I feel like we need to petition Disney+ to add MMC to the streaming service so a whole new Generation and us old schoolers can relive all those moments again. Tiffini was the only cast member I wrote to in hopes that I could get a signed picture or a letter back or something. I wrote from every year 89-94. I wore my combat boots and dresses too! She was beautiful and so very talented and I looked up to her even though we were the same age. She will be missed but her legacy will live on for so much longer
Agreed. I remember rewatching tapes of episodes in the week-end that aired the same week, since they only aired from monday to friday. Lol. I was happy when Tiff and Chasen came back in the last season, but the episodes only aired on fridays.
I suspect the reason that MMC is not on Disney+ is because of the insane costs that would be involved in licensing all the music for streaming. They did multiple songs in each episode and I'm sure none of the licensing in place at the time would cover a streaming release. I could be wrong, of course.
@@tompinkerton8099 it could also be because it would take so long to actually get it on the platform since the show aired so long ago they wouldn't know where the tapes would be and they would have to convert it all to digital and that could take a long time
As a mental health professional, I applaud Tiffini’s family for protecting her for many years and for sharing their experiences. It is so helpful in ending the stigma. And it answered a question I had for so long, “where is Tiffini?”Sending love to her family and may Tiff Rest In Peace.
Thank you and Nancy for finally giving us some insight and allowing us some closure. So many of us have had questions for years but never wanted to intrude on her right to privacy. I appreciate the tasteful way you presented it as well. Thank you ladies! 🥰
I can barely stop crying to type this. I’m so grateful that Nancy allowed us some insight into how Tiffini passed. As a nurse, I see so many who suffer with mental health diseases and I’m saddened Tiffini had to suffer this way.
Losing Tiffany broke my heart, I always wanted to be like her. God gives his strongest warriors, the most difficult battles and his reward is to rest in his presence and the eternal love of all those lives she has touched. all my love from Monterrey Mexico
Your sentiments are kind, but that whole “God not giving anyone more than they can handle” thinking is absolute bullshit. Life is a lot of misery with a fraction beautiful and good sprinkled in. Some people do not know any different, and for those, I’d be more inclined to say, “Ignorance is bliss,” for it truly seems to be the case. Tiffini struggled the majority of her life, and that is no way to live. She deserved better and so much more, but that’s life. God didn’t make it any better or worse.
This was beautiful ladies! I’m so glad Tiffini’s mom felt safe to open up. My grandma was schizophrenic and my boyfriend of 19 years is bipolar so this topic is very near and dear to my heart. Thank you to the both of you and to Nancy!! Love and hugs to you all. Tiffini we love you and miss you, rest easy sweet angel 🙏🏻💔
Thank you for such a lovely tribute! Thank you to her mom, Nancy Hale for letting us know about Tiffini. I think it helps us fans with some closure as to why she stepped away from the spot light. I pray and hope that she was able to confide in you ladies with this. I hope Nancy and the rest of her family sees what an inspiration she was to young girls and teenagers of the 90s! I looked up to her for her amazing vocals, dance moves and especially fashion! I tried copying her look and style many of time (combat boots and dress, ripped jeans and hats)! Tiffini you will be greatly missed and I pray you are at peace now.
My NMMC was the 70's club, the "Forgotten" club as they call it. Some of our Mice had mental health issues as well. I ended up discovering the 90's NMMC club thru THE PARTY and it was just as wonderful as mine. Bless all of you who grew up in the spotlight...you will always be loved. You all mean so much...xo
I grew up watching the 70's club too. As Lisa Whelchel (The Facts of Life) would say years later they were "The Forgotten Mice". What still bothers me to this day is the fact that they were never acknowledged.
So beautiful❤ I always thought Tiffini was the coolest best dressed person ever. You could tell she had a heart of gold. My heart breaks for her mother. Thank you for this. Love and prayers to all those who loved Tiffini❤🙏
Just beautiful … I truly, truly hope that Tiff knew how much we all loved her. I unfortunately never had the pleasure of meeting her, but she became one of my friends through the TV set, someone who’s smile & infectious laugh made me smile every day after school. I still too this day wear ribbons as shoe laces, cause that’s what Tiff did. Hearing stories about her helped my heart & made me adore her even more. As much as I love the party, it definitely wasn’t the same without her. And for her mum to share those words, I can’t even imagine what Tiff would have been going through, and I really do hope that despite everything that she knew her MMC & The Party fans loved & adored her. You will be missed with heavy hearts Tiffini RIP beautiful lady ❤️❤️❤️
I loved this tribute to Tiff. Thank you to Chase for posting this on Facebook. I laughed, I cried, felt nostalgic. Thank you for sharing Nancy’s words and honoring Tiffini. I honestly felt like I was watching two friends of mine talk about Tiffini. Absolutely lovely.
Thank you for sharing I always wondered about tiffini over the years and to hear what she and her family endured breaks my heart rest in peace sweet tiffini
Thanks for sharing the memories, ladies. Just watching this I could feel all of the emotions from you both and I was very touched. And of course thank you Nancy.
Thank you both for sharing the words from Nancy. Her words were so poised and expressive, much like her daughter. So much heartbreak for those that knew and loved Tiffini. Thank you for being a light, ladies! ❤️
Mrs. Hale, thank you for your candor!! Ladies, thank you so much for sharing your stories, from roller skates, to Doc Martin boots!! I recall Mylin and Tiffini doing a sketch and dance to Thomas Dolby's "She Blinded Me With Science" You both displayed such amazing dance talent!! My condolences to Tiffini's family and friends, may she rest in peace.
Great show ladies and a wonderful tribute.. thanks Nancy for shedding light on mental illness and the importance of awareness. Obviously most of us fans didn’t know Tiffini personally but to be able to see her heart through TV or her performances in music just shows what kind of impact she had and shows her character as well. RIP Tiff. ❤️
I began watching the MMC when I was 7 years old and Tiffani quickly became one of my “favorite” cast members. I remember a couple years later when I was 9, watching the Party perform I Found Love on the MMC. I remember trying to do all the dance moves & memorize the lyrics. I loved her outfits & I thought she was the coolest! Years later hearing that the Party & MMC reunited and seeing Tiffani wasn’t there. I thought maybe she decided to leave the music business. Nobody actually mentioned her & it was worrisome to think if something had happened to her in her personal life. Any type of mental illness is a struggle, schizophrenia especially. I have a relative who has it & I have read many memoirs written by those who live with it. Having a support system of family friends & doctors is crucial. I pray Tiffani is at peace now up in heaven ❤️
Such sad news to hear! I was truly hoping that one day we would see you all together again, even it would be just for an interview. May she rest in peace. May God give faith, strength, healing and restoration to all those who mourn her.
