<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/jamie-foxx-makes-first-public-appearance-since-health-scare-i-couldnt-actually-walk">Jamie Foxx</a> has promised to open up in an upcoming stand-up special about what exactly he went through a year ago when he had to be hospitalized after a near-death health scare.
During the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/jamie-foxx-credits-god-for-finally-startin-to-feel-better-following-april-hospitalization">56-year-old</a> actor&#8217;s appearance on Sunday at the African American Film Critics Association (AAFCA), Foxx accepted the Producer&#8217;s Award and told everyone to &#8220;cherish&#8221; life and your loved ones, <a href="https://people.com/jamie-foxx-vows-to-address-medical-scare-while-accepting-aafca-award-8603808">People magazine</a> reported.
&#8220;I&#8217;m so thankful and I get emotional because it&#8217;s beyond the scope,&#8221; Foxx said. &#8220;I had some people in my life that really made sure I was here because it was dire straits.&#8221;
&#8220;I take things differently now because you just don&#8217;t know,&#8221; he <a href="https://x.com/extratv/status/1764753722599788812?s=20">added</a>. &#8220;Everybody wants to know what happened and I&#8217;m gonna tell you what happened but I got to do it in my way.&#8221;

&#8220;I&#8217;m going to do it in a funny way. We are going to be on stage,&#8221; Foxx continued. &#8220;We are going to go back to the stand-up roots. If you want to have a good time and laugh … come see me when we go take this thing out.&#8221;
The comedian promised that his upcoming special will have some things &#8220;people will love&#8221; but said there&#8217;s going to be other things that are guaranteed to &#8220;pull at your heart string.&#8221;
In December, the &#8220;Ray&#8221; <a href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/general-news/jamie-foxx-first-public-appearance-medical-issue-critics-choice-1235711833/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">actor</a> took the stage for the first time since being hospitalized in April 2023 and admitted six months earlier he &#8220;couldn&#8217;t actually walk to [the stage]. And I&#8217;m not a clone, I&#8217;m not a clone&#8221;
&#8220;I know a lot of people saying that I was cloned out there,&#8221; Foxx said, referencing some conspiracy theories that had been circulating online. 
&#8220;It feels good to be here,&#8221; he added. &#8220;I cherish every single minute now, it&#8217;s different. I wouldn&#8217;t wish what I went through on my worst enemy because it&#8217;s tough when it&#8217;s almost over, when you see the tunnel. I saw the tunnel, I didn&#8217;t see the light. It was hot in that tunnel, too; I don&#8217;t know where I was going. &#8216;S***, am I going to the right place?'&#8221;
&#8220;I have a new respect for life, I have a new respect for my art,&#8221; he added. &#8220;I watched so many movies and listened to so many songs trying to have the time go by. Don&#8217;t give up on your art, man, don&#8217;t give up on your art. When you realize that it could be over like that… I got to tell you don&#8217;t give up on your art and don&#8217;t let them take the art from you either.&#8221;
Since the actor was hospitalized, very little has been released as to what the health scare was that he had to deal with. His daughter, actress Corrine Foxx, first announced the news on Instagram.
In Corrine&#8217;s <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/actor-jamie-foxx-hospitalized-due-to-medical-complication">original post</a>, she wrote, &#8220;From the Foxx Family: We wanted to share that, my father, Jamie Foxx, experienced a medical complication yesterday. Luckily, due to quick action and great care, he is already on his way to recovery. We know how beloved he is and appreciate your prayers. The family ask for privacy during this time. Much love, The Foxx Family.&#8221;

Actor <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/jamie-foxx">Jamie Foxx</a> made his first public appearance since a <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/hospitals">health scare</a> in April, which led to him being hospitalized.
The 55-year-old has been spotted in public since then but hasn’t made any formal appearances until he turned up at the Critics Choice Association’s Celebration of Cinema and Television: Honoring Black, Latino and AAPI Achievements event on Monday night, per <a href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/general-news/jamie-foxx-first-public-appearance-medical-issue-critics-choice-1235711833/">The Hollywood Reporter</a>.
Foxx gave a speech after receiving a Vanguard Award for his performance in “The Burial.” The exact details of what happened haven’t been released to the public. Foxx said his sister, Deidra Dixon, and his daughter, Corinne Marie, quickly assisted him with getting the medical attention that he needed to save his life. The actor updated the audience on how he’s been feeling since the medical incident this spring. 
“I couldn’t do that six months ago, I couldn’t actually walk to [the stage]. And I’m not a clone, I’m not a clone. I know a lot of people saying that I was cloned out there,” Foxx told the assembled crowd, making reference to some conspiracy theories that have been circulating online.

