Me: Have you heard about the whole musician steroid scandal?

Me: But the reason i mention it is cause apparently Mary J would have her packages delivered to her under the name Marlo Stanfield.
Whit: As in the Wire?
Me: Yep.
Whit: What do steroids do for MJB's singing?
Whit: She's pretty buff, but still.
Me: I'm not sure why she needs them.
Whit: Oh no, are they going to take away her Grammys now?
