  Speaker 3: you know, I guess I don't know if you call
• 0:33
  Speaker 3: it a health scare health issue, so you.
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: Know, honestly, I would have never told nobody, and I
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: hate people being in my business. There's plenty of times
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: I've been in the hospital for sickle cell and I
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: don't tell because I don't like all this attention. Although
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: I do want to say thank you for all those
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: who have prayed for me. And you know, oh, oh,
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: I almost dropping my phone. Sorry asked about me. I
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: appreciate that, but uh, I just wanted to clarify sense
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: it was out there. I guess they had to tell
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: people because I missed shows for insurance reasons and the
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: promoter and stuff like that. I just think it was
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: a little bit tea detailed and then now not enough details.
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: So what happened to me can happen to anyone. What
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: happened was I was feeling totally fine. I had got
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: to Syracuse, New York. Off the plane, I ate something,
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: so that's why I thought I had food poisoning. My
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: stomach felt like if the Incredible Hawk took it and
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: just said hope, smash, like it was.
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: A variable thing.
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: It was like I couldn't stand up, I couldn't talk,
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: I couldn't walk. And when the doctor came to see
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: me to prove that I was sick, he immediately was like,
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: she has to go in and admit her. I got
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: there and they was talking about going on the surgery side.
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: I'm like, oh up, wait a minute. What So what
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: happened was is I had a C section twenty four
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: years ago. So this can happen to any man who
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: has had abdominal surgery, any woman who has had a
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: c section or five or assists removal, anything done to
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: your domino that causes adhesions, which is scar tissue, so
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: your small intestines move around. And it had nothing to
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: do with constipation. No, I'm not on a zempic. No,
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: it had nothing to do with sickle cell. It was
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: just merely scar tissue hit my lower intestine and kinked
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: it and blocked it off. Wow, and it moved and
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: healed itself and unkinked. That's how easy it was. But
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: this is something people die from. It's very serious. Some
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: people have to have some of their colon or intestines
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: removed or scar tissue, and many have died from this.
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: It's not diverticulitis. I seen a lot of people trying
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: to diagnose me. You know what I'm saying. Everybody was
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: a doctor all of a sudden. But yeah, so I said, so, well,
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: since my business is out there, let me turn this
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: into an educational thing and let people know this is
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: really a thing, because I had no idea. The doctor said,
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: he's had eight year old who have fifty year old surgeries,
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: and this can happen. It can happen to anyone at
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: any time, and then most cases it heals itself like
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: mine did. And I'm three days out, I'm already working again.
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: I leave Friday for my next show. Ready already, I'm
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: back up and at them. There's no pains right now
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: or anything like that, Like you're not in pain, nothing,
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: nothing at all. I'm eating normal diet. The first three
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: days were testing. They put me on ivy fluid payments,
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: a medication called Bentos for stomach spasms, because that's what
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: what hurts so bad, is the vomiting and the spasms.
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: It was like ten times more than a childbirth contractions, right,
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: And I can't even That's why I said, I have
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: to say hoaxmas, because that's the only thing I could
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: think of. Somebody strong just ripping your stomach like that.
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: And I never knew that your stomach could even hurt
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: hurt like that, you know. But what was disheartening to
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: me was just like reading some of the jokes and stuff,
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: Oh she just needed the poop, y'all. Nothing's funny about
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: people fighting for their life or having surgery. Other loved
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: ones have died from this. Nothing's funny about people's health.
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: And I just also it irritates me that anything that
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: happens to me, it's like, oh, you know, she got
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: them simple sales. No, I'm tea on Watkins. I just
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: happen to have a disease, but it's not who I
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: am and all that I am and everything not associated
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: with sickle cell. Everybody, That's what I mean, That's what
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: I thought.
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: I didn't express that, but I just said to myself,
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: I just assumed it was the sickle cell. But I'm
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: sure when you first started feeling ill, you know your
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: body and you've experienced sickle cell before, so you knew
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: immediately this was something different.
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it was something different with sickle cell. I can't
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: even tell y'all like I just got out of the
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: hospital of the week before last from a crisis. Like people,
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: I don't share this at all. I keep my private
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: private because I don't even like all this attention. I
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: don't you know what I'm saying, And I never tell
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: when I'm in the hospital. If y'all knew how many
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: times I've been there, shit, we'd be having these interviews
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: every year, every other month, you know what I mean.
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: Because there's no cure and I still deal with it.
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: But I just want to clarify that every time somebody
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: hears something about me, they just instantly think it's my
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: sickle tell and that's just not true. I just want
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: people to know this can happen to all y'all, like
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: any and everybody. Like this happens to men all the time.
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: I know a couple of men who have died from it. Yeah,
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: this happens. I just never knew it could happen from adhesions.
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: You know from.
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: I seen you clapping back a lot. Did you feel
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: like you had to answer these people? I've seen people
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: saying that the kid the show should be canceled, you
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: should leave the group. But you were clapping back like
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: it really bothered you what people were actually saying about you.
