Mary J. Blige showed her generosity whilst on a visit to New York recently. Check out the report via the NY Post: MARY J. Blige has a heart the size of her record sales. Last week, Blige was at the Diane von Furstenberg store in the Meatpacking District when she overheard a girl having a problem at the register. A spy said, “The girl had a dress on hold that she loved, and the bill was $900. She thought it was only $500, and she couldn’t afford it.” Blige told the saleswoman, “Go get the girl. I want to pay for the balance on the dress.” The customer at first declined Blige’s offer but relented after the singer said, “I know what it’s like to want something and not be able to have it. I insist.” The customer wanted to send her a check for the balance, but Blige said, “Just enjoy it. I’m blessed, so let me do this.”
Good on Mary…
Any thoughts?
THAT WAS REALLY NICE OF MARY!!!
Stories like this really warm my heart for real. Sometimes I forget there are still people out there with good hearts…
i’m not impressed. she helped pay for an expensive dress (not wedding). yes it was nice of her, but it certainly doesn’t move me.
nice..but im sure most clebs would of done same thing
$400 nothing to them anyways
Ohmygod the people above disgust me, nothing is good enough for you .. it’s a small gesture but a whole lot of small gestures rolled into one make a hell of a gesture..
You go mary, love you <3!
THE BIBLE SAYS!”GIVE AND IT SHALL BE GIVEN UNTO YOU PRESSED DOWN SHAKEN TOGETHER AND RUNNING OVER, SHALL MEN GIVE INTO YOUR BUSSOM”! THATS THE WAY U GET BLESSED PEOPLE IF U THINK ABOUT SOMEONES ELSE FOR A CHANGE!!!
aww thats so sweet and i’m also slightly jealous =P
I agree w/ Soufian. They need to stfu. Mary did a good thing! She didn’t have to get the dress, she could have purchased her stuff and bounced. lol Go Mary!
I didn’t expect for MJB to do that… that’s really nice… Now I’ll see her differently (I’m a fan of what she’s doing… I got all her albums but I never really was into the woman herself)
But wait a minute… Does it means that finally u’ll have soe Mary help in luxury shop only?
I am a yung black male an I just got blessed wit somthing good in my life.BEEN WORKING RELLY HARD. Im A yung biz man an biz is relly picking up.long story short. If im blessed all i would waunt a do is share my blessings.I think theres nothing wrong with that.Its bad when people cant even see a blessing an take it for what its worth.We all need two look at that man in the mirror.RELLY!
that was really sweet of her. i like hearing stories like this.
and to the dumbass that said most celebs would do the same thing. please name one celeb who did that exact same gesture out of the kindness of their hearts and not for publicity reasons?
awwww. Mary is so awesome, and no- NOT EVERY OTHER CELEBRITY would do it. Some, but not all. I think Paris Hilton did something similar not too long ago.
I couldn’t see some of the younger celebs doing what she did cause what she did came from the heart. She didn’t do it just 2 look good infront of the cameras.
That’s my girl. Mary has learned so much over the years. I’m proud of her. As one gives, it will always come back to you.
And yet another reason y i LOVE Mary!
ya’ll negative 1z need ta jus sthu 4 real, which part was publicity stunt?? thts MJB bein tru frm her heart! plz nme sum of these other celebrtity who wud b so kl about sumfin like that!! shut up!!
go Mary!
that was a good gesture, and i am so proud of mary j because she has matured and blossomed into extrordinary woman,and i may add, she developed alot of class which is a good thing. for the haters, if she didnt do that for the young lady, then you would say that b****, or why she cant give back or some dum s***. you cant please people , that is why she write songs like hate it or love it and take me as i am assholes.
