Twitter Is Not Mary J. Blige's Friend


Mary J. Blige is no stranger to embarrassing Twitter screw-ups. Who can forget her infamous Tweet about people who "under stand estimate her inteligents" when she lied about being accepted to Howard University [click here if you missed that]?

Welp, Mary just may have topped that ridiculous Tweet last night when she Tweeted her congratulations to First Lady Michelle Obama after the First Lady's moving Democratic National Convention speech...

 Doh!

Too much crispy chicken affects your spelling I guess......Hooked on Phonics worked for me!

Okay , I'm pretty sure it was autocorrect . I have sent tons of embarrassing texts and tweets because of autocorrect that's why i turned that mothafucka off!

I guess under stand over estimate what she was trying to say.lmaooooooooo.I'm imagining there is an actual Micheal Obama gloating about a shout out from the future spokesperson of "Baby Can Read"?

Nothing, I mean nothing, can top that
"don't understand estimate her intelligents" tweet. Well, at least she can spell her own name.

She's just a reflection of Obama's voting block.

Awwww leave her alone. Just saw her Sunday night here in Houston and she tore the roof off. She even spoke about the terrible year she has had an all the embarrassing stuff she has gone through. She may not be smart but she has worked damn hard. A lot of you can type a mean comment but can barely keep your lights on. In the end she is living her dream. She isn't perfect but she always keeps it real. I have a lot of respect for her. Plus she gives a hell of a show.

MICHAEL OBAMA....

AaaaHaHaaaa
I'm not laughing at mary, I'm laughing because it's too funny when people use the wrong names or references when they're trying to show their support to someone or something, that's something they would do in an SNL skit. This reminds me of a standup (I think it was Bruce Bruce) he was pretending to be a drunk and said he was voting for Obamma and he pronounced it just like Bamma. It's funny when wrong names are used but you trying to show support.

Well, aside from the unfortunate typo, it's a nice message and her words are consistent with her own efforts to have a positive effect on people's lives, especially women.

She looks like a thinner NeNe in that pic.

mary is not too smart book wise and that is sad not funny.. this just shows she did not do well in school.. she spelled michelle the way she pronounces it. at least thats what she thought. do a double check or spell check mary.. you are my age hon.. we were raised that if you speak ghetto you are never to actually compose letters and other writings in the same fashion..

'Murry' didnt type that shit no how after all the shit she got before. I blame auto correct too.

Anonymous said...

Everyone understood perfectly what Mary was saying. It is in extremely bad taste as well as mean spirited to put someone down due to what you perceive as a shortcoming. Einstein was a genius however his spelling was atrocious. Ponder on that my friends.

For those excusing her ignorance with auto-correct, the name she wrote is spelled MichAEl, NOT EAl. So, auto-correct DIDN'T do it. And @12:29, whether she works hard or not, I know first hand she's a b*tch and thinks she the one. AND she sings sharp too. So f*ck her ignorant ass...

Really @ 11:48 AM? It's evident that YOU need to brush up on your grammar, especially the section on the use of the apostrophe, comma and sentence structure. Your sentence is illogical and makes no sense.

Your sentence would have read better this way:
It's evident that Mary J. Blige didn't attend or finish elementary school.

I was waiting for someone to note that "autocorrect" didn't correct the misspelled "Michael" - which lets everyone know this was a twitter/tech/literacy blunder on the part of a human, not a machine - thanks 1:40 PM, lol.

Perhaps Mary J and Tyrese should be tutored in spelling. When you are in the public eye people expect you to know such basic things. However, maybe neither one of them are high school grads and didn't pay much attention when they were in school.

@10:59, ya know, I was gonna type a comment, but now I'm not. You just flatlined me. R.I.P anon

No she did not top her last tweet, she almost got Michelle's name right, after all Michael is French for Michelle so maybe that's what Mary's drunk ass ment *shrugs*.

When intelligence and basic skills are measured, just observe the horrible writing levels on this site. It brings me to tears sometimes. I thank God that I had a good education.

@ 12:59 Yeah it is funny when that happens like the time the lady on the view was trying to show support & called Pres. Obama Osama by mistake. The audience was so quiet you could hear a pin drop lol.

Not to be disrespectful, but there's no reason for any young African American person to have poor reading and writing skills in this day and age in the Millennium, especially if you were born at the height of the civil rights movement and beyond.

Um...idk what kind of phone y'all have but my iPhone would not autocorrect Michelle to an incorrect spelling of michAEl!!!

She's worse than posters on RWS!

I know this site isn't an English course, BUT DAMN!!! If you can't type correctly (words and grammar) on here, then we know you lack these skills elsewhere!

Can't be pretty and dumb! That doesn't last forever!

You know black people only care about looking good.

Then wonder why they can't compete in the workforce with others.
