Guest Youth N Asia Report post Posted April 29, 2003 From IMDB.com Comedian Jamie Foxx and his sister were arrested after getting into a brawl with police at a New Orleans, Louisiana, casino. Any Given Sunday star Foxx was asked for ID when he tried to enter Harrah's Casino with his sister Deidra Dixon on Friday at 4am. They were incensed at the security guard's request and refused to comply or leave the casino - instead heading to one of the gaming tables, prompting cops to be called. The French Quarter fracas ensued - with Dixon punching one of the police in the face. The pair had to be subdued with pepper spray and dragged out in handcuffs, says police Captain Marlon A. DeFillo. Foxx and Dixon were charged with trespassing, battery and resisting arrest. Foxx was released on $1,900 bond. ---------------------------------------------- You gotta love these assholes who are pretty much above the law since they've got money. Anyone who was broke would serve prison time for hitting a cop. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest DrTom Report post Posted April 29, 2003 Christ, just show the guy your fucking ID. He's just doing his job, and probably doesn't know that your dumb ass is a "celebrity." I swear, it's like people expect themselves to be instantly recognizible everywhere they go, and to have everyone let them do what they want because of it. I guess pepper spray in the face and a few hours in jail could remind someone that that's not the case at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Vern Gagne Report post Posted April 29, 2003 Twenty Bucks says Foxx dropped the "You know who I am" line. They should throw the book at him. But, they won't. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Mole Report post Posted April 29, 2003 Fuck Jamie Foxx, he isn't even that great of an actor to begin with. My roomate was telling about a similar story with Steve from Jerry Springer. At a club called CPI in the Hamptons, where I go to school, Steve was there. He wanted to go outside with his drink, but the bouncer wouldn't let him because they aren't allowed to. He said to the bouncer "Do you know who I am? I'm Steve from Jerry Springer. I can do what I want to do." He then tried to go outside, and the bouncer just laid him out cold. I guess Steve is only like 5'8, well that is what my roomate told me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Bannable Offense Report post Posted April 29, 2003 The French Quarter fracas ensued - with Dixon punching one of the police in the face. I don't care who you are or who you're related to. Once that first blow lands on my face, the gloves are off and it's f'n go time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest mach7 Report post Posted April 29, 2003 Does anyone even give a shit about Jamie Foxx? I mean, the guy's a fucking third rate In Living Color cast off. I swear, some of these "celebrities" need to be dropped into the lion's den of a local zoo... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest ant_7000 Report post Posted April 29, 2003 ^ I do, I like Jamie he's a funny dude, he was probably drunk as fuck. He'll probably use this for his stand up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest PORNFAQ Report post Posted April 29, 2003 You know, it's funny...about 6:30am this morning while I'm getting ready for work his HBO special, I Might Need Security was on. I'd seen it before and while it's not VERY funny, it does have its VERY FUNNY moments. Anyway, listening to the radio on the way in to work I heard it was Jamie's youngish-looking 25-year old sister that they asked to provide them with ID, not Jamie Foxx himself. So it wasn't a case of "I'm not showing you shit, I'm a celebrity, dammit!" At any rate, it was still stupid of him to get beligerent and whatnot just because they wouldn't take his or her's word for it that she was of age. And anyone who has the balls to punch a cop in the face over something like that deserves a cheyanne-pepper-flavored cajun facial courtesy of N'awlins finest.

Guest El Satanico Report post Posted April 30, 2003 Jamie Foxx didn't hit anyone, but some of you are talking like he's the one who punched the cop. The woman with him was the one who hit the cop. There is no book to throw at Foxx, since the biggest charge they could get him on is resisting arrest. He'd never serve any major time over that, since he wasn't the one that assaulted the cop.

Guest PORNFAQ Report post Posted April 30, 2003 Um...no. I think everyone here knows that it was his lil sis that did the punching, but he still got out of line with the casino people and the cops by throwing his little hissy fit over an ID matter. I'm not saying he should get in any trouble, but his behavior was pretty fucking dumb. And if the cops pepper sprayed him and his sister I think he was probably doing more than just talking loud and splashing around in the fountain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
