Okay, Mary J Blige is not exactly a grandmother, but at age 40 she’s getting there. The music legend performed live at the Raggamuffin Music Festival at Parramatta Park in Sydney, Australia over the weekend.
Ciara and Keri Hilson can only hope to possess the kind of energy and gifted presence that Miss Mary brings to the stage every night!
Hell nah I don’t want my grandmother dressing like that! I like her rollers and first lady outfits just fine!
JESUS…NOT a grandmother…and NOT she is 40…and I rememma when she FIRST came out…LAWRD…I’m old right on along with Mary in that case.
Hallelujah ANYWAY…
Dang….she does look good…..
I’m not feeling the haircut but her body looks great
I
Mary. This new generation wish they will look half as good as Mary when they are 40.
Still not wearing her wedding ring
She is 39 about to be 40 SR. And I LOVES ME SOME MARY? What’s the 411 hun, I got it going on. I’m Mary J Blige and you just ain’t running up in me… that’s that chit…..
Brownyes Yonkers Stand UP!!!!
I prefer my granny in her moccasin house shoes and bengay odor. Not like that.
<<Down Unda
@jazi I was thinking the same thing but couldn’t bring myself to diss Mary. Same age, same are growing up, same life. When she sings my life, my life, my life she’s singing to me.
But that is simply a bowl haircut.
Mary had a 40th b day party already. The pics were all on the net a few wks back it was a surprise party.
She looks good still not feeling that bowel cut on her
Today is the 1yr anniv of my grandmothers death RIP
*bowl haircut
RIParadise @Daisy’s GMA!!
No, Mary…
I’ve always thought Mary was a pretty lady. She got a body too. However, I wouldn’t want to imagine my granny nor my mother with tats on their thighs and a mushroom hair do. But to each its own.
On a sidenote: Damn, I got 13 tats, I hope i don’t look too foolish when i hit 40…smdh
i hate the haircut but love me some mary j
MARY IS LOOKN HAWT LOVE THE BODY
Awww Daisy *cyber hug*
And no I don’t want my grandmother looking like that…I want her in her house robe, slippers and baking me cookies
Aint no other singers out there more talented than Mary J. With that said, Mary ain’t never did a thing for me in the looks department even when she was 20. She has always just been okay, but nothing special to me. I applaud her for staying in excellent physical shape, though.
MAry is 40 – she and I have the same birthday, but she’s older.
Squints in my “old age-dom of 34″…Imma need for Mary to lose the “Three Stooges” cut STAT…and is she too old to finally go red or black…or anything other than blonde?
I
just about every song Mary has ever made. Wonder if she still does a no or low carb die? Her body looks AMAZING!!! I know some 20 year olds whose bodies don’t look that good.
she does the same dances she did in the 90s.
u don’t always have to do a dance routine, especially if dancing isn’t ur thing.
Aww Daisy….i know she’s in her heavenly home. I jus had that scare of my life. My granny jus had open heart surgery, and I was a wreck for about 8 days straight, no sleep, I couldn’t eat.
Question…
To ALL of the Ladies who are saying such Glowing things about HER… Would YOU trade how you LQQK (Right Now…) to LQQK just like Mary in THAT PIC 1st PIC ?!!? I MEAN all the way down to The Hair and The UGLY-AZZ Tatts !!!
@BluPhi
Ahhhh I THINK It’s a little Too Late for that Thought Process (Ye Think…)
So I’m the only one who things Mary can’t sing??? I mean she feels it…she is full of emotion, but she be sounded a mess. A few times I’ve been shocked because she stayed on key, and her voice didn’t remind me of nails scratching against chalkboard.
Don’t cha wish yo granny was hot like me, don’t cha……….

Too funny
Sorry, while she looks good for her age. I would NOT want my grandmother to look anything like Mary. JMO.
@ Elove
I know…man I was 20 and thought i was so gon be so damn sexy with these tats…NOw, Im 26 and wonder….WTF did I do to my body…LOL
Mr.BluPhi says:
So I’m the only one who things Mary can’t sing???
If Mary can’t do nothing else she can sang her a** off!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Yeah your alone there
i think mary could sing when she first came out, but now…:blink:
Y’all are right I knew she was born in 71 but her bday was 01/11.
@Sandra
You dead azz wrong for this post title.
I hate that Moe haircut but her body is nice.
Ciara might still look that good at 40 but unless Keri finally hits puberty or buys an azz and starts eating red meat she ain’t gone look any better than she does now.
She looks G double O D Good. She has always had a presence about herself, especially on stage.
The young industry girls can’t touch her and never will.
They wish they didn’t have to run all over the stage.
20 year olds whose bodies don’t look that good.

