Mary J. Blige Does Her Thing at the Kentucky Derby

Looking regal in red, the Queen of Hip-Hop Soul pulled a fast one at the 2012 Kentucky Derby by singing the National Anthem with style, grace and soul as only she could.  Initially, many people were vocal in their objections to Mary singing the anthem after the Burger King situation, but nay sayers be damned, Ms. Blige received a rousing round of applause after belting her personal heartfelt rendition.  I am sure if Queen Marie Antionette had heard the Queen of Hip-Hop Soul, she would have said, "Let them eat cake".  I say, "Let them eat crispy chicken wraps".
