11 Times Mary J. Blige Was The Most Turnt Up Performer Ever

Leave the hateration at home.

This post is part of a weekly series celebrating #ThrowbackThursday with reflections of our favorite childhood memories, past pop culture moments and more!

Mary J. Blige always has her dancery boot on and ready.

She gets down like an aunt who’s too lit at the family cookout and we love every minute of it. She’s probably one of the only R&B artists who can use different variations of the same dance move for more than 20 years and still get the crowd hype.

In honor of MJB’s upcoming birthday, we’re commemorating her most memorable (and often hilarious) two-steps throughout the years. Turn on “Family Affair” and get ready to bounce along with these gifs.

Go Mary! Go Mary!
