The illustrious Vivica A. Fox celebrated her 55th birthday in style with a lavish private dinner in Beverly Hills on July 30th, 2019 hosted by Tina and Richard Lawson.
Joined by friends, including her Face The Truth co-stars Areva Martin and Dr. Judy Ho, Oscar-winner Regina King, Empire co-star Tasha Smith, Cookie Johnson and Simone Smith, Ms. Fox donned her birthday crown and wrapped herself in all the loving tributes coming her way.
Guests dined on some of Tina’s delicious homemade gumbo and three different kinds of cake, because when you’ve been a queen as long as Ms. Fox, you get to indulge a little on your special day!
Check out a few photos from an amazing night to remember.
Happy Birthday, Vivica! Your ESSENCE family loves you.
