In reply to SMH.

I disagree. Mary is just not attractive in that way. She has always looked ROUGH. Furthermore, Mary always sold her voice and not her body. In her prime she was very ghetto, on drugs, rouch looking, one of her front teeth was silver, and she had a large ghetto entourage that went EVERYWHERE with her. There was 0 chance of men sexually abusing her or even wanting to because she just was / still is NOT SEXY. The "tomboy" claim is irrelevant! Aaliyah was a tomboy whe she entered the industry and everyone saw how quick R. Kelly prayed on her at the tender age of 14.

No disrespect to the Mary J Blige crazy stans. Many of them, and Mary J, herself think she is the sexiest woman walking the planet but in reality most people just love her for her vocal talents. Mary has not and could not ever sling sexy appeal. It is all about the voice with Ms. Blige.
