Family Affair ~ Chilli & Her Son Tron Campaign for Dasani

ATLien — Mon, 06 Apr 2009 14:00:58 +0000

Rozonda “Chilli” Thomas has landed an endorsement deal with Coco-Cola products for Dasani water. The former TLC member has also made it a family affair and has included her 11 year old son, Tron in the deal:

It means so much to me to be in the DASANI campaign because I drink DASANI water all the time. So to get a phone call to represent DASANI water is amazing. To drink water as much as I do and to be a part of that and campaign for it…I just felt like it was a good fit; and to find out I can work with my son…he was so excited and I was so excited! It’s just been amazing! The chance to represent the brand I love and have fun working with my son is a thrill. I can’t ask for anything more than that.

Chilli will also be participating in DASANI’s Ultimate Style and Beauty Experience where one lucky mom can enter to receive a chance to win a 4-day/3-night all expenses paid trip to Atlanta for them and a friend, where they each will receive VIP treatment with a spa day, photoshoot and an opportunity to meet and hang out with Chilli.

T-Boz: “I’m not Homeless!”

ATLien — Mon, 15 Dec 2008 17:22:40 +0000

Tionne “T-Boz” Watkins recently hit up Essence Magazine to address recent reports of her Georgia home being foreclosed:

Well, there have been reports that a Georgia property of yours is going into foreclosure. Is that true?
T-BOZ: No, I’m not homeless. During my last marriage [to Mack 10], I had a bunch of things that were put in my name. If one of those properties is going into foreclosure then I don’t know. Although I’ve been divorced for five years, there are still a lot of things I’m dealing with on getting straight in that regard. All I know is that the house I live in with my daughter is not. When you pull up my name, my real house doesn’t show up because it’s not in my real name, because I enjoy my privacy and I’m not trying to have people be able to find me that easily.

There were also reports of you losing a home in Houston?
T-BOZ: I’ve never owned a home in Houston. I closed a store in Houston, Chase’s Closet, where I sold girls and boys clothing from infants to 12 years. The store is named after my daughter, Chase. For now, I only have the online store (chasescloset.com).

That explains the locale. Did you see the photos they had of you that were allegedly in front of your Houston home begging for donations?

T-BOZ: It’s almost a waste of energy to give an explanation, but I’ll just say that the [blogosphere] loves to make up things. I remember that photo and it was on Craiglist.com showing me holding up an

Whatever Happened to… O’So Krispie?

ATLien — Mon, 11 Aug 2008 13:49:05 +0000

Do you guys remember O’So Krispie, the O’So perky winner of UPN’s R U The Girl with T Boz & Chilli?? Well, O’So, real name Tiffany Baker, is back after getting her life and her mind together after a series of hardships and has a new single making the rounds. I just received a press release and was pleasently surprised to see that a couple of ATL producers (DJ Toomp, Teddy Bishop) have a hand in O’So’s comeback.

Find out what she’s been up too, and also check out the new video for her single “Slumber Party”: (more…)

It’s Official…Usher’s a B*tch!

ATLien — Thu, 05 Jun 2008 05:10:19 +0000

OK…Ok…I may be being a bit harsh on Mr. Foster-Raymond, but I honestly believe that Usher has ventured into the B*tch zone and can’t come out. I just spotted over at NecoleBitchie that Usher is now making catty comments towards Chilli after she stated that he would always have a place in her heart:

“I mean, I think it’s a little unrealistic, I’m married (laughs), I’m not a boy. It’s been three years past, you know? But we all have unrealistic goals too. Like shoot, I will always forever love Katie Holmes and Halle Berry. I don’t feel anyway about it. It does appear maybe to be a plug for something. She got a record coming or something?”

After having lunch with a friend yesterday (wassup BlogXilla ), and discussing Usher’s antics, it is truly official. I mean, do you realize how Usher has went out of his way to (more…)

Chilli on Usher ~ “We look like we just go together…”

ATLien — Tue, 15 Apr 2008 14:31:43 +0000

Necole Bitchie got exclusive access to Rozonda “Chilli” Thomas and got her to spill the beans on her former relationship with Usher, the status of her current relationship with Floyd Mayweather and a suprise story of a love that got away.

On Usher ~ “…I do want him to be happy and all but me and him had what I never had in any of my other relationships, and that was chemistry. Even in that picture that you have up. Any picture that you see with the two of us, you see it. It’s just there! I could be standing next to him til this day and people will be like “Wow”. It’s not that you are wondering if we are back together again, it’s just that we look like we just go together.”

On Floyd Mayweater ~ “He’s just amazing. Like he has one of the biggest hearts I’ve ever seen. I honestly have to say that. So he’s just someone that I like hanging out with. He’s the type of person that when we are all hanging out together, he’d buy stuff for everybody. He’s just real giving like that so of course if he’s buying me shoes, then it’s like “they are together”. But no, I’m not dating him.”