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's good, you to tell me to quit my
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: damn job. Like life is life, Life comes with stuff
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: like life ain't easy. But you don't never hear me complain.
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: I don't get on stage and say I just came
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: from the ambulance. I did our HBO special straight from
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: the ambulance out the hospital, went right back. But you
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: ain't never heard me complain. I ain't never said nothing.
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. But if you work hard
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: for something and you like what you do, who are
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: you to tell me to stop? My stomach issue didn't
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: have anything with me stopping my career. I'm not stopping
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: Chili from going on doing what she wants to do
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: solo or anybody else. You know what I'm saying. It's
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: not stopping anything for anybody but me, and if I
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: am okay, I'm not stupid. I'm not gonna go out
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: there and kill myself for no one and know nothing.
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: That's why the show was canceled because I knew better
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: I can't do it. I know how to say I
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: can't do it, but I love performing. It's in my
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: heart to send my soul. I'm gonna do it. But
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: when it's time to stop, then I'll stop. Then I
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: will stop. You know what I'm saying. But I know
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: what my body can do, and I know what I
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: can't do, and anything you want in life, the way
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: I look at it, I was dealt these cars. I
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: was born this way, so I don't know any different.
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: So for me, I knew I had to do and
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: go the extra mile to do what I want to do.
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: But this is what I want, so then I do that.
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: That's what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna do that because
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: this is what I want to do, and this is
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: what I chose So, okay, I do a lot more
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: than your average artists to get up there. But I
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: chose this life and and that's something I knew that
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: I would have to deal with. But when it's time
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: for me to send my black mind down, trust me,
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: I do. I do.
• 7:28
  Speaker 4: So you're going back out on the road that you
• 7:30
  Speaker 4: said Friday This Friday Friday.

  Speaker 1: It's October. I just rescheduled one today, October twenty fifth.
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: So don't hold me to that. You know, things happen,
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: but that's what we're talking about. And I just lokat
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: did today tea boss? We've grown as hell? Now?
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: Is it harder to toil as you get older? Do
• 8:09

• 8:11
  Speaker 1: You see us a child? It's hard for everybody. Hell,
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: everybody out here get hurt, you know what I'm saying.
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: So the average person. Touring is hard, like don't you
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: ain't gotta have a disease to take a break or
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: get an injury. It's hard out here. My dances be
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: broke down at twenty, you know what I'm saying. So no,
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: I ain't gonna lie like, yeah, things are harder. That's
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: why I'm gearing up to retire probably next year. It
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: would be my last. So if y'all want to come
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: to CTC, I suggest you do it now because I'm
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: not gonna be doing this much longer because I am
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: fifty four, but I'm blessed. I was told I wouldn't
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: live till I wouldn't live past thirty. I'm fifty four.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: It's still on stage, selling at arenas, in the stadiums,
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: like come on, man, traveling the world. This is like
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: a dream and something that I prayed for and God
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: gave it to me. So when God and my body
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: says the time to stop, that I will stop. I
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: ain't crazy, like you know what I'm saying. So I'm
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: not gonna kill myself doing this. You know, and I
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: don't dance as much as I used to. I want
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: to put that out there, like I know you only
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: dropped down just a little bit. Yeah, I feel got it.
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: I ain't Eddie Kine in it, you know, like nights
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: like this, I ain't out here.
• 9:23
  Speaker 4: But how did you know it was time to retire?
• 9:26
  Speaker 4: You just said the word retired, and it kind of
• 9:28
  Speaker 4: made my heart drop a little bit. Touring got you.
• 9:33
  Speaker 4: You gotta clare, okay, because when you said that, I
• 9:35
  Speaker 4: was like.
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: Oh, wait, no, I ain't going nowhere. We're gonna be
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: doing other things. But retired from touring because it is
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: hard on your body, and because I have simple sell
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: I don't want to when it's time to spend time
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: with my children, I don't want to, you know, be
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: like broke down Benny, you know, tow it from the
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: flow up. No, So I'm gonna stop and and do
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: other things. I can spend more time with my children
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: and stuff like that, you know what I'm saying. So
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna do the rest. I have learned how to
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: pace myself on stage.
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: What did your children say? What does your doing? I
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: know you have a twenty two or twenty three year old,
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: so she knows what it is. What does she say
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: that she say? Mama, sit your ass down?
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: What is your day? Mom? Don't go on no more tours,
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: forget all that you gave your life to these people.
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: Stop thirty two years. So I said, you know what,
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: You're right. I have thirty two years I've given to y'all.
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: I'm done. I just want to end it the right way,
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: kind of like how Michael Jordan went out. I gave
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: it to you, and I want to bow out gracefully
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: the right way, that's all. So I want to do, like,
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: you know, a bye bye and thank you for you know,
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: this lovely career and your support, and then you'll see
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: me doing other things. But just you know, it is
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: hard on my body. I have a tor moniscus that
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: I've had a bad need for like twenty something years,
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: and I'm gonna finally go ahead and have surgery on.
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: I kept juicing it up with steroids, but it's really
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: doing more damage because you know, you can't fill the damage.
