Someone should have told Eve not to take "Ryde or Die Chick" so literally.

According to TMZ, Lady Eve crashed her gold Maserati on Hollywood Blvd. early this morning. As for her blood alcohol level, the cops arrested her on suspicion that it was above the legal limit.

Eve (real name: Eve Jeffers) was driving in Hollywood around 2:45 AM Thursday when she hit the center divider, totaling the front of her car. TMZ was on the scene, and observed that after cops arrived, they placed her in handcuffs, and (according to our staffers) she was "visibly upset" as they led her into a squad car. We've learned that there were two people in the car with Eve at the time.

Eve is supposed to be a celebrity who has her life together. Not that people who have their lives together don't make mistakes, but (alleged) drunk driving accidents are pretty big mistakes.

Last week, she talked about how much her leaked sex tape with Stevie J embarrassed her. Her TMZ arrest footage might just embarrass her more.
