Despite the specifics of his recent illness being kept private, Jamie Foxx has become the figurehead for an anti-vax movement after a rumor went viral online.
The actor was suffering from "medical complications," according to his daughter Corinne Foxx, and the family were spotted visiting him in a Chicago physical rehabilitation facility in May. With just that information and an unsubstantiated rumor started by a notable gossip columnist, some people are saying Foxx suffered a stroke brought on by a blood clot caused by a COVID vaccination.
Foxx's current condition is unknown, although the actor did thank his fans for their support with an Instagram update on May 3, reportedly three weeks after falling ill. "Appreciate all the love!!! Feeling blessed," he wrote in a post.
Newsweek has reached out to Jamie Foxx's representatives via email for further comment. This article will be updated if we receive information back from them.
Podcast host and gossip columnist A.J. Benza claims to know exactly what happened to Foxx, though, as he shared information from his source "somebody in the room" on May 30.
Appearing on the Ask Dr. Drew podcast, Benza said: "Jamie had a blood clot in his brain after he got the shot. He did not want the shot, but the movie he was on, he was pressured to get it. The blood clot in the brain caused him at that point to be partially paralyzed and blind."
The claim has been fact checked by Newsweek, and was found to be wholly unverified, but the rumor has still gone viral online with a number of reputable Twitter users circulating it.

I’ve said for a while that it’ll take a high profile celebrity or powerful politician to be adversely impacted for action to start gathering steam. We need Nuremberg style trials for this vaccine, and Fauci should be the first.
Some wise up slower than others.
There’s a very easy way to clear all this up. Jamie Foxx, stand up and tell the world that Redd Foxx is not your blood relative!
He just needs to walk out and tell the world he’s fine and it wasn’t the vax.
Problem solved.
And how do we know Jamie Fox wrote Appreciate all the love!!! Feeling blessed”?
He did not want to take the shot but the movie producer forced him to and had a clot two days later.
People aren't anti-vaxx, they're anti Jim Jones Jab. The Jim Jones Jab is NOT a vaccine, regardless of what the CDC changed their definition to. It doesn't stop COVID-1984, it doesn't "lessen the symptoms", and doesn't "prevent you from spreading" it.
I think the first high profile person was the Buffalo Bills football player, who collapse on the field and refuse to address his diagnosis after his hospital release.
Given what Anderson Cooper got from Pfizer to spread their pro-vaxx propaganda, maybe she’s expecting an offer.
He’s doing GREAT, he’s just camera-shy. /s
Dollars to donuts, that check cleared before the daughter made her statement.
Even if the worthless newsweak confirmed this as true they’d never report it. They’d cover it up and bury it forever.
Considering his now, and likely, permanent injuries from the vaxx and not likely going to work again in any strong capacity, it’s not surprising that he’s become a central figure in this.
“He’s dead Jim!”
Waiting until the truth comes out.
Halyna Hutchins got the shot from her producer which killed her and the family successfully sued over that.
Where are all the pro-vax FReepers who claim they have had no problems from the clot shot.
