TLC's Rozonda “Chilli” Thomas and Tionne “T-Boz” Watkins took the stage at the 2024 iHeartRadio Music Awards on Monday night (April 1) to perform some of their biggest hits — and enlisted a current hip-hop star hop to fill in for their late bandmate Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes.
As Peso Pluma and GloRilla revealed in their TLC introduction, they are America's best-selling girl group of all time. And they played two of their biggest hits for the Dolby Theater crowd, starting with the Billboard Hot 100 No.
When “Waterfalls” reached Left Eye's famous rap verse, T-Boz and Chilli welcomed Latto to the stage to take the reins. The 25-year-old rapper, born in December 1998, wasn't even around when he released “Waterfalls” on his blockbuster 1995 album. CrazySexyCool.
Since 2002, when Lopes was killed in a car accident in Honduras, the remaining members of TLC have decided to move on as a duo, never replacing the rapper.
In addition to their appearance on Monday night's show, TLC also accepted the iHeartRadio Landmark Awards for their impressive string of radio hits during their 30-year career.
Other performers at the 2024 iHeartRadio Music Awards included Justin Timberlake, Jelly Roll & Lainey Wilson, Green Day, host Ludacris, Tate McRae and a musical tribute to Cher. Taylor Swift won artist of the year at Monday's show along with two other awards and sent a video message to her fans who voted for her win.
