The program has featured Arcade Fire, John Legend & The Roots, Sugarland, Duran Duran, My Morning Jacket and most recently, Coldplay. Mary will be the first solo artist to perform in the series.
Adam Shankman, who cast Mary in the upcoming film Rock of Ages, will direct the livestream performance, which will be livestreamed from Club Nokia in Los Angeles, at 11:00 PM ET / 8:00 PM PT on Thursday, November 17th at YouTube.com/MaryJBligeVEVO.

“We’re going to do the first My Life in its entirety—really make it something special,” Mary told The New York Times. “And once we’re done with that, we’re going to do some of My Life II.”
And, if you want more Mary after the livestream on the 17th, she has three other intimate shows scheduled for this month including Oakland (11/11), New York City (11/23), and Atlanta (11/25).
