Mary J. Blige showed her stars and stripes at Sunday’s NBA All-Star Game. Dressed in all black with curly hair, the Queen of Hip-Hop Soul presided over the court with a soulful rendition of “The Star-Spangled Banner.”

While Mary was in Orlando, she was thinking of her friends in Hollywood attending the Academy Awards. “Had a great time at the game. Congrats to my girl Octavia on her Oscar win 2night,” she tweeted in support of The Help actress.
