Viola Davis Isn't Down With Her Daughter's Christmas List

Viola Davis Isn't Down With Daughter's Christmas List: "You're Not Getting Half the Stuff"

Viola Davis's 10-year-old daughter Genesis is out of luck after drafting her first-ever Christmas list. During a recent interview on Jimmy Kimmel Live, the Ma Rainey's Black Bottom actress said her daughter's holiday wishes were a little too extravagent this year. "She had things on that list where I had to say . . . I don't care how much money you think Mommy has, 98 percent of the stuff on this list, you're not going to get," Viola told Jimmy.

Apparently, Genesis's big-ticket items included an iPhone and a camera with a tripod. "I don't care how nice you are," she joked. "You're not getting half the stuff on this list. That's the kind of mommy I am." Watch the funny exchange above at the 3:11 mark, and someone send Genesis's wishlist to Santa, ASAP.
