Why Jimmy Kimmel Banned Vivica A. Fox From His Talk Show

For this one, we’re throwing it back to 2005 when Vivica A. Fox appeared on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” and didn’t exactly get the introduction she was hoping for. Though footage of the awkward interview has pretty much been scrubbed from the internet, Kimmel began on a bit of a sour note by stating a few of the “Independence Day” star’s achievements before adding, “…and most harrowing of all, Star Jones’ bridesmaid.” The two then had an awkward interview, as Fox told him, “We usually have really great comical moments, but that’s my friend and I love her… It’s not funny to me, so let’s start over.” But Kimmel pushed things further. “I’m desperate to make this work. You know what? The four of us should get together — me, you, Star, and Al [Reynolds],” he told her, to which Fox responded, “You would get your a** kicked” — and walked off.

Fast-forward to 2014 when Kimmel made an appearance on “Watch What Happens Live,” and made it clear he would never have Fox back after the interaction. He gave more insight into why Fox was so frosty, claiming, “She may have been invited to Star Jones’ wedding and I may have asked her if I could be the date to that wedding and Star Jones may hate me and may have yelled at her and she may have been very angry when [Fox] came back to our show.”
