Vivica A. Fox Unveils New Movie With Jussie Smollett to Celebrate His 60th Birthday
Vivica A. Fox has lots to have fun. Next month, the actress will have fun her 60th birthday, and she or he couldn’t be more excited.
Fox talked about entering her sixth decade of life and the way she plans to have fun this big day by talking to People on Saturday, June 22, as a part of a special offer to have fun the fifth anniversary of Project Angel Food Lead with Love.
“I feel so good in the skin I’m in,” she told the publication. “I’m very comfortable with the fact that I’m going to be 60. I mean, a lot of people are like, ‘Oh my God,’ but I feel like I’m going to be stunning at 60, even sexier at 70, and amazing at 80. God willing.”
Fox often celebrates her birthday in Jamaica with 30 friends, but this 12 months she plans to travel to her hometown of Indianapolis to spend the day together with her family. The actress said that when it comes to plans, “everything is already ready.”
“My mom’s getting older and we wanted to make sure we celebrated with her at home because she can’t go to Jamaica,” she explained, adding, “It’s funny because she’s like, ‘Are you all going to the islands this year, honey?’ And I said, ‘No, we’re not.’ We’ll be at home. And she said, ‘Great. Can I come to the party?’ And I said, ‘Yes, mom.'”
Fox’s 60th birthday is not the only thing she’s celebrating this 12 months. The “Two Can Play This Game” star is working on a brand new film together with her “Empire” co-star Jussie Smollett, with whom she says she has a “special bond.” The film, which Smollet will direct, might be one in all his first projects after being found guilty of faking a hate crime in 2019, as TheGrio previously reported.
“We have known each other for a very long time and I call him nephew because we have discussed everything, good, bad and everything,” Fox shared with People magazine. “And an important thing is that it’s good to see my friend smiling again. This is an important thing that is essential to me. But he’s my director for our latest movie that is coming out called “The Lost Holliday.” And let me inform you, I used to be very moved once I read the comments. Everyone deserves a second likelihood.”

“I just prepared an invitation that I’ll be handing out next week, but I’ve already let him know he’s invited and he’s excited,” Fox said.
