Jamie Foxx was filled with pure joy after returning to the stage

Jamie Foxx is filled with ‘pure joy’ after returning to the stage following his 2023 medical emergency.

The ‘Django Unchained’ actor, 56, was hospitalized in April last year due to an unspecified health condition, and after he and his family spent months keeping quiet about the details of the illness, a video surfaced in July of the star telling fans she had a “bad headache” on April 11 and “asked my kid for an Advil,” prompting “he was gone for 20 days.”

Jamie once again updated fans during one of his solo shows that kicked off in Atlanta, Georgia this month.

He uploaded an Instagram post on Monday (14.10.24) showing a gallery of photos from his performance, one of which showed him appearing to wipe away tears.

Jamie also said on the social media platform that “her soul is filled with nothing but pure joy.”

“I had the opportunity to tell my side of the story and there was no better place than Atlanta Georgia. I have to thank you Atlanta for showing up and speaking up, I haven’t come up in 18 years on stage but he needed the stage and he needed an audience that was nothing but pure love and that’s what you were he added.

“I don’t remember anything… my sister and daughter took me to the first doctor. “They gave me a cortisone shot. The next doctor said, ‘There’s something up there,'” Jamie added to fans in the video that surfaced in July about his illness.

“Everybody wants to know what happened, and I’m going to tell you what happened, but I have to do it my way. I’m going to do it in a fun way.” Jamie said in March that he would address the incident on stage, speaking at an African American Film Critics Association awards luncheon.

Jamie later announced a one-man show and said he would be sharing his “journey through a serious health scare, full of humor, heart and inspiration.”

But in his Instagram post on Monday he cryptically described his show not as a comedy, but “an artistic explanation” of something that “went very wrong”.
