Pebbles Subpoenas T-Boz & Chilli In $40 Million Lawsuit

pebbles-viacom-lawsuit

Perri “Pebbles” Reid served subpoenas to T-Boz and Chilli just a few days ago on September 30th. Know why? Because Pebbles included T-Boz and Chilli in her $40 million lawsuit against Viacom for the negative portrayal of her in the TLC biopic which aired on Viacom’s VH1 network.

Here’s what’s being reported:

“Pebbles is also demanding from them — any documents between them and the network regarding scenes or statements in the film that they claimed were inaccurate, the script outline for the film, all documents about scenes involving Pebbles. Specifically scenes where they portrayed her to be manipulating the group out of money, her alleged reaction to T-Boz’s health issues and anything related to the group record contracts.”

  1. Honey please let it go, U know damn well you cheated those girls..
    It only makes you look desperate, they have no money to give you..

    • No, she iz going after Viacom’s Deep Pockets.

      She only added TLC 4 publicity.

      She knows she cheated dem Girls, and dey r Broke.

      She going after da Big Dogs, who will quietly settle B4 going to Court.

  2. Pebbles is very smart. She understood contract law better than a lot of lawyers. TLC were young, hungry and didn’t have anyone review their contracts before they signed them. That isn’t Pebbles’ fault.

    It is ridiculous that Pebbles is accused of being anything other than a savvy businesswoman. With all of the artists LaFace screwed over, no one ever refers to Babyface and LA Reid as anything other than “moguls” and “geniuses.” Throw a uterus in the mix, and Pebbles is all type of “bitches,” “crooks,” “thieves,” etc. I’m guessing Pebbles learned how to negotiate contracts from being in a bad deal as a recording artist. Experience is the best teacher, so she cannot be faulted for that. Tionne and Rozonda need to get over it, grow up and move on. I hope Pebbles receives some form of restitution for the damage done to her reputation by T & C.

    • I just heard about how Babyface did this group in the 90’s. He definitely gives zero f*cks. But since it’s Pebbles, she should be ashamed. Whatever.

    • Well by what you said, why T,C tell their story?Everything you said about Pebb’s sounds like a music mogul. How many other bands/groups got screwed on record deals? It seems like Pebbs mad because she has no other groups….and who would want to work with a monster! Lots of ppl pebbles! Go ask you husband to let you manage a group!

      • And T Boz and Chilli should feel stupid now. They talked so much ish about Lisa Lefteye Lopes back in the day but Lisa understood the contract as well that’s why she started up her own record label and produced the group BLAQUE and new artist like Egypt because she knew the only way to keep more money in her pocket was to start her own company. Lisa was heading towards being her own boss and had began to educate herself on the business side if things.

        • Thank you. Lisa was interested in being a mogul her damn self and not a slave. T-Boz was battling sickle cell and Chilli was too busy being a whore to get their minds right and understand Lisa’s vision. Chilli has a baby by a homo. T-Boz was Wack-10’s punching bag. He never took care of their daughter, who is his twin. Had Lisa lived, the sky would’ve been the limit for her. She was truly one-of-a-kind and ahead of her time.

          • Maybe other Folks (LA Reid, Babyface, Suge Knight) thought bout the Mogul thang 2, so she HAD 2 Go?

            • I wouldn’t be surprised. Sylvia Rhone must have a whole lot on niggas in the industry to not have been disposed of, or she is a bigger gangster than most of us will ever know. I’m wondering why she hasn’t been “disposed of,” since you mention it?

  3. If Pebbles Was White I’d Doubt They Would Of Made A Fussed. The Thing I Hate About Black People They Will Blame Black People For Chit
    For Explample Don King And Mike Tyson. Mike Should Of Known Don King Was Crook From The “Jump” Now Mike Throws Don King Under The Bus When It Suits Him

    People Did To Read Their Contracts Do’t Sign On The Bottom Line Until You Read/Understand It Fully. Alot Of These Celebrities Sign Bad Contracts Their Family’s Are Rushing Them To Sign It
    Not Understanding It Before It’s Too Late

    • Pebbles is a crook, plain and simple along with her husband LA Reid, who I feel is the real mastermind behind cheating his and his wife at the time Pebble’s artists (TLC, Toni Braxton,etc) out of millions of dollars in royalties. We as Black should never excuse cheating each other in business

    • WELL THE ARTISTS ARE NOT ALLOWED TO READ THE CONTRACTS.

      BERRY GORDY ONCE OFFERED A GROUP A CONTRACT IN THE 60’S THEY READ IT AND THEY REFUSED TO SIGN.

      CEOS AND MANGERS OFFER THOUSANDS MAYBE A MILLION DOLLARS UP FRONT TO GET YOU TO SIGN AND THE ARTISTS SEEING THAT MUCH MONEY USAULLY SIGNS AMNDS THEN THEY GET MONEY.

      ICE CUBE SAID WHEN JERRY HELLER OFFERED NWA 10,000 APIECE TO SIGN A CONTRACT THE MEMBERS WAS ALL ECXITED CUBE DID’NT SIGN SINCE HE CO WROTE HALFTHE EAZY, NWA MATERIAL HE SAID THE MONEY WAS HIS ANYWAY MC REN , AND DRE NEVER SEEING THAT AMOUN T OF MONEY CVALLED CUBE STUPID AND SIGNED THE CONTRACTS.

