Mary J. Blige Has Grown Into Resilient, Glamorous Diva

Ashante Infantry of The Toronto Star was also at Mary J. Blige’s concert at the Air Canada Centre on Monday. Infantry said of Blige’s performance, “Two weeks into a three-month world tour, her voice is phenomenal. And Blige is a shadow of the greasy, combat-boot wearing, ’round the way girl who once challenged a journalist to a fight. She still has the tattoos and can bust a mean rap and a Cabbage Patch, but she’s finally grown into her voice, emerging a resilient, glamorous diva.”
