Roided up??

Posted by Bossip Staff

Mary J 50 Cent Timbaland

Times Union, a newspaper serving Albany and Saratoga, New York is reporting that some non-athletes may be involved in steroid use:

The names of R&B music star Mary J. Blige, along with rap artists 50 Cent, Timbaland and Wyclef Jean, and award-winning author and producer Tyler Perry, have emerged in an Albany-based investigation of steroids trafficking that has already rocked the professional sports world. Information has surfaced recently showing those stars are among tens of thousands of people who may have used or received prescribed shipments of steroids and injectable human growth hormone in recent years. Law enforcement officials have said they have no evidence in their sprawling multistate probe that customers, including Blige or other entertainers, violated any laws. Instead, they are targeting anti-aging clinics, doctors and pharmacists who prescribed the drugs. For many celebrities, the lure of hormonal drugs is their supposed, unproven anti-aging effects.

Records shared with the Times Union and information from several cooperating witnesses on Long Island indicate Blige and other stars were shipped prescribed human growth hormone or steroids — sometimes under fictitious names — at hotels, production studios, private residences, an upscale Manhattan fitness club and through the Long Island office of Michael Diamond, a chiropractor affiliated with the celebrities.

SMH. I guess we all know why Timbaland has been heavily rockin the tank tops lately.

    first

    Damn!…50 still looks good without a shirt (from the neck down).

    I believe that a lot of celebs use steroids; not necessarily those mentioned.


  3. We all knew 50 was roided up, but I was shocked when CNN revealed that Mary J and Wyclef were on the list. Mary is a stallion in the booty and thigh area, but she didn’t get carried away in the arm area so I think it worked well for her.

  4. paychexx

    is this a crime? and it aint helpin them *****s rap better. man they hate rich black folks! peace

  5. philly*meek

    damn!! (whisper)”second”

    ay yo dats crazy….why roids though? i know theres something out there in china,africa,or india(or wherever) that can make husky without having to use that *****.

  6. Lady Architect

    that’s wack…they looking to tear down any successful rich blk person…soon they’ll be saying they suspect Oprah…white people just mad cause we have black people making money and the fact that they don’t age well like we do. How about they go searching those white football players and muscle men that be pulling truck and tractors….investigate them….and I still don’t understand how Britney spears and Lindsey Lohan get to walk around knowing that they be on those e pills and stuff…its forbidden for steroid use but not exstacy

  7. Vito

    50’s tough *****y ***** looks like he’s using something.

  8. tj

    When are they going to take down Serena? You mean to tell me Mary J Blige is roided up but Serena is clean? SMH


  9. lol timb is crazy roided up, why would mary need those though? well I hope they don’t try and throw them in jail like they did marion jones

  10. tj

    Now they need to take down Serena. You mean to tell me Mary J Blige is roided up but Serena is clean? SMH

  11. Ibn

    WOW timberland on roids who would of thunk it…Black people dont need anti-aging things do they?

  12. wtf

  13. I ain’t surprised.

    A new spin on celebrity Gossip:

  14. For those ready to charge their race cards, don’t forget that a big, loud row was made about Sly Stallone’s arrest in Australia last year when steroids and HGH were found on him. He practically opened up the probe on athletes and entertainers. Not everything is black and white. Dumb people come in all colors.

    Mysparazzi


  15. Timbo yeah but 50 and Mary doubt it….It’s clear Mary works out and before getting shot 50 was that size so it’s not far fetched that the brother did some working out to look that good

  16. The One

    So everyone who works out is on steriods now?! In my opinion it is their bodies and if they want to die younger to look better while they are alive it is their choice. I am not saying it is a smart choice, but its their choice.

  17. PrettyMissSunshine

    Good Morning all!!!!

