A quote from the Queen herself regarding the My Life, My Story Vegas Residency below, via USA Today:

“‘I’ve been so excited to announce this Vegas residency,’ Blige said in a release alongside the announcement. ‘Creating a show like this has been something I’ve always wanted to do. It’s a chance to get my fans together from all over – different cities, states, and countries – to experience something together. My Life, My Story will be just that – with some surprises for my fans that have been there through it all. See you in May!’
