Rihanna turned a few heads, and sharpened a few tongues, when she strutted down the red carpet in a nude, sparkling dress for the CFDA awards in New York last week. T-Boz and Chilli, TLC's surviving members, were widely reported to have said in response, "Every time I see you, you don't have to be naked", (and also something about booby cakes, which is a new one on us) though the former has since taken to Twitter to claim the comments weren't directed at Rihanna, who, in turn, posted a Twitter of TLC topless on her Twitter page. Are you keeping up at the back?
