Last April, one of the most talented men in America, Jamie Foxx, suffered a medical scare that led to the general public not learning what happened or how serious the situation was. Jamie has briefly touched on the topic but has been tight-lipped overall.
As previously reported, the comedian shared that what started as a “bad headache” ended with him being “gone for 20 days” with no recollection of what happened.