"I Found Love" was the only song and video I remember seeing on heavy rotation on the Disney Channel back in 1990/1991. I was 6-7 years old when that song came out and when I found it on TH-cam, floods of memories came to me. It was a great time being a child back in the early 90's. The Disney Channel back then had the best quality programs from "Anne of Green Gables/Avonlea", "Kids Incorporated", "The New Mickey Mouse Club" and I also remember "The Young Musicians Symphony Orchestra".
What a powerful message. I teared up at the end. Tiffini was so special, and it was so brave of her mom to put her diagnosis out there so that others can know what she went through.
Schizophrenia is such a sad thing. I have great sympathy for any family whose loved one has been diagnosed with this mental illness. Thank you both so much for helping to raise awareness on these most delicate issues. R.I.P., Tiffini. 💓
God bless you all!!! I grew up watching you guys, & The Party...I saw y'alls style,& the combat boots! I was the only one at my small town high school in Ohio to wear that same fashion & the combat boots!!! 💜
Thank you for sharing this. For years, there were just internet rumors about mental illness, drug abuse, etc. Thank you for shining the light on mental illnesses and promoting awareness and change.
Hello, Deedee and Mylin, I am so thankful and happy that you both did this for Tiffini. I love hearing your memories of her. I knew something happened to her, something felt in my heart since the MMC days. I had always wondered about her life but I felt like something bad happened.... All of you were so professional about her, never sharing a secret or saying not one bad thing against her, as how it should be. That always reconfirmed to me that something happened. You all are the example of what unconditional love is. I know she must have battled somethng fierce, for schizophrenia isn't kind to anyone. I have extensive experience in helping people inflicted with it, and they have good days and bad. She must have been so frightened. The bad is...profoundly and poignantly heartbreaking on so many levels... and the good days makes you love and have compassion for those inflicted more. Teaches you to embrace the good and help if and where you can, hoping to make something better for them, as it is all important. I've spent my life helping others in mental and behavioral heath. It is how Ijust knew...something happened. It is no one's fault, it's the human condition that we all can succumb to mental illness or any infliction. No shame of it, things happen. I've always loved you guys, the Party and other MMC actors. I STILL listen to The Party's music to this day, and I had seen you at Rocky Point with my friends. You brought people together. And still do. It takes courage for her family to give permission to say what happened to her, and, please give them my love and compassion and comfort of prayers for their loss, and yours of a truly brave and beautiful soul. I will always remember Tiffini as the loving, wise, compassionate, and kind soul, who shared her love with the world. Her love of music, dance and fashion. I always felt her as a kind and fun loving person, a woman humble and wise beyond her years. She always inspired me to do better, to be better. May her light still shine of love, compassion, fashion, music and dance. We were all blessed by her. Your love for her shows. Please keep the donation page up for a while as I won't be able to donate for a few weeks. May she rest in peace, love, and understanding... RIP Tiffini.
I was able to send a donation a few minutes ago (LS). I wish I could send more. Thank you for keeping it open all this time to allow me to participate. My heart is with her family and friends. Many blessings to her family and friends, may Tiffini rest in peace, love and understanding. Much love.
thank u so much for this lovely tribute!! she will be missed by many including myself. will definitely be sharing the gofundme on my social platforms, hopefully i’ll be able to donate soon i wanna do anything i can to spread awareness! happy valentine’s day to the both of u!!
How did I not know about this show?! I loved the MMC! This is the next best thing. And I was very sad to hear about Tiffini. She was one of my favorites.
When I was a teenager back then I loved the party my favorite one was Tiffany hale from Mickey Mouse club to the Party what a sweet girl she knew exactly what she wanted she knew where she is going I love her I miss her too
Feel like I grew up with her. We are both the same age, and loved the group when I was was younger. Had a huge crush on her and thought her personality was one that couldn't be beat! So sorry for your loss Nancy and thank you for sharing g the hard news. You will all be reunited in the future, thank you for the great memories beautiful woman. Love you tiff!!!!!
I’m so glad to hear the truth. I wanted to know the truth to dispel rumors that weren’t correct. She was a fan favorite for sure. Maybe you guys can someday talk about your experiences with her during that time.
Tiffany had hell of a great friendship with you guys. Not a a word was ever spoken on what her actual mental issues where. We all wish we could have friends as close to each other as you guys where.
years went by when I don't think they knew what was going on because they didn't talk to her but then when all these websites came out and people were asking about her they decided to ask her mom / albert and deedee didn't talk for years
@@5656moon the last I heard she was struggling with finding success after everyone else left. But I can't imagine they didn't think something was wrong. They all pretty much grew up with each other.
@@hilarymollyvegas stop attacking me I don't mean any harm / chase has said that years went by when he didn't talk to albert / albert said also that he didn't talk to deedee for a while
I too struggle with mental health. I take medication daily for anxiety and depression. Thank you so much putting this episode honoring Tiffini and bringing light that not only her story with in but so many others. #restinpeaceTiffini ❤️❤️❤️
I was my all time favorite song- glad I got to see the video (even though I didn't have the Disney Channel at that time). I just learned of her passing a few days ago, and it felt like my childhood came crashing down. It was so disheartening to hear of her passing. Ty for having this tribute for Tiffini! ❤
Deedee & Mylin it is so beautiful to see you both🙏 This episode brought me great joy remembering the sweet soul & close friend Tiffini was to me when she moved to LA. We met in acting class and it was an instant knowing that we were soulmates. Lol I’m even pretty sure I introduced her to cafe mocha which was my hangout at the time. So many bowls of lucky charms & mochas sipped😂🥰🤪 So many amazing adventures we had together running around LA and always in her green lil Miata. She always wanted to be in the drivers seat and I always loved the ride🧚♀️ She introduced me to all of you and I’m forever grateful to have shared good laughs with you all. It has been difficult for me to morn her as I have been morning the loss of a close friend since she had her break and subsequent diagnosis. I was able to get news through a mutual friend and years later able to speak to her. It would be the last time. She came to me in thought while watching one of the Matrix movies and I had the urge to figure out how to contact her but I believe she was coming to mind in spirit that her time on earth was soon to transition back to the Creator. It was only a few days later she passed. It’s been close to 30 years since I was blessed to be in friendship with her. My deepest sympathy to both of you ladies for your personal loss and to everyone that had the opportunity to know her, look up to her or want to be like her. She saw us ALL through a beautiful, unconditional love that is her legacy and that is eternal🙏 To her mom, dad, brother & sister, my prayers are with you all. Sending ease & grace💜🙏💜 Love you Tiff to infinity & beyond💫👁🦋
Hello!!! I just came across this podcast! I grew up in Central Florida and our acting class used to be weekly regulars as crowd fillers for MMC.. I met Tiffini many times while we were visiting set.. I am so sad to hear of her passing.. She was so nice every time we saw each other. We had a few conversations over the years that our acting class worked with MMC.. I have met both of you as well but it was many many moons ago when we were kids.. Thanks for the tribute and I wish so much love and peace to Tiffini's family. She really was such a joy and kind person to all!
