Jamie Foxx says he’s going to finally address what exactly happened to him that landed him in the hospital last year — but it sounds like it’ll be a televised special of some sort.
The comedian/actor was accepting a Producers Award Sunday night in L.A. at the African American Film Critics Association Awards — where he delivered a touching speech and discussed how his whole view on life has changed for the better after what he went through.
Of course, he’s referring to the health scare that sidelined him for most of 2023 — a mystery ailment that never quite got cleared up … but which he says has given him new perspective.
He was cracking jokes while addressing this, but at one point — he made a revelation … namely, that he was going to discuss the details of his hospitalization in due time. The only caveat, he says, is that he’s going to do it his way … meaning, with humor and comedy.
The way he talks about it here … it seems like Jamie wants to do this in a stand-up setting.
No timeline was offered on when this might be coming to fruition — but it’s the first time we’ve heard Jamie promise to tackle the issue head on … as there’s been lots of rumors and speculation, which he’s well aware of. We’re talking al the clone conspiracy chatter here.
One other highlight from Jamie’s time at the event … he posed with Jonathan Majors and Meagan Good — both of whom attended the AAFCA, and who looked like a happy couple.
Jonathan’s fresh off a criminal conviction … but he’s carrying on with his life regardless.
As for Jamie … he’s obviously still hilarious — that much was clear from this event, as he’s back to his old self. It’ll be interesting to see if/when he spills the tea on what went down.
