Black History Month Essay #10
My essay is about Vivica A Fox. She is best known as the spokeswoman for Batman and Robin, but she is still a worthwhile person.
Vivica started her acting career on such soap operas like Days of Our Lives. There is truth to the rumor that that show will outlive us all. Later she was cast for a role on an ABC show called Living Dolls. Even though she was replaced after the pilot the stench of being on a Who's The Boss? spin-off hurt her early career and forced her to guest star on several more sitcoms.
After her critically acclaimed appearances helped her to land several important roles. Kids learned a lot just from the title of Don't Be a Menace to South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood. Booty Call taught us about phone etiquette. And critics uniersally praised her for her stereotype-shattering character of Ms. B Haven in Batman and Robin.
You'd think people would get tired of her stuffing messages down their throats, but she continued to make these kind of movies. She starred in a instructional film about alarm clocks in Set It Off. Later Vivica appeared in the film Soul Food, a film used to promote Ecto-Cooler. She even taught us about freedom in her role as a flame-retarded superhero in Independence Day.
Tired of her moralizing, the public sent Uma Thurman to kill her. Uma was jealous of Vivica after Viv stole every scene she was in in Batman and Robin. This fight was filmed and appears in Kill Bill, Vol. 1. Despite the fact that Vivica was killed, no one ever dies in Hollywood.
She couldn't just jump back into her career, so she starred in a Canadian show appropriately called Missing. When she made her comeback she did it with style. I'm referring to, of course, her reality show Glam God.
Vivica's career is still going strong. She will appear in an upcoming movie called Junkyard Dog, costarring Duane Chapman. Another one of her films is Caught on Tape, which is still floating around on the internet. Truly she's a great actress.
There is no truth to the rumor that I phoned this essay in.
