TLC Cancel Remaining Dates on ‘Celebration of CrazySexyCool’ tour

It is with great sadness to reveal that TLC have had to cancel the remaining handful of dates on the ‘Celebration of CrazySexyCool‘ tour this year, so that T-Boz is given the adequate time to heal and recover from a viral infection she had developed whilst on the road.

Last week we reported that TLC had postponed and successfully rescheduled two of their tour dates in Texas. Unfortunately, the reshuffling of those dates meant that there were too many dates to perform at back-to-back.

T-Boz requires tour dates to be strategically spaced out in order to get the right amount of rest between shows, to prevent any complications with her Sickle Cell Anemia.

Although the girls had every intention to continue the tour, Chilli announced on Oct 7 that they were unable to perform in San Diego that night, as T-Boz suffered “a relapse in recovery from a recent viral infection”, Chilli said in a statement on her socials.

However, tonight on Oct 8 the girls announced the cancellation of the remaining two dates in LA on the tour. “T-Boz is currently recovering from a viral infection, but unable to perform this weekend”, TLC said in a statement. “While we hate to disappoint TLC fans, the collective health of our team takes precedence”.

The statement goes on to thank the dedicated fans for the “outpouring of love we’ve received since the tour began, and can’t wait to get back on the road to see fans next year”.

TLC have been having a blast on this tour, receiving rave reviews from critics and surprising fans with performances of songs they have never performed before, and keeping the shows fresh with a set of new dancers, remixes and the inclusion of the funky DJ Dubz, who keeps the party moving.

The second leg of the tour will continue in 2022, including rescheduling previously cancelled dates that have been affected this year.

We wish T-Boz a safe and healthy recovery. Take all the time you need to feel better. You have all our love, understanding and support, Now & Forever!

UPDATE: The two dates still happening are:

OCT 21
Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Tampa
Tampa, FL

OCT 26
Muckleshoot Casino Resort
Auburn, WA

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. โ€œArizona fans we love you and will be back soon!โ€, they said in a statement.

TLCโ€™sย 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.ย 

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:

Our thoughts are completely with Chilli right now! The TLC superstar has been forced to cancel a string of TLC performances in California this week, due to her losing her voice!

Regarding the Sacramento engagement, TLCโ€™s concert management team released the following statement: โ€œUnfortunately due to Chilli losing her voice, TLC must cancel their appearance tonight at the California State Fair. They were very much looking forward to performing at the State Fair this year and hope to see everyone soon.โ€

On her Twitter feed today (July 14), Chilli stated that she has had to follow doctor’s orders to rest, which results in the unfortunate cancellation of some of their upcoming shows, including the California State Fair, Sacramento (July 14) and the Stanislaus County Fair, Turlock (July 16).

“It breaks my heart to tell our fans that we have to cancel our performance tonight at Sacramento because I lost my voice and my dr has me on strict voice rest”, Chilli said in her statement. “We want the fans at Sacramento to know we love them and thank them for their support.”

Stanislaus County Fair also released a statement, announcing En Vogue as the replacement for TLC.

โ€œWe are very disappointed TLC cancelled, especially because the community was extremely excited for the show. We know this is always a possibility in our line of business,โ€ said Adrenna Alkhas, spokesperson for the Stanislaus County Fair. โ€œWe are still very excited to have En Vogue replacing them. We wish Chilli from TLC a fast recovery from losing her voice.โ€

We all wish Chilli a very speedy recovery. With lot’s of rest and TLC, she’ll be back on top form in no time!
