Great. Maybe she can help more of FLOTUS’s family chain migrate to the States. 🙄
Too funny for words, and sadly true. Slovenia, for g*d's sake. Hard to realize this is not a joke.Quote:

Mary is on a world tour. She sure can bring some love!
She's performed on every continent and just about every country in the world over the last 20 years!Quote:

We can’t just be happy for her instead of being negative
Nobodys being negative dear we are being honest. Its just real ridiculous the way the BFFs exaggeratte Miss Wilsons career and i know she wouldn’t appreciated it.Quote:

She looks great though.
She is a U.S. Ambassador. She is doing it for America! Besides, as unpopular as Trump is, which in turn has hurt the Global standing of the U.S., they should be on their knees thanking Mary Wilson! LOL!Quote:

She also replaced Princess Diana as the Worldwide representative for HDI [[Humpty Dumpty Institute). To find and destroy forgotten landmines and bombs left in countries around the World.Quote:

I know she was at one point [[some other President made her one) but not anymore.Quote:

Certainly more than most in this forum, I imagine.
Can you imagine a Vandella or Marvelette being the ambassador of anything other than Motown? Mary could've easily fallen into obscurity, as so many singers in her position have done. She may not be my favorite Supreme, and I certainly have my criticisms, but she sure does commend my respect. I'd actually vote for her to be honored at Black Girls Rock. She'd definitely be a woman I'd want young girls to emulate. The tenacity to keep going and exceed expectations, this should be lauded.
In the real world, anyway. Certainly not this forum.:rolleyes:
Well said RanRan
Tearing down Mary isnÂ’t the point of cracking jokes at the absurdity of the motive behind these constant posts. MaryÂ’s the keeper of the flame of the Supremes and in many instances, Motown itself. We think itÂ’s great that sheÂ’s still out there looking great and carrying on.Quote:

If Mary and said individual were friends or if he actually attended any of these events heÂ’s so hellbent in promoting [[NYC hint hint), weÂ’d probably take these posts more seriously.
Puffing Mary up with a incessant posts about her subpar solo recording career [[potential “smash”? LOL), obscure events played, or upcoming sure-to-be sparsely attended gigs simply because Diana Ross makes headlines for a #1 dance single, an appearance on the Grammys, or heaven-forbid, is referenced as an influencer, seems a bit loony to me.
Then again, I donÂ’t live in the real world where Mary Wilson is a household name and deserves a bevy of awards and tributes.
And the hits just keep on coming.

This guy right here------->RanRan79. I was forewarned before going into the thread that it would be yet another "who gives a shit" detail about this woman's birthday party, thanks to the subject title. So the question begs to be answered: if you know a thread is about Mary Wilson, and the content will surely contain posts made by her biggest fan, who may also exaggerate Mary's accomplishments, why be bothered with the thread at all? I enjoy a good ribbing at one or more Supreme members' expense, but some of y'all get carried away, and then turn it all personal.Quote:
