOTS#
I loved the movie! Shout out to KeKe, Drew and Lil Mama!
I really enjoyed the movie.. Had me digging out all of my old TLC cd’s and downloading them on my ipod. The casting was PERFECT.
The one thing I did notice that I’m surprised not many caught is Lisa’s tattoo (for Andre Rison) on her left arm. The tattoo was his number (80) with a falcon going through it. In the movie the tattoo clearly was of a 3 not an 8.
I noticed that tattoo too when she was sitting on the bed in Hondurus making the video tape.
I thought i was the only one who noticed that.Do you think he watched.I heard that Andre said he will forever regret the break up with Lisa,because she would always be his only love.That was BEFORE she died.:(
If he did watch- I’m sure it was extremely hard. I haven’t heard anything about him since she died.
Didn’t catch that, but I did see the Ciroc bottle in the background of one of the club scenes. Damn Diddy can’t keep out nothing, lol
Overall, I loved it! #DrewSidora and #KeKePalmer were wonderful, but #LilMama slayed! #LeftEye would have been proud of her! #EvanRoss SHOULD NOT have played #DallasAustin. #RochelleAytes, she played a mean and dirty heffa, but she delivered as #Pebbles. #CarlAnthonyPayne… NO, NO, and NO. Who played #AndreRison?
BIGGEST CRITIQUE: I wish that the epic sneaker barbecue/house of evil scenes would have stayed true to how #LeftEye explained it in her posthumous #VH1 documentary, #LastDaysOfLeftEye.
The movie was good especially Lil Mama in some scenes she had Lisa down pack. The chick they had playing Pebbles was also spot on, I did notice they left alot out about Tboz & Chilli and basically threw Lisa under the bus AGAIN! which i did not like. I also think this film confirms my suspicions about Lisa father’s death (blood sacrifice) and the Bill Diggins character. Lisa was killed (brakes cut) because she was not following her contractual obligations (Deal with the devil), she was going in a different direction & they got nervous because she could possibly break the oath, it’s really sad and obvious at the same time. Overall the movie gets a B+
What are you talking about? How was she thrown under the bus? Not being disrespectful you just sound like you have info that the rest of us never heard of.All 3 did their thing but the one I thought nailed it was Drew as T-Boz!These girls stepped it up.Im proud of them.
Ok. She’s not following obligations…so he kills her? Also killing the chance to make further money with the girls as a 3/unit group…which was the bread and butter?
How does that make any sense? And she was in Honduras, and I believe the brakes had nothing to do with it…it had to do with high speeds, a slower car in front of them, a swerve, and an oncoming vehicle in the other lane. That’s it
There always 2 sides to every story…The Light Skinned Suge..raped them for sure but TLC there mother’s fathers or some parent figure should have step in..they were young 19 and 20 they are not old enough to be signing thing with consistent I believe..In this kinda of business somebody should have been holding them down walking them through all this.
Rip to Perri’s twitter mentions last night. I enjoyed the movie and loved the song at the end. Lil Mama finally got the last laugh as she did an awesome job with her role. These women are true survivors as I wanted to chokey thee hayle out of the former Mrs. Reid.
TLC will always be my favorite female group!! All these others have come and none of them have impacted me like TLC!! Must be cause I’m a GA girl but they are the truth! I was ecstatic that they had the opportunity to share their story with us. Truly an awesome performance by everyone in the movie and it made me feel like I was watching it all play out in real time. Even though Lisa had her issues, they demonstrated that they loved her. They had their beefs but they overcame them. I hate it ended so tragically. The Game is missing what they offered us terribly. Some of this other crap needs to be shelved and burned. I felt like I was in grade school watching the movie dancing and singing doing my TLC slide and moves. Loved it!!
i wonder did they get paid for this….
I liked the movie. It was much better than I thought. It brought back old memories for sure. That is when ATL was the place to be – no shade.
The tripped out part is that their contract was typical of what EVERY SINGLE artist gets when they start off. When you sign with a major label, someone else is investing in you and they are taking a huge risk. So, you get paid peanuts until you can establish yourself. OR you are able to negotiate better terms. Hammer (lol) was able to negotiate a favorable contract. He said that he made more money selling CDs out of his trunk and turned it down.
That’s why so many artists are distributing their own music and the music industry is breaking down. Nobody wants a risky investment.
