Most people, if they were in Foxy Brown's situation – arrested for smashing a phone into her neighbours face and the subject of more police time than a thousand serial killers – would probably try to keep their nose clean.
But that's not Foxy Brown's style. Even though Foxy Brown faces jail for assaulting her neighbour mere months – which itself was the latest in a long line of illegally angry acts – she's still keen on flouting the law at every possibility. Last week Foxy Brown was stopped by police for ignoring a stop sign in her car because she was talking on her phone. On a suspended licence. That's bad enough, but then Foxy Brown tried to give the police a bunch of false details. Foxy Brown must be terribly upset with herself now – not because she was caught driving illegally and lying to police, but because she wasted a perfectly good opportunity to pick her car up and furiously hurl it into the policeman's face; the first time she hasn't over-reacted to anything in a needlessly violent way since 2002.
Foxy Brown is probably our favourite female rapper of all time after that girl from Mis-Teeq who sounds like a puppy barking at a rape alarm, and it's not because we particularly care for her music, either. No, the reason we like Foxy Brown so much is that we're scared she'll knock on our door one night and give us a knuckle sandwich if we say we don't like her. Because Foxy Brown, you see, has previous.
Whether she's punching nail salon workers over a $20 bill or throwing such a gigantic temper tantrum in a beauty supplies shop that a full-sized policeman literally had to rugby-tackle her, Foxy Brown is not a woman to be messed with – unless you're a gang of prostitutes ordered to attack her by her pimp ex-boyfriend, but even if you do that Foxy Brown will deny it ever happened. So far Foxy Brown has managed to avoid jail for her mistakes, but lately things have started to stick.
For example, Foxy Brown has just been charged with assault after apparently walloping her neighbour in the face with her Blackberry. But now, just top things off, Foxy Brown has been caught by police ignoring a stop sign in her car. While talking on her mobile phone. With a suspended licence. And then lying about her name to the police. The Washington Post reports:
Brown… was driving a sport utility vehicle on Wednesday when she was stopped for talking on a handheld cell phone and failing to stop at a stop sign, police told The Record of Bergen County. After a check showed the SUV's registration had been suspended, the 27-year-old rapper gave officers a variation of her real name and a date of birth that was a year off, authorities said. When a search for the name she gave turned up no records, the officers asked her again for the information, and she gave her correct name and date of birth, authorities said. The officers then learned that Brown's license was suspended, and she was taken to police headquarters, where she was issued seven traffic tickets.
Foxy Brown is due in court to face this new pile of trouble early next month, and surely this will be enough to convince Foxy Brown to lie low and stay out of trouble for a while. We guess we'll discover if Foxy Brown has taken our advice when we start to hear stories about Foxy Brown catching a glimpse of herself looking at herself funny in the bathroom mirror, then smashing six chairs over her head, bottling herself in the face and throwing herself out of her bedroom window.

Foxy is a mess! We have been discussing her recent legal problems and her newly anounced pregnacy over at Highbrid Nation. What is wrong with her? Does she think being pregnant will keep her out of jail!? and to think, I bought her first album just off the strength of the album cover, lol
