We love Mary but it was funny and I will always go back to it for laughs... and now knowing that she was asking "whats in the wrap" and they speed it up 😭😭💀🤣🤣🤣🤣
I just went back to the commercial, it's classic! We love Mary J Blidge so much, i'm sad that it was not a good memory for her.. but we love Mary j forever. Still relevant and iconic in 2022! 💗
This is sad and I really feel like she really did this for the opportunity not for the money so I'm glad that she spoke about it and I wish her the best.
@@26socialbutterfly It was 2 million. But god forbid. It's a stupid commercial. We saw white people get naked for the naked chicken strips (forgot which restaurant). God forbid a black woman sing the ingredients to a chicken wrap. Would it be different if she sang the Big Mac song?
The commercial was not serious. It was funny. I took it very lightly. But it was hilarious. Because of her, i was interested in what was in the chicken wrap. I still love Mary. I am sad that she was hurt by everything around it. U never know what people goes through. God Bless....
She was really humble about it...I have to admit I nearly passed out laughing when I heard her describe the ad as looking like "Soft porn" and she started mimicking the music!
I'm glad Mary finally had her say about this commercial that to me was blown WAYYYYY out of proportion. If black celebrities advertising in chicken commercials was such a no-no, where were some of these protesters at when Shanice Wilson (at age 9) sung with Ella Fitzgerald in a KFC ad back in 1982? Or, where were they when LaWanda Page (aka Aunt Esther) was a spokeswoman for Church's doing their commercials.
I love who Mary IS more than anything else, and her character and integrity will shine despite her circumstances... she obviously has the light and the love of Lord in her life because those of us that do know ALL things work together for our good and the harder times are usually the most valuable for our growth... and if people have to jump on an innocent mistake you made to have something bad to say about you that says a lot about who you are and how you carry yourself
Amazing that some people are still stuck in 2012! OMG MJB has moved on!! In her line of work she is presented with all types of opportunities. I'm sure this is not the first time she was like damn I shouldn't did this or did that! Most people in life will never see this type of life she live, and the never ending opportunities that crosses her path! MJB is obviously on track!! Currently 2013, she is still being called on all around the world to sing! Don't believe me? Just Google it lol! So regular people stay in your lane, cause MJB being doing this for some time now, and I'm convinced she know what she doing!
It wasn't a mistake. It was a business move and ppl were too close minded to see it for what it really was. I love the commercial and it should have gotten air time
Wow, imagine saying all of this and having the hater or enemy sitting right next to you. It just puts things in perspective in life. My girl is still thriving though
Hello Mary J Blige I like the commercial and I still singing and dance to it to this day so Mary J Blige you did nothing wrong I celebrate and appreciate YOU, UUUUuuuuuuuu🎉😃😘💜💖💞😚💋💋💋🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎉🎈🎈🎈🎈🎊☔☀️ Sunshine after the rain Always😃😀😃😄😁DO WHAT YOU FEEL
I was definitely one of the confused pp. I didn't see or hear the video so I didn't understand why pp were going in on her. Love you Mary! Keep your head up girl.
I aint gonna lie that joint was hilarious LOL hahaha I laughed but it is what it is she back now!! And hopefully those same folks will have her back on this next joint Strength of a Woman LOL. That albums going to bump hopefully Burger King apologized to her about it b/c it wasn't hot LOL
AND, there certainly wasn't any noise made when Steven Tyler was singing and blowing on his harmonica singing about the same product Mary was pitching. Like one poster on this video said before, we as blacks have more important and pressing issues to be upset and fussing about other that snack wraps.