    As for this non-sense, who cares. I agree with lady architect about Lindysey Lohan and Britney Spears. These teo idiots were caught with *****e, driving while under the influence, x’ed up and everything else and these losers aren’t getting any jail time or investigated. I tell you, it still doesn’t matter how much money you have when you are of a certain color. Mistreatment and injustice will still remain. That’s crazy!!! The only white person on that list was eminem, who is offically black since we gave him the “you can say thw word *****” p*****. What the hell is going on? :-(

  18. ripped

    Don’t think its a big deal if they did. They don’t have to sign contracts like sports figures stating they won’t use performance enhancing drugs. NOt sure about the “its because they are black angle” although it could be. They are on Roger Clemens ***** pretty tough and he’s white and very much loved as a sports figure. However, I agree that Lynsey Lohan and the others who use drugs should have faced tougher penalties. I think most major stars will get away with it though. Money talks regardless of what color you are.

  19. ShaQuita Johnson

    Timbaland is the poster boy for steroids. I am SO not surprised. Tyler Perry, though? Who would have thought Ma’Dear would use steroids? LOL.

  20. PrettyMissSunshine

    And don’t get me wrong I am the last one to play the race card, but some things just needs to be pointed out.

  21. Black to tha Bone

    We the black folks have scientific proof of better muscle density than other races so why ***** up on dangerous drugs? Just hit the gym lazy SOBs. LOL

  22. Bones Jordan, Paige's man

    @ Lady Architect, I agree but then again, Sylvester Stallone did get popped in Australia, not the U.S. I don’t know the details of his situation but it does seem racially motivated but my question to all yall is this…………. when are we going to wake up and realize the majority of whites hate us in this country and would love to see us ALL *****ed up dead, or in jail. They don’t got nothing but hate for us black folk. ***** em.

  23. weezy

    What no WP got caught with this?

  24. Lady Architect

    very true bones…..thats why I hate when blk people do stupid things like buy guns (TI), lie about drug use (Marion Jones),tax fraud (Wesley Snipes), dog fighting (Mike Vick) and a whole slew of other things knowing that white people are just waiting for that moment to take us down….and we give them every right to do so with some of the dumb things we do.


  25. I really hope that it’s not Mary but someone close to her ie Kendu Isaacs that is doing this. I felt really disappointed to hear her name when I wrote this post last night.

  26. 6 Figgas aka Knotx

    Who gives a *****? Even if it’s true, not one of people on that list have awe-inspiring pysiques, so they wasted their time and money. 50’s a lil’ bit jacked, but still no bigger than the average gym rat. Timbo needs to lay off the juice and step up his fat-burnin’ game. He looks like a chubby monkey.

  27. Fit-n-Fab

    MJB – I don’t believe it! I work out 4-5 days per week and & I have very toned arms, abs, legs, etc.

    …Mary looks the same…she works out…

    …”Law enforcement officials have said they have no evidence in their sprawling multistate probe that customers, including Blige or other entertainers, violated any laws”…

    *****DAMN Shame to put names on a list without having evidence***

  28. TREAZURE

    Mary?

  29. Beeyah!

    50 looks roided up. All those emotional outbursts and he has man *****ays in that pic too.

  30. ripped

    I read a lot of women like low doses of steroids, because they are anti aging.


  31. Mary J Blige??!!! Roided up??!!!

    No, she ain’t.

    http://www.theblackactor.com

  32. DADDYO

    Well, MJB has increased her sales over her past two CD’s. If you look at the numbers, that’s probably when she started using roids. As for 50, he stated strong, but his last album flopped compared to his previous two releases. I look for him to get back on the juice hard for his next release. I’ve heard that roid use helps R&B singers more than it does Rappers, which I think is evident when you take a hard look at Mary J. :) :) :)

  33. aqueenwaits

    WHO CARES?????? what does that really have to do with anything? there’s not a law against movie stars or singers regarding steroids usage? And you’re absolutely right Lady Architect, these Mr. Man Types are attempting to do ANY and EVERYTHING to bring the black successfuls down.

