Last week, Chilli Thomas accepted the Legacy Award on behalf of TLC at Variety’s Power of Women luncheon. She acknowledged her group mates and talked about their past and upcoming tour in her acceptance speech. At the event, she also talked to Page Six and dished about her relationship with Matthew Lawerence. She talked about how real and amazing their relationship is and how he’s changed everything about how she looks at relationships. Aw!
He’s no scrub.
Chilli gushed over her “amazing” romance with Matthew Lawrence at Variety’s Power of Women luncheon this week.
“It’s real and there is nothing fake about it,” the TLC singer, whose real name is Rozonda Thomas, told Page Six at the event. “I’m here with him because I wanna be and he wants to be. We’re just so happy, we really are.
“I honestly didn’t think that I would experience what I’m experiencing now and I was OK with that.”
The “No Scrubs” singer added that she was never someone who needed to be in a relationship.
“He has changed everything, the way I look at relationships. It’s so different,” she swooned.
However, Chilli declined to say whether a marriage was in the cards for the pair.
“We’re still in the beginning stages so we’ll see,” she said with a laugh.
Okay, maybe I’m just a cynical single, but I do roll my eyes a bit when people gush as much as these two, their reps, and his brothers have been gushing. Even T-Boz has confirmed she approves. It’s a lot, from all sides! They just got together around the holidays and confirmed their relationship in January. So it’s fairly new and they’re still in the honeymoon phase and new relationships often are like this. They can feel special and amazing and one-of-a-kind in the beginning. Anyway, it’s nice that they seem to be on the same page and it’s not one of them that seems more in love than the other. At first I thought it was Matthew, with his talk about kids and the full bloom of love, but it seems like Chilli is right there with him. It’s nice that they’re so happy. I’d just be happy if Chilli dropped her skincare routine.
I don’t have the words to describe how cute they are together. Not to mention, talk about UNLIKELY couples! Who would have thunk it? Do you think Chili watched Blossom?
🎵🎵 ain’t nothing my love can’t give to you, baby, whoa-oh-oh 🎵🎵
is that how that song goes? I’m nearing the end of a 14 hour shift and am more than a little delirious……
Rumor is he’s *already* cheating on her.
Chili’s skin care routine is melanin. LOL
Side note: WTF are Chilli and T-Boz wearing in that photo?
I SO hope he’s not cheating on her already. She’s been through so much in her life and I want her to have what she wants. Eff this guy if he’s not it. She DESERVES it, for God’s sake. I’m so angry at all the jerks that hurt her in her life and I pray he’s not another one.
@JFerber- Amen! Also, if he DOES have the audacity to cheat on Chilli, he will definitely cease to be cute(ish) and will immediately revert back to the lame, goofy-looking, aging boybander has-been that I thought he was up until 2 days ago.
If I’m being honest, in the back of my mind I thought that Chilli was doing him WAY too big a favor, but was staying positive b/c she deserves some happiness……..