it is what it is...she's not the 1st black celeb to be manipulated into self-imposed degradation and she won't be the last. nevertheless, we must find comfort in the blessing that remains in spite of the intent...and that is the realization or implication of the belittlement that was attempted yet, did not prevail.
Honestly i liked the melody and beat of the song, and it got me into her original song that she used for the commercial. I can see how ppl were mad, but the song is actually catchy. I think it was a bad choice on her part but damn, ppl make mistakes.
This explanation is not coming across as genuine. You had a song you wrote (or was written for you), yet you ask what are the ingredients?? And you expect us to believe that wasn't part of the bit??
Well we all have fun jingles we make up and wish we got paid for endorsements simply singing about a sandwich she did got paid for it while everyone sittin on the side line looking
Its going to be ok Mary because even though people are still throwing shade over it, they're going to be the same one's in line somewhere ordering a two piece and a fruit punch or at somebody's dinner table with a mouth full of fried chicken!
Man, I don’t remember the backlash Mary got from this commercial. But me and my friends had a good time singing that song. It was catchy and funny.
Ced the Entertainer said she got $3 million for that commercial.
I would have done it too 💵
CRISPY CHXN, FRESH LETTUCE, 3 CHEESES, RANCH DRESSIN, WRAPPED UP IN A TASTY FLOUR TORTILLA !!! KINDA CATCHY TO ME
Our people are thin-skinned
Lmaooo I’m screaming. I feel bad for Mary but that commercial was just funny. Leave my sis alone
I laughed so damn hard at that commercial 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
We love Mary but it was funny and I will always go back to it for laughs... and now knowing that she was asking "whats in the wrap" and they speed it up 😭😭💀🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂
I just went back to the commercial, it's classic! We love Mary J Blidge so much, i'm sad that it was not a good memory for her.. but we love Mary j forever. Still relevant and iconic in 2022! 💗
YESSS! I totally agree.
This is sad and I really feel like she really did this for the opportunity not for the money so I'm glad that she spoke about it and I wish her the best.
k brown .brown Exactly. Not sure she got that much(which makes it worse), but trust, had it gone well, she wouldn’t be splainin’. LOL
@@26socialbutterfly It was 2 million. But god forbid. It's a stupid commercial. We saw white people get naked for the naked chicken strips (forgot which restaurant). God forbid a black woman sing the ingredients to a chicken wrap. Would it be different if she sang the Big Mac song?
It wasn’t the best choice 😂
She got 4 million dollars
What opportunity???
Never heard her side of it. They did her dirty. Not sure who "they" are. But....
advertisers
Lmao
The commercial was not serious. It was funny. I took it very lightly. But it was hilarious. Because of her, i was interested in what was in the chicken wrap. I still love Mary. I am sad that she was hurt by everything around it. U never know what people goes through. God Bless....
Facts I agree
Mary is a Queen. Respect is due ALWAYS.
Yandy Smith ripped that commercial apart with her impersonation. Absolutely hilarious!
How can people be mad about this, but not mad about those Popeye's commercials which are much worse?
It’s all bafoonery
lol but Popeyes is supposed to sell Chicken. But Burger King just used her to sell some chicken
Mary J Blige did nothing wrong. It's that Some people will complain no matter what you do. SMDH
She was really humble about it...I have to admit I nearly passed out laughing when I heard her describe the ad as looking like "Soft porn" and she started mimicking the music!
I am so sorry for what happen Mary. Keep your head up God is with you.
Mary you did your thang in the commercial, you sang and I love the commercial, and your commercial was better then David Beckham and the other lady.
I loved that crispy chicken wrap commercial it was funny I love it
Sameee
I'm glad Mary finally had her say about this commercial that to me was blown WAYYYYY out of proportion.

