World famous actor Jamie Foxx suffered a blood clot in his brain, and now, it’s speculated that the clot has left him blind and paralyzed. In a potentially unfortunate turn of events surrounding Foxx’s mysterious illness, a Hollywood journalist claims that a well-placed source told him that Fox suffered the severe medical episode after being pressured to get the COVID vaccine.
In an interview with Dr. Drew, veteran journalist A.J. Benza said, “Jamie had a blood clot in his brain after he got the shot. He didn’t want the shot, but the movie he was in, he was pressured to get it. The blood clot in the brain caused him at that point to be partially paralyzed and blind.” Benza asserted that his source is “someone in the room” linked to Foxx’s treatment.
It’s essential to highlight that Benza’s report is speculation and has not been verified by a reputable source, as a spokesperson for Foxx has not commented on the situation. In April, Foxx was hospitalized for a “medical complication,” though the medical condition hasn’t been identified. He suffered the setback while working on his film “Back in Action” alongside Cameron Diaz. The film’s production has continued with a body double instead of Foxx.
Foxx’s friend, Charles E. Alston, asked for prayers for the actor on social media, though his family asserted that Foxx was “already on his way to recovery” due to “quick action” and “great care.” However, other unnamed sources claimed that Foxx’s family was “preparing for the worst” after his hospitalization.
One source said, “Jamie’s people are saying he’s doing okay and improving while doctors try to get to the bottom of his problems, but he wouldn’t be in a hospital this long if he was anything close to okay.”
In response to these reports, Foxx’s daughter Corrine took to social media, saying, “Sad to see how the media runs wild. My dad has been out of the hospital for weeks, recuperating. In fact, he was playing pickleball yesterday. Thanks for everyone’s prayers and support. We have an exciting work announcement coming next week too!”
However, Benza says the report of Foxx playing pickleball is “all lies” and “baloney.” He said, “I am thinking, ‘Is that why he blew up on the set a week before this medical emergency happened? Is that why he fired three or four people because he had had it with these mandates?’” He continued, “If you read into what they were saying early on, ‘He is communicating with us.’ That doesn’t mean talking. That could be anything. Writing. Sign language. I know those little code words.”
Benza concluded, “Then you tell me your father is playing pickleball; give me a break. There is a great shroud of secrecy around Jamie Foxx.” Dr. Drew, a practicing physician, added his thoughts, saying, “Blood in the brain is a cerebral bleed. It is not a stroke. A stroke is a blood clot in an artery to the brain that cuts off the blood supply to the brain, and the brain dies.”
He continued, “It has been widely known that he had a stroke, right? They have said stroke many times. To say it is a blood clot in the brain, it is a stroke. It is a blood clot in an artery that cuts off the supply; that part of the brain is dead. It has very serious consequences. It depends on which artery and what the anatomy of that artery is to what parts of the brain and what not.”
While these reports surrounding Jamie Foxx’s health are merely unverified speculation, we should continue to pray for his healing and hope for a positive update from his family soon. Let’s pray:
Dear God, please continue to watch over Jamie Foxx and his family. While we’re unsure of his medical condition, we know You are in control and will heal him with Your tremendous power. As the world speculates on Foxx’s condition, please comfort his family and allow them to focus on his healing. In Jesus’ name, we pray, amen.
