In October, Mary J. Blige was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. It was during that speech that Blige said, “To my fans, to my fans, to my fans. To my fans, y’all endure blood, sweat and tears with me and helped me heal just as much as you said, I helped you heal.”

Over the span of a 32-year career. Blige has racked up the Grammy nominations, taking home nine of them, and an Emmy award, among many others.

The New York City native released her 15th studio album, “Gratitude,” in November to compliment the tour.
