Not content with just having a quiet post-Broadway meal at the restaurant, West directed “an entire photo shoot” starring Fox at the eatery.
“The whole restaurant loved it and cheered us on while it was happening,” the actress said inInterview.
West then had a “surprise” planned.
“I’m still in shock. Ye had an entire hotel suite full of clothes. It was every girl’s dream come true. It felt like a real Cinderella moment. I don’t know how he did it, or how he got all of it there in time. But I was so surprised,” she added. “Like, who does things like this on a second date? Or any date!”
West, wine in hand, watches on, seemingly approving looks. And he clearly approved as in other photos Fox, clad in her new look, straddles the rapper on the floor.
