This has probably nothing to do with anything related to this thread; most likely it's comparing apples to oranges, but:
Kelly Rowland of Destiny's Child is performing at Minneapolis Gay Pride this year. In a parking lot. For being out of her group less than a decade, I think this is a pretty big fall. Of course, all of the queens are excited.....
Mary on the otherhand, being out of her group for more than 3 decades is playing Vegas, traveling and performing in Europe, and is getting rave reviews for her "Up Close" and "Lena" shows.
While I don't know if Mary is ONLY known for being a Supreme, she sure has built a career out of her "ooooohs", "ahhhhhs" and "baby babys".
