Everything we know about Jamie Foxx's hospitalization
When was Foxx hospitalized?
Jamie Foxx was hospitalized in Georgia on April 12 after suffering from a “medical complication,” according to a post on his daughter’s Instagram.
Despite Foxx’s recent outings in Chicago, he is still “not 100%” recovered.
What are his family and friends saying?
“Masked Singer” host Nick Cannon asked his fans to speak “words of affirmation” for Foxx as he continues to recover.
Martin Lawrence told the media that Foxx was “doing better” and called Foxx “one of the best that we got in Hollywood.”
What was Foxx working on before being rushed to the hospital?
Before going to the hospital, Foxx was working on the movie “Back in Action” with actress Cameron Diaz.
“Beat Shazam,” the game show co-hosted by Foxx and his daughter Corinne, has started filming its new season and found another host to replace Fox, according to reports. Corinne will not be in the new season, as she will be staying by her father’s side at the hospital.
“We wanted to share that, my father, Jamie Foxx, experienced a medical complication yesterday,” the statement from the family said. “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.”
Meanwhile, a source told People on April 21 that the actor is “OK” but “still in the hospital.”
“Doctors are running tests, but he’s awake and alert,” the source added. “They’re keeping him under observation.”
Foxx was photographed filming “Back in Action” with Cameron Diaz, 50, just one day before he was rushed to the hospital. While he has been bedridden, production continued with his body double after a short pause.
However, “Beat Shazam,” the game show co-hosted by Foxx and Corinne, started filming its new season — but has found another host while Foxx is recovering, according to TMZ.
Corinne, who DJs on the show, also won’t be on the new season as she stays near her father in the hospital.
The Post has reached out to Foxx’s reps for an update on his condition.
Many of the actor’s celebrity friends have publicly shared their good wishes, including Kerry Washington, LeBron James, Martin Lawrence, and Nick Cannon.
