Foxy Brown: No Baby Behind Bars


It turns out the only thing Foxy Brown is expecting to do in jail is promote a record.

Contrary to the buzz set off by the Chyna Doll rapper's own attorneys, Brown is not three months pregnant, according to her manager, Chaz Williams.

"And to the pregnancy rumors, this is the official statement: She is not pregnant," Williams said Wednesday while announcing a Nov. 20 release date, bumped up from Dec. 4, for Brown's fifth studio album, Brooklyn's Don Diva.

Brown is currently behind bars at Rikers Island on New York's East River, her home for the next year for violating her probation in connection with her 2004 throw-down in a Manhattan nail salon.

"This is just a temporary situation," Brown, whose real name is Inga Marchand, said in a statement. "I made my bed and have no problem lying in it. My will is steady. What doesn't kill me will only make me stronger."

Manhattan Criminal Court Judge Melissa Jackson sentenced Brown to a year in jail last Friday, saying she hoped the hip-hop star would learn from this experience and "never again have to stand in a court of law."

Hours before Jackson laid down the law, Brown was indicted for felony assault and criminal possession of a weapon for allegedly smacking Arleen Raymond, her neighbor of 14 years, in the face with her BlackBerry on July 31.
