Foxy Brown VS Tom Joyner

This is some hot damn mess right here! You've got to read it all before jumping to any conclusions.

First the backstory:

http://www.sohh.com/2011/...ad_to.html

Brooklyn rapper Foxy Brown has reportedly experienced another incident where she was removed from an event and escorted elsewhere due to inexplicable behavior.

According to reports, Brown was recently escorted off a cruise with radio veteran Tom Joyner.

*Another "Brown" is in the news for acting a fool in public. Tom Joyner announced on his show this morning that Foxy Brown was kicked off of his "Fantastic Voyage" cruise and escorted right to a plane. "We put Foxy off the cruise. Let's just say she got put off," Joyner said on his morning show. "You had to really act a fool to get put off." The radio vet and his crew offered no details about what went down. (Eur Web)

Prior to the removal, Foxy had reportedly called into Joyner's radio show.

The conversation ended abruptly, and no one could figure out if the call was accidentally disconnected, or if Foxy had hung up on them. Tom offered somewhat of an explanation, saying it was Foxy who cut the call short: "You know Foxy, after the interview, she called back and she was crying. And I said, 'See, she's gonna be alright.' Well, I was proven wrong." Tom and his fellow hosts did share that, because the ship doesn't have a jail, Foxy was "sent to her cabin" and "locked in[...] but that wasn't enough." Sybil, Tom's co-host, claimed that she was eventually removed from the ship and escorted to a plane. (Necole Bitchie)

This is what TMZ reported.

Passengers on the cruise tell TMZ, Foxy set up a nail appointment on the cruise ship last Monday -- a day after the cruise took off -- and showed up three hours late.

We're told the people at the salon couldn't accommodate her when she rolled around -- and Foxy went completely ballistic.

According to sources, security removed her from the salon and sent her back to her room -- where she remained under supervision until Wednesday ... when the ship dropped anchor somewhere in the Cayman Islands ... and authorities kicked her off.

We're told Foxy -- who performed on board the day before the incident -- was then escorted to an airport and flown home. Royal Caribbean had no comment. Attempts to reach Foxy were unsuccessful.

However, according to USA Today, apparently Foxy Brown was never put off the Cruise because she was scheduled to get off where she got off and there was no altercation at the nail salon.

http://travel.usatoday.co...-/150365/1

Rapper Foxy Brown is fighting back rumors that she was thrown off a cruise ship after flipping out over a missed manicure earlier this month.

And the cruise line is backing up her story - mostly.

Earlier this week, several media outlets reported that Brown had allegedly been kicked off Royal Caribbean's Voyager of the Seas out of Galveston, for going "ballistic" over a missed manicure appointment.

TMZ.com and MTV.com both reported that the rapper was booted from the Tom Joyner Fantastic Voyage Cruise, an annual cruise held for listeners of Joyner's popular radio show, on which Brown was a celebrity guest.

The story went that security removed Brown from the salon and supervised her in her cabin until the ship's arrival in Grand Cayman, where authorities asked her to leave. Joyner fueled the fire during his radio broadcast on March 25, confirming that Brown was asked to leave the vessel.

"We put Foxy off the cruise. Let's just say she got put off," Joyner said, according to MTV.

She told the syndicated news program Inside Edition last night, "I am by far no angel, I'm not, and I don't ever profess to be. I've paid for my mistakes but I'm just not going to pay for Tom Joyner's lies."

Brown said she had always planned to disembark in Grand Cayman, a fact confirmed by Royal Caribbean.

"Ms. Brown disembarked the ship at Georgetown, Grand Cayman, early on March 23 as originally scheduled," the cruise line said in a statement.

Brown also told Inside Edition that there was no incident at the ship's salon, which her publicist, Susan Anderson of Black Star Communications, confirmed to the Cruise Log.

"Foxy Brown did not have an altercation with the nail salon staff," Anderson said. "She did receive a service on the boat and it was to her satisfaction."

Royal Caribbean stated that "there was a situation in the spa. ... Ms. Brown was late to her spa appointment twice and was not happy to have to be rescheduled each time. However the staff were eventually able to accommodate her and completed the service she needed."

Joyner has also admitted that Brown was not kicked off the ship, but did say she had "some problems" while onboard and at the nail salon.

