Da Brat Headed To Da Slammer

Posted Fri Aug 22, 2008 4:25pm PDT by Lyndsey Parker in Reality Rocks

Well, it's just been announced that Da Brat--old-skool rap icon, BFF of Mariah Carey, lone witness to the Mariah/Nick nuptials, and star of such reality gems as The Surreal Life, Celebrity Fit Club, and Celebrity Rap Superstar--will spend the next three years imprisoned not in a Surreal Life McMansion with Chyna Doll and Adrianne Curry or in a fitness bootcamp with Dustin Diamond, but in an actual prison.

Not sure which is worse, reallly...

In all seriousness, Da Brat's bratty ways have finally been punished, after she allegedly used the broken end of a rum bottle to slash the face of a waitress/nemesis at Jermaine Dupri's Studio 72 nightclub in Georgia. Brat was sentenced today by an Atlanta judge on charges of felony aggravated assault.

This isn't the first time Da Brat's been in trouble with da law...but really, any glimpse of some of her hot-headed scenes in past reality shows would have given the prosecution in this particular case all the ammo they needed to secure a conviction. See here:

DA BRAT'S 'SURREAL LIFE' SPAT WITH GO-GO JANE WIEDLIN

Da Brat may be bratty, but one thing's certain: She sure is good TV. Someone please give this celebreality C-lister her own pre-prison reality show, just like BET did with Lil' Kim! Please!

Poor Da Brat!. She keeps talking about Jane being a has been, but at least all genres know who she is and she is only popular and known to the hip hop crowd. Better luck with your popularity behind bars.

Holy cow,

What tha heck.
How the hell did this happen.
First you here she's at a wedding, than at the studio and now on her way to jail?

Lord have mercy (3 YEARS for allegedly, as in trying to, cut some ones face off!)

YIKES, America's law sure is thuf

haha! Mad props to a sister though. I bet b*tches won't mess with her!

Just another stupid person off the streets, no great loss. Just remember like Sandra Gillespie stated " it could be woser ".

Actually I have to agree with my girl Da Brat. I still don't have a clue who this Jane woman is. With that said I still think she got what she deserves. You don't go around slashing peoples faces and then call yourself a mature woman.

well at least they dont have to turn her out

ABOUT TIME A STAR IS GOING TO JAIL FOR A CRIME THEY COMMIT. SHE SHOULD ALSO PAY THE PERSON SHE ATTACK SOME MONEY. SHE CAN NOW HAVE ALL THE WOMEN SHE WANT SHE SHOULD FEEL RIGHT AT HOME.

31. Lambsquad 17 - Sat Aug 23, 2008 4:22pm PDT

Yo,

Y'all kidding me.
Da Brat isn't straight??!.
And there's a logical explanation why Mariah Carey got married G.

P.S. Y'all shouldn't b. so cruel to the crazy but yet o so talented celebrities.

Peace out ... Haters!
For real this time

34. TonyW - Sat Aug 23, 2008 4:24pm PDT

35. Robertn - Sat Aug 23, 2008 4:31pm PDT

Thank goodness for a justice system that works. Da Brat in The Big House= Justice

man she is homily

I like the way the writer uses the word DA poking fun at a small part of black culture and I like the ignorant comments made by people who would love to be at the 'lynching.' Why not be upset at the housing market execs who put the very U.S. economy in jeaporady? The most dangerous people are the ones who have authority and abuse authority. Nobody is smart enough or don't care about those significant happenings.
You guys are number one, with the middle finger!

this is what happens when butch female rappers who think they're all that and then some get their payday!! i hope she gets hers in prison. Eventually the system will catch up to you--esp if you do wrong. she talks too much too.

Another Rap artist going to prison. Hope kids don't look up to these guys or girl rap artists. How's the rock song go? Another one bites the dust!
