From music to wine, Mary J. Blige is all about expanding the brand. The “Good Morning Gorgeous” singer stopped by the Sherri show on Tuesday (March 8) to dish about her new talk show, wine, a children’s book and more.
Blige, who glammed it up in a black Balmain jacket and ankle boots, leather leggings and Versace sunglasses, revealed that she drinks her own wine on her talk show, The Wine Down With Mary J. Blige, airing Wednesdays on BET.
“It’s my Sun Goddess wine,” Blige told host Sherri Shepherd when asked about her drink of choice for the show. “That wine will get you going! It’s available wherever you want to buy it.”
Launched in 2020, Sun Goddess includes pinot grigio, sauvignon blanc, Prosecco brut and merlot. The collection of affordably priced wines is available at major retailers such as Wine.com, Total Wine & More and through delivery apps like DoorDash.
During the chat with Shepherd, Blige also revealed the motivation behind her new children’s book Mary Can! dropping later this month.
“It’s inspired from a very heavy part of my life when this person was telling me that I ‘couldn’t’ or ‘can’t’ and everybody was better [than me],” Blige said in reference to her previous marriage. “So, I took my hell and turned it into someone else’s heaven by inspiring some little girl or boy to feel good about [themselves].”
Mary Can! will be released on March 28. The children’s book is $19.99 for a hardcover copy and $10.99 for the Kindle version (click here to pre-order).
