Rapper Eve has been arrested on suspicion of DUI after crashing her car.
The rapper and actress - who starred in "XXX" alongside Vin Diesel - narrowly escaped death after she drove her gold Maserati into the central reservation on Hollywood Boulevard at around 2.45 a.m. on Thursday.
The star - full name Eve Jeffers - was handcuffed by police and taken in a squad car to the Los Angeles County jail.
A witness said: "She was visibly upset. The car was totaled."
There were reportedly two passengers in the vehicle at the time.
In a bizarre twist, Eve was visited in jail by Oscar-winning actor Sean Penn, who was seen leaving the police station in a taxi at 4 a.m. A police source told gossip website TMZ.com: "He came to see how Eve was doing."
It is not known if Penn had been out with Eve earlier that night.
The Grammy-award winning artist - who once had her own self-titled sitcom - was later released on bail and picked up in another Maserati.