Tiffani was my mom's favorite and one of my most number 1 faves.My heart and prayers to tiffani up above and her love ones. I love the party n mmc. I use to follow her fashion and copied them ..I remember designing my shorts like hers with lace. Wow Iam shocked about Tiffani mental state,I would never thought it . I thought she did not want to be famous and on TV and wanted a private life . I agree with DeeDee God. I love mylin and deedee love you both
I bought a Party cd off discogs & it said it came w/ a Chase autographed pic as well. To my surprise it was a pamphlet w/ all their autos. Tiffini's says, "Love, Tiffini"
Remembering Tiffini on St. Valentine's Day is special. Thank you for doing this! ❤ She was my favorite. 💔 We celebrate Valentine's Day in honor of St. Valentine, a priest who was martyred. The Catholic Church has "feast days" which celebrate different saints throughout the year. Some of these have become secularized, like St. Valentine, St. Patrick, St. Nicholas. These are worldwide days of commemoration by the Church so we can learn about the saints as our models in the faith. Every day has a feast day which commemorates different saints. It's interesting to learn about the real people and their real histories!
you forgot to mention WHY he was martyred. The story is the Roman Emperor at the time, wanting to keep his troops and citizens more focused on the empire, banned marriage. St. Valentine defied the law and kept on marrying people, landing him in prison under threat of execution. While imprisoned he prayed with the jailers blind daughter and she was healed. Her whole family became believers and she fell in love with him.... they would write back in forth from jail till the end, his letters always signed "Your Valentine"
A beautiful tribute to Tiffany. I was in middle school when I watched MMC & the party. I used to wish I was her or at least had her wardrobe. I remember she had the most stunning smile & flawless makeup. Rest In Peace Tiffany. ❤️ your forever in our hearts.
One of my favorite memories of the MMC is Alex Trebek's cutout clone, that popped up in some comedy sketches, and I guess it appeared with Tiffini Hale and the OTHER Mouseketeers in them! I take it that Tiffini is seeing the REAL Trebek up in heaven, and he's still wreaking vengeance on the MMC for using his cutout double! Thank you, Tiffini and MMC! 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
I would love to see pictures of Tiffini as she got older to see how she had grown over the years. I think that it might help a lot of us her age find camaraderie in her story if we’re struggling as adults as she was.
I've looked everywhere for many years and I can't find any photos of her after The Party/MMC years. Once I found a Facebook profile that looked a lot like her but it was on private so idk. She looked very different but I can't be sure that was hers. She had super short hair
I used to set the VCR to record everyday after school. Right after school Kids Inc came on, followed by MMC. Just a couple of years ago I found a box of old VHS tapes and popped one in and saw a whole tape (commercials included) of those shows, including some concerts of The Party lol. I outgrew Disney around 1993 and replaced it with MTV but I have such fond memories of the 80's/90's Disney channel
I remember Tiffani and dee dee both wearing these crushed velvet baby doll dresses and I made the one the Tiffani wore for a dance in high school with combat boots and all.
It’s so nice to get an insight into what Tiffini was like in real life as a friend and who she was close to on the show. She really was an iconic member of MMC so most of the questions concerning her whereabouts and welfare were genuine and from a place of care for the most part. I understand that if this was revealed 10+ years ago or in the 90s, the reaction may have been very different due to lack of understanding and education around mental illness. I think it only made sense to protect Tiffini for sure. Quite naturally as fans, we certainly already knew something was up. People would talk about her in past tense which was so odd to me and the MMC member’s reactions to hearing her name or questions surrounding her always appeared to be guarded and perhaps triggering. Even though the 2nd half of her life was beyond what anyone could’ve imagined back then as this gorgeous, talented young woman, she’ll always be remembered fondly and her mental health doesn’t diminish any of that at all! She’s in a better place now. RIP Tiffini 🕊
Wow sorry if I have my tears that I found on TH-cam I mean finally I kept looking for Tiffini Hale. When I first watched MMC and The Party both are my favorite when I was young anyway when I found out only 3 of you were on the stage and I was like where is Tiffani went? But I didn’t thinking about it till more recently at Christmas Day well, I was at the hospital after my terrible car accident! It was on December 6th anyway when I found out about her and I was so heartbroken! Big time shocked! And I shared on y Facebook and said my honor for her and loved her so much I can tell that she’s a great person with spiritual! Love her smile and funny! Yep I miss her so much. Sorry for a long comment ….. I want MMC to be on Disney Plus! ❤️❤️ Rest In Peace Tiffini Hale 🫶
I always wondered what happened to her and why she didn’t perform with you guys … how heart breaking . Her mom was brave and did the right thing by sharing her daughters story . We need to talk about mental illness more ! I’m so sorry for all of your losses . I was a huge fan of hers when I was young … me and my friends would do MMC skits and I was always Tiffany . She’s at peace now probably dancing in heaven ❤️
That letter you read was so difficult to hear and yet for years I wondered why she was absent from the reunion and lived a very private life. Thank you for sharing it. I'm grateful for her mom for writing it.
I feel like I finally have closure as to what happened to Tiffini Hale and if she was ok. When I heard of her death, I was sad and shocked to hear about it. Now that more light has been shed on what she was going through in her life, I thank you and her family for allowing us to know what she had been going through. In some sense I feel relief that she is finally at peace and relief for her family from seeing her go through struggles. I remember as a teenager meeting her and the rest of The Party at a local mall in San Antonio. She really did shine and was so kind and warm. My friend had shook her hand and commented how soft her hands were. We were so happy to meet her and the group and star struck! I can finally stop doing research as to where is Tiffini and what happened to her. For years I have been wondering about her and now that I saw this video, I feel some comfort in knowing that Tiffini was always Tiffini she never really left the group or her fans, but instead she allowed herself to recognize and address the fact that she had mental issues that she needed to get help with. Tiffini is not gone from out hearts, our memories, our teenage upbringing or in our future. Tiffini Hale was always be that bright, beautiful and perfect spirit who not only was a singer, a dancer, an actress, an idol to some of us, she was much more, she was a fashion icon, a woman who wasn't afraid to speak up, a woman who cared about her fans and who was still humble, funny and after The Party who tried to continue to live her life outside of the spotlight while going through a mental illness for all these years. She will always be in our lives and now when I see Lucky Charms cereal, I will smile and think of Tiffini as the rainbow that is still shining down for us all to remember and forever to cherish.
Someone should make a documentary on the life of tiffini hale and living with me tal illness for Netflix or Hulu and include the party too...to shed light on mental illness and raise money for it. Kinda like pinky Brewster made a documentary movie. People would love to see a movie on tiffini. Also can the party come back together as a group!! Thank you for sharing your love of Tiffini. She wrote me when I was a teen I really looked up to her growing up and all of the party!! 🙏💚
Hi - The Party reunited (minus Tiffini) for a sold-out show at House of Blues Orlando! Some wonderful people who were in attendance uploaded videos from that performance on TH-cam! Just search “The Party House of Blues Orlando” - there was a very special “I found love” moment that was generously shared as well.
