TLC is an American
R&B girl group whose original recording line-up consisted of
Tionne "T-Boz" Watkins,
Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes and
Rozonda "Chilli" Thomas. The group was formed by Watkins, Lopes and Crystal Jones in
Atlanta, Georgia in 1990, before Thomas replaced Jones in 1991 and Lopes died in 2002. The group was very successful in the 1990s and early 2000s in spite of numerous spats with the law, each other, and the group's record label and management. They scored nine top-ten hits on the
Billboard Hot 100, including number-one singles "
Creep", "
Waterfalls", "
No Scrubs" and "
Unpretty". The group also recorded four platinum albums, including
CrazySexyCool (1994) which still remains the only album by a female vocal group in history to receive
diamond certification from the
Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).
