Jamie Foxx called President Barack Obama “our lord and savior” while presenting at the2012 Soul Train Awards in Las Vegas, Nev.
“It’s like church over here. It’s like church in here. First of all, give an honor to God and our lord and savior Barack Obama, Barack Obama,” Foxx said.
The comment by the comedian and actor was received warmly with shouts and applause from the audience.
Foxx has long been an advocate for Obama, as have many other celebrities, such as Beyoncé, Jay-Z, Eva Longoria and George Clooney.
Jay-Z performed at Obama’s final rally in Ohio prior to his reelection. Longoria, Clooney, Beyoncé and her husband, Jay-Z, are among notable stars who have hosted fundraisers in support of Obama being elected for a second term.
On election night, Katy Perry wrote, “The people have the power! Proud to stand by you for four more years,” after Obama tweeted to his followers, “This happened because of you. Thank you.”
Avid supporter Eva Longoria wrote, “Amazing speech by @BarackObama reelected for his 2nd term! America is and can be united for the greater good of all Americans!"
Lady Gaga wrote, “I just got off the stage in Columbia!! Congratulations Mr. President @BarackObama We are so proud to be an American tonight! Yes!! Yes! Yes!!”

Hey Shamie - How come your lord and savior didn’t stop Hurrican Sandy?

Too bad. Liked his performance as Ray Charles in “Ray,” but I doubt I’ll be giving him any of my hard earned money anytime soon.
Expect the half hearted apology and the “I was joking” explanation in 3-2-1...
RE: How come your lord and savior didn’t stop Hurrican Sandy?
Shamie: “It was the Lord’s will for it to happen.” :)
Well, they have their religion and I have mine.
And all this time I’ve been following Jesus like a sucker.
Why believe in a dead messiah when I have a live one right here?
He feeds the hungry with food stamps.
He heals the sick with Obamacare.
Think about that while you’re worshiping your dead god. :)
Now why don’t you racist, sexist, homophobic bigots go pay your taxes? The messiah’s work isn’t cheap. :)
I always thought that was Ronald Reagan......Liberals stealing from us again.....
These people are trash, and they want a dictator. Now they have one.
“America is and can be united for the greater good of all Americans!”
Obamazombie speaks. Not in this lifetime baby. No quarter.
I thought you were using the British pronunciation, as in “My Fair Lady”.
Jamie, you have my deepest sympathies.
I am not going to say what I really want to ....but what a idiot. A shame too. I like his acting. He was hilarious on the TV Living Color.
Leni Reifenstahl would be so proud of her Hollywood brothers and sisters.
Jamie is hoping for a miracle from his “lord and savior” one that would fix his career.
These are the kinds of people who need to be locked up in mental institutions. A gang of treasonous low-lifes without decency.
The Secular Left is so desperate to find a greater meaning to life they’ll latch onto even the most mediocre of politicians to be their “saviour”. It’s tragically funny to watch intelligent people act like this ...
