Jamie Foxx marked his 57th birthday with a private dinner that turned unsettling after an incident at Mr. Chow in Beverly Hills. The renowned actor, celebrated for his performances in Ray and Django Unchained, was dining with his daughters, Corinne and Anelise, as well as his former partner Kristin Grannis when the night took a drastic turn.
What began as a celebratory affair quickly escalated when a glass was allegedly thrown from another table, hitting Foxx in the mouth. A spokesperson for the actor validated the occurrence, stating, “Jamie Foxx was at his birthday dinner when someone from another table threw a glass that hit him in the mouth. He had to receive stitches and is on the mend. The situation has been reported to law enforcement.”
An unexpected breach of decorum during a celebration
Law enforcement responded promptly, but by the time they arrived, Foxx had already departed from the restaurant. An assault report has been filed, yet information about the assailant or the motive remains vague. Mr. Chow has not yet commented on the incident.
A strong bounce back after health challenges
This unfortunate incident surfaces after Foxx’s inspiring recovery from a significant health issue in 2023, during which he experienced a stroke linked to a brain bleed. He candidly discussed the profound emotional and physical impacts of his experience in his recent Netflix special, What Had Happened Was…, revealing his struggles with memory impairment, mobility, and the vital support from his family throughout his healing process.
