Actress Rebecca Broussard was sentenced to five days in jail and three years of probation after pleading no contest to a drinking and driving felony charge.

Superior Court Judge Katherine Mader on Monday also ordered Broussard, charged under the name Rebecca Kelly to perform 30 days of state highway cleanup, participate in a hospital and morgue “Scared Straight” program and undergo alcohol treatment program, said Sandi Gibbons, a spokeswoman for the district attorney’s office.

A second DUI charge was dismissed.

Attempts to find a phone listing for Broussard were unsuccessful. The charges stemmed from an August collision near Los Angeles International Airport.

Broussard, 45, is the mother of Jack Nicholson’s two teenage children. Her movie credits include Nicholson titles ‘The Two Jakes” and “Mars Attacks!”

Whoopi Goldberg seemed sad and choked up on “The View” chat show Monday when her fellow co-hosts discussed how she was not included in a montage featuring Oscar hosts during the Academy Awards telecast.

The 52-year-old Goldberg has received two Oscar nominations, winning for her role as Oda Mae Brown in 1990’s “Ghost.” She hosted the event in 199, 1996, 1999 and 2002. She did, however, appear as an Oscar winner in a separate montage Sunday night.

Goldberg appeared stumped that the academy would leave her out of the one clip, as well as repeat hot Steve Martin.

“Maybe they accidentally lost a clip of you hosting… But I think its wrong,” Elisabeth Hasselbeck said, Joy Behar said “being slighted is never fun.” Sherri Shepherd wondered if Goldberg had made someone mad.

“Undoubtedly,” Goldberg said, smiling. “Undoubtedly I (bleeped) somebody off yet again. You know what, I don’t – I don’t know.”
