Foxy Brown appeared on The Mo'nque Show on BET last night. First off let me say she is looking very healthy....real thick bwoy, with long weave flowing past her rear. She walked on to loud cheers from the audience. When she greeted Mo'nique and guest Pam Grier she had tears streaming down her face and it was an evidently emotional moment.

I hear this is T.I's next single. It's called "Live Your Life" and features Rihanna on the hook.