  34. Lady Architect

    I think these stars should take out a cl***** action lawsuit for defamation of character…hope I’m saying all this correct…if you have law background then you can correct me if I’m wrong…but how are they going public about suspecting people with 0 evidence?…Did they pick these names out of a hat? And what’s the difference between using steroids for anti-aging and Botox?…Isn’t botox a steroidal enhancement?….I hope these people being accused get good lawyers and do research.

  35. Dalia

    @ 6 Figgas aka Knotx:

    Awww, hell naw! I know you didn’t come down on my man Timbaland! *****ody talks about my man like that.

    Also, y’all leave MJB alone. As for 50, you can tear his ***** up. I don’t like him…I respect his business savvy, but I don’t like him.

    And if these folks did take ‘roids. it’s on them healthwise. It’s not like it’s going to make MJB and 50 sing or rap better or make Timbaland produce more hits.

    This investigation is bogus crap!

  37. Shandra Moore

    people, steroids can also be used for endurance [which mary would need to stay up and focused on those concerts, and hell, that new song of hers, you can't tell me she didn't right that roided up] and timbaland, well that’s self evident – and 50 would need it for the energy in order to work out as much as he does – wyclef, now, i can’t quite figure out how it’s worked for him nor can i for tyler perry but i can see it ..

  38. Just Sit And Be Pretty

    LOL, wouldn’t it be funny if in fact it was the real roided up MJB on Bossip? Maybe I was the victim of “roid rage” when her stuff was kicking in…:-)

    Seriously, I doubt she was on roids, while she’s lost weight, she’s more curvy than muscle-bound…like say Serena.

  39. Dalia

    @ Shandra Moore:

    LMAO!!!

  40. Mo'Ree

    WTF I was just scanning the article for LL! HA

  41. Blacksmith

    I sure hope they didn’t use. The problem I have is that now, even more people will *****ume that anyone who has a decent amount of muscle m***** is using. That’s just false. You can make good gains if you eat properly and train properly. Drugs are not needed. It’s a shame when people just throw your name into the ring with no evidence. The article in the NY Post said there was no evidence that they USED it.

  42. Saucy

    I would be shocked if MJB was using ‘roids. However, if Serena were on that list I wouldn’t be surprised.

  43. PaigeyWaigey **I got a Jones in my Bones** BONES #1 Stunna!!

    Okay this was shocking to me..I guess I expect it from atheletes but singers and rappers? I just *****umed like most people they just workout like crazy…doesn’t seem like something they would need to resort to…but I’m probably wrong..wish I wasn’t though, I would hope that if nothing else they just looked good because they can afford to have a trainer unlike the rest of us..Oh well.. I don’t think it’s a black thing..I think those rappers are just targets because they are so ripped….Why isn’t LL on that list? He’s the most ripped out of all of them…


  44. mary was the only shocking name to me. I have always suspected 50, Busta, Timbaland, and Dre to be roided up.

    I heard the roids really shrivles up a mans uh, magic stick. does anyone know if that’s true?


  45. @justsit…Yeah I agree MJB? NOT!…..Tyler Perry, now that’s funny…..Bossip news is slow that bad huh?


  46. @SOuthernBelle…LMMAO!….yeah I heard that too but never knew if it was true, I could beleive it!..

    50’s & Timbaland’s bodies is perfect I really don’t like to see a man any bigger than that really, after that it starts to be a bit much….besides that they start to get too much into themselves and not into their relationships..


  47. Now Marion Jones!..So SAAAAAADDDDDDDDDD!, but they should know as black atheletes when the lime light is on it’s on, ya feel me…6 months 4 roid use!..6days is 2much for jail…..

  48. Mary J Blige

    I have spoken to my lawyers and I will be taking action against this damaging witch hunt. I just got off the phone to my spokeswoman, Karynne Tencer, and I have informed her to dismiss these false allegations.

    How dare they bring my name into this mess. My 4 pack and biceps are all natural.

