Xscape Calls Alleged Lawsuit From Ex-Group Member LaTocha Scott 'A Scare Tactic,' Reveals They 'Don't Really Speak' To Her
During an interview at 'The Breakfast Club,' legendary R&B group Xscape revealed that a former group member won't be joining them on tour.
LaTocha Scott struck a nerve among fellow group members, some of which played out during their Bravo reality series 'SWV & XSCAPE: The Queens of R&B' last year.
During the series, Kandi Burruss, Tamika Scott, and Tiny Harris tried repeatedly to work things out with their fellow vocalist, however, their relationship failed to improve following season one, prompting Scott, 50, to step away from the group.
When Charlamagne Tha God questioned them about an alleged lawsuit filed by Scott, Burruss, 47, corrected him and replied that she didn't file a lawsuit. "She didn't file a lawsuit against us, she sent a letter to Mona [Scott-Young]," Burruss responded.
"I think it was more of a scare tactic, and again, it didn't work. We kind of already knew our rights," Tiny, 48, added. The host followed up asking how it affected their personal relationship, to which Tiny answered they are not on speaking terms.
"As of right now we don't really have a personal relationship [with LaTocha.] We don't really speak. I don't even think we have her number for real, for real," she continued. "They changed they number, so we just goin' on moving. We just doin' our regular degular thing."
Tamika Scott, blood sister of LaTocha, claimed that she "has a wonderful family," she's a "glam-ma," she has a wonderful "New York" husband, and "life is good."
"Sometimes you have to separate in order for certain people to know your worth. And until they know it, you just be separated — but life goes on," Tamika stated.
According to VIBE, LaTocha's husband, Rocky Bivens was reportedly receiving kickbacks for their shows without the group's knowledge, which was highlighted during the group's hit TV series.
Xscape and SWV will co-headline The Queens of R&B Tour with openers Mya, Total and 702.
"The Queens Of R&B Tour is a testament to the power of what can be accomplished when women come together with respect, admiration and undeniable talent," a Live Nation press release said. "It is a celebration of passion, power, resilience and unstoppable ability to exceed expectations."
The tour kicks off on July 27 in Concord, California, until its final stop on August 18 in Los Angeles.
