The reported rumor concerned events that were alleged to have happened at an after-party for fashion designer Indashio during New York Fashion Week at Red Bull Space in SoHo.

“When I got to the club I was not intoxicated at all. That’s a lie. There was no intoxication, there was no drama, and I was never physically escorted out by security," Foxy says.

“And people were coming in and out of the bathroom,” she adds disputing the claim that she'd locked herself in.

Indashio is a personal friend of mine,” she said, adding that the eccentric young designer will be styling her for her next album. “I love and support him.”

Foxy pointed out that although she wasn’t contracted to perform at the after-party, the DJ put on her song, introduced her to the crowd, and Indashio got on stage.

“The DJ put on my record out of love,” Foxy said. “We had a ball.”

“I was so happy to see her,” Indashio tells RadarOnline.com. “When Foxy came at the end, it was the perfect way to close the night. It was the best after party I ever had.”

Foxy agrees. “We had a good time. It was a fun night.”
