Anita Baker brought fellow songstress Mary J Blige to tears when she surprised her at Blige's 40th birthday party.  The New YorkPost reports that Blige's husband threw her a star-studded, desert-themed bash in New York last week. Guests included Beyonce and husband Jay-Z.  Everything was cool until Baker (a surprise guest) began singing "Caught Up in The Rapture," bringing the birthday girl to tears.  A source commented, "Mary J said growing up in the projects she was lost, and owes her life to being inspired by [that song] and Baker.  Anita got up to toast her and started to sing the song. Mary J began crying and joined in."
