The Foxy Brown Image Takedown

FOXY BOXING Brown
When it comes to celebrity roller coasters, Foxy Brown is like the American Eagle, the rickety giant at Six Flags that has ups and downs but never delivers a smooth ride. The rapper is constantly off-kilter, proclaiming to be 100 percent deaf at a 2005 press conference, and then magically healing in 2006. This announcement came after she was arrested for attacking two manicurists over a $20 fee in 2004, an act that landed her in court last fall with a sentence of three years probation—her fourth arrest in six years.
But the ride gets bumpier. Miss Brown then violated her probation by leaving New York in February 2007, when she apparently threw hair glue at a salon manager in Florida (yeah, really). She then turned herself in again in August when she chucked her BlackBerry at a Brooklyn neighbor, cutting the woman's lip and knocking out a few teeth. So, yes, woman cray-cray.
And now, she's claiming to be with child, which, so far, hasn't been enough to convince a judge to let her out of jail time. Foxy needs to get herself, and her image, under control, and we found the man to help. Howard Bragman of 15 Minutes PR in Los Angeles has dealt with many celebrity breakdowns, and he volunteered his time to help doctor this fox on a hot tin roof.
Foxy Brown, you're in the PR/ER!
