Celebrity Justice
A "Demeaning" Vivica Fox Pleads No Contest

Actress Vivica A. Fox has pleaded no contest to DUI.

The charges stem from an incident last March, when cops pulled over the "Booty Call" star on a California highway. According to police, she failed a field sobriety test and blew over the legal limit of .08.

As TMZ first reported, cops say Fox was "demeaning" and made several racist comments to arresting officers. The situation got so heated, a patrol sergeant had to be called to the scene. The report says Fox called one officer, who is white, a "racist," and that "Fox then burped quite loudly and [the officer] then aborted the test."

She was sentenced to three years probation, must pay a fine and enroll in a 90-day alcohol education program.

46. Hey Shannon, I dont refer to myself as African American. I dont get insulting when somebody white calls me "black" instead of that. I dont used the N word (in any situation) nor do I allow anyone, BLACK or WHITE to use it in my presence.

You guys need to stop generalizing all black ppl. You watch too much TV.

47. Shannon, nice point. Glad to see someone else here sees that too. Some people seem to like putting labels on themselves ( and especially others), which doesn't make sense to me, but.... I silently snicker when my buddy, who's never set foot outside of America, refers to himself as Irish American. He is not anywhere near pure Irish and his family came over during the potato famine. I think just using the word 'American' usually works fine. But then I'm such a mutt concerning my heritage, I really couldn't pin down one particular country if I tried.

50. Captain that's right. The sooner we just call ourselves American the better off we will all be. We have china town, Japan town, Little Italy. If we called something White town, there would be riots in the streets. Get off it and stop blaming people for your shortcomings. Could you imagine affirmitive action for white people?
Study hard, work hard, don't expect, or accept a handout.

51. Usually people on this site are screaming "Of course he/she isn't going to jail! They're white!!!!" Well it looks like rude, drunk, combative black stars don't get jail time on DUI either.

On another note entirely: Women who belch in public should be tasered.

53. 13. And why is she not doing the circuit begging white people for forgiveness, saying how much she loves white people then disappearing into "treatment"? Is her livelihood being threatened as she is held up in scorn by indignant white people?

54. Not for nothing, a white LA cop is probably a racist.

55. Another low life piece of crap with a bad attitude. Better start building more jails.

60. If this soul sista just busts a move in court like she did on "Dancing with the Stars" then perhaps she can conga her way out! I'm sure she tossed out "cracker" "white bitch", blue eyed devil, white devil, etc., while she was being arrested. She'll never get a white role in Hollywood again.
