It’s pretty obvious that 50 Cent and Timbaland have most likely dabbled in various “performance-enhancing” drugs - but R&B singer Mary J. Blige? What good could possibly come out of Blige taking ‘roids?

I’m baffled…and intrigued!

The Times Union reported that Blige and the other celebs in question used fake names to order and pick up prescriptions in Florida from Dr. Gary Brandwein, who was tied to the steroid scandal involving deceased WWF wrestler Chris Benoit.

Wyclef Jean and Tyler Perry have also been named as steroid users in the article, but who cares? I can’t get over Mary J. “Not Gon’ Cry” Blige. Seriously: if it’s true I’ll be floored and very confused. Couldn’t she just take coke and pills like any other maladjusted superstar?

Nothing confuses me more than singers like Blige (and Whitney Houston too, for that matter) that release these inspirational songs that middle-aged moms go nuts over, just to debunk their own myth by plummeting deep into drugs, depression and overall indecency.

It’s a funny world we live in, folks.

“Don’t tell me it’s not worth fightin’ for
I can’t help it - there’s nothin’ I want more
Ya know it’s true
Everything I do - I do it for you�

Oh Bryan, how many times have I secretly turned that song up in the car, letting that raspy voice of yours lull me into a romantic haze? You’re my secret boyfriend. And that song you sing with Sting (my other secret boyfriend) and Rod Stewart (who I don’t want to be my boyfriend at all) where you all urge me to make it “all for one and all for loveâ€? has the ability to transport me out of my cynical cloud for two whole minutes.

I’m not ashamed of my secret soft spot for soft rock. I’m not embarrassed that whenever a Backstreet Boys ballad mysterious turns up on my iTunes, I let it play out entirely, soaking up every syrupy sound wave. In this complicated world, soft rock is there to pretend things are simple. Love is love, heartbreak is heartbreak, and everyone is willing to die for a lifetime with their soul mate. After weekends full of “hey baby, why don’t me and you go into the bathroom and make out?â€?, it’s always nice to know Phil Collins is there, waiting to tell me he “can’t stop loving meâ€? as many times as I feel like replaying the track.

This will give you goose bumps.
