It's
Ya gurl Shaquueeesha,
and I'm reppin
this week in Hip Hop. Let's jump right in..
FOXY UPDATE: She gets a slap on the wrist. Foxy Brown just gets
a warning by a judge that her next probation offense would be her last.
She was allowed to remain free Thursday after she pleaded guilty to
violating probation by leaving New York without permission. Brown was
arrested during a fracas at a beauty supply store in Pembroke Pines,
Fla., on Feb. 15. Police charged her with resisting an officer and simple
battery. Lawyers for the Department of Probation and the Manhattan district
attorney's office urged Manhattan Criminal Court Judge Melissa Jackson
to jail the 27-year-old rapper, whose real name is Inga Marchand. Both,
in effect, called her incorrigible. But Jackson said, "If she pleads
guilty to
leaving
the jurisdiction without permission, I will allow her to continue on probation
with the condition that on the next violation, she's getting resentenced."
I'm going to give her basically what is a third chance," the judge said.
"I'm going to give her one more chance, three strikes and you're out. Basically,
I'll be giving the keys to the jailhouse to Ms. Marchand." "I'm reserving
the right to resentence you to jail for a year," Jackson told Brown. "You
have the key, but that key will be taken away from you in a flash" if the
rapper commits another violation.

KELIS
GET'S ARRESTED. Kelis was arrested early Friday morning
in Miami Beach after screaming racial obscenities at two female Cops
who were posing as hookers. The officers were working an undercover
operation in South Beach, when cops say Kelis started screaming racial
slurs at the women. She continued screaming and rushed toward them,
and had to be restrained by friends, a police report said. According
to the report, Kelis' "actions caused people walking by to stop
and form a crowd. The sidewalk was blocked by the disturbance, causing
people to walk in the street and causing traffic to stop." Kelis
was charged with two misdemeanor charges of disorderly conduct and for
resisting arrest. Damm girl, you repping that "Bossy" track
to the fullest!

RUMOR
CONTROL: We now hearthat Nick Cannon is not a married man
ladies and gentlemen! As of Vegass All-Star weekend, he and Victorias
Secret model Selita Ebanks supposedly tied the knot. In a recent intervie
wwith People magazine, Selita was quick to clear up the rumor by stating,
Im not married, she said. Were just two
young people and were happy. I laugh a lot and he laughs a lot and
I think thats whats important. I support him and he supports
me. So basically I guess they are just doing the naughty..
