About how fierce, tough and unapologetically herself she was... she taught me what it was to be a hard working woman...she, like the other women I was fortunate enough to be raised by taught me to be independent and unafraid of life and what it would bring,” the 50-year-old wrote. As the post continued, the World of Dance judge shared some of her Titi’s valued lessons.
