The actress who played Left Eye was scary good


She really looked, sounded, and moved like Left Eye. She really did her homework in studying Lisa.

The other two were okay, but they really struggled with the video portions. Esp the actress who played T Boz. She just didn't have 'it' when it came to performing.

But a great movie IMO.

Yea and the whole messed up part about it was everyone was doubting her, laughing at her saying she could never pull that part off. But she proved everyone wrong!

Lil Mama was the best out of all three actresses!

co-sign,

So many people were doubting lil Mama.
She out acted Akeela and the Bee!

Tyler Perry will be knocking on her door soon.


You don't know me.
You only think you do.

Yeah, Lil Mama acted circles around Keke Palmer (Chille). A lot of people in the music industry don't like Lil Mama for I guess how she highjacked Jay Z's performance..but I think she definately redeemed herself with this role.

"She out acted Akeela and the Bee!"

LMAO!!!! #DiesFromLaughter

I think Drew S. acted well, but she and Keke P. didn't perform like TLC - Lil Mama, both acted and performed the musical parts well

I agree with you. I felt she did the best job at portraying her role. But for me Keke was the weakest, I didn't feel like I was watching a portrayal of Chilli.

reply

Agree MOMMA killed that *beep* She looked dead like her and played the part she killed the role...my husband was impressed with the Chille girl, T boz sucked.... Nother the less great film

reply

I never doubted Lil Mamma I always thought she looked like Left Eye I was just hoping she would pull off playing Lisa. Rap wise I don't think she can rap that song she had lipstick or whatever it was called....no. Anyways, If Lil Mamma didn't play her I would liked for Natina Reed of Blaque to play her but she passed last year. Lil Mamma really did an amazing job she really looked like Left Eye and had me thinking I was seeing Lisa in her.

KeKe did great as Chilli I knew she would do a good job she seem to always get picked for playing these stories. Check her out on the Carlina White story.

Drew Sidora pulled off the T-Boz looked and the voice. She did just fine.


It was like each of these ladies did their work and studies the ladies of TLC and took what they learned and showed us who was boss.

reply

I thought all the ladies did a great job, but Lil' Mama was especially spectacular. She completely embodied Left Eye. She had her voice down, certain mannerisms and expressions, everything. She really did a great job.

Love,

Yes all three were great!!

reply

I couldnt agree more! The other two were just okay in my opinion. The chick that played Left Eye came out of left field with this performance. I had never even heard of her before this movie

Yes. Lil Mama NAILED her role as Left Eye in this film.

reply

Agreed! I was/am a HUGE fan of Lisa's and I am not a fan of Lil Mama, but the entire film had me doing double-takes and reminding myself "that is not actually Lisa." She had her mannerisms, voice, etc. The other two were really not that good, though. I was disappointed in them.

reply

Don't really care for Little Mamma, but she could have won an Oscar for this, and I would not protest.

reply

And you know what else? The fact that she didn't have the advantage of Left Eye being on set to "coach" her made her performance all the more amazing.

If you are reading this, you have just lost The Game.
