Rapper Foxy Brown made a special command performance in Broward Wednesday.
Not in a concert, but before a judge.
The hip-hop diva, whose real name is Inga Marchand, plead not guilty to a pair of misdemeanor assault charges stemming from an altercation she got into at a Pembroke Pines beauty supply store last February.
The judge, who had issued an arrest warrant for Brown when she failed to show up for a previous hearing, dismissed it after learning her 'notice to appear' had been mailed to a wrong address.
Earlier this month, Brown pleaded guilty in New York to a probation violation for leaving that state without permission for the trip to South Florida that resulted in her arrest.
During that hearing, the judge warned Brown that she could be sentenced for up to a year in jail if she violates her probation again.
Brown was on probation as the result of afight she got into at a Chelsea, N.Y., nail salon in 2004.
