On Wednesday, June 15th, actress Vivica A. Fox stopped by The Wendy Williams Show and shared her candid feelings towards Donald Trump, plus dished on landing her role on Empire, starring in the new movie “Independence Day: Resurgence” and more! Excerpts and clips below.
VIVICA A. FOX ON PLAYING COOKIE’S SISTER ON EMPIRE:
Vivica: “I’ve known Lee [Daniels] for years but it was the epic boardroom showdown that I had on Celebrity Apprentice and he saw that epic boardroom showdown with toxic trick…he gave me a call afterwards and he was like ‘girl…’ –but he said another [word] it starts with a B—‘you’re going to be on my show.’ And he kept his word! Three months later he gave me a call and said do you mind playing Cookie’s older sister? And I said no, not at all.”
ON KENYA MOORE:
Wendy Williams: “Have you seen…um Kenya since the boardroom?”
Vivica: “Since the Finale show? No, no I haven’t. I am too busy having a legitimate career and making sure people get paid.”
ON DONALD TRUMP:
Vivica: “[Trump is] Misogynistic and he insults people. The thing that blows me away with Mr. Trump, and I will still give him respect to call him that because when I did Celebrity Apprentice he was a complete gentleman, I think he has a lovely family, he’s been excellent with business. But the leader of the free world, our country, the United states of America, has to carry himself with more class like Barack [Obama]. Barack is grace under fire and he does it at a time when we don’t need to be divided, we need to be united and that’s what I am looking for in our next president – hashtag I’m with her.”
ON KEEPING IN TOUCH WITH RAPPER 50 CENT:
Vivica: “No! Hell to the no. No ma’am, pam. No. No. No. I don’t do him no more, that ship has sailed. No more memes for that one he gets no more memes, cuz after I talk about him, memes go a flooding. You know what I mean? For some odd reason, he thinks I need him to be famous and I don’t.”
ON REALITY SHOWS:
Vivica: “I changed my mind after I saw your [Wendy’s] comments to be very honest with you … The lord has a way of working things out. I do have a new [docuseries] coming out…which I am an executive producer of, called Vivica’s Black Magic, where I take eight male exotic dancers on a quest and I want to bring them back to dance just for you and ya’ll!” (points at audience)
