00:07Jamie Foxx is opening up about his health scare.
00:11The Academy Award winner told a group of people in Phoenix, Arizona on June 29th that things
00:15escalated quickly after he experienced a headache in 2023.

00:28days, I don't remember anyone.

00:35doctors.
00:36They told me I'm in Atlanta, they told me.
00:37My sister and my daughter took me to the first doctor.
00:38Next doctor said, there's something going on up there.
00:39I won't say it on camera, I won't say it on camera.
00:40Yeah, I don't want to say it on camera.

00:59Ray star was hospitalized last April following an undisclosed medical complication while
01:03in Atlanta, filming his upcoming Netflix movie Back in Action.
01:07A month later, in May, the actor broke his silence on Instagram, saying how he appreciates
01:11all the love, adding that he's feeling blessed.

01:53I've been through some things.
01:54You know, it's crazy.
01:55I couldn't do that six months ago.
01:56I couldn't actually walk.
01:58And I'm not a clone.

02:37You know what's interesting?
02:38First of all, I want to say to my black folks, man, thank you so much for holding me down
02:44all the time.
02:45It means a lot because I always say to black folks, it's harder to impress black folks.
02:53It is.
02:54Because, you know, black people, every time you get an award, there's always somebody
02:59out there that says, man, my cousin did the same thing.
03:03I don't give a fuck about that.
03:05My cousin did the same shit.
03:07Right now, my cousin did it right now.
03:13So it feels good to be here.
03:15I cherish every single minute.
03:19Now, it's different.
03:21You know, it's different.
03:22You know, it's beyond.
03:24I wouldn't wish what I went through on my worst enemy.
03:30Because it's tough when you almost, when it's almost over, when you see the tunnel.
03:39I saw the tunnel.
03:40I didn't see the light.
03:43It was hot in that tunnel.
03:44I don't know where I was going.
03:47Shit, am I going to the right place?
03:52I just see the devil going, come on, man.
