    Watch: Toni Braxton Discusses Struggles On Vh1 ‘Behind The Music’

    Written by TriniTrent | Filed under Toni Braxton
    Toni Braxton Behind the Music TheLavaLizard

    Toni Braxton appears on Vh1′s ‘Behind the Music’.

    Toni Braxton’s episode of Vh1′s ‘Behind the Music’ aired earlier this evening and it was a candid look into the life of one of the industry’s most celebrated divas. Chatting about her to rise to fame, health problems and even a clash with Oprah Winfrey, Braxton was open while chatting about everything.

    Backed by her sisters, mother, LA Reid and Babyface, Braxton revealed how she became a global success in the 1990s before becoming trapped by financial issues that almost grounded her career. In fact, those money problems lead her to ‘The Oprah Winfrey Show’ where the talk show giant publicly slammed her.

    Additionally, Braxton spoke about how she has coped with an autistic son, the end of her marriage and much more. Watch her full episode of ‘Behind the Music’ below:

      Sorry for what, asking her questoins that everybody wanted to know and was whispering about her? How can you spend money you don’t have (Gucci silverware)? Please Toni made herself looked foolish on that Oprah interview. I remember Toni telling Oprah that when she was on tour she didn’t have sponsors i.e. Pepsi;Taco Bell; Coca-Cola, so she end up having to pay for everything. You mean to tell me that she couldn’t call up Whitney or Mariah and asked them do you need sponsors for your tour? Also, she told Oprah that when she was on tour she would let other people signed her checks- really? This woman has filed for bankruptcies three times the last time was in 2010. Toni clearly doesn’t know how to manage her money, so ya’ll can believe the hype but something is not right with Ms. Toni

        no twice she was made bankrupt
        first time she was young egaer signed a deal that she shouldnt have signed knew no better and was told that thats how fame worked u paid everything u need limos u need this u need that
        of course she will say yes shes new young eager to please and its better then her working in macdonalds right?
        2nd time she was ill out of her control the insurance wouldn’t pay but should have

      The bottom line is her record label screwed the crap out of her. It wasn’t so much about misapprpopriating her money. They were trifling not to pay such an amazing artist. These artists put in way too much hard work not to be compensated for it.

    • …

      i really love and appreciate how honest she is.. its rare with these artists today who are filled with propaganda and lies.
