The Tyrese Side-Eye & 6 Other Moments From TGTs TV Performance [GIFs]

R&B singers Tyrese, Ginuwine and Tank have pulled an LSG (or a BBD depending on how technical you want to be) and started a supergroup called TGT. To promote their new single “I Need”  from their upcoming “3 Kings” album, the trio appeared on a local television show in NY to perform the song live.

Evidently, their call time was so early that Ginuwine didn’t have time to shave or have his morning cup of coffee and his sleepy appearance sparked rumors that he was on a controlled substance of some sort. Mr. Lumpkin has a rep for being one of the most clean cut gents in R&B (did you see his baby hair in ’96?) so we weren’t too sure about this and he addressed the rumors on his twitter page:

That didn’t stop him from having some fun with the whole situation though, offering up some good natured laughs about the whole thing.

So we captured some of the highlights in GIF form for your repeated viewing pleasure:

1. Tyrese drops his mic and gives Ginuwine a side-eye that would make Michonne jealous.

2. If we could read Tyrese’s mind at this moment he is thinking…

3. The gents seem to still be working out the kinks because at times we’re not sure they are singing the same song. Tank thinks he is in “Ray.”

4. Tyrese’s left cheek (made famous in “Transformers”) started to get as sleepy as Ginuwine so he had to get up off the stool and walk it off…

5. Ginuwine gives an eye-opening rendition of this song that even he had to make fun of:

6. But don’t get it twisted. Ginuwine may not be that clean this morning but he is CLEAN.

7.  While Ginuwine rubs his 5 o’clock shadow on the host Tyrese does a gut check in his own special way…#Manology.

TGT’s Atlantic debut album, “3 Kings,” will arrive at retail on Aug. 20th.