Ohh, I have more thoughts than I can explain.. when I was a teen.. she was the era of Debbie Gibson and Tiffany . I would love walking home faster to get to see the mmc show . Then when The party came out. I was so so so in love with the band and yes very much Tiffani set the stage of short dresses and floral hats. She was not realizing maybe she gave so many now that I read posts from others that was melted by her song and passion of the show. I'm just now 45 so I was in growing up years with everyone . Crushes on girls and boys . I recently just , got back this song by my birthday .. I got a balloon from my boyfriend finance it said it's a party. Days later I looked up after seperated from my boyfriend I heard this song I found love .. and was on you tube searching for why she died. Still going through the tributes. She's definitely back in my sports the teen in me died years ago. I've had this song resound as I drive around and hear other music . I dedicate myself with that song to my new love I found in God. He pointed me back to the world I was happy in teen years. Thanks for the whole thing... !!! Guys were fun dancer. Getting me in the mood to dance again. Rip the whole passing of the group.
I wish we didn’t have to learn “Where did Tiffini go?” this way. 😢 But I can understand how her family wanted to protect her. The public and the media can be very very cruel when it comes to mental health disorders. Her family did a really great job protecting her, as did you guys. May she rest in peace. ❤️🕊
As a grown adult I suffer bipolar/ mental health issues. As well . Beautiful people suffer in silence of their mental health .. it's tough to be alone.
WAIT HOLD ON … I’m having a moment here is this actually Dee Dee & Mylin from the MMC I loved that show I have a lot of it on VHS I’m obsessed. We need a reunion
This is honestly everything we ever needed. Thank you Mylin and DeeDee for this. This provided closure and understanding. Here is my tribute to POP ICON TIFFINI HALE: th-cam.com/video/xh6-nemSFwo/w-d-xo.html
Mental illness is, in my opinion, worse than nearly anything physical, and I suffer with both mental illness and chronic autoimmune diseases. It’s especially bad if you are like me, and you are painfully self-aware to the point that I am fully present and sometimes, it’s as though I am looking at myself from the outside. To know and see myself for just exactly who and how I am, and to know that I will struggle with my illnesses for the rest of my life- it is so overwhelming. I realize it isn’t mentioned in this video, but I get the impression that Tiffini took her own life. I’d just like to add my sentiments- 1. Ladies, you are absolutely correct: there is *NO SHAME* in having or loving someone with mental illness. It is so difficult and it is so hurtful. 2. Likewise, *IF* Tiffini could no longer endure the suffering in this realm, there’s also *NO SHAME* in suicide. It’s horribly sad and heartbreaking to think of, but I have never viewed it as a weakness, being a “coward,” and certainly not “taking the easy way out.” It must take a lot of strength and courage, in fact. I am not condoning or minimizing the act of ending one’s own life. Honest to goodness, I am not. I’m only speaking from my tender, empathetic heart and though I never had the honor of meeting Tiffini, I certainly feel a great deal of love, respect, and compassion for her, her loved ones, friends, former colleagues, and her fans. It’s been over 30 years since she first came on our TV screens, and I believe everyone loved Miss Tiffini Hale. 🌸
Tiffini suffered cardiac arrest. While there are many things that could have caused it, studies show schizophrenia itself, possibly due to lifestyle changes or medication, is a high cause of heart disease and people suffering cardiac arrest.
I auditioned for MMC too in Tampa,Fl. Zippity Doo Dah Zippity day what's one of the three to five songs and dance numbers we were asked to do. I'm sorry to say, but those auditions were rigged. I clearly remember that from that time period. It's possible she could have found that out with all the alcohol and drug abuse she suffered. Drug and alcohol addiction comes from somewhere. It saddens me because she wasn't able to go within herself to do the healing she most certainly needed to do, for herself. I do remember, after I was told I didn't make the third audition in Orlando and Final. So, when the party came back to the Tampa Bay Area Pinellas County area my mother and I drove over to where they were so I can meet all of them. Oh my god there it was ridiculous. I don't know who it was that was controlling all of you but you were barely able to interact with your fans that you all most clearly and most certainly wanted to do I could go on and on but I'm stopping! My heart is with her family and friends. Her memory will live on and will be a blessing!
IT'S UNFAIR AND MISS TIFFINI HALE NEVER MAKES A COMEBACK FROM 1994 TO 2021 AND SHE GAVE UP AND GOT SCHITZOFRANEIA UP TO 1999 AND FROM 2000 TO HER DEATH ON CHRISTMAS SATURDAY 2021 AND SHE'S TOO RECLUSIVE AND UNRESPONSIVE WITHOUT A GRUDGE AND IN 2020-2021 WE WANTED TO SEE HERSELF TO COMEBACK ON TV AND EVERYTHING.
Those photos were not tiffany they were mi lin, but I guess you know that already its very annoying I really loved tiffany and remember her and her athleticism.
I feel like we need to petition Disney+ to add MMC to the streaming service so a whole new Generation and us old schoolers can relive all those moments again. Tiffini was the only cast member I wrote to in hopes that I could get a signed picture or a letter back or something. I wrote from every year 89-94. I wore my combat boots and dresses too! She was beautiful and so very talented and I looked up to her even though we were the same age. She will be missed but her legacy will live on for so much longer
Agreed. I remember rewatching tapes of episodes in the week-end that aired the same week, since they only aired from monday to friday. Lol. I was happy when Tiff and Chasen came back in the last season, but the episodes only aired on fridays.
Did she write back? You left that out.
@@dickiegreenleaf750 Sadly no, she didn’t.
I suspect the reason that MMC is not on Disney+ is because of the insane costs that would be involved in licensing all the music for streaming. They did multiple songs in each episode and I'm sure none of the licensing in place at the time would cover a streaming release. I could be wrong, of course.
@@tompinkerton8099 it could also be because it would take so long to actually get it on the platform since the show aired so long ago they wouldn't know where the tapes would be and they would have to convert it all to digital and that could take a long time
As a mental health professional, I applaud Tiffini’s family for protecting her for many years and for sharing their experiences. It is so helpful in ending the stigma. And it answered a question I had for so long, “where is Tiffini?”Sending love to her family and may Tiff Rest In Peace.
Thank you and Nancy for finally giving us some insight and allowing us some closure. So many of us have had questions for years but never wanted to intrude on her right to privacy. I appreciate the tasteful way you presented it as well. Thank you ladies! 🥰
I can barely stop crying to type this. I’m so grateful that Nancy allowed us some insight into how Tiffini passed. As a nurse, I see so many who suffer with mental health diseases and I’m saddened Tiffini had to suffer this way.
Baby doll dresses and combat boots define my early teen years! Add the flower hat and I was set. Got it from Tiffini!
