HOLLYWOOD, Calif. — Mary J. Blige brought some extra attention to her record release party Tuesday night when she allegedly slapped her husband at a New York City club.
The 38-year-old singer reportedly became upset when she noticed her hubby, Kendu Isaacs, flirting with a waitress at the event, which was held at M2 Ultralounge.
"She turned to him and was screaming, 'You're not going to ruin my night,' " an eyewitness told the New York Post. "They got up in each other's faces before someone tried to separate them, at which point she shoved the guy aside, pulled back and popped [Isaacs] in the face."
"She was yelling at him, 'What are you gonna do, Chris Brown me?' " added the witness.
Blige's rep has since disputed the story, claiming that the Grammy winner was actually trying to stop a brawl between Isaacs and her brother.
"Mary was not fighting with her husband," her rep told the New York Daily News. "Her husband and her brother got into an altercation that turned into a fight. Mary went to break up the fight."
Guests at the party, which was in celebration of Blige's new album, Stronger with Each Tear, included superstar R&B couple Jay-Z and Beyoncé.
