It felt like it was the 90’s all over again at the Stockbridge Amphitheater in the state of Georgia on July 21, and it wasn’t just because one of the greatest R&B groups of the 90’s, Jodeci, were performing for two nights at the iconic venue.

There was something else that made this night extra special. The gorgeous T of TLC made a special guest appearance during the Jodeci concert, which was a weekend-long concert alongside the legendary Johnny Gill and R&B group Silk.

Tionne “T-Boz” Watkins took to the stage to present her former beau and lifelong friend, Dalvin “Mr. Dalvin” DeGrate, with a stunning custom cake to celebrate his birthday, which was coming a few days later on July 23.

T-Boz greeted Mr. Dalvin and K-Ci Hailey on stage, (Jodeci members Jojo Hailey and Devanté DeGrate were not present) and then proceeded to serenade the birthday guy with a rendition of Stevie Wonder’s “Happy Birthday“, with support from the crowd and the Jodeci band, including guitarist Mykal Curtis, who is commonly known for being a regular in TLC’s band when they go on tour.

Mr. Dalvin took to his Instagram on his birthday to thank T-Boz for her kind gesture, and hilariously included TLC’s “Creep” as the soundtrack to the post.

For added context, T-Boz broke up with Mr. Dalvin back in the day due to his promiscuity during their relationship, and the TLC song “Creep” is about a cheating partner, although it wasn’t about their relationship in particular.

“Thank you, T-Boz, for surprising me on stage with one of the most creative bday cakes I’ve ever seen,” Mr. Dalvin said. “It’s rare to find someone u can call a real friend no matter what the situation was … we are friends for life”, before adding “… that song tho”, along with laughing emoji’s.

T-Boz joined in the comments and said, “The song though!!! Always Got U!!!” Mr. Dalvin replied, saying, “u ain’t right lol,” and T-Boz hit right back and said, “u chose it! u so funny, haaaaa love it, though.” Mr. Dalvin concluded the chat with “I wonder why [I chose that song]” with some humorous emoji’s.

Last month, the couple labeled themselves as ‘Batman and Robin‘ when they reunited to say that they had something exciting to announce, which has yet to be revealed.

T-Boz and Mr. Dalvin have the cutest friendship. They are the living proof that you can grow closer to ex partners after a break-up and can get along better as friends.

However, time will tell if our favourite couple from the 90’s will ever rekindle the flame one day!

If it feels like 1995 to some of you all over again, that may be due to the fact that our former favorite R&B power couple – Tionne “T-Boz” Watkins of TLC, and Dalvin “Mr. Dalvin” DeGrates of Jodeci – are still as close as ever, three decades since they parted ways in the 90’s.

The self-proclaimed “dynamic duo” are still good friends, and have remained close friends for many years. The two music legends reignited some excitement amongst fans when they simultaneously posted a video on their social media to announce that they were ‘coming back’.

On June 14, T-Boz and Mr. Dalvin showed the world how much chemistry they still have, as they playfully decided that they were like ‘Batman and Robin’.

“We’ve got something coming — Dalvin — T-Boz — you already know what it is”, Mr. Dalvin said in the video. T-Boz co-signed the statement and said, “Frick and Frack, Frack and Frick! We’re back, y’all!”

The duo did not confirm what the reunion would be about, whether it was music related, a tour, or something else.

T-Boz and Mr. Dalvin’s last public outing together was back in 2022, when T-Boz stopped by at the Culture Tour, when the show touched down in Savannah, GA to show some love and support to her performing friends, including Jodeci.

T-Boz said she was doing good, to which Mr Dalvin hilariously replied, “you’ve been without me, that’s why you’ve been good!”, leaving T-Boz laughing hysterically.

T-Boz and Mr. Dalvin were in a relationship during the 90’s and were considered the ultimate couple during their time together. T-Boz even made a cameo in the Jodeci video, 1995’s “Love U 4 Life“, posing as Mr. Dalvin’s wife during the marriage ceremony.

TLC superstar Tionne “T-Boz” Watkins stopped by at the Culture Tour on April 8, 2022 when the show touched down in Savannah, GA to show some love and support to her performing friends, New Edition, Charlie Wilson and Jodeci.

T-Boz was able to catch up with her ex-boyfriend, Jodeci’s Dalvin DeGrate aka Mr Dalvin whilst at the show. The pair have remained good friends over the years and are always supportive of each other.

T-Boz and Mr Dalvin were in a relationship during the 90’s and were considered the ultimate couple during their time together. T-Boz even made a cameo in the Jodeci video, 1995’s “Love U 4 Life“, posing as Mr Dalvin’s wife during the marriage ceremony.

Fans of the couple are always excited when they reunite publicly. Their last sighting together was in 2018 when T-Boz stopped by at the R&B Rewind concert where Jodeci were performing.

During an interview with the Scoop B Radio Podcast in 2020, Mr Dalvin explained why he is still close to T-Boz. “I think it’s kind of like any breakup you have, you realise after you break up how good of friends you could have been. There are things that probably drove you apart that had nothing to do with either one of you”.

He went on to say that the distance bewteen them as well as other people having input in their relationship led to things going downhill. However, despite the relationship not working out, there are no hard feelings and they remain good friends to this day.

Were T-Boz & Mr Dalvin your favorite celebrity couple back in the day?