Losing Tiffany broke my heart, I always wanted to be like her. God gives his strongest warriors, the most difficult battles and his reward is to rest in his presence and the eternal love of all those lives she has touched. all my love from Monterrey Mexico
Your sentiments are kind, but that whole “God not giving anyone more than they can handle” thinking is absolute bullshit. Life is a lot of misery with a fraction beautiful and good sprinkled in.
Some people do not know any different, and for those, I’d be more inclined to say, “Ignorance is bliss,” for it truly seems to be the case. Tiffini struggled the majority of her life, and that is no way to live. She deserved better and so much more, but that’s life. God didn’t make it any better or worse.
Waited so long to get some ‘closer’ on Tiffini. You’re right it’s NOTHING to be ashamed of. This topic needs to be talked about SO MUCH MORE. 😓🥺😭😭😭😭
2:30 that sentence made me want to scream and cry... so heart wrenching to hear that after all these years of missing her
Hearing Nancy's words broke my heart. It breaks my heart that anyone struggles with these challenges.
This was beautiful ladies! I’m so glad Tiffini’s mom felt safe to open up. My grandma was schizophrenic and my boyfriend of 19 years is bipolar so this topic is very near and dear to my heart. Thank you to the both of you and to Nancy!! Love and hugs to you all. Tiffini we love you and miss you, rest easy sweet angel 🙏🏻💔
What a lovely tribute to Tiffini! May God continue to bless Nancy with the strength she was able to show by her words. We all love you, Tiffini!!
What a lovely way to honor her. Thank you for sharing Nancy’s letter. Much love! ❤️
That was most beautiful thing made me cry you too are great people ❤️ and special
Thank you so much for this beautiful episode. God bless both of you, and Tiffini’s mother and family, as well. ❤️🙏🏼❤️
Thank you for such a lovely tribute! Thank you to her mom, Nancy Hale for letting us know about Tiffini. I think it helps us fans with some closure as to why she stepped away from the spot light. I pray and hope that she was able to confide in you ladies with this. I hope Nancy and the rest of her family sees what an inspiration she was to young girls and teenagers of the 90s! I looked up to her for her amazing vocals, dance moves and especially fashion! I tried copying her look and style many of time (combat boots and dress, ripped jeans and hats)! Tiffini you will be greatly missed and I pray you are at peace now.
My NMMC was the 70's club, the "Forgotten" club as they call it. Some of our Mice had mental health issues as well. I ended up discovering the 90's NMMC club thru THE PARTY and it was just as wonderful as mine. Bless all of you who grew up in the spotlight...you will always be loved. You all mean so much...xo
I grew up watching the 70's club too. As Lisa Whelchel (The Facts of Life) would say years later they were "The Forgotten Mice". What still bothers me to this day is the fact that they were never acknowledged.
So beautiful❤ I always thought Tiffini was the coolest best dressed person ever. You could tell she had a heart of gold. My heart breaks for her mother. Thank you for this. Love and prayers to all those who loved Tiffini❤🙏
Wow. What a powerful and brave thing for Tiffini’s mom to share. We definitely need to shed more light on mental illness. Thank you ladies ❤️
Just beautiful … I truly, truly hope that Tiff knew how much we all loved her. I unfortunately never had the pleasure of meeting her, but she became one of my friends through the TV set, someone who’s smile & infectious laugh made me smile every day after school. I still too this day wear ribbons as shoe laces, cause that’s what Tiff did. Hearing stories about her helped my heart & made me adore her even more. As much as I love the party, it definitely wasn’t the same without her. And for her mum to share those words, I can’t even imagine what Tiff would have been going through, and I really do hope that despite everything that she knew her MMC & The Party fans loved & adored her. You will be missed with heavy hearts Tiffini RIP beautiful lady ❤️❤️❤️
It’s “All About Love,” and this tribute couldn’t have come at a better time. Thank you so much for sharing with us. Love you both and love Tiffini. ❤️
I loved this tribute to Tiff. Thank you to Chase for posting this on Facebook. I laughed, I cried, felt nostalgic. Thank you for sharing Nancy’s words and honoring Tiffini. I honestly felt like I was watching two friends of mine talk about Tiffini. Absolutely lovely.
Wonderful tribute. Hi DeeDee. It was great reminiscing about Tiff, the MMC and you time doing warm-up for the show. Rest In Heaven.
Thank you for sharing I always wondered about tiffini over the years and to hear what she and her family endured breaks my heart rest in peace sweet tiffini
Thanks for sharing the memories, ladies. Just watching this I could feel all of the emotions from you both and I was very touched. And of course thank you Nancy.
Thank you both for sharing the words from Nancy. Her words were so poised and expressive, much like her daughter. So much heartbreak for those that knew and loved Tiffini. Thank you for being a light, ladies! ❤️
Mrs. Hale, thank you for your candor!! Ladies, thank you so much for sharing your stories, from roller skates, to Doc Martin boots!! I recall Mylin and Tiffini doing a sketch and dance to Thomas Dolby's "She Blinded Me With Science" You both displayed such amazing dance talent!! My condolences to Tiffini's family and friends, may she rest in peace.
Just ✨💖✨🙏🏼✨ Thank you so much for sharing ladies. Tiffani was truly talented and loved...
Tony Lucca’s post about Tiffini wearing Beautiful perfume was so sweet and touching. 💙
Great show ladies and a wonderful tribute.. thanks Nancy for shedding light on mental illness and the importance of awareness. Obviously most of us fans didn’t know Tiffini personally but to be able to see her heart through TV or her performances in music just shows what kind of impact she had and shows her character as well. RIP Tiff. ❤️
The words from Nancy H. has so much love and knowledge. Rest In Peace Tiffini.
I began watching the MMC when I was 7 years old and Tiffani quickly became one of my “favorite” cast members. I remember a couple years later when I was 9, watching the Party perform I Found Love on the MMC. I remember trying to do all the dance moves & memorize the lyrics. I loved her outfits & I thought she was the coolest!
Years later hearing that the Party & MMC reunited and seeing Tiffani wasn’t there. I thought maybe she decided to leave the music business. Nobody actually mentioned her & it was worrisome to think if something had happened to her in her personal life.
Any type of mental illness is a struggle, schizophrenia especially. I have a relative who has it & I have read many memoirs written by those who live with it. Having a support system of family friends & doctors is crucial.
I pray Tiffani is at peace now up in heaven ❤️
Lol I was a couple of years older than you but I used to dance around while watching the concerts and try to memorize the dances and songs too 😂
Such sad news to hear! I was truly hoping that one day we would see you all together again, even it would be just for an interview. May she rest in peace. May God give faith, strength, healing and restoration to all those who mourn her.
