“That’s the time we get to showcase everything that the fans love about us, and we go far beyond the call of duty in rehearsals,” she said. “We don’t play when it comes to that, getting routines together, everything. We love it.”
She also opened up about TLC continuing to perform following Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes' tragic death at age 30 in 2002. “Lisa would have wanted us to continue on, and we definitely keep her memory alive through everything that we do,” said Thomas, noting that fans will “maybe” see a tribute to the rapper on tour.
In a radio interview onRyan Cameron Uncensored, she said that only time will tell if she and Lawrence, 43, will have kids together.
“You never know,” Chilli said on the broadcast, per theNew York Post’s Page Six. “I would never say that [I’m done].”

The singer did note, however, that she does have a prerequisite before she would consider expanding her family. “I gotta be married for sure … and I’m not married, yet,” she explained.
“Joe and I werecommiserating about this planthat we had to have children together … when we were growing up. And I missed the first go around and now he’s starting a new family and I was thinking, ‘Man, it’d be great if we could do it again, when I didn’t have the chance to raise a family together,” Lawrence told the outlet.
