A major detail in the upcoming biopic about R&B group TLC has been revealed.
In an interview with Hip Hollywood, MC Lyte revealed that rapper Lil Mama has landed the role of Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes, who died in 2002 in a car crash in La Ceiba, Honduras.
“I’m gonna put a little bit of my concentration and focus on helping to uplift a sister who is talented, smart, witty, and just had her chances just cut too short,” explained Lyte. “And that’s Lil Mama. She is a talented young lady, and I want to see her do some beautiful things.”
“And, I don’t know if I’m supposed to say, but I will: she just got the role of Left Eye in TLC’s new movie. So I am just so excited for her.”
MC Lyte also revealed that she, Lil Mama and others are working on a Hip Hop Sisters album together.
Lil Mama was featured on Left Eye’s 2009 posthumous release, Eye-Legacy.

How the f*ck this happen??? You gotta be kidding me…she should be playing Bow Wow in a biopic. Y’all should checkout http://www.thegrandrport.com too, they usually have some good reads as well
She is not the best actress for this role, instead it should be played by Lil B.
Lil B, just stop. Some of your comments are funny but this one sucked. as far as Lil Mama getting the role…. I have no comment.
cry baby ass niggaz…just stop…sounds like a little girl.
This is an absolute insult. Must be a low budget film
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA
????????????????????? Wat
she kinda looks like her i guess..i have no problem with this
They already made a movie about Left Eye. It was called Firestarter.
lol. shit made burst out laughin
I was gonna say the same thing. This is an insult. She def can play bow wow, not left eye. Wonder if games gonna get a lil mama tattoo now. Still wondering why she jumped on stage with jay. Maybe she was upset he was using 9/11 as a platform to promote his album. Smart biz move, shitty move as a human. None of those families saw a penny. Spike tv let’s him get free air time to promote that shitty ass album. Raekwons album was much better neway. Just had to blow off steam, sorry for going off on a tangent.
probably some lifetime movie bullshit. they get all the washed up actors/entertainers to play in their tv movies. Like Lindsay Lohan. And Lil Mama. And Rob Lowe.
Rob Lowe has been on a hit tv show for the past couple years (Parks & Rec). How exactly is he washed up?
if t-boz and chili are cool wit it (which they probably are) then i think its fine.
lmao all these people acting like Left eye was jesus or somthin. who else should they get
Your mom.
your sister
^ LMAO typical white boy response. OP was saying the truth!!!
Your grandmother. btw Im not white.
can Charlamagne Tha God be on set u know for those emotional scenes he can bring em out of her lol
How in God’s name is this talentless broad cast to play an iconic pop star with a turbulent past?Oh yeah that’s right.MC Lyte is a carpet muncher and Lil Mama probably ate the box to get the part..Got it..and if this dumb chick’s career derailed it’s because she was dumb enough to crash a stage she had no business being on..
Y’all niggas just exposed yourselves. A grown man caring about a washed up female R&B trio?!?!? What the fuck is that???
expozay is a bitch nigga…maybe the lead role should go to him.
nevermind the movie hip hop sisters album could interesting with the chicks they can get
