In an emotional three-minute video, Jamie Foxx finally broke his silence about his recent hospitalization and recovery journey, three months after being hospitalized for an unspecified “medical complication”. The 55-year-old actor assured fans that he is not blind or paralyzed, dispelling rumors that have been circulating during his absence from the public eye.
With tears in his eyes, Foxx shared, “I went through something I never thought I would go through. I know a lot of people [were] waiting or wanting to hear an update, but to be honest with you, I didn’t want you to see me like that, man.” He further expressed his desire for fans to remember him for his laughter, jokes, movies, and songs, not for his vulnerable moments during his health battle.
The Oscar winner revealed that his recovery has been challenging, describing it as going through “hell and back.” However, he expressed gratitude towards his family, especially his sister, Deondra Dixon, and his daughter, Corinne, 29, for providing immense support and “saving” his life during this difficult time.
In a touching moment, Foxx demonstrated that his eyes were working perfectly fine, dispelling any rumors about blindness, and assured fans that he is not paralyzed. The heartfelt video was met with an outpouring of support from his followers, including fellow celebrities like LL Cool J.
Recently, Foxx returned to work, filming a commercial in Las Vegas, showcasing his commitment to getting back into the swing of things. While his health journey has been a rollercoaster, he expressed excitement about resuming his work and being seen by his fans once again.
The actor’s recent health scare also raised questions about the status of his movie project, “Back in Action,” in which he stars alongside Cameron Diaz. While the majority of filming is completed, there have been some setbacks during post-production, leaving the future of the project uncertain.
Jamie Foxx’s candid video serves as a reminder of the strength and resilience he has shown throughout his career. With the love and support of his family and fans, Foxx is determined to overcome the challenges he faced and continue making a positive impact on the entertainment industry.
