Tyler Perry just chose the queen of R&B, Mary J. Blige, to co-star in his next film, “I Can Do Bad All By Myself,” which will hit the big screen on Sept. 11. Blige will be joined by cast member Taraji P. Henson. MJB will play a nightclub manager and singer who is good friends with Henson’s character. I can’t wait for this to come out! The movie is actually being shot now at TP’s Atlanta Studios. We hear “Madea” will be making an appearance in the movie. Lawd No! This will be Blige’s third acting stint. She was a guest on HBO’s hit show, Entourage. Her last big-screen appearance was in the 2001 drama “Prison Song.”

As previously reported, BET Honors went down this past weekend. We heard there was a bit of drama on the set. Keyshia Cole was supposed to sing one of Mary J Blige’s song for a BET Honor Tribute to Blige. But we hear that Blige’s husband/manager, Kendu Isaacs, said NO to the idea. “He thought there was already too much comparison between Keyshia and Mary,” an insider said. “They were going back and forth on it all week. It got ugly.” (more…)

R&B superstar, Mary J. Blige, will be launching her new fragrance via Carol’s Daughter called MY LIFE by Mary J. Blige. Blige, who is an ambassador for the beauty line Carol’s Daughter, said “I am Carol’s Daughter and my fans are Carol’s Daughter users”, “So it just made sense to partner.” Set for a release sometime next year, her MY LIFE fragrance borrows its name from her second album. “Ever since I was a child, I loved buying products that made me feel beautiful and clean,” Mary said to WWD. “I’m a total beauty nut — you should check out all the junk in my bathroom.”

Hip Hop has made it its duty to be active in the election campaign. With only one day remaining until the BIG ELECTION DAY, Jay-Z and Sean Diddy, Russell Simmons, Kevin Liles and Mary J Blige came thru to South Florida to encourage everyone to vote despite the long poll lines. I, Miss Xpose, was in line for five in a half hours yesterday people! You can do it too! “It’s bigger than us,” Combs said. “We have to do it for our children, we have to do it for the people that died for us to have the right to vote.” Hova, Diddy, and MJB appeared before a large crowd of almost 800 plus people at the Florida Memorial University for a “Last Chance for Change” rally Sunday afternoon. “We stood in line to get the new Lil’ Wayne CD,” Liles said. “We stood in line to get a new pair of Jordans. We stood in line to get in here. So we ain’t afraid of no lines.” SO TRUE! None of the artist performed, but they took the time to create awareness as to the importance of this campaign.
