Why does Mary get a cover EVERY year! I mean really! I’m tired of seeing her on Vibe. What about other artist like India. Arie, Angie Stone…. Why does Neo Soul get NO love! SOMEONE TELL ME!

I thought this was a joke cuz I looked at the cover and thought it was Keyshia Cole, but it says Mary J. Blige. That does not look like Mary! haha

She looks exactly like Keyshia Cole in that picture. They definitely could have scrapped that.

hahahaha! I thought that was Keyshia Cole too! I came here to post that and realized many others say the same thing LOL! And granted Mary was sporting the blond long before Keyshia…Keyshia came out this time around before Mary with this look (cropped blonde), yet Mary insisted to do it, knowing it was dead on Keyshia’s new look…so if ever there was an argument about the 2 looking the same this time…my vote goes w/ Keyshia!

My sentiments exactly about the similarities.
However Mary is just taking her look back cause she rocked this look on her “My Life” album and added in some modern tweaks.

It does remind my of Keyshia cole and the scary part is I can’t see mary in there no where. I don’t see Mary J Blige on the cover.

That’s Mary by far. What cover in today’s world doesn’t have a little retouch to it? Keyshia is the knock of version of Mary. Just like Ri Ri is the knock off version of Beyonce. STOP buying knock offs.

every one that displays any kind of hate towards mary should really take alook at themselves and find out wher they went wrong on being judgemental
