The Queen of R & B got shut down by the Oscars, Mary J. Blige didn’t hear her name called when nominations for the 84th Annual Academy Awards were announced yesterday. The discouraged singer took to Twitter to address the snub.

Mary J. Blige says she’s sad that her song “The Living Proof” from the film “The Help” didn’t pick up an Oscar nomination on Tuesday. The R&B superstar was on “Live with Kelly” yesterday promoting the movie as a co-host with the Kelly Ripa.

Mary sent out a tweet after the nominations were announced saying that it “feels like the Academy is being mean” by only nominating two songs.

Mary added that she remains “thankful” to all the “true fans.” “The Living Proof” was looking to be a nominee for Best Original Song.

”The 84th Academy Awards will take place on February 26th and air live on ABC.  Here’s her  live performance of “The Living Proof on Live with Kelly.
