Hoping 4 a settlement.

I see she's still trying to convince people that she's not the sleazy,money-hungry,manipulative bitch that she is portrayed to be Give it up,already.There's too much evidence to the contrary.

She is a shrewd businesswoman, but I think Viacom needs to settle this with her, because it made her out to be damn near a crook! I know the movie needed a villain, but dayum.

The real major villain in the TLC story was Clive Davis.

years before a movie was ever considered when lefteye was still alive the talk was pebbles ripped them girls the hell off. pebbles was a no talent in her own careeer so she used la reid fame to build her career and ripped these girls off

Pebbles won't get a cent. Viacom will fight her on this one, and really what can she do, if T-Boz and Chili don't deny that she was that kind of boss to them, and approved and consulted on the movie that they made?

If she thinks there's a chance in hell that she can win this, she's delusional.

I'm betting that her lawyer hopes Viacom will pay her to go away.

I'd make that Bet as well. 1 to 5% of $40 million sounds good for doing NOTHING.

Exactly.

I hate Pebbles. She's so greedy.

TBH, everytime her song comes up on the radio, I change the station. That's how much I don't like her anymore.

She said before the first album was completed, TLC began to try to change contract terms to cut her out of the deal. She believes TLC filed for bankruptcy in 1995 as “a legal ploy to renege on, and be released from, its contractual obligations to Ms. Reid.”

I can see that side of the story, actually. Industry people would try to cut people out of agreements. Young Money tried to burn Nicki Minaj's original manager when she signed. (40:41 http://youtu.be/Jo6pJhPXUMA?t=40m41s)

Yeah,it wasn't enough for her to be married to L.A. Reid (who was a part of the hottest production duo at the time),she wanted another way to make millions.TLC was her ticket.

The girls from TLC made it NO SECRET how they felt about the shitty contract they signed with Pebbles.

It's a tale as old as Billboard, but it is what it is. Prince didn't walk around for years with SLAVE on his face for nothing. Artists have been getting the shaft forever.

So when you get called out for being shady, just sit back and count your millions. You know what you did. Stop trying to come across as "offended".

Exactly Pebbles knows that she did those girls wrong.She needs to stop this phony,"how dare they portray me like that?!" attitude because nobody's buying it.

Of course, Viacom didn't cast him as the villain. Let Pebbles get her forty mill.

I remembered Pebbles dragging Clive Davis' name into this mess on The Wendy Williams show this year.

The only positive from all this is hopefully some record royalties for TLC, but does Pebbles win from that too? I haven't heard of any sorta Pebbles hits album or new music from her. If she's such a talented artist/businesswoman you'd think she would be performing rather than paying for tabloid articles to quote her.

Pebbles is a reborn again christian & evangelist! She can't sing those nasty,raunchy songs about "riding" in a "Mercedes Boy" anymore... She also use to mentor the late Whitney Houston...

As an "artist",Pebbles is forgettable.She had a few "cute" singles in the late 80s,but nobody's checkin' for her these days she was the R&B version of Stacy Q.

Marrying LA Reid was her smartest career move.It kept her in the spotlight a few more years.She would have otherwise been "over" after 1988.
