Everyday people and budding entrepreneurs have been using crowd-funding platforms like Kickstarter and Indiegogo to raise capital for their projects or businesses, but the rich and famous aren’t above using the same means to get a little cash money and make their dreams come true. Are you with it?
TLC
Thirteen years ago TLC promised to give their fans a final album but since the death of Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes, that plan has been on hiatus. But the duo just announced that they are headed back to the studio to record their fifth and final album. However, they need some help from their fans and they’re seeking $150,000 via Kickstarter. Contributors could receive TLC’s music video outfits, an exercise class with Chilli, slumber parties, movie dates, phone calls, outgoing voicemail messages, their name in the liner notes, and a whole lot more if they donate to the cause.
