Expo organizers confirmed that actress and TV producer VIVICA A. FOX is scheduled to appear at the first annual Central Florida Black Expo at the Orange County Convention Center. The expo will run on June 29 and 30 in Orlando.
Ms Fox has had a long career entertaining audiences on both the large and small screen. She first started acting professionally in soap operas such as “Generations”, “Days of Our Lives” and “The Young and the Restless”. Her debut in the films “Independence Day” and in “Set It Off”, put her solidly on the map as a movie actress. Her movie credits include favorites such as “Booty Call”, “Batman & Robin” and “Kill Bill: Vol. 1”. She earned critical acclaim for her portrayal of “Maxine” in the 1997 motion picture “Soul Food”, which netted her MTV Movie Award and NAACP Image Award nominations.
Attendees at the Central Florida Black Expo will also be able to meet another member of the Soul Food cast, DARRIN HENSON. Mr Henson is likely to charm the ladies as he reads poetry from his latest book, “Intimate Thoughts”. Fans will have the opportunity to “Win Dinner With Darrin” when they visit the expo’s Facebook fan page atfacebook.com/CentralFloridaBlackExpo.