"I Found Love" was the only song and video I remember seeing on heavy rotation on the Disney Channel back in 1990/1991. I was 6-7 years old when that song came out and when I found it on TH-cam, floods of memories came to me. It was a great time being a child back in the early 90's. The Disney Channel back then had the best quality programs from "Anne of Green Gables/Avonlea", "Kids Incorporated", "The New Mickey Mouse Club" and I also remember "The Young Musicians Symphony Orchestra".
What a powerful message. I teared up at the end. Tiffini was so special, and it was so brave of her mom to put her diagnosis out there so that others can know what she went through.
Thank you both for sharing. This is a wonderful tribute.
Schizophrenia is such a sad thing. I have great sympathy for any family whose loved one has been diagnosed with this mental illness. Thank you both so much for helping to raise awareness on these most delicate issues. R.I.P., Tiffini. 💓
God bless you all!!! I grew up watching you guys, & The Party...I saw y'alls style,& the combat boots! I was the only one at my small town high school in Ohio to wear that same fashion & the combat boots!!! 💜
Thank you for sharing this. For years, there were just internet rumors about mental illness, drug abuse, etc. Thank you for shining the light on mental illnesses and promoting awareness and change.
Hello, Deedee and Mylin, I am so thankful and happy that you both did this for Tiffini. I love hearing your memories of her. I knew something happened to her, something felt in my heart since the MMC days. I had always wondered about her life but I felt like something bad happened.... All of you were so professional about her, never sharing a secret or saying not one bad thing against her, as how it should be. That always reconfirmed to me that something happened. You all are the example of what unconditional love is. I know she must have battled somethng fierce, for schizophrenia isn't kind to anyone. I have extensive experience in helping people inflicted with it, and they have good days and bad. She must have been so frightened. The bad is...profoundly and poignantly heartbreaking on so many levels... and the good days makes you love and have compassion for those inflicted more. Teaches you to embrace the good and help if and where you can, hoping to make something better for them, as it is all important. I've spent my life helping others in mental and behavioral heath. It is how Ijust knew...something happened. It is no one's fault, it's the human condition that we all can succumb to mental illness or any infliction. No shame of it, things happen. I've always loved you guys, the Party and other MMC actors. I STILL listen to The Party's music to this day, and I had seen you at Rocky Point with my friends. You brought people together. And still do. It takes courage for her family to give permission to say what happened to her, and, please give them my love and compassion and comfort of prayers for their loss, and yours of a truly brave and beautiful soul. I will always remember Tiffini as the loving, wise, compassionate, and kind soul, who shared her love with the world. Her love of music, dance and fashion. I always felt her as a kind and fun loving person, a woman humble and wise beyond her years. She always inspired me to do better, to be better. May her light still shine of love, compassion, fashion, music and dance. We were all blessed by her. Your love for her shows. Please keep the donation page up for a while as I won't be able to donate for a few weeks. May she rest in peace, love, and understanding... RIP Tiffini.
What you wrote is beautiful 💔
I was able to send a donation a few minutes ago (LS). I wish I could send more. Thank you for keeping it open all this time to allow me to participate. My heart is with her family and friends. Many blessings to her family and friends, may Tiffini rest in peace, love and understanding. Much love.
thank u so much for this lovely tribute!! she will be missed by many including myself. will definitely be sharing the gofundme on my social platforms, hopefully i’ll be able to donate soon i wanna do anything i can to spread awareness! happy valentine’s day to the both of u!!
How did I not know about this show?! I loved the MMC! This is the next best thing. And I was very sad to hear about Tiffini. She was one of my favorites.
When I was a teenager back then I loved the party my favorite one was Tiffany hale from Mickey Mouse club to the Party what a sweet girl she knew exactly what she wanted she knew where she is going I love her I miss her too
Feel like I grew up with her. We are both the same age, and loved the group when I was was younger. Had a huge crush on her and thought her personality was one that couldn't be beat! So sorry for your loss Nancy and thank you for sharing g the hard news. You will all be reunited in the future, thank you for the great memories beautiful woman. Love you tiff!!!!!
Thank you for this lovely and personal tribute. I expecially thank you for sharing her diagnosis with compassion and respect.
I’m so glad to hear the truth. I wanted to know the truth to dispel rumors that weren’t correct. She was a fan favorite for sure. Maybe you guys can someday talk about your experiences with her during that time.
What a beautiful tribute for Tiffini.
Tiffany had hell of a great friendship with you guys. Not a a word was ever spoken on what her actual mental issues where. We all wish we could have friends as close to each other as you guys where.
years went by when I don't think they knew what was going on because they didn't talk to her but then when all these websites came out and people were asking about her they decided to ask her mom / albert and deedee didn't talk for years
@@5656moon the last I heard she was struggling with finding success after everyone else left. But I can't imagine they didn't think something was wrong. They all pretty much grew up with each other.
@@hilarymollyvegas stop attacking me I don't mean any harm / chase has said that years went by when he didn't talk to albert / albert said also that he didn't talk to deedee for a while
Thank you for sharing this-what a lovely tribute to a beautiful soul. #RIPTiffini
I too struggle with mental health. I take medication daily for anxiety and depression. Thank you so much putting this episode honoring Tiffini and bringing light that not only her story with in but so many others. #restinpeaceTiffini ❤️❤️❤️
I was my all time favorite song- glad I got to see the video (even though I didn't have the Disney Channel at that time). I just learned of her passing a few days ago, and it felt like my childhood came crashing down. It was so disheartening to hear of her passing. Ty for having this tribute for Tiffini! ❤
Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful tribute to Tiffany. ❤️
Deedee & Mylin it is so beautiful to see you both🙏 This episode brought me great joy remembering the sweet soul & close friend Tiffini was to me when she moved to LA. We met in acting class and it was an instant knowing that we were soulmates. Lol I’m even pretty sure I introduced her to cafe mocha which was my hangout at the time. So many bowls of lucky charms & mochas sipped😂🥰🤪 So many amazing adventures we had together running around LA and always in her green lil Miata. She always wanted to be in the drivers seat and I always loved the ride🧚♀️ She introduced me to all of you and I’m forever grateful to have shared good laughs with you all. It has been difficult for me to morn her as I have been morning the loss of a close friend since she had her break and subsequent diagnosis. I was able to get news through a mutual friend and years later able to speak to her. It would be the last time. She came to me in thought while watching one of the Matrix movies and I had the urge to figure out how to contact her but I believe she was coming to mind in spirit that her time on earth was soon to transition back to the Creator. It was only a few days later she passed. It’s been close to 30 years since I was blessed to be in friendship with her. My deepest sympathy to both of you ladies for your personal loss and to everyone that had the opportunity to know her, look up to her or want to be like her. She saw us ALL through a beautiful, unconditional love that is her legacy and that is eternal🙏 To her mom, dad, brother & sister, my prayers are with you all. Sending ease & grace💜🙏💜 Love you Tiff to infinity & beyond💫👁🦋
Beautiful ❤️🙏🏿
Hello!!! I just came across this podcast! I grew up in Central Florida and our acting class used to be weekly regulars as crowd fillers for MMC.. I met Tiffini many times while we were visiting set.. I am so sad to hear of her passing.. She was so nice every time we saw each other. We had a few conversations over the years that our acting class worked with MMC.. I have met both of you as well but it was many many moons ago when we were kids.. Thanks for the tribute and I wish so much love and peace to Tiffini's family. She really was such a joy and kind person to all!
