She said that it affected her career especially with the media attention on her case.
A celebrity catfight in a bar cannot fail to grab public attention and the case was chronicled in Malaysian newspapers.
And Fazura was often shown as a wild party girl.
She said she decided to lie low for a while and as a result her star dimmed.
When she was charged, the Pahang-born model-turned-actress and former MTV host was a rising star.
Fazura made a winning debut in 2004 after her maiden role in the film Bicara Hati (The Heart Decides) won for her the Most Promising Actress Award at the 17th Malaysia Film Festival.
She found popularity playing Putri in the 2005 film Gol & Gincu (Lipsticks and Goalposts) - about futsal-playing young women - that spun off into the popular television series.
She was also hosting MTV Asia's show Boom showcasing bands from Singapore, Malaysia and Indonesia until last year when she left to concentrate on her acting career.
Fazura is probably best known among Singaporeans as Asian Idol Hady Mirza's ex-girlfriend. Their one-year relationship hit the limelight last year.
While both initially denied they were dating, they came clean after their break-up last year.
Fazura said she is thankful she had an army of supporters throughout the courtroom saga.
Gol & Gincu's co-producer, Ms Lina Tan of production company Red Films, told a Malaysian entertainment magazine, StarMag, that because of who Fazura is, the industry tends to judge her more harshly.
She said: 'The thing in this industry is, when you are female, young and beautiful, people judge you more.
'People look at her, she is gorgeous and beautiful, and so people just assume she will also be arrogant. But when you get to know her, she is warm, smart and funny.'