Come on. I can’t be the only person that watched Making of the Band with Da Band. LOL
Exactly! People act like motown occured in the 80′s…Sound like smokers,, I didn’t know I could get cancer from smoking cigerettes…Oh, really??? Know your business before signing anything..phone bill, car note, marriage.
That’s very true. Many singers/groups didn’t get advancements on their albums sales, so all the money spent [travel, costumes, hotel, food, staff & dancers, producers, videos...] had to be paid off first. Most people don’t realize that EVERYONE gets paid BEFORE the actual artist[s].
If you ever wanna get involved in the music industry and wanna get paid, DON’T be the artist, be behind the scenes..
I liked the movie, felt like they rushed through it though after the first hour… I wish it was longer though… [maybe broken up into a 2 day event?] so they wouldn’t have had to rush the rest of the movie…
After seeing the promotional vids, I knew that Lil Mama was going to kill the role and she did [standing ovation]. Drew surprised me too, I really didn’t care for her as an actress when she was on The Game back in the day, but she did a great job as T-Boz. Keke…? She did good, but I honestly didn’t think she was right for the role [not because of her looks, but for other reasons].
Who was that blonde chick that told Left Eye that her album sucked on the red carpet? [I think she was wearing a green dress?]
All in all, it was good, exceeded my expectations for a made for TV movie. I think Lil Mama should stick to acting…I see her as an actress for the rest of her career.
I thought that was someone playing Blue Cantrell (I think I spelled it right).
[…] Source […]
My hat is off to these ladies. It must be an honor to be able to tell your story and have everybody love you even more. The actresses in the film were the right choice. I hope to see many awards given for this soulful experience.
Thank you.
Great movie thoroughly enjoyed it!!
i loved it R.I.P. left eye lil moma did great
[…] for how true the bio-pic stuck to what actually happened native Atlanta blogger Straight from the A verified the authenticity while spilling a little local tea about an alleged hook-up between L.A. […]
I thought it was good
I say hats off to Lil Mama too! For some reason she often gets no respect from the black/social media. She may be quirky to some but there is no denial that she’s got talent. I hope she continues to pursue more acting. The whole cast was excellent and I hope the struggles TLC endured will act as a cautionary tale to new artists & inspire young women all over to fight for what’s right and stick together like sisters and in doing so, you can overcome life’s obstacles. I believe the fact that they loved/love each other like sisters and didn’t allow fame/fortune to turn them against the other carried them through the heights of their career, through the grief of loss and gives them the ability to fight on even now. We need to see more sisterly love amongst women. It’s obvious that it works!
Well Atl, Pebbles did take full advantage! These were 3 un- educated 18 yr olds barley eating. These girls were not Harvard educated accountants and lawyers. Hell, I am college educated and would not fully understand the terms of music contract. Some lawyers wouldn’t either unless they are specialized in entertainment law. These girls had no money for a car so how would they pay a lawyer. But Pebbles did. They was just happy to get they little scraps Pebbles threw at them. She develop them but they was pimp for Pebbles benefit.
LOVED IT
This was a good review of the movie.
Shout out to Lisa "LeftEye" Lopez whose @Vh1 interview lead me to take a job in BMG royalties department managing the domestic and international royalties for RCA Music Group artists like Dave Matthews, Christina Aguilera, Foo Fighters, Elvis and so on.
I wanted to learn how Artists like TLC, Toni Braxton and most of the Motown Artists (many who died broke) could be broke after selling millions of records.
Through my career at BMG, I certainly learned how.
I know Rozonda “Chilli” Thomas and Tionne “T-Boz” Watkins have learned from their past mistakes and have a good team around them and legal counsel protecting their interests this time around.
Let’s support these women with the new chapter in their career.
They were young and didn’t know anything about contracts and Pebbles took advantage of them. That’s not right in any way, shape or form. Greed can NEVER be justified as "oh well, you let me get away with it". She developed them as well as she did because it was better for HER pockets. Would she have done the same if she was only getting 20%?
I liked the movie but felt like they left a lot out. They touched on a lot of things we already knew about but didn’t go deep enough into detail for me. Still loved the movie and that all the ladies did a wonderful job at portraying the true members of TLC. I will definitely be buying this on DVD.
"I thought that was a bit unfair…. it was Pebbles who got them a deal… it was Pebbles who developed them as a group… and if it wasn’t for Pebbles where would they be today?"
You meant to say if it wasn’t for Bill the new manager where would they be today?
Puff Daddy did the people from Making the Band better than Pebbles did TLC. If they would have stayed with Pebbles, TLC would be absolutley broke today while Pebbles would be still wearing her diamond rings and coach purses.
