Chilli is looking for a man and she's doing it on reality TV!

In an exclusive interview with Essence Magazine, R&B singer Chilli and 1/3 of the group TLC is speaking about her new dating reality show set to premiere on VH1 this fall. (Why on a reality show? I love Chilli but again why do you need to find love on reality TV?). Check out some excerpts from the interview:

ESSENCE.COM: Miss Chilli, you are on the prowl! How did you end up with a dating reality show?

CHILLI: Our producer from TLC's show "R U the Girl?" was fascinated by my outlook on men and thought I was too picky. Years later we developed a show to help me find someone. I was very clear it couldn't be your typical dating show. I'm very picky and all women should be. I want to encourage women to fight for what it is you really want, and stand by that. Otherwise you will have a lot of heartbreak or will be left unfulfilled. When you bring a lot to the table, you can't be with someone who is half-stepping

ESSENCE.COM: That's right! How will your show be different from other dating reality shows and do you think you will truly find love?

CHILLI: Anything is possible and I do hope to meet someone fabulous. One thing is for sure, there will be no kissing on the mouth with these guys. That is so gross. That's not a part of getting to know someone. They won't all live in the same house either. It will definitely be a lot of fun. I'm not limiting myself to Black guys. I'm open to all men and all Black women should be. You may miss out on the man of your dreams because you are trying to stick with a brother.

ESSENCE.COM: Now, many of your fans already have the perfect guy picked for you, your ex Usher. Any chance for a reconciliation?

CHILLI: (Laughs.) I don't know. You never know. Only the good Lord knows that. If it's meant for us to stay apart, we will, and if it's meant to be the other way, somehow in the future it may happen. (Why do I feel that she still loves dude?)
