Jamie Foxx kicked off the new year with an Instagram reel expressing deep gratitude and excitement for what’s ahead. Reflecting on the past, particularly his health journey after suffering a brain bleed and stroke in 2023, Foxx thanked his fans for supporting his latest Netflix comedy special, What Had Happened Was…. In the reel, he shared how thankful he is, stating, “I ain’t gotta tell you — how grateful I am,” while also focusing on the positive, saying he has “all these jokes” and “all this joy” to share.
Looking ahead to 2025, Foxx emphasized his new mantra: to only love and remove hate from his life, reflecting his perspective after a life-changing health crisis. “I’m too blessed to be stressed,” he declared, a phrase he’s been using to maintain a positive outlook despite challenges, including an altercation at his birthday dinner that left him injured. Foxx responded with resilience, reinforcing his belief that the devil is busy, but he’s focused on staying positive.
Foxx has a busy year ahead, with the release of his action comedy Back in Action alongside Cameron Diaz on January 17, 2025. The movie follows two retired CIA spies who are pulled back into the field when their cover is blown. Meanwhile, What Had Happened Was… is available to stream on Netflix for fans to enjoy.
