Viola Davis made her 60th birthday an unforgettable event by jetting off to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.
The two-time Academy Award winner celebrated her August 11 birthday in true Hollywood fashion, showcasing her incredible physique in a sleek orange one-piece swimsuit. It was a perfect way to soak up the sun and relax with friends, marking not just another year, but a significant chapter in her life.
Davis debuted a striking short crop of red-tinged hair, complementing her vibrant swimsuit. The actress completed her stunning beach look with large, gold hoop earrings that added a dash of glam to her casual attire. Comfortable yet stylish, she effortlessly exuded confidence while lounging on a chair, engaging in lively conversations with her companions. When it got a bit breezy, she opted for a fashionable patchwork-patterned cover-up and oversized black-framed eyeglasses, showcasing her flair for personal style.
Davis’s birthday festivities came just days after a significant achievement in her career. On August 8, she received an honorary Doctorate of Fine Arts degree from the AFI Conservatory in Los Angeles, presented to her by director Gina Prince-Bythewood, who worked with her on the film The Woman King. This accolade highlights Davis’s immense contributions to the film industry and her ongoing dedication to her craft.
In an interview with People just before her birthday, Viola shared her thoughts on making this milestone special. She expressed the importance of honoring her younger self, stating, “I always saw her as damaged, but she wasn’t. She had a lot of beautiful qualities in her.” As she reflected on turning 60, she revealed her desire to be remembered for her proficiency and impact in the industry. “There’s something deep within me that wants to be good at what I do,” she emphasized while showcasing her unwavering commitment to excellence.
