A black bourgeoisie perspective on U.S. politics
Are we really approaching a point in our society where non-athletes use performance enhancing drugs just to look good?
“Mary J. Blige has never taken any performance-enhancing illegal steroids,” the singer’s spokeswoman Karynne Tencer told the Daily News.
The R&B singer leads a roster of entertainers named in a probe by Albany County District Attorney David Soares, the Times Union reported.
Rappers 50 Cent, Timbaland and Wyclef Jean and actor Tyler Perry also allegedly ordered steroids or human growth hormone from doctors and pharmacists targeted in Soares‘ investigation, according to the paper.
I knew 50 was juicing when I heard the Massacre. There’s no way he could have done that without drugs. I’m…not looking forward to the possibility of steroid-related rhymes.
As for Mary J, I send my condolences to Soulbounce.
