Vivica A. Fox Shares Her Perfect 1st Date Meal Order to Keep Things ‘Sexy’: ‘Something Light’
When it comes to choosing what to eat on a first date, Vivica A. Fox says she always chooses “something light.”
“For me, that would be a Dover sole [and] sautéed spinach,” the actress, 59, exclusively shares in the newly revamped Us Weekly. “I try to keep it light so that I stay in the outfit.” (Fox, who is currently single, was previously married to Christopher Harvest from 1998 to 2002.)
Nearly 40 years after getting her acting start on Days of Our Lives, Fox continues to shine. As she approaches her 60th birthday later this month, food and family will play a big part in how she celebrates in her home state of Indiana rather than her usual trip to Jamaica.
“I can’t believe it, but [I’m] looking forward to it so I can go ahead and get it on out [of] the way and walk into a new decade,” she shares, adding that family from “all over the country” will be gathering to ring in her milestone birthday.
