Tlc Set To Tour With Lisa 'Left Eye' Lopes

TLC are set to reunite for a North America tour, 10 years after the death of Lisa 'Left Eye' Lopes.

The 'No SCRUBS' group's surviving members, Tionne 'T-Boz' Watkins and Rozonda 'Chilli' Thomas - who disbanded in 2002 after releasing their fourth album, '3D' - will perform a series of dates across the US with Lisa's image projected on to a big screen and her vocals incorporated into the shows.

Lisa tragically died at the age of 30 in a car accident on April 25, 2002 in Honduras but Tionne and Rozonda want to honour her memory by including her in their tour, which already has five dates lined up and more planned, according to gossip website TMZ.

Meanwhile, following the success of fellow 90s superstar Tupac Shakur being resurrected in hologram form at Coachella music festival in California, there are plans to bring back deceased singer Elvis Presley for a show with Justin Bieber.

Speaking to NME, Sanj Surati, Head of Music at the Musion Technology, The Firm who created the hologram, said bringing Elvis to perform onstage with 'Boyfriend' hitmaker Justin ''would be a cool thing''.

When asked about who else he would like to see resurrected for a concert, he replied: ''Jimi Hendrix, Kurt Cobain, oh and Michael Jackson would be the ultimate one. Maybe even Whitney Houston.''

Kimber you are so right! Justin Beiber and the rest of them will NEVER be on the same level as Michael Jackson. All of them have tried to do remakes of MJ's songs or do attempts of his steps from Beiber to Chris Brown, Usher etc., when they should just be themselves, instead of trying to fit into the shoes (or glove) of Michael Jackson. If you look at any video today you WILL see Michael's style on some level in all of today's pretenders of MJ's artistry. Don't they know that they broke the mold when Michael Jackson first hit the stage. There never will be another Michael Jackson. I wish good luck to his brothers on their up and coming tour. I'm sure their tribute to Michael will be what we have come to expect from the Jackson family. Perfection!

I remember Natalie Cole doing a duet video with her dad years ago, the song was "Unforgetable". Janet Jackson did "Scream" with Michael and now TLC with the late "Left Eye", those are cool because they all were either family and/or already had performed together and there was a special meaning behind it. As far as Justin Bieber, he's a dweeb! He so wants to be in the "inner" circle that he will never be. What on earth does Bieber have in common with Elvis or Jimmy Hendrix, niether would give him the time of day if still alive. As far as Michael, Justin is not even in the same eliment and will never come close to Michael's talent. Dream on Bieber, dream on.
