Mary J. Blige has signed a new three-picture deal with Lifetime, extending her partnership with the network. The first film under the agreement, 'Mary J. Blige Presents Be Happy,' is set to premiere on February 7, 2026. It stars Tisha Campbell and marks the directorial debut of Gabourey Sidibe.
A Manhattan judge dismissed a lawsuit filed by stylist Misa Hylton against Mary J. Blige on January 6, 2026, citing abandonment of claims after Hylton failed to respond to a motion to dismiss. The judge warned Hylton against future bad faith litigation tactics. The suit accused Blige of interfering with Hylton's management of rapper Vado.