    HATERS FALL BACK T ONCE

    MJxx

  49. Shandra Moore

    sorry Mary but i stand by my statement – that song Just Fine is just too fast, especially for you, and i see muscle definition on you so i got’sto believe you let kena kukunua kendu inject you – i know you trying to stay young to compete with these young chics but you and i know you and tim sho’nuff used some roids :)

  50. cocoa

    50’s body looks like just plain working out. he has been working out since being shot. he has always been big. timbaland just blew up over night. as for mj….no way!!! now if you would have said serena and maybe ciara i would say maybe, but mj does not look all roided up. but who knows.

  51. jazzyphile

    Mary J’s head is gettin’ kinda big ala Barry Bonds, but it hard to tell with that blond wig on.

  52. toosexy

    ok, I am not sure about the others,but timberland looks like he is on something it looks like he has roid rage or some , he looks a damn fool he needs to lay off of them, he is on some!!!

  53. babyboybarela

    Hell nah, 50 was not that size before he got shot you idiot, they gave him steroids to recooperate faster from the gun shot wound to the face………. Dre is obviously on roids, Tim as well, and LL COOL J, yeah he’s been on roids for quite a while… i ain’t surprised if Mary J. Blige is either….

  54. binary star

    I know Snoop ain’t on that list.

  55. ABC

    Quite possibly the people on the list because they received them from the same source or affliated sources.

  56. Eric London

    Well what do yall expect!?!?!? Remember back in the day when Mary had madd attitude and would whoop a hoes ***** at the drop of a dime for looking at her the wrong way…..She keeping in shape in new ways now….im happy for her…The way she used to scrap, Michael Vick would have had her tossed her in the ring and bet the FARM my nig lol. J/K Im bored at work, i really do love Mary and hope this hater fodder goes away. BUT REALLY…Wyclef? and Tyler Perry? Where are their bodies at?

  57. Curly Fries

    ^^^^ LOL@ Eric London. You are a fool! BWAHAHAHA!!

  58. Richard

    The steroids contrary to popular belief have been prescribed for years. It’s athletes using them to enhace performance that get’s a baf rap. These were PRESCRIBED hormones.

  59. Richard

    HGH Human Growth Hormone and the new steroids used to be prescribed for injury.

    The feds are targeting anti aging clinics because they are trying to prosecute policy. The only thing the government really knows about steroids is they WORK!!

    The road rage and ***** shrinking are myths. These side effects dealt with the steroids used 30 years ago, which were animal steroids and not designed for human use.


  60. 50 and Timbaland = no surprise

    Mary = wouldn’t have guessed it, but it is possible

    I can’t imagine Tyler and Wyclef using it. It has nothing to do with their image and everything to do with their complete lack of roid use signs. Maybe they were getting them for their friends.

  61. dezeNuts

    yeah, that haitian sensation sure nuff ain’t using them for hisself – but then maybe that’s how he was able to sing in that fake jamaican accent with .. mary in call 911!! wow, makes sense to me, they both be on that stuff!

  62. Tiny

    how U doin’ curtis? hmmm :mad:

  63. and another one.......

    @Tiny my thoughts exactly – and Timbo how u doin? They look like greased up jail house bullies. MJB keep making it rain on them hoes girl!

  64. Shawn08

    I guess they’re making roids seem like only blacks use it…like they did with crack and heroin, but only that this for the black and rich….SMH….Shame on the media!

    Plus I can’t see Tyler Perry taking roids… I can’t even think of wanting to eva see him naked…

  65. MJB's #1 Fan

    Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.

    This can’t be true about Mary. It’s not true. It’s not true. It’s not true.

  66. and another one.......

    I think that is the gayest pic of 50 ever.

  67. truself

    STOP LOOKIN TO THESE CELEBS LIKE THEY ARE REAL INSPIRATIONS!!!!

