Vivica A. Fox Fashion Transformation

Actress, dancer, TV producer and reality TV contestant Vivica A. Fox has been a citizen of what many call 'Hollywierd' for many years. After wooing audiences on the big and small screens in diverse roles since the '90s, Fox is now the host of VH1's 'Glad God With Vivica A. Fox.' On this show, she whips competitors to the finish line to find out who is the next great Hollywood stylist. But does this woman have what it takes to be an arbiter of style? Read on.

Vivica began her career on soaps like 'Days of Our Lives' and 'The Young and the Restless,' even acting in 'Generations,' the only all-black soap opera to date. At the 17th Annual Daytime Emmy Awards Marriott Marquis Hotel in New York City, Fox has a pretty face and smile, but appears to be wearing the work clothes of an 'old west' hooker -- modernized with a slim skirt.

In 1998, when Ms. Fox still had her real hair and her real face, her "round-the-way" style was that of a church mom. This was two years after her big breaks in the films 'Set It Off' (1996) and 'Independence Day' (1996). At least she was smart not to spend all her new money on clothes.

It's 2002 is it me, or has the plastic surgery begun to creep in? In what many believe is an inevitable symptom of living the celebrity lifestyle, at a certain point in recent years, Fox began toying with the girl-next-door looks that many men found devastatingly sexy. Soon both her style and her face would seem to transform for the worse.

'Aunt Viv' attended the 59th Annual Golden Globe Awards in 2002 wearing a gown from the teen department of her local department store, and a clip on side-pony tail from the hair store on the corner of her block -- or so it seemed. Her face looks cute, though.

On the red carpet in 2003, Ms. Fox shows off that banging body that many rappers have praised in their songs. Her breasts look normal, and her face looks this side of human. I don't know about that dress though. I have never seen a celebrity whose every item of clothing looks like it comes from the ten dollar store. Every. Single. Item.

A close shot of Vivica's face in 2003 yields a shocking surprise The skin on her face looks tight, the curves of her cheeks, hallow and unnatural. This may be the last year that she looks even close to real, rocking red in a casual ensemble.

Giving a new meaning to the hair texture "wet and wavy,' Fox went to the Annual Soul Train Music Awards in 2004 with this hairdo shaped like brown over-cooked spaghetti. I am not even a hair stylist, and I am sure I could have blended her edges better than that. Note the 'Michael Jackson' cheeks.

By 2005, the shocking transformation in Vivica Fox's face was complete. In a gradual process that seemed to being in 2002, she went from being a brown-skinned cutie to having a face similar to a wax mask.

These Frankenstein-like breasts were suddenly on display, as Fox continued to wear the rather cheap-looking super-low-cut gowns that she has favored for her entire career. She looks like she needs a Hollywood stylist more than anyone. Is that the point of her new reality show? Note how even Bobby Brown looks carefully AWAY.