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: But it's so I think that, you know, I write
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: movie scripts, I executive produce movies. I produce, you know,
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: So I want to get into some of my other
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: passions and I'll probably come out with some more music.
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: But just dancing all over the place, it took a
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: lot and I'm not gonna lie because I'm a dancer
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: by heart. It took a lot from me to learn
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: how to pace myself on stage because I see somebody
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: and I'm competitive. I want to go get it, you
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. I'm like, are you trying? Me?
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: Are trying? You know? So I want to just dance.
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: But everybody will tell y'all take it easy because I don't
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: have nothing to prove. Everybody know I could dance and
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: you can't lose that. I hate when people be like,
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: she still got a girl. I'm never gonna lose. I'm
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: always have that, and that's my body just gonna allow. Huh.
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: Dance is harder to do right now, to creep dance
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: or the waterfall dance.
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: Neither one those are easy. As I'll get out. I
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: could do that in my sleep out the hospital bed
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: while I'm having a sickle cell crisis. The ones that
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: are hard are the ones that you're down on your
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: knees and stuff like that. Only because my right me,
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: my my left me. I can still get down there now,
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: you know. But my right knee is just torn from
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: all the damage. It's just like being an athlete. It's
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: wear and tear.
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: You know, I wanted to know. You know, you're saying
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: that you might retire and it's almost so as far
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: as touring is concerned. Do you feel like TC gets
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: the credit and everything that they deserve for as much
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: as you guys have done and how you've changed the game,
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: the sex talk that you guys have, you know, started
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: in those conversations, you feel like you get the respect
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: and you know, just do that you guys deserve.
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: I'm the older audience who knows. But from the youngsters,
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: they have no idea, you know what I'm saying. I mean,
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: but you know I don't. I don't look for praise.
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: I know what I do. But I did a glad
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: commercial recently, you know, and you know, a product deal,
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: and in our world that's a big deal. You know
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying. It's just funny. The TikTokers thought differently.
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: They thought it was I was embarrassing myself. They said, uh,
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: it was as bad as when Mary did Burger King,
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: like what I committed. Like, but anybody who got common
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: sense knows that that's a billion dollar company. Dummy, right,
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: you're crazy, and that that check for that thirty huh No,
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: It's okay that that check for that uh like thirty
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: you know, second little dance is good boo boo. And
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: I'm not doing it for the money. But it's Glad.
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: Don't we all have Glad and Chlorox in our house.
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: Don't you use trash bags? Ain't nothing wrong with that.
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: That's a great thing. From where we're from, we all
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: try to get product deals. I wish I could have
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: got him earlier on, so you're gonna see me doing
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: more product Funny, how.
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: Do you choose?
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: Is there a part of you that feels like you
• 13:37
  Speaker 3: you you might be trying to make up for lost
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: time because of all the money y'all didn't make.
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: When you No, because you know, everything happens for a reason.
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: I'm not making up for lost time. I'm just doing
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: what makes sense, you know what I'm saying. I really
• 13:50

  Speaker 3: For the record, for the youngsters that don't know, TLC
• 18:32

  Speaker 3: I know that you never discussed your health stuff like
• 18:50
  Speaker 3: you said, and you've been dealing with all these forever,
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: so sing I'm sorry that you have to be out
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: here explaining this.
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: No, thank you for giving me the platform to do it.
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: I just thought, like, you know, since it's out there,
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: why don't I share this with women? Because I was
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: sitting there baffled myself, like I might have to have surgery?
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: What this is the thing? I never even knew this
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: could happen or existed. So since it's out there, I
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: was like, well, let me just let people know, you know,
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: everything and what it really was. Because the jokes, I
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: just think people are just so insensitive. I don't know
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: if it's the video games or the violence and movies
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: people are so desensitized because I'm like, people's loved ones
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: can die from this, and it's just not funny, you know.
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: I'll just tell her to go poop. That's not funny.
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: That's not funny. And there were no warning signs out
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: before you start. I flew to Syracuse. I was feeling fine, dancing, singing,
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: acting silly like I always do. And then next thing
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: you know, I just got a cramp and I got
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: off the phone with my friend, like on my stomach
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: curs and then next thing you know, they're every two
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: to three minutes apart, and I'm like, I remember it
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: being two thirty, laying in a f the position, vomiting
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: like twelve times, and literally it was like eight something
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: by time I looked up, like I didn't even know,
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: like I was in so much pain. It was light,
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: and then it's dark and it's hours later and I'm
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: not even aware, you know, and they're taking me to
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: the hospital and met me immediately and talking about surgery.
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: I'm like, whoa, but I didn't have to have surgery.
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: And I'm eating normal, no pains at all, like it
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: never happens, and everything's just fine. And that was baffling
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: to me from how much pain I was in. I
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: was like, because I like asking can I eat? And
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: he was like, honey, it has to do with the
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: outside of your intestines, not the inside. And I'm like,
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: whoa you know? So that was huh is it called again?
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: It's called an abdominal obstruction. Okay, yeah, so.