“It feels good to be here,” he continued. “I cherish every single minute now, it’s different. I wouldn’t wish what I went through on my worst enemy because it’s tough when it’s almost over, when you see the tunnel. I saw the tunnel, I didn’t see the light. It was hot in that tunnel, too; I don’t know where I was going. ‘S***, am I going to the right place?&#8217;”
The “Django Unchained” star also discussed how his brush with death helped him be more appreciative of his life and career in general.
Foxx said, “I have a new respect for life, I have a new respect for my art. I watched so many movies and listened to so many songs trying to have the time go by. Don’t give up on your art, man, don’t give up on your art. When you realize that it could be over like that… I got to tell you don’t give up on your art and don’t let them take the art from you either.”
Foxx previously discussed what happened in a <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/jamie-foxx-breaks-silence-in-emotional-video-after-hospitalization-im-here-on-earth-because-of-god">video message</a> to fans posted in July. “I went to hell and back,” he said at the time. “And my road to recovery had some potholes as well. But I’m coming back and I’m able to work so I want to thank people that let me work.”

Jamie Foxx Credits God For 'Finally Startin To Feel’ Better Following April Hospitalization

Entertainer <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/jamie-foxx" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jamie Foxx</a> broke his silence in an emotional video late this week after being hospitalized back in April with a serious undisclosed medical emergency.
The 55-year-old actor, singer, and comedian did not disclose any specifics about the condition that he suffered other than to say he did not want people seeing him &#8220;with tubes running out of me.&#8221;
&#8220;I went through something that I thought I would never ever go through,&#8221; he said. &#8220;I know a lot of people were waiting, you know, wanting to hear updates, but to be honest with you, I just didn&#8217;t want you to see me like that, man. I want you to see me laughing, having a good time, partying, cracking a joke, doing a movie, television show. I didn&#8217;t want you to see me with tubes running out of me and, and trying to figure out if I was going to make it through.&#8221;
Foxx credited his sister Deidra Dixon and his daughter Corinne Marie with quickly getting him the medical attention that he needed to save his life.
&#8220;I cannot tell you how great it feels to have your family kick in in such a way, and y&#8217;all know they kept it airtight, they didn&#8217;t let anything out, they protected me and that&#8217;s what I hoped that everyone could have in moments like these,&#8221; he said.
Foxx slammed rumors that some have spread about his medical condition, dismissing them as false.
&#8220;I went to hell and back,&#8221; he said. &#8220;And my road to recovery had some potholes as well. But I&#8217;m coming back and I&#8217;m able to work so I want to thank people that let me work.&#8221;
Foxx then addressed the emotions that he expressed in his video, saying that he will from time-to-time break down crying in the future given the enormity of the crisis he experienced.

&#8220;And if you see me out from now on and every once in a while I just burst into tears, it&#8217;s because it&#8217;s been tough man. I was sick, man,&#8221; he said. &#8220;But now I&#8217;ve got my legs underneath, so you&#8217;re gonna see me out. But like I said, I just want you to remember me for the jokes that I crack, the movies that I make, some of them good, some of them ain&#8217;t.&#8221;
&#8220;I&#8217;m here on earth because of some great people,&#8221; he concluded. &#8220;I&#8217;m here on earth because of God, man. I love all y&#8217;all. I justed wanted to jump on here and let you [know] that I&#8217;m on my way back.&#8221;

World Premiere Of Netflix’s “Day Shift” – Arrivals

Jamie Foxx Breaks Silence In Emotional Video After Hospitalization: ‘I’m Here On Earth Because Of God’

