Yes. But they made me clairvoyant

Your symptoms are mild --

then surgery may be required, or possibly a hysterectomy.

The uterus.

What's the likelihood of that?

Well, I don't feel comfortable putting a number on it,

but, Ms. Mendez, in my experience,

surgery is something we'll likely have to explore

in the near future.

Ouch. Damn.

Did that hurt? [ Sighs ]

You just shot me full of follicle-inducing hormones

with a 4-inch needle.

Are follicle-inducing hormones more painful than Botox?

And somehow less painful when the goal is

to make me look sick in a Vera Wang.

We're on our way.

I'm gonna make you dinner.

[ Laughter ]

-Let's take a selfie. -Ooh!

Ah!

[ Camera shutter clicks ] [ Laughs ]

Brianna should be here, y'all.

She's not coming back.

Well, the last time I FaceTimed her

she had that effortless beach glow.

It's the sand -- it's a natural exfoliant.

If she comes back, bitch better bring me back some samples.

[ Laughter ]

Wow. If I didn't live it,

I wouldn't believe all this is for us.

My mom saw you guys in concert when she was seventeen

and she always talks about it

like it was the best night of her life.

We watched your "All Rise" video in my Civics class

and I was so excited I came home and showed my mom,

and she said it was the same group

she was always talking about. -[ Chuckles ]

Will you sign this?

[ Laughing ] Of course. Oh, wow!

Oh!

Muffin, I love you, too. Will you sign it, please?

Of course. Thank you.

Thank you.

-Bye, Mom. -Bye.

Can you believe we're just four chicks from Queens

who stood on top of the world for a hot minute?

Anybody else getting teary-eyed with all of this?

-It's nice. -Wait. How did you get Eric's

old main to relinquish the rights?

I told her to let go of the past.

[ Air horn blowing ]

Man: Please give it up for Sophia Chang!

[ Air horn blowing ] [ Cheers and applause ]

Welcome, everybody,

to the official re-release of "Heart of Queens"!

Who feels like a nasty girl tonight?

[ Cheers and applause ]

-Well, I do. -Yas.

Sophia Chang: Well, as a woman in hip-hop,

I can't tell you how much this album meant to me.

I finally felt seen, like I belonged.

Like someone was holding a space for people like me.

And as evidenced by everyone here tonight,

twenty years after it went four times platinum,

it's clear that "Heart of Queens"

inspired generations of women

and has left an indelible mark on hip-hop.

So, thank you,

Jill Da Thrill, Butter Pecan, and XPlicit Lyrics.

[ Cheers and applause ]

So maybe... on this magical evening,

with everyone in such a sentimental and nasty mood,

we can inspire one last performance by the Queens?
