Rapper Foxy Brown pleaded guilty to assault charges on Monday, after she got into an altercation over a $20 manicure.

It appears that Brown, 26, whose real name is Inga Marchand, was charged for a manicure that she never got. The fight broke out when Brown “kicked one employee and smacked a second in the face on Aug. 29, 2004, in an argument over payment for a manicure at Bloomie Nails,” reports MSNBC.

Brown, who showed up late due to a hurricane in Jamaica where she performed, pleaded guilty. She returned to the courtroom and tried to persuade Judge Melissa Jackson to let her reverse her plea. She explained that she had no time to think about it thoroughly and rushed into it too fast. The judge wasn’t lenient at all and told her the guilty plea is still the same.

Brown was able to get a plea deal, which consists of three years probation, anger management classes, monthly reports to the police, and drug testings. Hey, it beats prison.

The case was expected to be resolved in December, but wasn’t after the judge was displeased with Brown’s plea statement. Apparently, Brown did not take enough responsibility in the dispute.

Brown is now scheduled to appear in court on October 23 for sentencing.
