Mary J. Blige: Bringing 'Pain' All Over The Place

1. I think it is a shame she will not be at the Grammy's but I love seeing her on TV because she is so talented.

2. Growing Pains? Don't you mean Human Growth Hormone Pains?

3. Cecil, Cecil, Cecil, always a joker. Your comments aren't funny at ALL! If you don't have anything positive to comment on Mary don't make any comments at all. Mary is very talented and doesn't pay people like you any mind. Mary got a slamin CD. What do you have? "Who are you"?

4. I will miss Mary not being in the Grammy's this year, but look forward in seeing her on TV. She always have a good performance. I just hope, Mary will get over her past and move forward. It seems, she is tired of people talking about her and still has some issues. I am some what tired of hearing her sing about songs that remind her of pain, I mean "Hurt Again" and "Growing Pains" are songs that Mary is emotionally feeling now and what she felt in her past. Shouldn't she be happy by now? In my opinion, I think Mary should let it go and get over what she is going through. Don't get me wrong, there are a lot of happy songs Mary has put out now and in the past that I liked.

Mary had made a comment on BET about, how she is trying to deal with what negative things people say about her. If I was an artist, I wouldn't care what people say. Those or the things that celebrities have to deal with. She has a good husband, she is beautiful, talent, making hits, and came along way. She should do what makes Mary happy and thank "GOD" for her success. Mary, just ask "GOD" what direction to go and how to deal with your emotions. Don't be emotionally ruled by the world. You will see that "GOD" will answer your prayers and "Bless" you in so many ways! "GOD" is the only source to go to in time of need!

5. I think that Mary is getting over her past and is dealing with it exceptionally well. It is evident that she is moving forward with leaps and bounds. We all have issues and her music is her platform that she uses to express that; and is very therapeutic for her. Even though some people may be tired of hearing her songs that deal with her past, just remember that there are people everyday still going through or dealing with that pain, and her music is a form of therapy for them as well.

I think that she seems to be very happy now, but just because you are happy does not mean that you cannot get everything off your chest and in the process possibly help others. Additionally, I'm sure that she knows that the opinions of people can be harsh because it helps them in some sick way, but I think that she handles it very well. Finally, it seems that she constantly gives thanks and praise to GOD for bringing her this far, so let's just let her continue to do her thing because she is doing it well. Let's just be proud of her and continue to support her.

7. People need to stop hating on Mary! Even if she used hormones so what we eat them every day in our food. As long as she doesn't hurt herself and a doctor is helping who cares.

8. I hate she will not be on the Grammy's, but I will watch the Soap Opera. I don't watch Soaps but to see Mary I will. I read a comment where someone tried to make a pun on the "pain" thing by saying "human growth
hormone pains" now that was tacky. Ithink there are wayy tmany things to worry about than the steroid use, Yes, it's serious when people do this. But, I guess the media has to take our minds to this. But, think about how many soldiers have died in war, and where in the workd are those weapons of mass destruction(breast implants don't count" Mary, is a good artist and I like the idea of seeing a dark skinned woman looking lovely and doing her thing. Big ups to Mary. Stay Blessed Everyone
