Vivica A. Fox Tests Positive for Coronavirus, Misses Out on Hosting Emmys Red Carpet Special

Vivica A. Fox was supposed to be one of the co-hosts at E!’s Live from the Red Carpet special for the 2020 Emmy Awards, but she’s not there after testing positive for coronavirus.

Brad Goreski read a statement from Vivica during the event.

“I am terribly sorry I cannot be with my E! family tonight! Unfortunately, I have tested positive for the coronavirus. So, in an abundance of caution I am isolating myself at home,” Vivica said. “During these unprecedented times, it’s more important than ever that we follow all safety and health rules and guidelines to protect ourselves and each other.”

She added, “I’m sending my very best to Nina [Parker] and Brad, who I know will hold down the fort, and congratulations to all of tonight’s nominees! I look forward to seeing everyone again soon!”

Giuliana Rancic was also supposed to co-host the event, but she too tested positive for the virus. Read the statement that she just released.
