Will someone please confirm that "****" is used as a derogatory terms
in America as well as in the UK? I don't think I've ever heard it used
with an American accent in films.

Political correctness has killed American slang. When I was an
adolescent, in fact even as early as a pre-teen, that word was part of
the mandatory vocabulary, and like other such terms, it's usage at the
right moment was considered high art. g

Yup, it is derogatory. Seldom used in polite company, seldom used even in
no-so-polite company such as movies.

No kidding! In case there's a difference in the literal meaning from
place to place, where I live, it is a synonym for the female pudenda,
although it's not nearly as crude as the other word for that.
