No More Drama singer Mary J Blige has revealed that the smash hit track, 'Umbrella', that kept Rihanna at the top of the UK charts all summer, was originally intended for her.
Mary J Blige passed up the opportunity of recording the song at the beginning of 2007 because she was too busy with the Grammy Awards.
But the R&B singer doesn't begrudge Rihanna's success:
'She's such a beautiful lady and I love her to death. I was so glad that she caught it and knocked it out of the park. It's still one of my favourite songs today.'
Ah bless.
