Chilli TLC's Rozanda 'Chilli' Thomas is reportedly tired of hearing about Destiny's Child.

That is in relation to the group being billed as the "Best Selling Female Group of All Time."

Speaking on that notion Chilli told Essence, "Everyone always credits Destiny's Child as the biggest-selling female group, but it's just not true."

In case you think Chilli is wrong she says "You can't count album sales for each solo project collectively and come up with numbers. I love Destiny's Child, but thank you."

During their peak years, mainly during "Crazy, Sexy, Cool," TLC moved 45 million albums worldwide.

The group's CrazySexyCool (1994), is also noted at being the first diamond certified album by the RIAA for a female group.

In comparison, Destiny's Child, who called 'technically' called it quits in 2005, has sold, according to Nielsen, roughly 50 million albums worldwide, including the group's last album "Destiny Fulfilled"

    Now,TLC is the best. TLC's Crazysexycool was listed on 500 greatest albums of all time. TLC was listed as top 40 women of the video era, 100 sexiest artists, and others.... They are one of the most sucessful girl groups of all time and one of the most sucessful pop groups of all time.

    TLC is the biggest they outsold the spice girls and dc but to me every girl group is differant but TLC stood out the most.

  4. jermaine says:

    tlc will always live on... i dont care if dc sold more which i dont believe... but tlc wasnt like them and i think people should respect da fact that they didnt have to take there clothes off to sell records. tlc music has alot of substances to it and that will live on da next 1000yrs to come.. TLC is just naturally betta and prettier cuz there looks was wat attracted me to then first.

    TLC was global and still to this day, look at it they won the Brit awards two times for best international female group. people know that beyonce tried to compete with TLC cuz destiny's child was hating on TLC just cuz TLC was big like Micheal and Janet and you cant compete with legends that came before you that just that.

  8. Jo says:

    I forgot to post the artilce to look it up encase no one believes Chilli Of The Hit Group TLC Launches Bag Line

  9. Jo says:

    If you read a more recent artile on TLC which is posted on this site it stated that as a group TLC has sold 150 million albums world wide and if you read anything on Destinys Child everythingsays they have sold 50 to a 100 million albums world wide. So TLC still hold the world record as the best selling female group of all time. If you dont believe look up the article. The artlce is . So Chilli was right they even out sold the spice girls!!!!!

  10. Emily says:

    I do not think you people read....It says that TLC has sold 45 million records worldwide and Destiny's Child has sold 50 million records worldwide....Destiny's Child won the the title of "highest selling female group worldwide" which is based off of worldwide sales which according to this report they outsold TLC. BUT SPICE GIRLS STILL SOLD EVEN MORE THAN THAT!
