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!

Stop hate n on the Brat. Going to prison is no laughing matter. If you dont like her or have any thing nice to say, you need to look at yourself before you judge. I dont agree or justify with what she did, we all should stand behind her and wish her well. Big shout out for all of the Brat supporters.

wow...
well, let me 1st say that i'm no fan of Da Brat. I enjoy hip-hop, but I have a certain standard that I enjoy and she never really made the hip-hop music that I enjoyed... ok, enough of that.

Re: her personal issues, let's just remember (esp. all the ppl who actually wish her harm -- as if she hurt YOUR feelings by calling Jane a has-been or as if she cut YOUR face -- and think that being super negative & judgemental about this makes them somehow look better), he who is flawless and perfect ALONE can cast stones against others. All of you out there wishing harm to her in jail, wishing her DEAD (are u f*cking serious?!) and all of the rest of the ridiculous comments that have been submitted -- remember: if you were PERFECT, you wouldn't be so f*cking judgemental and negative in the first place, so work on YOUR anger & (possibly) envy issues, lol...

see how that works...?
Da Brat is not your problem.

All right ladies and gentlemen. We weren't there and we don't know what happened. However, she was found guilty in a court of law after the presentation of evidence on both sides. You do not have the right to use a deadly weapon on anyone in this situation. Sounds to me like she got off with a very light sentence.

da who?

68. lilypie99 -
RIP(rest in prison)...B*TCH...AND ALL OTHER HATEFUL People....I'M TALKING MICHAEL VICK...AND ANY ABUSIVE PERSONS!!

Good bye who cares

This a truly sad. Another talented artist has nothing else to prove except making it in prison. Your attitude stinks and I think you need counseling before you really kill someone. As far as saying what is on your mind, tact really would suit you fine. Da Brat, you are known for your hair and giving it straight, now you are known for being truly ignorant and a role model to jail birds. Good luck with that!

That says it. Go-Go to jail. LMAO

good, prison is where she belongs. she's a monster

73. Kendra -
im sure the girl did something to deserve what she got but maybe da brat could have been a little easier on her to avoid all the trouble and jail time.

Da Brat is a great rapper but needs to work on thinking sometimes before she speaks. Jane from the GO-GO's is not a has been. Brat better learn to control her temper in prison or she might be the one to get her face cut.

Please don't ride "da fence" when u KNOW what is wrong IS wrong! We don't HAVE to be THERE to know what happened!! After all, it's the COURT who has decided!! Not us.

Learn from this experience. Represent yourself better to all who listen and see you. I to am from Chicago and we dont have to live up to our gangster history.
