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!

She's no c lister. She's way past F's. Pallleeeez! lol She should have gotten 10 years. And in defense to Jane Weidlin, on her worst day, she was more of a somebody than d-brat or d-brut or whatever she calls herself, more like Da Loser. lol

I DONT KNOW Y DA BRAT DID WHAT SHE DID. BUT WHEN SHE IS RELEASED SHE WILL STILL BE BREADED OUT. AS SHE GROWS SPIRITUALLY DURING HER TIME AWAY IM SURE SHE WILL HAVE PLENTY OF SONGS ON HER SHELF. SOMETIMES U GOTTA DO WHAT YOU GOTTA DO. I FEEL IT I WILL PRAY FOR HER NOT CRITICIZE

Jeezle petes...if she was going to cut up someone with a broken bottle, why couldn't it have been Dustin Diamond?

Da Brat knows her way around a studio. She was one of the more talented people to come out of the rap scene in the 1990s. It's too bad she has anger management issues- I am not apologizing for her actions. But she needs to get her act together and I guess prison is where she will do it.

hood rat.................

I actually went to high school with the girl that was assaulted by Da Brat. She had/has a bright future in front of her before Da Brat left her with a permanent facial scar. She was a Atlanta Falcons cheerleader as early as last year. She appeared in an Aaron's commercial and she was about to appear on Tyler Perry's show just to name a few things. I hope her career is not ruined by this.

RE; comment 136: billovesmarcy
Sir; you generalization that "blacks" are racist is rude and offensive, and racist in itself. As a black man with a film production company and a worldwide reputation, I see your comment as racist! My father was a NYC cop, I attended the police academy, and my brother served in the US military. Do "blacks" like us see the law as anything other than the LAW? How ignorant of you to post such a vile comment! The Brat is a joke, but not because she is black, but because she is a loser. Save your racism for your quiet chats with your equally racist friends and colleagues!

Too bad about prison but hopefully Da Brat will come out with a better sense of herself.

Never heard of this Jane person. I watched the video and never seen her before either.
