HAPPY 40TH BIRTHDAY MARY J. BLIGE!

Jan 11 | by Natasha

After spending yesterday in the studio with Maxwell and Alicia Keys, Mary J. Blige is celebrating her big 40th birthday today.

The wife, mom, actress, singer, philanthropist, and entertainer has come a LONG way since her "What's The 4-1-1" days....and we've loved, laughed, cried, and enjoyed every bit of her journey. HAPPY 40TH BIRTHDAY MJB! *tippin' a neckbone and champagne*

For all you tired and

For all you tired and probably looking like you been hit in the face with a sack of bricks, bitches saying Mary looks old, GTFOH. Mary looks very damn good for 40, just because she is not out here like all these other singers her age and younger dressing like they teenagers or early 20s at best doesn't make her look 50. It's called being a Grown Ass Woman and she does it very well. Anybody who thinks Mary looks over 40 is clearly insane!
