NEWSTV Weekly Recap: The Cougar is in love!

April 17 2009, Published 6:00 a.m. ET
My male counterpart Oliver Coleman may have gotten with The Cougar this week.
But I got to sit down and chat with the hot new dating reality’s series host, Vivica A. Fox.
And yes, Vivica is spilling the beans: The Cougar, Stacey Anderson, is in love (sorry, Oli!).
“She’s head over heels,” Vivica dished to me during the reality dating show's premiere party at Cibar in NYC.
“He was, when he first started the show, one of my absolute favorites,” she teased.
As for the five guys kicked off Wednesday night, Vivica says their elimination was a no-brainer.
“I knew they weren’t going to make it. They literally stuck out like a sore thumb,” she declared.
Vivica, 44, who has dated her fair share of younger men in the past (remember 50 Cent?), had just done another hosting gig when she scored The Cougar.
“The producers told me they were not only fans of Glam God, but of my work on Curb Your Enthusiasm,” Vivica said.
