video that went viral. And all this came after she made headlines for posing nude in French magazine Liu.
TLC was not impressed. The groundbreaking female R&B duo spoke out on the
Red carpet style darRihanna has never been shy about
showing some skin, but she made some major shockwaves when she showed
up in a sheer, sparkling gown at the Council of Fashion Designers Awards
on Monday. The outfit left almost nothing to the imagination, and even
less when she twerked for friends in a Sunrise morning
show in Australia, where they're currently playing sold-out shows. The
Grammy-winning group criticized the "Diamonds" singer for constantly
flaunting her body and using sex to sell records.TLC discusses Rihanna at the 2:00 mark in the video below:
"Every time I see you, you don't have to be naked," said Tionne "T-Boz" Watkins.
"We became the biggest girl
selling group of all time with our clothes on and that says a lot," she
added. "We could go around too with booby cakes [breasts] out all day
long," she said.
"It's easy to sell sex," they added. 'It's hard for us to say anything because any time we do, they say, 'Oh, TLC must be jealous,' but I call a spade a spade," T-Boz added.
Harsh criticism, to be sure, but
it appears that RiRi may end up having the last laugh. In a clever,
strategic maneuver, she changed her Twitter header to a photo of the
members of TLC... topless. Oops! So while TLC may have had a valid point, Rihanna cleverly undermined them by making them look like hypocrites.
