Mary J. Blige Says “No More Broke Men” – She’s Done Playing Provider 💅🏽💸

R&B icon Mary J. Blige is setting boundaries and standing firm on her worth — and she’s not sugarcoating it. The Grammy-winning queen recently made it clear that she has no intention of dating a man who isn’t financially stable. In her own words: “I’m not taking care of any more men.” Period.
After years of public and personal struggles — including a high-profile divorce where she ended up paying alimony — Mary has learned her lesson the hard way. She’s done playing the provider in relationships, and she’s letting the world know: a man needs to come correct or not come at all.
“I’ve worked too hard and sacrificed too much to build this life, to now go backwards and carry someone who can’t carry themselves,” she shared in a recent interview. And honestly? Can you blame her?
Mary isn’t saying a man has to be a millionaire, but she is saying that effort, ambition, and the ability to match her energy are non-negotiable. “It’s not about money alone,” she clarified. “It’s about self-respect, responsibility, and knowing how to contribute to a partnership.”
Fans are applauding her for speaking up and protecting her peace — especially after everything she’s been through. In a world where some still expect women to build a man from the ground up, Mary’s drawing a line: she’s the prize, not the project.
So if you’re trying to date Mary J. Blige, make sure your pockets — and your purpose — are in order. Because this queen isn’t doing struggle love anymore. And honestly? She shouldn’t have to. 👑✨
#Respectfully.
