Mary J. Blige's Style Has Only Gotten Better Over The Years

The saying goes that the more money and fame you gain the more you change but that couldn’t be further from the truth when it comes to Mary J. Blige. Today, the 47-year-old Bronx native turns 47, yet she’s still the same woman whose music we use to coddle our broken hearts, just like we did back in ’92 when she sang about searching for a “Real Love.”

But you don’t even have to know Mary’s extensive catalog to see that she hasn’t transformed into some untouchable Hollywood A-lister, just look at the singer’s style which has barely changed since she first hit red carpets in the ’90s — she’s just upgraded a bit.
