Appearing on Channel 7's Sunrise last Friday morning ahead of their sold out Sydney gig, Tionne 'T-Boz' Watkins, 44, and Rozonda 'Chilli' Thomas, 43, had a clear message for the 26-year-old Rude Boy singer.
'Every time I see you, you don't have to be naked,' T-Boz said.
The duo, who are currently touring Australia said using sex and being naked is the easy way to get to the top in the music industry.
'It's easy to sell sex,' the duo, who have five Grammy and MTV awards under their belts, said.
“It's hard for us to say anything because any time we do, they say, 'Oh TLC must be jealous”, but I call a spade a spade,' T-Boz added.
'We became the biggest girl selling group of all time with our clothes on and that says a lot,' Chilli chimed in.
'We could go around too with booby cakes (breasts) out all day long,' she said referring to Rihanna's choice of see-through dress for last Monday's Council of Fashion Designers of America Awards.
