FOXY BROWN |
She may call herself “Don Diva,” but the singer intends to ditch her in-your-face attitude and tell jurors that she’s really just a mama’s girl who’s been trying to exorcise the nasty demons of her bad-girl past and now lives in her Prospect Heights brownstone with her mother.
The sassy singer, whose real name is Inga Marchand, will flatly deny that a stare-down with neighbor Arlene Raymond escalated into a profane tirade and ended with her provocatively mooning the woman, the sources said.
She faces felony charges from the July 21 incident.
The latest legal case against the platinum-selling singer has already taken its toll on her creative energies, a source close to Foxy said.
“Foxy can’t even sleep at night. This is truly a nightmare,” said the source.
Brown was accompanied by her lawyer Salvatore Strazzullo, who declined to comment.
She left the courthouse a few hours later after testifying before the grand jury.
Brown said she hoped justice would be done.
“Today was about telling the truth and my focus was on trying to be exonerated,” she said.
In a 2007 clash with Raymond, Foxy threw her Blackberry at the neighbor. The grand jury is hearing testimony today on charges that the July incident violated a restraining order against Foxy stemming from that 2007 clash which bars her from having any contact with Raymond.
The feisty singer is expected to release a new album, “Black Roses,” this fall – a long-delayed recording that has been six years in the making. Brown’s most recent album was the May 2008 “Brooklyn’s Don Diva,” an independent release that briefly hit No. 2 on Billboard’s rap albums chart.
