Rumor Control: Is Mary J. Blige REALLY going to Howard?
Poor Mary J. Blige. A few days ago, she announced before a Good Morning America performance that she had received her GED and was accepted into Howard University.
Howard didn’t let her or fans enjoy a moment of excitement before they shut her down, embarrassingly releasing a statement suggesting that Mary had not been admitted into the university. Their statement:
We encourage Ms. Blige to continue her studies and welcome her consideration of Howard University in the future. We are happy to work with Ms. Blige on completing the formal process for admission.
Mary tweeted this morning that she was indeed accepted into Howard and that she has an acceptance letter, which she framed, that proves it. However, her rep released a statement late last night stating that Mary will not be attending Howard this fall.
This is crazy. *Kanye voice* Why won’t they let Mary be great? I doubt she would make up a story like this. Anyway, best wishes to her and her future academic endeavors.