MR BLU
I have a newphew that I tried to get into m,odeling and now he’s gotten addicte to tattoos and I think it looks crazy! Fortunately as long as he has on a long sleeve shirt all of his are covered up.
s/n I was happy tho when he got my name on his arm tho
Keri finally hits puberty or buys an azz and starts eating red meat she ain’t gone look any better than she does now.

Something aint right with u
@ Danielle …I mean she be feeling it. But most of the time when she’s singing live, I cringe…IDK. Maybe I jus catch the bad performances
@BluPhi
It took SO MUCH DAMN Will Power for me NOT TO GET Tattoos during my college dayz because I THOUGHT it was SO KOOL Also (Real…)
@Bubblin
Y you do all that with you name I thought you was Wonder Woman?
:hugs: @ BUBBLIN SUGA
Why you always leavin meeeeee?
@ BrownSuga
Yeah you can’t see any of mines when i wear long sleeves and pants. I didnt get to crazy. But sometimes I forget, and I will take of my jacket, and my students are like “WHOA you got tattoos”..and Im like DAMMIT, I gotta suffer because of these damn tats.
@ Mr. BluPhi
Yeah maybe… I’ve heard her sound extra raspy at times but it still didn’t sound bad IMO. So do you like Keyshia Cole voice? I love Keyshia but when she get loud singing live I cringe lol.
Yeah your alone there If Mary can’t do nothing else she can sang her a** off!

@Choco
I’m all kinds of wrong. But (some of) y’all e-dore me because of that, not in spite of it.
I too love MJB even though she is rough around the edges. That haircut….naw boo!
@ Candibfly …. Yeah maybe when she first came out…its jus whens she sings live, she be pushing some of those notes…
@candi
Mary sounded like she could REALLY SING because of her background singers (Back Then…) NOW as far as Live singing goes… Paula Abdul wss probably the WORST Female Singer EVER !!!
@ ELove
Hey!! So you don’t have any tats? I have a couple but they can be hidden. Nothing wrong with having them when you get older just as long as they can be covered up at work. Face, neck and hand tats are a no no IMO.
I’m just mad that we’ve come to accep that “granny” is only 40.
I’m mad that Mary’s new music sucks and I want her to go through some shyt, cause this “fine, fine, fine, fine, fine,” Mary ain’t what’s hot.
@ Danielle
I’d rather have each of my toenails peeled back while simultaneously having a sharp object jammed down my pee hole before listening to Keyshia Cole sing live.
Good afternoon Sandra Rose Fam….onto the post…..After seeing the pics of Vivica last week and now seeing these pics I wondered at what age should you stop dressing provocative? I believe there are things you can wear that are more appropriate for age that are still sexy.
I’d have to say that even on Mary’s worst day, she sounds better than Keyshia Cole.
I’m all kinds of wrong. But (some of) y’all e-dore me because of that, not in spite of it.

I think women should get tats if they want them, but they should remember that women change and often men don’t. So, when you’re “Mother Shalamanique” at the church and you’ve got a tat that says, “Marquell” across the crack of your a$$ and you can’t even remember who he is – ya gon’ look the fool.
Also, please stop getting tats across your back and stuff. How do you get dolled up and look sexy and sophisticated? Tats and wedding dressing do go together either.
Whaddup Pretty Baby !!!
Naw, I NEVER got the courage to get any maybe because the ones I wanted were BIG but they would’ve been in a place where traditionally Business WISE they could be covered up… And I don’t have anything against Tatts (Real…) Just UGLY-AZZ TATTS
@Lipstick
I love your new Gravi.
(ashamed that I still don’t know how to wear makeup)
@ YSO
Why you cryin hun???
Choco I felt like Wonder Woman didnt give me a good enough description so I had to add to it!
Mr Blu
Care to share any of those tattoos????
For educational purposes of course
Sandra you can go kick rocks with that title. You should have posted your pic asking that dumb ass question
But any fluckin way…Mary looks great at 40. Her concerts are the bizness and she never ever fails to deliver, If you’ve been then you already know.
@Mr.BluePhi I’m with you! I’ve never like Mary. Too much yelling and not enough singing. Especially live
. Girl STFU and just sing the damn song. Her AND Fantasia do that mess 
I hope this doesn’t mean that tyranosaurus two step she’s being doing for the last 20 years is gonna end up on a workout dvd………
I have one tatt of a black sun on my left calf. I want more though.

