It’s been a year since VH1 aired CrazySexyCool: The TLC Story but Perri “Pebbles” Reid is still upset about the way she was portrayed. How much is she upset? Well, try to the tune of a $40 million lawsuit.
In the biopic, Reid was portrayed as a money-hungry manager who stiffed the members of TLC on their royalties and only allowed them to live off $25 a week. Before and after the biopic aired, Reid was on a mission to clear her name.
