Mary J. Blige has launched the official video for “Each Tear” featuring Jay Sean.? The vid, shot totally in Black & White is from Mary’s “Stronger with Each Tear” CD.
It features a ton of tears (to be expected), hand-wringing and frustrated kids who turn into beautiful, artistic, grown-up versions of themselves.

Grammy award winning singer Mary J. Blige was spotted at the debut for the limited-edition FFAWN + Catherine Malandrino capsule collection of T-shirts at Bloomingdale?s flagship store in NYC.
The diva, shown above rocking renowned fashion designer Catherine Malandrino’s creation, also appeared on Late Night with David Letterman where she graciously discussed her road to stardom:
I made a tape at the Galleria Mall singing a song called ‘caught up in the rapture” by Anita Baker (my favorite artist at the time) and I passed the tape on to my mother’s boyfriend…who knew an artist by the name of Jeff Red…who passed the tape on the Andre Harrell… who then came to my house and got a free concert.
I guess I wasn’t as ‘clean’ or as ‘crisp’ as say either a Whitney or Mariah at the time. I was more street smart and kind of edgy. So people weren’t ready for me. Turns out they were ready for me…

The 52nd Annual Grammy Awards was full of glitz, glamor and of course hot couples. From old school, new school and anything in betwen… there were several couples boo’d up at the Grammys. Mary J. Blige and hubby Kendo were all smiles on the red carpet and were also spotted backstage as Mary prepared for her performance:
After the slap heard around the world, it sees that Mary & Kendu are doing A-OK!? As she said on her twitter immediately after the incident, “He ain’t goin nowhere…NO WHERE!”
Pleasure P and Bria Murphy (comedian Eddie Murphy’s oldest daughter) are hanging in there. The two have been “dating” for a few months now and apparently Bria is unfazed by those pesky molestation rumors that have been haunting P.
I’m sure Eddie would have put his foot down by now if there were any truth to any of that…
