Rapper Foxy Brown, 29, whose real name is Inga Marchand is a free woman after she was released from a New York jail to much fanfare on Friday afternoon. She has served 8 months of a 12-month sentence at Riker's Island Prison for violating her probation by manhandling two manicurists. She walked free from jail on Friday and was greeted by loud cheers from the crowds of fans who had responded to her earlier request and gathered outside the notorious penitentiary to give her a rapturous welcome. Brown called on her fans to wait for her in the parking lot of the correctional facility, wearing T-shirts bearing her name and waving banners with her image plastered on them. Wearing a brown leather jacket, black halter neck and a cream bandana, Brown spent some time talking and hugging her fans, frequently telling them, "I love y'all!" before climbing into her waiting car to be driven home. The scene was captured on film for use in her upcoming reality VH1 TV show, which shows her adjusting to life on the outside. She also has a new album, "Brooklyn's Don Diva," due for release on May 13.
