Lisa Nicole Lopes (May 27, 1971 - April 25, 2002), better known by her stage         
name Left Eye, was an American rapper, singer, songwriter and member of the           
popular R&B group TLC.

contributed her own self-written raps to many of TLC's popular singles,               
including "Waterfalls" and "No Scrubs". Lopes was also a self-taught keyboardist     
and displayed those talents during her solo spot on TLC's headlining concert         
performances. She was known for wearing a pair of glasses with a condom in place     
of the left eye lens, which was one of the ways the group promoted safe sex.