Tiffani was my mom's favorite and one of my most number 1 faves.My heart and prayers to tiffani up above and her love ones. I love the party n mmc. I use to follow her fashion and copied them ..I remember designing my shorts like hers with lace. Wow Iam shocked about Tiffani mental state,I would never thought it . I thought she did not want to be famous and on TV and wanted a private life . I agree with DeeDee God. I love mylin and deedee love you both
Love your show, this was great.
Thank you so much for this tribute to Tiffini and sharing with us what she was dealing with.
Miss you Tiffini, you were my icon back in the 90's, you touched so many lives! 🥾💓
I bought a Party cd off discogs & it said it came w/ a Chase autographed pic as well. To my surprise it was a pamphlet w/ all their autos. Tiffini's says, "Love, Tiffini"
This. Was. Beautiful.
Remembering Tiffini on St. Valentine's Day is special. Thank you for doing this! ❤ She was my favorite. 💔
We celebrate Valentine's Day in honor of St. Valentine, a priest who was martyred. The Catholic Church has "feast days" which celebrate different saints throughout the year. Some of these have become secularized, like St. Valentine, St. Patrick, St. Nicholas. These are worldwide days of commemoration by the Church so we can learn about the saints as our models in the faith. Every day has a feast day which commemorates different saints. It's interesting to learn about the real people and their real histories!
you forgot to mention WHY he was martyred.
The story is the Roman Emperor at the time, wanting to keep his troops and citizens more focused on the empire, banned marriage. St. Valentine defied the law and kept on marrying people, landing him in prison under threat of execution. While imprisoned he prayed with the jailers blind daughter and she was healed. Her whole family became believers and she fell in love with him.... they would write back in forth from jail till the end, his letters always signed "Your Valentine"
A beautiful tribute to Tiffany. I was in middle school when I watched MMC & the party. I used to wish I was her or at least had her wardrobe. I remember she had the most stunning smile & flawless makeup. Rest In Peace Tiffany. ❤️ your forever in our hearts.
One of my favorite memories of the MMC
is Alex Trebek's cutout clone, that popped
up in some comedy sketches, and I guess
it appeared with Tiffini Hale and the OTHER
Mouseketeers in them! I take it that Tiffini
is seeing the REAL Trebek up in heaven,
and he's still wreaking vengeance on the
MMC for using his cutout double! Thank
you, Tiffini and MMC! 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
I would love to see pictures of Tiffini as she got older to see how she had grown over the years. I think that it might help a lot of us her age find camaraderie in her story if we’re struggling as adults as she was.
I've looked everywhere for many years and I can't find any photos of her after The Party/MMC years. Once I found a Facebook profile that looked a lot like her but it was on private so idk. She looked very different but I can't be sure that was hers. She had super short hair
Thanks for this. She was the ultimate babe back then when I watched.
I used to set the VCR to record everyday after school. Right after school Kids Inc came on, followed by MMC. Just a couple of years ago I found a box of old VHS tapes and popped one in and saw a whole tape (commercials included) of those shows, including some concerts of The Party lol. I outgrew Disney around 1993 and replaced it with MTV but I have such fond memories of the 80's/90's Disney channel
I 💜 Party! I ❣️ Chicago Too! I Remember You Two From Mickey Mouse Club!Tiffini Was So Talented& Lovely!🥰🙆🤣🤗🤙🎶💕💜
I remember Tiffani and dee dee both wearing these crushed velvet baby doll dresses and I made the one the Tiffani wore for a dance in high school with combat boots and all.
It’s so nice to get an insight into what Tiffini was like in real life as a friend and who she was close to on the show. She really was an iconic member of MMC so most of the questions concerning her whereabouts and welfare were genuine and from a place of care for the most part. I understand that if this was revealed 10+ years ago or in the 90s, the reaction may have been very different due to lack of understanding and education around mental illness. I think it only made sense to protect Tiffini for sure.
Quite naturally as fans, we certainly already knew something was up. People would talk about her in past tense which was so odd to me and the MMC member’s reactions to hearing her name or questions surrounding her always appeared to be guarded and perhaps triggering.
Even though the 2nd half of her life was beyond what anyone could’ve imagined back then as this gorgeous, talented young woman, she’ll always be remembered fondly and her mental health doesn’t diminish any of that at all! She’s in a better place now. RIP Tiffini 🕊
That was such a beautiful tribute rest in Love Tiffani!
DeeDee I wrote you fan mail way back in the day haha. So glad you're doing great and my heart breaks for tiffini's family and loved ones.
Wow sorry if I have my tears that I found on TH-cam I mean finally I kept looking for Tiffini Hale. When I first watched MMC and The Party both are my favorite when I was young anyway when I found out only 3 of you were on the stage and I was like where is Tiffani went? But I didn’t thinking about it till more recently at Christmas Day well, I was at the hospital after my terrible car accident! It was on December 6th anyway when I found out about her and I was so heartbroken! Big time shocked! And I shared on y Facebook and said my honor for her and loved her so much I can tell that she’s a great person with spiritual! Love her smile and funny! Yep I miss her so much. Sorry for a long comment ….. I want MMC to be on Disney Plus! ❤️❤️ Rest In Peace Tiffini Hale 🫶
I always wondered what happened to her and why she didn’t perform with you guys … how heart breaking . Her mom was brave and did the right thing by sharing her daughters story . We need to talk about mental illness more ! I’m so sorry for all of your losses . I was a huge fan of hers when I was young … me and my friends would do MMC skits and I was always Tiffany . She’s at peace now probably dancing in heaven ❤️
That letter you read was so difficult to hear and yet for years I wondered why she was absent from the reunion and lived a very private life. Thank you for sharing it. I'm grateful for her mom for writing it.
❤️
I feel like I finally have closure as to what happened to Tiffini Hale and if she was ok. When I heard of her death, I was sad and shocked to hear about it. Now that more light has been shed on what she was going through in her life, I thank you and her family for allowing us to know what she had been going through. In some sense I feel relief that she is finally at peace and relief for her family from seeing her go through struggles. I remember as a teenager meeting her and the rest of The Party at a local mall in San Antonio. She really did shine and was so kind and warm. My friend had shook her hand and commented how soft her hands were. We were so happy to meet her and the group and star struck! I can finally stop doing research as to where is Tiffini and what happened to her. For years I have been wondering about her and now that I saw this video, I feel some comfort in knowing that Tiffini was always Tiffini she never really left the group or her fans, but instead she allowed herself to recognize and address the fact that she had mental issues that she needed to get help with. Tiffini is not gone from out hearts, our memories, our teenage upbringing or in our future. Tiffini Hale was always be that bright, beautiful and perfect spirit who not only was a singer, a dancer, an actress, an idol to some of us, she was much more, she was a fashion icon, a woman who wasn't afraid to speak up, a woman who cared about her fans and who was still humble, funny and after The Party who tried to continue to live her life outside of the spotlight while going through a mental illness for all these years. She will always be in our lives and now when I see Lucky Charms cereal, I will smile and think of Tiffini as the rainbow that is still shining down for us all to remember and forever to cherish.