Actor <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/jamie-foxx">Jamie Foxx</a> shared a photo with <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/entertainment">fans</a> on social media and teased “big things” coming in the future.
The 55-year-old actor and <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/celebrities">comedian</a> made headlines three months ago after being hospitalized for a “medical emergency.” Now, Foxx is starting to post on social media again after months of silence.
&#8220;Thankful for my @betmgm family and a great few nights in Vegas. We got BIG things coming soon,&#8221; the “Django Unchained” actor <a href="https://www.instagram.com/betmgm/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;ig_rid=04e159fb-3e87-4728-b55d-2837937744c2">posted</a> to Instagram on Thursday along with a photo of himself posing on a race car. The post is labeled as a paid promotion with ARIA Resort &amp; Casino. 
People Magazine <a href="https://people.com/jamie-foxx-posts-new-photo-after-medical-emergency-7502195">reported</a> that Foxx is in Las Vegas as he works on a campaign with sports betting company BetMGM. The actor will apparently star in the commercials promoting the brand during football season and after.
Foxx previously posted images on his Instagram in early May, telling fans how much their support meant to him, &#8220;Appreciate all the love!!! Feeling blessed.&#8221; 
Earlier in July, fans spotted the actor at a Topgolf driving range in Naperville, Illinois, and later waving to fans while sailing on a boat. “Boat life…Celebrating summer with [brownsugarbbn] Stay blessed!” Foxx shared to Twitter at the time, as The Daily Wire previously <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/jamie-foxx-seen-over-the-weekend-for-first-time-since-health-emergency-scare">reported</a>. 
<a href="https://onelink.to/dwapp" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" aria-describedby="sk-tooltip-9096" data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://onelink.to/dwapp&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1690029339199000&amp;usg=AOvVaw1aBZKXZOsvkW3aRCKp8ThD">CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP</a>
Not much is known about what caused Foxx to be admitted to the hospital. His daughter Corrine announced the news in a now-deleted Instagram post, writing, “Luckily, due to quick action and great care, he is already on his way to recovery.” 
The actor’s rep denied claims that Foxx was experiencing medical issues as a side effect of getting a COVID booster shot, calling the allegations “completely inaccurate.”
Foxx’s friend Nick Cannon said that it did not surprise him that Foxx was keeping details about the medical emergency private. “One thing I’ve always respected about how Jamie’s moved throughout his entire career, if you’ve noticed, he’s always been somebody who is extremely professional and extremely private,” Cannon said in June. “&#8230; I believe when he’s ready, he’s going to address the awaiting fans in the world [about his health scare] the way that only he can.”

Actor <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/jamie-foxx">Jamie Foxx</a> was seen multiple times over the weekend, his first public appearances after he experienced a “medical complication” in April.
The 55-year-old <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/celebrities">star</a> was first spotted at a Topgolf driving range in Naperville, Illinois, on Saturday night, per <a href="https://www.tmz.com/2023/07/10/jamie-foxx-topgolf-swing-recovery-video-boat-chicago/">TMZ</a>. Witnesses said Foxx appeared to have a strong golf swing. 
Then, the Academy Award winner was seen on Sunday pumping his fist in the air and waving to <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/entertainment">fans</a> while aboard a boat in the Chicago area, per a video shared by <a href="https://www.tmz.com/2023/07/09/jamie-foxx-waves-fans-boat-first-sighting-since-hospitalization/">TMZ</a>. Fans have been worried about the actor’s condition ever since the medical incident earlier this spring.
Foxx also updated his Twitter with a post that said, “Boat life…Celebrating summer with [brownsugarbbn] Stay blessed!”
The actor’s rep previously denied reports that Foxx’s medical issues were the result of getting a COVID booster shot, calling the allegations &#8220;completely inaccurate.&#8221;

Foxx has not provided any updates on his health since he was first hospitalized, but some of his Hollywood friends have been sharing information periodically. 
“One thing I’ve always respected about how Jamie’s moved throughout his entire career, if you’ve noticed, he’s always been somebody who is extremely professional and extremely private,” Nick Cannon <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/nick-cannon-says-pal-jamie-foxx-will-address-fans-concerns-about-health-scare-when-hes-ready">said</a> in June.

