Foxy Brown

Rapper Foxy Brown--currently serving a year in Rikers Island jail for a probation violation--was removed from the general population last week and thrown into solitary confinement. Why? Because she's stupid. The New York Post reports:

The first incident occurred on Oct. 3 while Foxy and another female inmate were headed to the dining hall for a meal in the Rose M. Singer facility, the sources said. They started shoving each other for reasons that were not immediately clear, prompting correction officers to jump in and separate the two before things turned bloody, officials said. The next day, Foxy was verbally abusive toward correction officers and also refused to take a random drug test, the sources said.

After the three cases were reviewed by the Department of Correction, Foxy was sentenced to 76 days in "punitive segregation" and brought to her new digs, where she can spend up to 23 hours alone in her cell, sources said. For an hour each day, she is allowed to see visitors, meet with an attorney, go to the library or exercise in a recreation area away from the general-population inmates. (Source)

76 days in isolation? Wow, I'd never last that long. I'd start chaffing after day 2! Anyways, this is probably just a stunt by Foxy to increase her street cred. Getting sent to jail? Worked for Tupac. Fighting with other hooligans? Worked for 50 Cent. Getting put in isolation? Worked for Charles Manson. So you see, it's all part of the branding process. When she gets out, she'll probably change her name too . . . I like "Detoxy Brown" or "Inmate 45690378."