Pebbles ought to be ashamed of herself and LA Reid as well for standing by watchn it happen.
Pebbles….excuse me "Perry" now that she is some so called minister (side eye) she has realized that the past has come back to haunt her. She better say her prayers b/c she is gonna need them.
Her tweets of her defending herself are pitfull, you can tell she was not prepared for all of this. She needed time to get her lies together.
The movie was cool, but I thought it was going to dig a little deeper.
Casting was cool, they picked the right girls.
I don’t know why everybody was so against KeKe playing chilli, but she did well.
I don’t think it’s that people are against Keke playing Chilli necessarily…. I like Keke Palmer, but my honest oppinion of her in this role was that I was watching Keke play a role. I didn’t see Chilli. I personally think that the breakout star was Lil Mama….. She did Lisa Lopes – everything. I did not see Lil Mama, I was watching Left Eye.
With Keke, I felt like I was watching Keke – I didn’t see Rozonda Thomas in there. And I think that as she grows as an actress, stuff like that will diminish. Part of it is going to be her actually honing her craft, and making the transformation from a cute child actor to being able to MORPH herself into ANY character she’s playing. She lacks the versatility of a Kimberly Elise, an Alfre Woodard, a Denzel Washington…. The list goes on. But it’s just experience and studying – I think she’ll get there.
AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You dumb fat bitch. Why is it unfair they blame Pebbles? Its her fault you fucking porker. Who the hell should be blamed. Have a seat and drink a slimfast.
I personally enjoyed reminiscing while watching this movie and learning of the group’s beginnings and real lives prior to the girl-band. EVERYBODY, girls and guys alike, was rocking to EVERY cut they put out from 1992-2002!!!! lol They had an amazing career and it’s sad that they, like many others, were taken advantage of. But the messages in their music still holds true, and it’s timeless.
The actresses I thought did a good job overall. Drew Sidora – I thought they did a wonderful job of transforming her into TBoz. I didn’t even know who she was at first!!! Keke is a good actress, but her portrayal of Chilli was missing something – I can’t put my finger on it, but there was something missing. She didn’t capture Chilli’s manerisms. I still saw Keke… I saw Keke playing a role – I didn’t really get caught up in Chilli. Chilli wasn’t there. BUT –
the DOLL Lil’ Mama – WHOA!!!!!!!!!!!! It was like looking dead at Left Eye – for real!!!! From a superfan…. GREAT FKN JOB!!!! It wasn’t just the way she read her script or even the fact that she resembles Lisa Lopes…. I mean she obviously STUDIED Left Eye. Even the way she moved, danced, held her body and head – hand gestures…the way Left Eye used to make her eyes get super big… you name it, she hit it – she straight nailed the role.
I DO think that Lil’ Mama could be a good addition to the real TBoz and Chilli if they’re still considering adding a rapper. I wouldn’t even think of it as a replacement to Left Eye, because Lisa was an utterly amazing emcee. But I do think there was magic to having the two singers with such different styles, along with a crazy-dope female emcee. And for those who remember, Lil Mama CAN RAP and she CAN DANCE – like fa real, fa real DANCE HER ASS OFF. I think that she’s mature enough now and I think that they could make some really good tunes – AND THE WORLD IS READY FOR SOME POSITIVE FEMALES OUT THERE. WE MISS YOU TLC!!!!!! RIP Lisa
Great movie !
I liked it, but I felt it dealt too heavily with Left Eyes issues and not so much of T-boz and Chilli´s.
Collision, encroachment etc…
But, one solid point the biopic makes is that this TLC trio is still solid in artistically developing a life of truth into a simplistic reality, through all bureaucracy, and too far for any small time minion that attempts to hide away in a corner.
They are what they preach, a reality of commitment to each other and to the truth, God.
That’ll be collusion, not "collision".
… mobile’s spell checker :/
Its not the fact of her ripping them off she was supposed to act in the best interest of her artist. Thats what managers do. They get you the money. Even after pebbles was fired they stillwere stuck in a bum ass deal that she created. She never looked out for them. She always looked out for the labels. So either she was naive as well or she ripped them off purposefully. Which is sad
You really cause it to sound easy using your business presentation but I to get this particular matter to get seriously something I do believe I may hardly ever have an understanding of. This indicates too sophisticated and very large for me personally. We’re looking onward with your next posting, I’m going to try to purchase the their hands on the idea!
