R&B queen Mary J. Blige may be presently battling contenders on the Billboard 200 with her acclaimed ‘My Life II’ album, but now it seems she’s taking those fighting skills to another arena. The ’25/8′ diva is certainly proving that concept to be more descriptive of her promo schedule as she joins rockers Nickelback to honor the troops via the annual NBC-sponsored special ‘Tribute To the Troops’.
Set for an hour-long special airing Saturday, December 17 at 9 p.m. on NBC (shot at Fort Bragg in North Carolina), the showing will be just one of many fans can expect to see the diva lend her talents to in the coming days including ‘VH1 Divas’ (Dec. 19) and ‘Home For the Holidays‘ with Martina McBride special (Dec. 21 at 8PM ET on CBS).
Until then, catch a snippet of Blige performing ‘Real Love’ for the troops after the jump:

Sam, if other artists who’ve been around for a shorter period than MJB have the right to “not care” about album sales, than so does she.
nice
For those of y’all who don’t know,Ft. Bragg is in/near Fayetteville (where J. Cole comes from)
Anyway,It seems awkward that Mary would be performing at a WWE event,but I ain’t mad at her…get that money (between here and Vh1 divas) Mary!
btw,I already received this news at 5/6am.
It is kinda awkward that she’d be performing at a WWE event, they are promoting the heck out of her album though. She sounded great.
She’s singing like its a gun o her head !!! I love i her voice is incredible !! Lol what’s awkward about an artist performing at an event??
