The world of famous beef is strange, Byzantine, and always feels like “B” intrigues of the soap operas several decades. Example: the prolific actress Vivica A. Fox was prohibited by the longtime talk show host Jimmy Kimmel, always appearing in her late evening “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” The actor and the actress came to blow on a very clumsy interview involving Fox’s friend, the star Jones, a former host of the successful series “The View”. The interview has since been removed from YouTube and any other online source, but the confrontation has been recalled with clarity in An article on the Nicki Swift website.
Jimmy Kimmel fans may know that he has an occasional dogpile propensity in certain random celebrities, generally without perceptible reason. He notoriously triggered a false rivalry with Matt Damon, perhaps remembers, which lasted years. Kimmel would say that Damon was in the green room of each of the “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” The recordings, but that the show has always run a little too long to get it out. Kimmel would apologize in the air of having ignored Damon, sometimes taking a little too much pleasure at the apology. This false “rivalry” led to extended pieces of comedy and even to musical numbers. Kimmel’s girlfriend and her colleague animator of Talk -show Sarah Silverman, entering the joke once, wrote and interpreted a song – with Matt Damon – called “I am F *** ING Matt Damon.” Kimmel replied in kind.
Kimmel, in the mid -2000s, also liked Josh Star Jones, using it as a punchline for many of its jokes. Jones had no personal beef with Kimmel, but she was a disproportionate personality, making her a target for Kimmel and other actors. Vivica Fox, however, was close to Jones and did not like Kimmel’s excavations to her friend. In 2005, Fox told Kimmel en waves. Kimmel, to avoid any other awkwardness, has fox disinvised at his spectacle in perpetuity.
Vivica Fox did not like Jimmy Kimmel making fun of Star Jones
Fox and Jones have been friends for years and, according to the article by Nicki Swift, Fox served as a bridesmaid at the wedding of Jones with Al Reynolds in 2004. The article told a gag that Kimmel made at the expense of Jones, in 2005, when Fox was on his show. Kimmel, presented Fox counting some of his most notable film credits, including the 1996 “day” superprooffer of independence “of 1996, before adding that of his credits, the” most heartbreaking of All “was to be” the bridesmaid “Star Jones”.
Fox went to the stage, and sat next to Kimmel, explaining that he was taking his false rivalry too far with Jones. “We generally have very good comic moments,” said Fox, “but it’s my friend and I love her … It’s not funny for me, so let’s start.” Kimmel, however, kept the light of mood, suggesting that the four of them – him, Fox, Jones and his new husband – come together to clean the air. Fox, not amused by the slight suggestion and upset by its total lack of attrition, said that such a meeting would cause Kimmel to obtain his “kicked ass”. She then left the scene in a breath. She was not on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” Since.
Nine years later, in 2014, Kimmel appeared in the talk show “Watch What Happens Live” (Unfortunately, also removed internet) to talk about the 2005 interview with Fox. It seems that the interview has already placed Fox in an awkward position, because the star Jones was already angry with Kimmel. Fox, agreeing to be on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” Angry against her friend, and Fox probably felt the need to prove his loyalty to Jones by facing Kimmel.
Jimmy Kimmel made fun of most celebrities
The way Kimmel said:
“She may have been invited to Jones’ wedding and I may have asked her if I could be the date of this marriage and Star Jones can hate me and may have shouted, and may have been very in anger when [Fox] I came back to our show. “”
Kimmel made fun of a lot of jones, but he tended to make fun of each celebrity. Indeed, he sometimes seemed to press the very concept of celebrity, as when he invited famous people to connect to Twitter and read the most cruel things with casualness that Twitter users had said about them. The bit of “medium tweets” lasted years. Kimmel may have said the truth when he said he wanted to attend Jones ‘wedding as an appointment of Fox, and was certainly not cruel enough to interrupt Jones’ wedding for a comedy. But there was so much animosity, no air authorization should have. Kimmel, to avoid any other awkwardness, simply refused to have fox on his show.
Fox also appeared on “Watch What Happens Live” In 2015 and admitted that she did not even know the ban. She said that she was a kind of friend of “ride or death”, and simply could not respect the mockery of Star Jones. It was only when she had met Kimmel to “A Live Event” at some point that the actor apologized to Fox for the ban. Fox said the ban was news for her. “Wow is old,” she said.
“Jimmy Kimmel Live!” is still broadcast to date. Fox played in the rest of “Independence Day” and dozens of more films. She will soon appear in the 2025 film “as a father as son”.
