Mary J. Blige spent her birthday marking another major milestone in her career as she was presented with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on Jan. 11. The dedication followed speeches from record producer Andre Harrell and fellow music icon Sean “Diddy” Combs. Both praised Blige for her talent and strength.
“I’m so grateful for this star right now because I’ve earned it probably three times,” said Blige. “I say that with confidence and not arrogance. I say it because I know that now, and I know my worth, and what this means.”
