TLC Forced To Postpone CrazySexyCool Tour Dates Due To T-Boz’s Allergic Reaction to Smoke

TLC were forced to reschedule some of the dates on their current ‘Celebration of CrazySexyCool’ tour on Oct 2, after revealing that T-Boz had been suffering from an allergic reaction to the recreational smoking that had taken place backstage at a previous show in Belton, TX on Sept 30.

As a result, their shows in Texas on Oct 2 and Oct 3 were rescheduled to Oct 4 and Oct 5, respectively. However, due to the rescheduling of the Houston and Dallas dates, their tour buses and trucks are not logistically able to make the performance at the Mesa Amphitheatre in Arizona on time. Therefore, they are unfortunately forced to cancel the show on Oct 6.

In a statement, TLC posted, “Due to extreme cigarette and recreational smoke being present backstage at a previous show, T-Boz suffered an allergic reaction. The group has always enforced a strict no smoking policy at their shows in an effort to prevent any health related issues for the group and/or crew.”

Chilli insists that although the Arizona date is now cancelled, that it will indeed be rescheduled at a later date. “Arizona fans we love you and will be back soon!”, they said in a statement.

TLC’s show on Oct 30 at the Spirit Mountain Casino in Oregon has also been cancelled. All current ticket holders will receive a refund within 14 business days.

Exposure to the toxins in cigarettes is very dangerous for T-Boz because she has Sickle Cell Anemia. The disease itself comes with an increased risk of pulmonary abnormality due to deoxygenated hemoglobin, and cigarette smoke only increases the chances of severe illness. 

The remaining dates on the tour will go ahead as planned, so fans wishing to attend can still get tickets at livenation.com and ticketmaster.com

Please ensure you refrain from smoking whilst in attendance to the shows.

TLC are being supported by Bone Thugs-N-Harmony on this tour.

Wishing TLC a continued healthy tour. Glad to see T-Boz was able to attend the show tonight in Houston, TX at the Smart Financial Centre in Sugar Land. Check them out in the clip below:

TLC Announce ‘Celebration of CrazySexyCool’ 2021 Tour With Bone Thugs-N-Harmony

It’s been a crazy couple of years for us all, with countless months of uncertainty due to the global Covid-19 pandemic, which forced us to slow down and practice a more sedentary lifestyle, free from crowds and become more conscious about social distancing.

One thing that suffered most was the live touring industry. However, the end of extreme social isolation is finally drawing closer to becoming a reality!

Today (June 23), TLC revealed that they intend to return to the stage later this year, with the announcement of the ‘Celebration of CrazySexyCool Tour‘, kicking off on September 3, 2021 in Albertville, AL at the Sand Mountain Amphitheater!

The ladies will be joined by special guests, the legendary rap group Bone Thugs-N-Harmony on the tour, adding their unique blend of harmonious hip-hop to the live shows to open for TLC on the 18 dates of the tour. Additional dates will be announced in due course.

Chilli states, “I’m so excited for this tour because we’ve been talking about doing something special for ‘CrazySexyCool’ for years and FINALLY, we get to do it! This is the album that truly put us on the map and showed the world who we really are. So, this will be quite the celebration!”

CrazySexyCool‘ is TLC’s second studio album that featured the #1 singles “Waterfalls” and “Creep” and received a Diamond certification from the RIAA.

With over 85 million records sold worldwide, TLC is not only the best-selling American girl group of all time; with 4 Grammy Awards, 4 multi-platinum albums (two of which went Diamond), four number one singles and ten Top 10 singles, theirs is an influence – across pop, hip-hop, R&B, fashion and female empowerment – which defines generations.

In 2017, TLC released their self-titled album, their first in over fifteen years which hit #1 on Billboard’s Independent Album Chart. It funded exclusively by the fans via the crowd funding site, Kickstarter.

A two-hour documentary special “Biography: TLC” will premiere on A&E in 2022. The special will chronicle the group’s powerful, emotional journey and their survival against all odds as T-Boz and Chilli tell their story for the first time in a feature documentary. The special will be directed by Matt Kay.

TLC is represented by Lucia Media Group.
