By The Big Magazine Staff


Jamie Foxx has broken his silence after experiencing a “medical complication” weeks ago.

The Oscar-winning actor posted to Instagram on Wednesday afternoon, saying, “Appreciate all the love!! Feeling blessed.”



The comments section was immediately flooded by responses from celebrity friends like, Courtney Cox, DJ Khaled, Mary J Blige, and Killer Mike.



Foxx reportedly remains in an Atlanta hospital after falling ill three weeks ago. It’s unknown what the medical emergency was that landed the actor in the hospital and no information has been released about his condition.


On April 12, Foxx’s daughter Corinne posted to Instagram alerting the public of her father’s medical issue.


“We wanted to share that my father, Jamie Foxx, experienced a medical complication yesterday,” she wrote on behalf of the Foxx family.


“Luckily, due to quick action and great care, he is already on his way to recovery. We know how beloved he is and appreciate your prayers,” the statement read. “The family asks for privacy during this time.”


Foxx is the host of the popular game show “Beat Shazam,” which was “going into production just days before he was hospitalized,” according to TMZ.

Production started May 3 and Foxx was replaced by Nick Cannon as host, the site reported.

Corinne, who is a DJ on the show, is also not returning as she’s tending to her dad.


Foxx was also filming the movie “Back in Action” with Cameron Diaz before he was hospitalized. Filming has since resumed with his body double in his place, Page Six reported.
