Jamie Foxx is back on stage.
The Oscar-winning actor and comedian, 56, performed a series of one-man shows in Atlanta this month, where he discussed the medical emergency he experienced last year. In an Instagram post on Monday , Foxx shared a gallery of photos from his performance, one of which showed him appearing to wipe away tears, and wrote that his “soul is filled with nothing but pure joy.”
“I had an opportunity to tell my side of the story and there was no better place than Atlanta Georgia,” he wrote. “I have to thank you Atlanta you showed up and you showed out, I haven’t been on stage in 18 years but I needed the stage and I needed an audience that was made up of nothing but pure love and that’s what you were.”
Foxx was hospitalized in April 2023 due to an unspecified health emergency. The actor and his family shared few details at the time, but in July, a video circulated on social media showing the “Django Unchained” star revealing some more information to fans. In the clip, he said he experienced a “bad headache” on April 11, 2023, and “asked my boy for an Advil.” After that, he said he “was gone for 20 days.”
