Mary J Blige For "Paper Magazine"


All Hail The Queen!!! *bows*

In this Paper Magazine feature, Mary J. Blige speaks on her role as Nina Simone in an upcoming biopic:
"Nina was different from me in a lot of ways. She was courageous and confident. I'm just growing into that," Blige explains. "But she was like that ever since she was a little girl -- she was never afraid during a period when there was so much racism. She was always bold. I have a lot to draw from -- all the trials and tribulations and battles. But my God, I hope I can do the work and pull it off."

Mary J Blige Breaks Records On "HSN"!


Mary J Blige appeared on the Home Shopping Network (HSN) last week and broke records by selling 50,000 units of her new My Life perfume ($55), produced by Carol's Daughter.
“It’s all a reflection of my personality. Me and a lot of my fans want to smell soft and a little fruity — but not too fruity with bees chasing us around – and also strong and beautiful . . . It’s all there.  After working on the fragrance and wearing it daily, I knew exactly what I wanted it to smell like. I needed to love it and be able to live with it for years. I am not impressed with the hot thing. I’ve named the scent ‘My Life’ because it’s not what we are; it’s what we’ve shared . . . My life is my journey and I’ve always shared it through my music. I can’t wait to share my story with millions of women through HSN…” Blige said before her big debut.
Weeeerrrkkk, Mary!!!

Oh aiiiight Mary!!!

The queen of R&B soul Mary J. Blige has been tapped to play the great Nina Simone in a biopic simply titled "Nina". Simone was a singer, songwriter, pianist, arranger and civil rights activist.