“I mean, you don’t ever really hear anything other than just the great work that he puts forth as a professional and the fact that, you know, he’s handled this situation with the same manner, you only can respect that,” he added. “I believe when he’s ready, he’s going to address the awaiting fans in the world [about his health scare] the way that only he can.”
“I’m probably in the same boat as you in that same sense of just knowing that, you know, as a friend, just being as respectful as I can, I don’t pry,” Cannon continued. “I don’t ask any other questions. And other than the information that’s given to me and, you know, what’s asked of me.”
The actor was admitted to the hospital April 12 for an unknown condition. His daughter Corrine announced the news in a now-deleted Instagram post. &#8220;Luckily, due to quick action and great care, he is already on his way to recovery,&#8221; she said.

&#8220;I mean, you don&#8217;t ever really hear anything other than just the great work that he puts forth as a professional and the fact that, you know, he&#8217;s handled this situation with the same manner, you only can respect that,&#8221; he added. &#8220;I believe when he&#8217;s ready, he&#8217;s going to address the awaiting fans in the world [about his health scare] the way that only he can.&#8221;
&#8220;I&#8217;m probably in the same boat as you in that same sense of just knowing that, you know, as a friend, just being as respectful as I can, I don&#8217;t pry,&#8221; Cannon continued. &#8220;I don&#8217;t ask any other questions. And other than the information that&#8217;s given to me and, you know, what&#8217;s asked of me.&#8221;
Cannon also said &#8220;the information [Foxx&#8217;s family has put out is what] they want to be out there.&#8221;

&#8220;I was definitely one of those people initially with like the heavy-handed prayers… sending positive energy, love, and prayers,&#8221; the TV personality said. &#8220;And they were like, &#8216;Yo, we appreciate all of that, but we got it.&#8217; And, you know, Jamie&#8217;s happy with the job that I did on &#8216;Beat Shazam.'&#8221;
Foxx finally broke his silence three weeks after his family confirmed he had been hospitalized for what they called &#8220;medical complications.&#8221; In the 55-year-old actor&#8217;s post on Instagram, he didn&#8217;t address his current condition or the cause of his hospital stay.
However, he did share a message of praise to all who have been praying for him.
&#8220;Appreciate all the love!!!&#8221; Foxx&#8217;s <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/CrysCZmPXWq/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">post</a> read. &#8220;Feeling blessed.&#8221; He has not made any other posts on his social media since May 3.
On April 12, the actor was admitted to the hospital for an undisclosed condition. At the time, the news was confirmed by Foxx&#8217;s daughter on Instagram.
In actress Corinne Foxx&#8217;s since-deleted post, she wrote, &#8220;From the Foxx Family: We wanted to share that, my father, Jamie Foxx, experienced a medical complication yesterday,&#8221; as previously <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/actor-jamie-foxx-hospitalized-due-to-medical-complication" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a>.
&#8220;Luckily, due to quick action and great care, he is already on his way to recovery,&#8221; she added. &#8220;We know how beloved he is and appreciate your prayers. The family asks for privacy during this time. Much love, The Foxx Family.&#8221;

Boxing legend Mike Tyson appears to have revealed the medical emergency that actor <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/jamie-foxx" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jamie Foxx</a> recently suffered that landed him in the hospital.
During a recent episode of the PBD Podcast, Tyson, 56, who has been friends with Foxx, 55, for decades, claimed that the “mystery” health emergency was a stroke.
&#8220;He’s not feeling well,&#8221; Tyson <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bNeyzh4njt0" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a>. &#8220;They said a stroke. I have no idea what happened to him.&#8221;
The New York Post <a href="https://nypost.com/2023/05/23/mike-tyson-reveals-jamie-foxxs-mystery-health-condition/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a> that the facility that Foxx has been receiving treatment at specializes in treating adults with “severe complex conditions,” including stroke recovery.
Foxx was hospitalized on April 12 for what was described at the time as being an undisclosed “medical complication,” according to an Instagram post shared by his actress daughter, Corinne.
Foxx suffered the emergency while in Atlanta shooting his newest film “Back In Action” with costars Cameron Diaz and Glenn Close. Some family members flew in from out of town to be with him shortly after the emergency happened.
“From the Foxx Family: We wanted to share that, my father, Jamie Foxx, experienced a medical complication yesterday,&#8221; Corinne Foxx wrote. &#8220;Luckily, due to quick action and great care, he is already on his way to recovery. We know how beloved he is and appreciate your prayers. The family asks for privacy during this time. Much love, The Foxx Family.”
No symptoms or possible diagnoses were mentioned in either Corinne’s post or any subsequent reporting — and no indication was given as to how long the “Any Given Sunday” actor might need to remain under a doctor’s care.