"She did not get put off," he said on his morning show. "That was incorrect. She was scheduled to get off when she got off but she did have some problems while she was on. That much was right."

The situation has definitely left Brown and Joyner at odds.

"She fulfilled her contractual obligation and came off the gig and the person she performed for is spreading false rumors," said Anderson. "She is not the only one appalled by this. Other artists have reached out to us and they are appalled."

Then what the hell did you have to lie for, Tom? confuse

Foxy Brown is none too happy with Tom Joyner's ass and took to Twitter to tell it!

http://www.sohh.com/2011/...dpa_y.html

Brooklyn rapper Foxy Brown has struck back at radio host Tom Joyner after he claimed she was escorted off his cruise due to inexplicable behavior.

Taunting the 61 year-old's age, Brown unleashed a series of tweets addressing what really went down.

"SO I'm up packing my Luby's and Kirkwoods to meet my pumpkin Shyne in Belize for a lil' vacay.......and I get a call that Tom joyner is on the radio disrespecting me....again!," she tweeted March 25th.
"OKAY NOW MR. JOYNER, your old enough to be my grandfather which is why I let your distasteful comments in our interview go.... without putting you in your place."
"Obviously, u equated my silence with weakness. My maturation with passivity. Grandpa you need to learn some respect, I'm the wrong one to romp wit you will get checked!!"
"Lying a**! It was absolutely nothing but LUV from my arrival to the day I left. Hugs from Monie Love and kisses from Dougie Fresh.... I tore the stage down! That's the thanks I get?? U wait til' I leave the ship and then 2 days later your on the air saying negative sh*t!" (Foxy Brown's Twitter)

Told ya! Just a hot damn mess! disbelief

Now pass the popcorn

I knew from the start that I loved you with all my heart.

I love you, Hatrina, but this is a lot to read for two people nobody's ever heard of.

I'm gonna read it, though, and formulate an opinion.

The Cliff Notes version:

Tom Joyner is a Nationally syndicated radio host. Mostly in the urban older school market. Foxy Brown is a lady rapper from the '90's who had some success but more recently has been known showing her ass in public and jumping on people.

Tom Joyner has a cruise for charity, every year called the Fantastic Voyage. Where he has lots and lots of performers, at this point I think the only Black performers that haven't been on that cruise may be Prince, Janet and Whitney.

Anyhoo, Foxy known for tearing some shit up in a beauty salon was rumored to have done so again, on the cruise and was put off the ship. The story hit the mainland and quickly spread. Tom Joyner lied on his radio show and added fuel to that already burning fire.

Foxy didn't like that shit so she had the cruiseline confirm that she was never put off ship but was actually schedule to get off, where she did. When she put Tom on blast, he finally admitted that he lied but that hasn't satisfied Foxy and she's dogging his ass out on Twitter and other performers are on her side.

mr.green

Thanks. I started hittin' the sauce a little early tonight. It's affecting my reading skills.

Serious question, though: Doesn't Joyner's cruise have some scandal associated with it almost every year?

Yeah, something smells fishy there!

At first, he's sitting there and saying they indeed put her ass off, but now that Royal Caribbean is confirming she wasn't, he's back-tracking and saying, "Oh well, she just had a problem originally with something, but that was it!"

It's like they were scared of the "trouble-starting" Foxy rearing her ugly head and overreacted. Even with that happening, why did Tom not have his damn facts straight, I'll never know. Sounds like some shady shit on his part.

I don't think so. At least...I've never heard about anything serious.

I remember last year people were doggin' Prince because he gave Tom some high priced figure for a performance. I kinda figured at the time that he didn't wanna do it anyway. Tom 'an them do keep up a lot of foolishness.

Prince, in you I found a kindred spirit...Rest In Paradise.

Even though Foxy is a hot mess as is, I don't care for Tom Joyner anyway and I don't even listen to his show where he and his staff pick on certain celebrities as if they are all "perfect" or something. I have heard in the past about the drama that goes on, on that ship anyway rolleyes It's like high school drama for the older blk folks.

I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince.

I still don't get why black folks listen to his ass. I hardly listened to black commentators anymore anyways. They all sound too preachy.
