Mary Wilson seems to be everywhere, doing everything these days. So far since the beginning of the year she has performed here in the States, went on a tour of Russia & the Ukraine, a U.K. Tour, released her new single, did about a dozen or more interviews and now she is starring in a tribute to her "Den Mother" and mentor, the late great Ms. Lena Horne! I need some of those vitamins she's taking.......LOL!

Great! I just hope she doesnt overdo it--she has had health problems before and I think she needs to take it easy too!

Mary found her niche, at last. Bless her. But she should take care of her health... and weight. Gowns with sleeves, however see-through, could work the proverbial miracles, Mary, if your weight behaves like a yo-yo. Nothing to worry about when you have this respectable age, my dear.

I agree. She needs to save something up for the promotion of her new CD , "Clarity" when it is released here in the U.S.

I still like her best on really sad ballads and soul love ballads.

So right you are! Does it really get much better than "You Are the Heart of Me" and "We Should Be Closer Together"?
