Just a few days ago, Jamie Foxx posted a video of himself living it up on a superyacht. The actor is currently in the midst of filming a new Netflix movie, Back In Action. The movie has been filming in London, where it has apparently experienced significant weather delays. It co-stars Cameron Diaz, who is making her return to Hollywood after an 8-year hiatus. Foxx himself convinced Diaz to co-star.
Things haven't exactly been smooth on set, however. Recently, sources revealed that Foxx was the target of a $40,000 scam. Allegedly, an employee on the film crew was the one orchestrating it. Foxx is not the only one who was targeted by the scam, however. Apparently, the person has tried to pull one over on multiple celebrities. Authorities haven't released the culprit's name, but reports say that they have been let go and an investigation has been opened. "This film has been a bit of a nightmare," the source said. It seems like that is probably the least of Jamie Foxx's worries at this point, though. The actor was hospitalized for a significant health scare.
Foxx's Health Scare Was Serious
Foxx's daughter, Corinne, broke the news in an Instagram post. "We wanted to share that, my father, Jamie Foxx, experienced [a] medical complication yesterday," she began, "Luckily, due to quick action and great care, he is already on his way to recovery." This is good news for Foxx, who seemed to be in great health until now. According to a TMZ "source," the situation was far more grave than the actor's daughter made it out to be. "We’re told his condition was serious enough that Jamie’s family — some of whom were not in town — came to the hospital," they said. "He’s communicating now, and that’s good news."
The exact nature of the complications is unclear. Luckily, it appears that the actor is now in stable condition, at least. It remains to be seen whether we will get any more information on what happened. Hopefully, Foxx makes a very speedy recovery. What do you think about the actor's hospitalization?
