NEW YORK, NEW YORK — Foxy Brown is accused of skipping a performance scheduled during New York Fashion Week. Yet, supposedly, she showed up after the fact to collect the check.
According to TMZ, 40-year-old Inga “Foxy Brown” Marchand got the bag. Yet, she allegedly didn’t do the work for it. The source states that, on Sunday, September 9, Brown was scheduled to perform two songs at a party for LaQuan Smith, a Black, luxury designer for women’s clothing.
You could probably imagine party attendees were excited to see someone from old school rap — especially a female emcee — gracing the event. One hour passed. Two hours passed. Three. Four.
Still no Foxy…allegedly.
And if this is true, while some celebrities like to make a statement by being casually late, Brown was just straight-up “tardy.”
FOXY’S GRAND ENTRANCE
Reportedly around 2:30 a.m., when most everyone had already left the NYFW soiree, Foxy finally arrived. However, not to perform. She supposedly just came to collect the other half of her check. According to TMZ, Brown “didn’t sing a single note.”
NOTE: She’s not a singer anyway, but that’s beside the point.
The source states that Brown was given $5,000 as an advance and was promised another $5,000 after the show.
Surely, the look on the organizer’s face was one of disbelief when Foxy waltzed through the door like the “Bill Na Na.”

But now, promoters are demanding that Brown return the funds. Essentially, they paid for a service…not her appearance.
The source says that if Foxy doesn’t return the money, they’re taking her to court over the matter.
AND OF COURSE…
Social media is having a field day with this story.
Since reportedly Foxy Brown collected an actual check, and not cash, commenter Delilah Benson mentions:
“But can’t you cancel a check… like the same way her career been canceled since like 03?”
Wooooooooow.
Likewise, there are several others who feel similarly and have also voiced their thoughts via the social media platform. However, admittedly, some of their comments might crack your sides.
For instance, Twitter user Liu Kang tweeted the following visual of “Foxy skipping out on the concert” after cashing out.

Yet, as Koodarius — another Twitter user — mentions, there are two sides to every story. Unfortunately, Brown hasn’t responded regarding this allegation. So for now, we only know this particular side. And it doesn’t look good.. In other tweets, social media commenters size up Foxy in contrast to Lil’ Kim and Remy Ma. One even tossed Jacki-O into the mix concerning their past beef.

In the spirit of femal rappers fighting, I wanna flashback to the time Jacki-O fought Foxy Brown and had this to say. pic.twitter.com/xz7kByjVHi

All in all, this story is rather inconvenient for Foxy Brown. And it comes just days after she celebrated her birthday. Assuredly, this isn’t how she’d want to remember turning 40.
She may now be a “cougar,” but that doesn’t mean she has to hunt the check like this.
