I knew there was a reason I liked Mary J. Blige

mary-blige-nc.pngMary J. Blige just won a spot in my calloused heart. Listen to what she did for some lady.

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.” – source

Wasn’t that nice? What a lucky girl!
