  • An incarcerated Foxy Brown handwrote a note to a New York judge as a part of an appeals claim on Tuesday asking for early release over fears that staying in prison could damage her pre-existing “profound hearing loss.” Brown was sentenced to a year in jail last September for a probation violation.

  • At the New York Times‘ Art & Leisure Week, Feist revealed her upcoming video for “The Water” (the follow-up to her breakthrough clip “1234″) will star actor Cillian Murphy, while the clip for “Honey Honey” will feature a Canadian avant-garde puppet theater.