i bet she didn't return that 2 million dollar pay check though....
Two mill? For a chicken commercial?
Why would she ? The damage cost more than 2 million dollars
Nor should she, bruh. keep it real
@@sweeetzz what damage haha
Nor should she!
I'm so glad Mary did this interview, sat down and spoke on this issue and finally set the record str8.
I love who Mary IS more than anything else, and her character and integrity will shine despite her circumstances... she obviously has the light and the love of Lord in her life because those of us that do know ALL things work together for our good and the harder times are usually the most valuable for our growth... and if people have to jump on an innocent mistake you made to have something bad to say about you that says a lot about who you are and how you carry yourself
I don't care what she singing about she is still the queen that she is & I love her so haters stop hateing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Love Mary! She's the truth.
That commercial didn’t break you definitely didn’t make you. We love you for you. You the Queen
People are so cruel in this world as like celebrity don't have feelings
Celebrities have a special responsibility.
I loved the Jingle...I still have it a ringtone
I like yo lips
The commercial was no where near serious enough to have created all that controversy.
I still don't know how she was wrong. That was funny
Right lol
I honestly didn't see what the big deal was
Amazing that some people are still stuck in 2012! OMG MJB has moved on!! In her line of work she is presented with all types of opportunities.

I love Mary she is real
I will FOREVER rock w Mary!!! #MjbTheMVP
It wasn't a mistake. It was a business move and ppl were too close minded to see it for what it really was. I love the commercial and it should have gotten air time
Patti and Aretha sung for McDonald's back in the day. no one cared. Why does everyone care now?
exactly, its beyond me
Eli Slayz honey its how u do it
right
They weren't singing about chicken
Because something happened "back in the day" is immaterial: obviously culture has changed.
I'm in that "confused" category that she's talking about. I love Mary.
Fuck what other people say. That commercial was amazing, and we all know the lyrics.
Political correctness gone bad ... can't have a black singer doing a fast food commercial about a chicken sandwich ! idiocy.
In America ... fried too.
im so glad she talk out Love you Mary J
I still don't get it. What was the issue? I'm not understanding why the backlash of a song in a chicken commercial?
great interview. mary comes across as a star that's kept her humanity.
MJB represent for the home team people are always hating...Keep it 100
😂🤣 WAIT 👉 WHERE'S THE REMIX 😂🤣
they have a song together from back in the day called its on from her share my world album
I don’t think it’s that deep lol it’s just a commercial

I love you Mary 😍 You are a child of God bless you 😘
I aint gonna lie that joint was hilarious LOL hahaha I laughed but it is what it is she back now!! And hopefully those same folks will have her back on this next joint Strength of a Woman LOL. That albums going to bump hopefully Burger King apologized to her about it b/c it wasn't hot LOL
Well, she didn't have any problem sticking her head out there on the most recent situation...:)))
I believe you Mary xoxoxo
LMAO!
Things I Wonder what situation was that?
Here we are 10 years later and TikTokers has gotten a hold of it now 😂 "crispy chicken drenched in fat bat wrapped in chitlins dipped in hot sauce!"
lmao!!!! at Mary on 7:41-7:53 *dead* lol
Does anyone have a link to the actual commercial video? I just can't grasp why anyone can attack her for just a commercial about a meal
AND, there certainly wasn't any noise made when Steven Tyler was singing and blowing on his harmonica singing about the same product Mary was pitching. Like one poster on this video said before, we as blacks have more important and pressing issues to be upset and fussing about other that snack wraps.
you feel me
I loved that commercial leak 😁
Now look at everybody. Acting a damn fool over what? Oh yeah... a CHICKEN SANDWICH!!!
Yep lol and now vax that thang up.
I think the commercial is funny that's not bad to me.. She killed the song
Golly that song was awesome!
Listen, Mary could sing a song about roache's & rat's & she would still SLAY & ALWAY'S WILL BE THE QUEEN OF HIP-HOP SOUL
Right! THE QUEEN! regardless. So with that said...."crispy chicken' fresh lettuce on a tortilla" !!! Nothin wrong with it!
THERE WERE OTHER INGREDIENTS IN IT!!!!!!! THE LETTUCE!!!!!
😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
🎶Is it a gunnnn? Is it a knife? Is it a Wallet???

Why should she feel bad? She got 3 million for it. I'd do it too for that amount.
I LOVE YOU MARY

LMAO did she just say soft porn? LOL love it
You are the queen mary dont worrie about it Mary
Was sad but that commercial was funny tho
Now....the celebrity's WANT to be attached to a fast food franchise
it is what it is...she's not the 1st black celeb to be manipulated into self-imposed degradation and she won't be the last. nevertheless, we must find comfort in the blessing that remains in spite of the intent...and that is the realization or implication of the belittlement that was attempted yet, did not prevail.
I didn't think it was negative cos that ad picks me up when im blue ... never tasted the chicken tho js
"What's in the chicken-wrap?They sped it up and made me look like a fool when I was really just asking what was in them."
Poison
So she was asking “what’s in the chicken rap?” and they made it seem like she was saying “what’s in the chicken wrap?!?” Is that what it was?
What happened?
I ride with Mary J ..I love you Mary !
Mary started a trend. Years later Snoop done Just Eat commercials.
What's with the subtitles now? wtf?
Honestly i liked the melody and beat of the song, and it got me into her original song that she used for the commercial. I can see how ppl were mad, but the song is actually catchy. I think it was a bad choice on her part but damn, ppl make mistakes.
This explanation is not coming across as genuine. You had a song you wrote (or was written for you), yet you ask what are the ingredients?? And you expect us to believe that wasn't part of the bit??
Well we all have fun jingles we make up and wish we got paid for endorsements simply singing about a sandwich she did got paid for it while everyone sittin on the side line looking
they did in 1998.
im tripping cause she started doing the music lol
Is this who willie d was talking about in that song???
Its going to be ok Mary because even though people are still throwing shade over it, they're going to be the same one's in line somewhere ordering a two piece and a fruit punch or at somebody's dinner table with a mouth full of fried chicken!
Awww Mannn Mary Whyyyyyyyy???!!!
