Pebbles Releases Official Statement Slamming TLC Movie: I have NEVER cheated or Mislead Anyone

As promised, Pebbles is giving her side of the VH1 movie, Crazy Sexy Cool: the TLC Story. This week, she released the following message on her Facebook page.

Statement from Perri Reid pka Pebbles

First I want to thank all of you for the well wishes and prayers. I apologize for the delay in responding to the movie, but I wanted to gather my thoughts. I have always been a private person and this unprovoked attack has been extremely upsetting to me and my family. I have needed time to spend with my family and for personal reflection.The movie contains many false and defamatory statements and scenes about me. Please know that I have never cheated or mislead anyone. I will defend my reputation, accomplishments, and character. My attorney is in the process of demanding a retraction of the false and defamatory statements and scenes about me from VH1.

She continued:

My silence has empowered individuals looking for a payday at my expense. I have held my peace for 20 years and it’s time the truth comes out. I will be sharing my story in the appropriate venue at the appropriate time. With all my heart I thank you for your faithful support.I am extremely proud of the success and massive accomplishments of TLC—the group I discovered, managed, and mentored. I helped push open doors for TLC and other women in this male dominated industry. My sacrifices ultimately opened the door for not only a new wave of female performers in this industry but also a new generation of female executives. That backdrop makes the movie extremely personally upsetting to me.

Last week, we shared that Pebbles will be lawyering up to sue TLC for defamation. And according to this statement, her camp is working on a retraction AND sharing her story.

Interesting, right?
