Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes, a member of chart-topping US R&B trio TLC, has been
killed in a car crash in Honduras, a spokeswoman for her record label said.
No other details were supplied by the spokeswoman for the label, Arista
Records.
TLC had a number of big hit songs including No Scrubs and Waterfalls and
their most recent album, 1999's FanMail topped the US pop album charts for
five weeks, and won the Grammy for best R&B album the following year.
Lopes, who was in her early 30s, made the headlines in 1994 after she was
arrested for burning down the house of then-boyfriend, former Atlanta
Falcons football player Andre Rison.

Shame, she's had a pretty fucked up life really, I suppose it's
ironic that it should end in such a tragic way. Still it's very sad.
