Mary J Blige sings, shares on The Oprah Winfrey Show
During Mary J. Blige’s appearance on The Oprah Winfrey Show on April 13, Blige sang a cover of Led Zeppelin’s “Stairway to Heaven” and discussed her experiences growing up in New York.
“When I was growing up, it wasn‘t cool to be educated, so I fell into that slump. When you‘re in a peer-pressure situation where you‘re forced to do what everyone else does to survive, then you end up like I did,” Blige told Oprah.
One of the things she’s done to better the lives of others since she struck it big is founding the Foundation for the Advancement of Women Now, which provides opportunities to women seeking education and support.
“From mothers to daughters to aunts, black, white, it doesn‘t matter who you are,” Blige said. “If you need help, the Mary J. Blige Center for Women is here.”
