BUSTED: Faith Evans Stopped For DUI!

Aug 22 | by YBF

Faith Evans got popped by the police last night for driving under the influence. The deets when you read on...

According to TMZ, R&B sensation Faith Evans was stopped at a DUI checkpoint near the Marina Del Rey section of Los Angeles when officers detected that she had been drinking alcohol.

As you may know, Evans is not a stranger to the police. Back in January 2004, Evans and her husband Todd Russaw were arrested for riding dirty. They were charged with possession of marijuana and cocaine and an improper tag violation during a traffic stop in Georgia.

Faith was arrested and booked on suspicion of DUI on Saturday night, but details of her blood alcohol level have not been released. Story is still developing....

Wonder if this incident was captured for her new reality show It’s All About Faith, which is debuting soon. Hopefully she gets her personal ish together before she drops her upcoming album Something About Faith, October 5th. Maybe she didn't get the memo: Driving while intoxicated is NOT cool and VERY dangerous.

Check out the behind the scenes promo vid of Faith Evans' photoshoot for her new album Something About Faith.

Faith has an awesome voice.

Faith has an awesome voice. I can't wait for her new album. I believe that she was once Mary J. Blige's vocal coach in her first years as an artist. I know that they appeared on each other's albums. If you don't know who she is. Look her up and see for yourself. A good song by her is "True Love". That song has a lot of meaning to it.

Celebs should be very careful

Celebs should be very careful at the industry events and other celeb parties they attend because they're drinking and getting behind the wheel. You may not feel drunk just tipsy & even a little liquor in the system can have a bad outcome. ZHZope it all works out for Faith. She's one of my favorite singers.

So many people want to talk about a person when they have troubles or issues. I don't want to do that but would rather say that I pray that she can work out the issues of her life so that she can be a healthy, strong woman for herself and her family. I wish Faith all the best and will continue to support her because I enjoy her music.

I agree Natasha, I don't care if people choose to drink, smoke or snort everyday but when you get on the road under the influence you make it my problem and a problem for everyone you encounter. I'm sure she can afford a taxi or driver or even just a friend as a designated driver. Maybe she needs a few days in jail because my tolerance for this mess is ZERO!

Most folks know who Faith

Most folks know who Faith Evans is. She has a beautiful voice. The problem in this story about her is that she had no business driving drunk and endangering the lives of others. I'm glad nothing tragic happened. Also, she is making the rounds of Christian venues. Gotta clean up Faith!

My girlfriend and I make play

My girlfriend and I make play dates to go to a clubs, being that we are in our late 20's and have a kid. I have of husband and she has boyfriend that drop us off and the other one would pick us up. By doing this process, its not to say we're going to the club to get shitfaced. But, like I said we have a family, and dont wont to put ourselves or them in any danger. Because lets face it daddy do a good job, but, theirs nothing like MOMMY. I have faith CD, and have been a fan since her arrival in hip hop &rb in the mid 90's. After the first offense a couple years ago I would have thought she would not put herself or children in any danger. Wait, does anyone else care more about the children being effected if something would have happened to Faith?