Actor Jamie Foxx has been hospitalized since mid-April with what his family has only referenced as a &#8220;complication&#8221; — and now, with no new information regarding his condition, a new host has been selected for his game show &#8220;Beat Shazam.&#8221;
According to a <a href="https://www.tmz.com/2023/05/03/jamie-foxx-remains-hospital-pray-for-jamie/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">report</a> published Wednesday by entertainment site TMZ, the new season of the game show is set to begin filming immediately and a new host — who was not named — has been selected to take Foxx&#8217;s place. Foxx&#8217;s daughter Corinne, who cohosts the show with her dad, has also bowed out for the time being in order to stay with her father.
The same report indicated that, while there was no new information regarding the Oscar-winner&#8217;s condition, sources close to the family were urging friends and fans to continue to &#8220;pray for Jamie.&#8221;

Nick Cannon gave fans an update on how his pal actor Jamie Foxx was doing after being hospitalized nearly two weeks ago for what Foxx&#8217;s family called &#8220;medical complications.&#8221;
The 42-year-old TV host told <a href="https://www.etonline.com/interview-nick-cannon-gives-update-on-jamie-foxx-amid-hospitalization-exclusive-203191">Entertainment Tonight</a> on Sunday that the 55-year-old actor is &#8220;awake&#8221; and &#8220;alert&#8221; following reports on April 12 that the actor was admitted to the hospital for an undisclosed condition.

&#8220;Man, I&#8217;m praying,&#8221; Cannon told the outlet. &#8220;You see, I posted on Instagram. I literally have been saying prayers out loud. Words of affirmation for my big brother.&#8221;

Nick Cannon Gives Fans Update On Jamie Foxx After Pal Was Hospitalized For ‘Medical Complications’

Medical

Actor Jamie Foxx&#8217;s newest movie – a Netflix project titled &#8220;Back in Action&#8221; — may be forced to wrap without the star as he continues to recover from an undisclosed medical emergency.
According to a Thursday <a href="https://people.com/movies/jamie-foxx-back-in-action-cancels-day-of-filming-medical-emergency-sources/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">report</a> from People Magazine, producers have canceled scheduled filming of at least one scene that was set to take place on Sunday due to &#8220;changes in production&#8221; – but filming was supposed to go on as scheduled on Monday and Tuesday.
Entertainment website TMZ <a href="https://www.tmz.com/2023/04/14/jamie-foxx-movie-back-in-action-hospitalized-medical-emergency/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a> that Foxx had just eight days left of filming — and added that despite the fact that Foxx has not yet been released from the hospital, several sources had said the project was still going to wrap in the space of about a week.
After shutting down production entirely on Wednesday, producers reportedly used a stand-in for the &#8220;Any Given Sunday&#8221; actor on Thursday — and if production is to continue without him, that could be the way his scenes are wrapped. Additionally, certain scenes could potentially be cut in order to avoid the need for his presence on set.
&#8220;Back in Action&#8221; marks the first return to the big screen of actress Cameron Diaz, 50, since 2014&#8217;s &#8220;Annie&#8221; remake – and reports have indicated that Foxx, who starred alongside her in that film, was instrumental in getting her onboard for &#8220;Back in Action.&#8221; Veteran actress Glenn Close, 76, also stars in the upcoming project.
As The Daily Wire <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/actor-jamie-foxx-hospitalized-due-to-medical-complication" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a> on Wednesday, Foxx&#8217;s family announced via his daughter Corinne&#8217;s Instagram account that he had suffered a &#8220;medical complication&#8221; a day prior and had been rushed to the hospital for treatment.

TMZ <a href="https://www.tmz.com/2023/04/12/jamie-foxx-hospitalized-suffers-medical-complication-recovering/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a> a short time later that the actor was &#8220;doing a lot better,&#8221; responding to family and joking around, but that he was going to remain under a doctor&#8217;s care while tests were being done. Initial reports indicated that the emergency had prompted family members who were not in town to fly in to be by his side.
