Michael Jordan might have been late in showing up but he certainly stole the show at the NBA All-Stars game. His presence around anyone meant that their interaction or exchange of any kind is simply noteworthy. Whatever MJ did or whoever he interacted with or whatever he talked about immediately became the trending incident of the weekend.

Notably, one of the biggest MJ moments at the All-Star weekend was when he and LeBron James hugged after their names were announced on the 75th anniversary of the event.

Michael Jordan with Mary J Blige – MJ adores MJB!

Michael Jordan created yet another headline when he met his old friend Mary J Blige. At the Super Bowl halftime show last week, Mary had performed with the insane lineup of Eminem, Snoop Dogg, 50 Cent, Dr Dre, and Kendrick Lamar. The performance was indeed a big hit and absolutely one to go crazy for.

MJ also praised the performance and showed that he loved the performance by hugging her.

Mary J Blige certainly did not mind the touch from MJ proving the interaction to be completely innocent, as she also posted a picture with him and Vanessa Bryant on her Instagram. Even though this was just a friendly gesture of admiration, Twitter burst up. The fans could not let something like this slide. 

All fun and games as Twitter exploded with jokes and banter towards their interactions

Mary J Blige also performed at the All-Stars halftime.

These are the things that might create rumors and affect the reputation and stature of an athlete or any celebrity. Limits of the banter and sensitivity of the topic involved determine whether it is something to joke about or not. But as long as everything is light hearted and in a humorous way, then these are the things that might even make the entities involved laugh if they get their eye on them.
