Nicholson's Baby Mama Busted

Rebecca Broussard, the mother of Jack Nicholson's two youngest children, was arrested Sunday afternoon on charges of felony DUI. She was booked into Valley Jail in Van Nuys, Calif. late Sunday night and released on $100,000 early Monday morning.

Sources tell TMZ her current husband, Dennis, was a passenger in the vehicle and suffered a broken arm. Broussard, who was arrested under her former married name of Rebecca Kelly, is due back in court September 17.

Broussard and Nicholson have a daughter, Lorraine, 17, and a son, Raymond, 15.

TMZ could not locate a rep for Broussard.
Small world.

Thats so in tune with the character.
As Tex would say. . .

"I heard that Sylvia was pulled over last week. Her speeder was doing dodge 'ems with Coit Tower. Seems she was DIAUI. . .Driving In the Air Under the Influence.

Yeah, I do that to women when I dump them."
Never too late for coffee, never too early for beer.
Most surprising: she was married to J.N. Strange world.
Frankly she played Silvia terribly. So I don't really care :D
THANK YOU! I am glad someone other than me brought that up. I didn't like her as Sylvia either, however now it's a lot more plausible, hmmmm
Phew. So I'm not the only one with that thought in the back of my head?

I can agree with most of you guys. I didn't think the Sylvia character really came across the way it was meant to in Overseer. I think it could have been a lot more dynamic and led to a lot more Tex story potential (which could be brought out in the sequel that never was for obvious reasons) since her character had so much mystery behind it, even following her final scenes in the game. But, without a doubt, she still was most likely a great pick for the time because she was a low-class actress with several high-class (or at least high-profile) connections.

As for the person behind the character, I don't like to see things like this happen, but 9 times out of 10 you bring everything on yourself that happens to you. Sometimes its out of simply not protecting yourself as much as you should, from trusting others too much. And other times, like this, its simply because you neglect your safety simply for a fun time. But the moral of the message is that no matter how well she did her job in the past, that behind that character is a person; a person who now is in a lot of trouble. More often a Hollywood life is a troubled life. And as I said only a moment ago, more often than not you will be the one who stages your own defeat.

Best wishes to Rebecca Broussard in her court case. May she learn from this and become a better person.

Mean Streets Silvia FTW! simple as that. I mean she was sexy, seductive and you could understand why Tex liked her. In UAKM it made me want to just slap her :D
Gotta agree. She was the single biggest reason why I like UAKM and Pandora better than Overseer. If the Broussard had been as young as the character she played, it probably would have come off a lot better.

Broussard was still better than the Sylvia in the brief upholstery scene in UAKM. That actress was like claws on a chalkboard.

Wasn't that Aaron Conners' wife or something? Or am I thinking of someone else?

The wife of Aaron Conners played the role of the hostess at the Golden Pagoda. :D

Kris Conners.
Ahh. Thank you.
