Mary J. Blige says she has found religion, but she makes no apologies for her earthly materialism. And that means wearin' bling.
“My God is a God who wants me to have things,” the R&B superstar told Blender magazine in the May issue.
“He wants me to bling. He wants me to be the hottest thing on the block. I don’t know what kind of God the rest of y’all are serving, but the God I serve says, ‘Mary, you need to be the hottest thing this year, and I’m gonna make sure you’re doing that’.”
Blige also is not modest when it comes to her place in history. “I do consider myself part of black history,” she said. “Since 1991, I’m still doing this and I’m successful. And I haven’t hurt anyone in the process.”