    ALL THE ***** YOU SEE IS PHONY AND IS FOR THE CAMERA’S. I HATE WHEN YA’LL SAY OH THIS PERSON LOOKS GREAT OR HAS NOTHAD COSMETICS DONE. HOW DO YOU KNOW.

    GIVE THE CHICK STANDING NEXT TO YOU HER PROPS NOT A BUNCH OF PHONIES YOU ONLY SEE ON TV.

  68. diamond20

    Vic Beckham, I agree with you sweetie…

    What people do in the dark comes to light! Everybody is going down in Hollywood….

  69. Tiny

    @binary star – u’s a fool! you KNOW he ain’t evah gone be on dat list! :shaking my big head:

  70. NubianGoddez

    Mary? Tyler gay ***** Perry? plucked chicken looking Wyclef. now the others I can see cauze their *****es looked roided up. but Tyler gay ***** Perry is as about in shape as Biggi Smalls (may his soul rest in peace in pork chop heaven) and that picture of 50 cents could he look any gayer lol yes that picture he let some lying ***** gay ***** convince him to take on the cover of a magazine with tight ***** looking shirt with black tie or scarf blowing behind him with plucked looking eyebrows. the only steroid Mary is using is that tired ***** blond wig that just won’t die. now that ***** is on some serious roids!!

  71. tlatrice (Take That Pic Of Lil Kim Down!)

    take the pic of lil’ kim’s cooch down!

  72. QB Mountain

    Why does Tyler Perry need steroids again? That’s a soft looking brother.


  73. If its not the sports players it the rappers. Just say it…we don’t like you *****s making money! Vote OBAMA!


  74. No wonder why Wyclef can do backflip on stage!

  75. playlist

    this is the dumbest ***** i’ve ever heard

    i’d much rather hear about the list of skin-bleaching sellouts like rihanna

  76. bobbie

    WHATS THE POINT………I DONT THINK ROIDS WILL HELP AN ARTIST SING OR WRITE RHYMES……..BUT THEY WILL HELP YOU HIT 30 HOMERUNS IN A SEASON………….ANOTHER SICK WAY TO SHIFT THE ATTENTION TO HIPHOP

  77. Bwana Umboko

    I think Mary J injected into her lips. Pretty full on the lippy there! Still bangin’ though…

  78. TruthSaya

    I believe it about Tim & Fiddy… but I don’t really believe it about Mary!

  79. Cherry

    MJB – I don’t believe it! I work out 4-5 days per week and & I have very toned arms, abs, legs, etc.

    …Mary looks the same…she works out…

    …”Law enforcement officials have said they have no evidence in their sprawling multistate probe that customers, including Blige or other entertainers, violated any laws”…

    *****DAMN Shame to put names on a list without having evidence***

    ——————————————

    STRONGLY AGREE THIS IS BULL ***** AS SOON AS ALL THOSE WHITE PEOPLE START *****ING THEY ALWAYS WANNA LOOK TO THE HIP HOP INDUSTRY 4 SOME BULL***** & MARY J. & TYLER PERRY TOTALLY FALSE DEFINITELY DONT BELIEVE THAT *****….THEY NEED TO SUE THESE *****S.

  80. none-ya

    Where are the white stars list??? *****ing ‘home of the free’ indeed!!!!

  81. Sickofit

    What is the purpose for this? Steroids are not helping their careers at all so if they want to use it…..let them, it’s there bodies.

    If Mary J is on anything, please send me a case of it. She is aging very well.

    Also, WTF is Janet on? I know she is on something loosing 60 pounds in a few months. Yeah, send me a case of that to.


  82. I don’t think Mary is using steroids. But fifty and timbo look a little suspect. There’s something weird about the eyes. Timbo’s eyes are always bucked. Not to mention the roid rage incident which lead to his arrest. This man is clearly suffering from side effects. As for fifty he’s looking like ten cents in the crotch area.

  83. DeeCent

    50 is all natural…mmmm mmm mmmmm, his body is crazy hot
