Drake's mentor Lil Wayne may not have been present for his first Video Music Awards performance but the rookie was not alone. Super-producer Swizz Beatz and R&B diva Mary J. Blige joined the rapper during his performance of 'Fancy' off his debut 'Thank Me Later.' The Swizz Beatz-produced track features a verse from T.I., who was absent following his latest run in with the law ... again. Mary J. took his spot and added some R&B flare to Drizzy's track that pays homage to all the 'Fancy,' fly ladies who spend hours in the salon on their hairstyles.