Alright I’m back

what we talkin bout? (we still on topic?)
I adore Mare, but the wig is NOT the bizness. I wish I could burn that shyt so bad!
Scary
Sup everybody!I don’t have anything against Mary per se, but If you were subjected music you don’t identify with coupled with ALOT of women who can’t sing but insist on doing so when this chick comes on you would understand my angst with her during my younger years. I know in the hood, in Chicago, you COULD NOT escape Mary or Kels.

@BUBBLIN SUGA
I was crying cause it ain’t no sunshine when you’re gone; there’s only darkness when you’re away.
@iscream cause Marys hubby has 3 kids already and ppl want/feel Jay is ready and has been ready for kids. Mary has always said if she has kids she has them if not she is ok w/that as well. I don’t think folks shld stress Bey to become a mother either let her uterus be great!
Thanks all
@mrblue My grandmother got real sick about 5yrs before she passed but she told us she would be ok fast fwd to last Jan she kept saying she was dying and tired and I fell apart right then and there cause I knew she wldnt be around much longer she lasted abt 2wks in the hospital. She always said shee would live to be 100 and I believed her she was 91.

Forgot to add I think Mary can sing/carry a note/hold a tune BUT I like her cause she sings w/emotions she isn’t an A plus singer to me though. I have heard better and worse. She is still the Queen of r&b and hip hop!!
(takes Lil Deuce from Ace with a little :sideeye:)

@Choco…sorry to hear you are ill…so am I.
It was 70 degrees in Atl all weekend and I was stuck in the house with a cold, and fatigue. Right now, I can’t ever wear my ring because my finger is still sore…and just looking at it usually makes me feel better.

*quickly removes both*
Oh …you weren’t talk bout that…my bad
Someone gettin beat?
I have 5 tats. 2 of which I did myself….
*squeals* i have 5 also awesome. we’re twins
@ Awesome….How the hell you do that?! Are you a tattoo artist?
dimps u can have whatever u want! (as long as it’s less than $50
I asked “why did you get so and so’s name” and he said “I really dont talk to her plus she’s changed her name 3 times so I dont know what to put”
<<<<moscato
long story…….
Why is she not wearing her wedding ring? Are they not still married….I know there was trouble in paradise before.
@Dimpz Kinda……
I think everywhere I’ve been I’ve tatted somebody. The one on my forearm I did on the bus on the way to school when I was in the 8th grade, folks thought I was crazy as hell…..
@ Candi……………… *squeals*
I knew you loved me! *hands you a shirt that says “There’s NOTHING sweeter than Candi”.*
@ Awesome………..
What did you do it with?
@ Ohsopretty yeah Puffy put her on. She made a cd at the Galleria in White Plains which is a mall right between the where they grew up. Same area, same age, pretty much everyone that age who lives around there dances like that. Please don’t do no tootsie roll or none of that booty poppin at an old school party round there. All kinds of eyes will roll and teeth will get sucked, in addition to the full on no shame stares you’ll get.
@Dimpz
Needle, thread, Indian ink, steady hand……..
@ Awesome…………..I impressed but, no way in hell!
(looks @ AWESOME in a whole notha light, scoots closer)
@dimpz
hey babes how u doing???
@corp i am thanks hun
*Takes Duece from Yso so he doesn’t blind Awesome and kill her plans*
@Dimpz It’s actually my favorite one. Me and my guys (mostly fam) all have some variation of the same tat and I did them all. Police started to recognize em and thought we were some new gang or something.
The one I did on my calf I remember vividly because I got suspended from school and went home and did while they were burning David Koresh and nem up.
@ Laker………..I’m good. How’s your mouth today? Who dat in your gravi?
No one on here is young enough for Mary to be their grandma, LOL. Mary is still holding it down after all these years and looks the same though I’m not feeling the bowl cut hair. I wish she would let go of the blonde too.
@ Awesome….Can I see the first one plz?
@dimpz my mouff is good still have to drink the horse pills **them bishes are huge*** and makes me feel alil morning sickness but other than that im good

and her name is ninel conde she is a mexican singer/actress/sexybish
