“I would love to! Absolutely.  That was two songs. Imagine I have a two-hour set? I’m performing two hours every night of all the Mary J. Blige songs on a tour like that. Come on. With me, Kendrick, Dre, Eminem, 50? That’s ridiculous,” Mary says.

During the halftime show, Mary performed ‘Family Affair’ and ‘No More Drama,’ she revealed what led to her set list, “Dre decided on ‘Family Affair,’ of course, because he produced it and Dre decided on ‘No More Drama’ as well.  I thought it was important when he said ‘No More Drama’ because of the climate in the world right now and how everybody is just tired of everything. I was like, ‘Oh yes, this is perfect because I’m feeling like this too,'” she says.

And remember when Mary fell on her back towards the end of her performance? There’s a reason for that.  Mary explains, “That’s just a sign of how I felt.  You just get tired fighting, and I’m like, ‘I’m tired,’ and just passed out. That’s what ‘No Drama’ means. I know the world just want to pass out right now from all this bulls—.”