  4. Pebbles needs 2 throw up the white flag, call a truce, & extend the olive branch…its over with…no won one out of the whole situation….let it…GO!!!

  5. What about Clive Davis and LA Reid theyre all crooks making money off of black people. Both Toni Braxton and TLC filed for bankruptcy. I read that Toni had to buy back her grammies? This would have never happened had TLC and Toni Braxton been white but then you have Pink who used the black culture to get where she’s at a pop/rock artist.

  6. Tlc was wrong for not doing their homework, that’s like filling out for example: a doctor can’t bee a surgeon without doing 8yrs of school and having a certified license. So it well defeat the purpose of filling out for a job as a surgeon cause you have a passion to want to be a doctor. They never went to school to learn about music or three business so on their part the lack of knowledge was their own fault.

  7. Lawd.have mercy! Not again with this lawsuit! Pebbles sit down somewhere! Them girls ain’t got no money! Just about all of T-Boz money goes into her treatments. Chilli is barely making it herself! And 40 million at that! Hell, the average black woman in the South barely have $50,000 or less! This fool needs to sit down somewhere! Better yet, Chilli and T-Boz since Pebbles wanna sue yall, demand a state court issue polograph test. We gonna see who is LYIN. That can solve all this!

    • That lawsuit ain’t about money. It’s like when Terry McMillan sued her ex husband for 40 million, it was basically a “bitch i will destroy you” move.

  8. I hope this back fires on her, instead of getting she should be made to give back all she stole.

  9. I’m just curious to what Pebbles does for a living now. I thought she was in the church. She was married to LA Reid and had one child Aaron and has another child with someone else. Did she get a good settlement from LA because I know the child support payments ran out. Pebbles leave TLC alone!

  10. TLC didn’t get screwed by Pebbles,they got screwed by the Music industry as a whole.

  11. Also pebbles knew she was screwing those ladies and white industry heads in the business put blacks in charge they don’t care about their own and make them give black artist bad contacts while stealing their creativity and images for white artist with no flavor. Perfect example watch the 5 heartbeats movie. Clive Davis made up the contract for black artists, babyface and la reid where hired by Clive, all 3 pebbles,la &babyface knew those contracts was bogus,& got paid to give it to them.

  12. I got one good question. Let’s per say and key word is IF now. What would happened if Clive would have passed, who would pick his spot?

    • CLIVE BENEFITTED FROM EVERYTHING LAFACE RECORDS EVER DID PLUS HE WAS MAKING MONEY OFF BAD BOY RECORDS.

  13. She trying to get blood out of a turnip! They don’t have money like that! Plus, T-Boz is sick. I’m sure her medical bills are stacking up.

  14. Hate to say it but they really signed a contract with the devil! I hope they believe in Jesus Christ. This is going to be a fight that only the Lord can handle.

  15. LOTS OF ARTISTS ARE BROKE ENVOGUE, SWV, JODECI TOO MANY MORE ARE BROKE.

    THE TEMPS IN THE 80’S MOST OF THEM WAS PIMPING THEIR GIRLFRIENDS FOR DRUG MONEY.

    SLIMM THUGG’S PIMPING NOW.

    MARVIN GAYE WAS PIMPING STARSTRUCK FANS FOR DRUGS.

    COOLIO’S A STRAIGHT UP CRACKHEAD BUT HE WAS ON CRACK WAY BEFORE HE WAS FAMOUS.

    MARTHA REEVES IS BROKE AND SHE PERFORMS OVERSEAS FOR MONEY.

    FRANKIE BEVERLY HAS THROAT CANCER AND HE STILL WANNA PERFORM.

  16. I feel like theres some truth in what happened because I heard back then the music industry was petty towards the talent back then shes mad that the truth came out #Oldwitch

  17. Yeah i watched the interview that pebbles did with the huffington post and she said that thats the new artist deal/ contrac that every artist at that time who was signed to Laface record got. Pebbles was not the only party apart of Laface records. I believe she’s mad that Clive Davis who was also apart of tge management through her under thd bus.

  18. La Reid and Babyface was also to blame for the way that their artist was financially treated at the time. I watched Sam Cook’s unsung doc and he seemed like the type of manager who helped his artist out and treated the fair why couldn’t babyface of LA do that?

  19. Sam Cook had started his own record company and were bringing in new black artist in his day. Clive Davis didn’t like it and they took that brother out of here like he did Whitney and so many other artist. When the artist to see the truth they then become a liability to the label.

    • Sure did! Got his brains beat the f*ck outta him! Watch Satan’s Son on You Tube.

  20. Pebbles is attacking TLC who were allowed by LA Reid, Babyface, and Clive Davis to expose her as the culprit and mastermind behind the groups demise. Another part of the comes from pebbles guilt on knowing that she should have taken better care of he group.

  21. No good is coming your way, Pebbles! Your focus should be on the son you abandoned and disowned.

  22. Um pebbles can you just write just 1 hit song make money off the royalties n go saddown sumwhere

  23. Pebbles has way too much time on her hands! Has anyone listened to her radio show?

  24. Pebbles was just a fall women whom LA and Clive put in charge! She is remarried and she isn’t doing much from my understanding. I’m sure she has to live up to her lifestyle.
    To sue is the perfect solution
