Jamie Foxx has finally revealed the reasoning for his sudden 2023 hospitalization .
A video of the actor speaking to a group of restaurant patrons went viral on Monday July 1, where Foxx claimed that it all started with someone giving him an Advil for a headache.
But he insisted that everything that happened after that was allegedly a blur, saying, “Look, April 11 last year, bad headache, asked my boy for an Advil and I was gone for 20 days. I don’t remember anything. I’m in Atlanta, they told me—my sister and my daughter took me to the first doctor.”
“The next doctor said, ‘There’s something going on up there,’” he added, speaking to the crowd as he pointed to his head. “I won’t say it on camera… but it was.”
In May 2024, while accepting the Producers Award from the African American Film Critics Association, the 56-year-old expressed that he would talk in full detail about his health scare in a new comedy special . “Everybody wants to know what happened, and I’m going to tell you what happened, but I gotta do it my way. I’m going to do it in a funny way. I’m going to be on stage. We’re going back to the stand-up sort of roots,” he told the audience.
