It's been 10 years since the tragic car accident that led to the death of TLC's resident rap queen Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes.
Earlier this week, on the anniversary of her death, it was announced that the threesome, including surviving members Tionne "T-Boz" Watkins and Rozonda "Chilli" Thomas, would reunite once again on tour later this year.

According to TMZ, a representative for the group says T-Boz and Chilli are currently in the planning stages of a massive 2012 reunion tour in the U.S." and five cities have been booked with more in the works.
However, what will be extraordinary about this reunion tour is that Lopes will be joining T-Boz and Chilli on stage in a projector form in the style of Tupac's resurrection during the 2012 Coachella music and arts festival.

"[The group will be] incorporating their deceased former member Left Eye in the shows," TMZ reports. "[By] projecting her image on a big screen and working her vocals into the live performances."
However, as Billboard adds, "The duo intends to use archival footage, not a newly generated digital performance."
During their prime, TLC had ten top 10 singles with tracks like "Ain't 2 Proud 2 Beg" and "Diggin' On You," four number one singles like "Creep" and "No Scrubs", four multi-platinum albums, including the iconic "CrazySexyCool," and four Grammy Awards.
This news of incorporating their lost member into their upcoming reunion tour comes on the heels of the pending release of their greatly anticipated VH1 made-for-TV movie, a new album project and the 20th anniversary of TLC.
