‘I am on the set of my new video,’ the R&B singer tweets, thanking fans for support after weekend drunken driving charge. By James Dinh Faith Evans Photo: Jim Spellman/WireImage When it comes to R&B singers these days, personal troubles seem to be the least of their worries. Fantasia was ready to promote her album just weeks after her reported suicide attempt. And now Faith Evans says she’s resuming work on her new music video just days after her arrest on suspicion of misdemeanor drunken driving. The singer took to Twitter to thank fans for their well-wishes and assured them that a music video is still on the way. “Hi Faithfuls…I am on the set of my new video for my single “Gone Already”. I’m sure by now most of you heard that I was detained on suspicion of a DUI,” she tweeted on Monday (August 23). “After completing a full day of wardrobe prep I was stopped at a random checkpoint. I’m fine and well, and thank you for your prayers, kind words and concerns. I can’t wait for you all to see my new video & look forward to hearing from u guys…Fizzy,” she continued. On Saturday, Evans was pulled over at a checkpoint near Marina del Rey in Los Angeles and arrested on suspicion of misdemeanor drunken driving where she was then taken into police custody at 10:40 p.m. According to The Associated Press, the singer’s car was impounded as she was held for a few hours before being released on bail the following morning. In addition to working on new music, the singer is reportedly filming her own reality show , titled “It’s All About Faith,” which will follow Evans as she makes her return to the music scene.

The singer was reportedly pulled over Saturday night in Los Angeles. By Mawuse Ziegbe Faith Evans Photo: Tiffany Rose/ WireImage Faith Evans was arrested Saturday night on suspicion of misdemeanor drunken driving, according to the Los Angeles Times. Evans was taken into police custody at 10:40 p.m. at a checkpoint near Marina del Rey, Los Angeles Police Department’s Officer Cleon Joseph told the Times. The Associated Press reports Evans’ car was impounded and she was released on bail the following morning. The incident is not the singer’s first brush with the law. In 2004, Evans and her husband, Todd Russaw, were arrested in Atlanta on drug possession charges. Evans evaded jail time by entering a pretrial drug-abuse intervention program. She referenced the drama in her 2005 single “Again.” “In ATL, I caught a case/ And the media tried to say, I had a habit/ I couldn’t manage, and I’m throwing my life away,” Evans belts on the midtempo track. Evans first hit the scene as a signee to Diddy’s Bad Boy label and went on to pump out R&B hits such as “Love Like This” and “You Gets No Love.” Evans also married fellow Bad Boy artist Notorious B.I.G. and won a 1997 Grammy, along with Diddy and 112, for the Biggie-tribute song “I’ll Be Missing You,” in the wake of the iconic MC’s death. After parting ways with her longtime label and releasing the 2005 album The First Lady on Capitol Records, the singer took a break from the fame game to focus on her family. At the 2009 premiere of “Notorious,” the biopic about her late husband’s rise to hip-hop prominence, Evans told MTV News that while she didn’t have a record contract, she was looking to return to music. “I’ve been taking a lot of meetings, and I’ve been enjoying my freedom, not being tied down to anything other than my family. I’m ready to record again,” Evans said. “I’ve been hesitant to get into any type of record-deal situation. The offers have been coming in. Through the process of elimination, I’ll pick the one that’s right for me.” Related Artists Faith Evans
