NEW YORK — Rapper Foxy Brown has been indicted on charges of violating an order of protection stemming from a 2007 confrontation with her neighbor in New York City.
Prosecutors say Brown violated the order in July by screaming at neighbor Arlene Raymond before bending over, baring her buttocks at Raymond and showing her underwear while shouting an obscenity.
The 31-year-old Brown was issued the order of protection after pleading guilty in 2008 to menacing Raymond with her cell phone.
The two had been in a dispute over Brown blasting her car stereo outside their Brooklyn building.
The indictment announced Friday charges Brown, whose real name is Inga Marchand, with criminal contempt in the second degree. She could face up to one year in jail.
A lawyer for Brown did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

The 'Halo' singer ' who is married to hip-hop superstar Jay-Z ' says she's always had good friendships with females and thinks that has played a big part in her never falling for the wrong type of man.
She said: 'I think I am a feminist in a way. It's not something I consciously decided I was going to be; perhaps it's because I grew up in a singing group with other women, and that was so helpful to me. It kept me out of so much trouble and out of bad relationships. My friendships with my girls are just so much a part of me that there are things I am never going to do that would upset that bond. I never want to betray that friendship because I love being a woman and I love being a friend to other women. ' think we learn a lot from our female friends ' female friendship is very, very important.'
While her personal relationships are very important to her, Beyonce admits she sometimes finds it hard to balance everything in her life.
She told You magazine: 'For me, balance is always really hard to find. I love so many different things, and to have the discipline to turn certain things away and focus on one thing at a time so that I can give it 100 per cent is really hard. 'Probably the biggest challenge in my life is time ' making sure I have time to be a wife, to be a singer, to be a songwriter, to be an actor and still have time for my clothing line and now for my perfume. I am like any other woman who has a child, who has a husband, who has a job. I think it's the hardest thing about being a woman because we have so many responsibilities.'

Video After The JumpAs previously reported here a few days ago. Tila Tequila was attacked at this year's 'Gathering Of The Juggalos' festival.
Tila is seen in this video footage trying to perform, but the crowd of juggalos obviously hate her for whatever reason.
Bottles are seen flying through the air as Tila uses her bodyguards as human shields. At one point a fan tries to rush the stage, but is grabbed by security.
All the while, Tila keeps on rapping and tells the crowd she loves them and "I aint going nowhere, I aint no Paris Hilton in this b*tch".
Colt Cabana, a former WWE wrestler witnessed the chaos. He told TMZ it lasted about 15 minutes. He says a security guard told him someone had a watermelon that had been fermenting in urine and feces for two days and that they had been saving it all weekend for Tila.
Damn, that's some serious hatred right there.
What's not seen on tape is Tila flashing her breasts to calm the crowd down (which they ignored). And them allegedly chasing her and attacking her trailer.
The singer tweeted that a lawsuit is on the way:
"Thank you everyone for your support. The people at Juggalos behavior was disgusting and I am filing a suit against Them now. Thanks 4 ur luv"
Chris Brown may be hitting his musical stride again. Notching Greatest Gainer/Airplay honors for a second straight week, the singer is this close to notching a top 10 hit on Billboard's Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart with "Deuces." The breakup song-featuring Tyga and Kevin McCall-moves 15-11 in its sixth week on the chart.
Released to iTunes June 29 along with another new Brown song, "No B.S.," "Deuces" moves 60-59 on the Digital Songs chart. Up 11% in digital sales, the song has sold 132,000, according to Nielsen SoundScan.
"Deuces" also climbs 67-56 on the Billboard Hot 100, marking the singer's return to that tally. Brown last appeared on the Hot 100 last February when "I Can Transform Ya" featuring Lil Wayne and Swizz Beatz ended its tenure, peaking at No. 20. "Transform" peaked at No. 11 on Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs. The track was the lead single from Brown's third album, "Graffiti," which has sold 316,000.
The "Deuces" momentum follows Brown's emotional tribute to Michael Jackson during the BET Awards in June. While singing "Man in the Mirror," the singer broke down, prompting criticism that the meltdown was staged. Without addressing the detractors, Brown has stayed busy recording and tweeting about new music. He recently polished off a remix of Nicki Minaj's "Your Love" and is featured on a new Twista track, "Make a Movie."
Among the top mainstream R&B radio stations spinning "Deuces" in heavy rotation are KBFB Dallas, WHTD Detroit, KKDA Dallas and WPEG Charlotte, N.C., whose OM/PD Terri Avery says positive audience reaction to Brown at the BET Awards has nothing to do with the song's growing success. "The track, the lyrics . . . it's just a good song."
Brown will next appear in the film "Takers," out Aug. 27. There's no official word from Jive as to when his fourth album will be released. The singer has tweeted that his next CD may arrive in 2011 or sooner, possibly preceded by another mixtape, "In My Zone 2."

Video After The JumpStage diving should come with instruction manuals for some people.
Brick Squad member, Waka Flocka attempted to crowd surf during his show at a club in Minnesota and got dropped by the crowd.
It looked like it happened because members of Waka's crew jumped in right after him and it was too much weight for the crowd to handle at one time and that is definitely not the way to do it.
By the time the last guy jumped from the stage, there were only bodies left on the floor to land on. SMH
No worries though, nobody got hurt and Waka made it back to the stage to perform "Hard In The Paint".

We could be looking at unusual, but potentially dope collaboration in the making.Kanye West, Justin Bieber and Wu Tang Clan's Raekwon discussed the possibility of hopping on a record together.
West, who just opened a Twitter account July 29, has already become one to keep an eye on because he keeps things interesting. He got the ball rolling on the idea this morning (August 15).
He tweeted, "Listening to @Justin Bieber "Run Away love" ... I love Sunday mornings in the crib. I have listened to Runaway Love about 10 times so far ... ironically I got a song called Runaway on my new album too"
Bieber soon replied and the two started to talk about collaborating, with Kanye throwing Raekwon's name out there as well.
"An I'm honored that you like my Music @JustinBieber!!! You gotta hear the album. Maybe we can do something together. Me, You and Raekwon," Yeezy tweeted.
Bieber replied with, "me, u, and the chef 2gether on a song = EPIC. haha. might sound crazy 2 u but even having this convo is living the dream. thanks"
Raekwon didn't directly respond to either of them, but he did retweet the collaboration idea, which in Twitterland means you generally agree with something.
I really like the idea of Raekwon and Kanye getting in the studio together. Not sold as much on the idea of Bieber being on the track, but you never know, this could turn out dope.
