MJB maybe be a diva but she’s a swettie at heart. According to Page Six,
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.”
It’s nice to read a feel good story from time to time other than those scandilous tabloid mes celebrities are usually involved in. Who knew, Mary had a heart of gold. Check out MJB out and about last night with hubby, Kendu, and kids.

Damn some people got all the luck! I got a full time job, I’m about to start a second part-time job and I still can’t afford a damn dress from Forever 21 for Gods sakes! I could have gotten ALOT of crappy dresses from Forever 21 for that much! HELP!
