Posted Mar 21st 2007 5:33PM by TMZ Staff

TMZ has learned Vivica A. Fox has been busted for DUI.

It happened last night on the 101 Freeway in the San Fernando Valley at 10:57 PM. We're told Fox passed a marked black and white while going approximately 80 mph. Sources say the officers went after the 2007 Cadillac Escalade she was driving.

The officers administered a field sobriety test -- which Fox was unable to perform. The former "Dancing With the Stars" contestant was then placed under arrest on suspicion of driving under the influence.

3. Oh, no! She'll get over this. Dating 50 was just poor judgement and the way that he talked about her afterwards was disgusting.

4. Here we go again, another celebrity caught in the drinking act. When will these "so-called" celebrities learn?, and who made them a celebrity anyway?. In my opinion, just because you can act doesn't mean you have common sense. Anyone who can read a prepared script can act. Hope she'll learn and apologize to herself for her bad judgement.

8. So what? This broad is SO YESTERDAY. Let's face it she is on "Dancing With The Stars". Dancing With The Stars -- The desperate celebrity's last clutch at a sliver of TV time. Maybe she was riding around with that old guy from all those Lifetime movies.

12. Are these celebrities attempting to outdo one another on DUI charges now? Is that the new hip thing in Hollywood?

13. There is a better way.
I found it and so can you.
I have not spent one DIME on alcohol...I have not got a DUI nor have I abused my family or friends.
Life is great sober.

If I think, I won't drink
If I drink, I CAN'T think.

Be safe....

Oh, I had a cousin that was drunk, killed a guy that was walking along the side of the road, he served 3 years in prison and this act ultimately killed him. You see, he could not get it out of his mind and within 2 years of release from prison, he drank himself to death.... WOW, for what?

14. PEOPLE, YES, DRIVING AND DRINK IS A NO-NO. WHAT I DON'T UNDERSTAND IF ANYONE IS GOING TO PARTY, OR DRINK-USE A TAXI OR SOMEONE TO DRIVE YOU, IF YOU CABN AFFORD TO DRINK--AFFORD A CAB. MY SON DIDN'T--COST HIM 15.OOO AND ALMOST WENT TO PRISON, HE HAD ALOT OF GOOD PEOPLE BEHIND HIM, AND THIS WAS THE FIRST, HE HAD 250 HRS COMMUNITY SERVICE, HIM AND I PAINTED THE ROOMS AT OUR CHURCH. THINGS COULD HAVE BEEN SO MUCH WORSE, WHAT IF HE WOULD HAVE KILLED A CHILD, HE DID HURT TO PEOPLE. I WAS A DRINKER, BUT, I CHANGED BEFORE IT WAS TO LATE. I COULDN'T LIVE IF I TOOK AWAY SOMEONES BABY.

THINK ABOUT IT--ANNIE

15. She is out of control, she needs to be thrown jail like the rest of the of the criminals that she hangs out with. Just who does she think she is anyway. Passing a marked police car and not even knowing that she did that tells me that she was drunk off he ass. I think all these celebrities need to know that this behavior is not going to be tolerated by us the American people of the United States. How would she or all of the American people of this country feel if she had taken a innocent human life. We as a country and a nation need to take back our nation, these celebrities are out of control and we need to put our foot down on the alcohol issues. I think if someone is working at a bar or at a liquor store and a celebrity comes in, just tell them they are stars and they can't be served. I sure that they will understand, somrthing has to be done