Someone should make a documentary on the life of tiffini hale and living with me tal illness for Netflix or Hulu and include the party too...to shed light on mental illness and raise money for it. Kinda like pinky Brewster made a documentary movie. People would love to see a movie on tiffini. Also can the party come back together as a group!! Thank you for sharing your love of Tiffini. She wrote me when I was a teen I really looked up to her growing up and all of the party!! 🙏💚
Hi - The Party reunited (minus Tiffini) for a sold-out show at House of Blues Orlando! Some wonderful people who were in attendance uploaded videos from that performance on TH-cam! Just search “The Party House of Blues Orlando” - there was a very special “I found love” moment that was generously shared as well.
Ohh, I have more thoughts than I can explain.. when I was a teen.. she was the era of Debbie Gibson and Tiffany . I would love walking home faster to get to see the mmc show . Then when The party came out. I was so so so in love with the band and yes very much Tiffani set the stage of short dresses and floral hats. She was not realizing maybe she gave so many now that I read posts from others that was melted by her song and passion of the show. I'm just now 45 so I was in growing up years with everyone . Crushes on girls and boys . I recently just , got back this song by my birthday .. I got a balloon from my boyfriend finance it said it's a party. Days later I looked up after seperated from my boyfriend I heard this song I found love .. and was on you tube searching for why she died. Still going through the tributes. She's definitely back in my sports the teen in me died years ago. I've had this song resound as I drive around and hear other music . I dedicate myself with that song to my new love I found in God. He pointed me back to the world I was happy in teen years. Thanks for the whole thing... !!! Guys were fun dancer. Getting me in the mood to dance again. Rip the whole passing of the group.
Rest In Peace tiffani hale . I knew it was Chicago
I wish we didn’t have to learn “Where did Tiffini go?” this way. 😢 But I can understand how her family wanted to protect her. The public and the media can be very very cruel when it comes to mental health disorders. Her family did a really great job protecting her, as did you guys. May she rest in peace. ❤️🕊
Awweeeeeee❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
❤ Tiffini
As a grown adult I suffer bipolar/ mental health issues. As well . Beautiful people suffer in silence of their mental health .. it's tough to be alone.
❤
There is a Mmc vedio with Jennifer on Mmc singing Wind Beneath my Wing and Tiffani dancing below her on you tube ...from episode of Mmc
R.I.P. Tiffani Hale. You're performing for God now. ❤️
I always wondered what happened to her after the show ended. My brother has bipolar mania. It's tough.
WAIT HOLD ON … I’m having a moment here is this actually Dee Dee & Mylin from the MMC I loved that show I have a lot of it on VHS I’m obsessed. We need a reunion
Cafe Mocha!!!!
This is honestly everything we ever needed. Thank you Mylin and DeeDee for this. This provided closure and understanding. Here is my tribute to POP ICON TIFFINI HALE: th-cam.com/video/xh6-nemSFwo/w-d-xo.html
Mental illness is, in my opinion, worse than nearly anything physical, and I suffer with both mental illness and chronic autoimmune diseases. It’s especially bad if you are like me, and you are painfully self-aware to the point that I am fully present and sometimes, it’s as though I am looking at myself from the outside. To know and see myself for just exactly who and how I am, and to know that I will struggle with my illnesses for the rest of my life- it is so overwhelming.
I realize it isn’t mentioned in this video, but I get the impression that Tiffini took her own life. I’d just like to add my sentiments-
1. Ladies, you are absolutely correct: there is *NO SHAME* in having or loving someone with mental illness. It is so difficult and it is so hurtful.
2. Likewise, *IF* Tiffini could no longer endure the suffering in this realm, there’s also *NO SHAME* in suicide. It’s horribly sad and heartbreaking to think of, but I have never viewed it as a weakness, being a “coward,” and certainly not “taking the easy way out.” It must take a lot of strength and courage, in fact.
I am not condoning or minimizing the act of ending one’s own life. Honest to goodness, I am not. I’m only speaking from my tender, empathetic heart and though I never had the honor of meeting Tiffini, I certainly feel a great deal of love, respect, and compassion for her, her loved ones, friends, former colleagues, and her fans. It’s been over 30 years since she first came on our TV screens, and I believe everyone loved Miss Tiffini Hale. 🌸
Tiffini suffered cardiac arrest. While there are many things that could have caused it, studies show schizophrenia itself, possibly due to lifestyle changes or medication, is a high cause of heart disease and people suffering cardiac arrest.
life is to precious and short god pliss
Two minutes in & I am already a crying mess 😢
I auditioned for MMC too in Tampa,Fl. Zippity Doo Dah Zippity day what's one of the three to five songs and dance numbers we were asked to do.
I'm sorry to say, but those auditions were rigged.
I clearly remember that from that time period.
It's possible she could have found that out with all the alcohol and drug abuse she suffered. Drug and alcohol addiction comes from somewhere.
It saddens me because she wasn't able to go within herself to do the healing she most certainly needed to do, for herself.
I do remember,
after I was told I didn't make the third audition in Orlando and Final.
So, when the party came back to the Tampa Bay Area Pinellas County area my mother and I drove over to where they were so I can meet all of them.
Oh my god there it was ridiculous.
I don't know who it was that was controlling all of you but you were barely able to interact with your fans that you all most clearly and most certainly wanted to do I could go on and on but I'm stopping!
My heart is with her family and friends.
Her memory will live on and will be a blessing!
IT'S UNFAIR AND MISS TIFFINI HALE NEVER MAKES A COMEBACK FROM 1994 TO 2021 AND SHE GAVE UP AND GOT SCHITZOFRANEIA UP TO 1999 AND FROM 2000 TO HER DEATH ON CHRISTMAS SATURDAY 2021 AND SHE'S TOO RECLUSIVE AND UNRESPONSIVE WITHOUT A GRUDGE AND IN 2020-2021 WE WANTED TO SEE HERSELF TO COMEBACK ON TV AND EVERYTHING.
Those photos were not tiffany they were mi lin, but I guess you know that already its very annoying I really loved tiffany and remember her and her athleticism.
Christina, to clarify, every picture shown with Tiffini is Tiffini.
damn, i didnt know she passed away I just thought she didn't want to be in the band again... god speed
