Act better! Academy Award-winner Jamie Foxx takes a dig at Will Smith's Oscar boycott

[MartyMcFly]

Yeah like I said I don't think the Smiths are being completely genuine with their outage. But if you want to show unity sometimes saying your opinion publicly needs to be bypassed.

I don't think Jamie has ever given a damn about showing unity for real. And I don't mean that in a bad way. But then again maybe it's just because it's will. I don't think anyone has ever believed their boycott seemed genuine. Aunt Viv called them on it and most people did. Let's boycott when Will is in contention but care less about it when he's not. I get it.

I'm not mad at the boycott is it is true. Hollywood/the Oscars are racist. The Smith's may be disingenuous but let them cook, shyt is working. The Oscars name is mud on this issue. Which is good for everyone.

You know when Jamie Foxx made Any Given Sunday and it was rumored he and LL shot the fair one I saw him on some late night show Arsenio I believe and he downplayed it and said something along the lines of he would not get in a public spat with another Black dude. He would do shyt but behind closed doors. I always admired that stance. Seems he forgot. lol
I actually do think Jada is only mad because Will didn't get nominated she's not REALLY upset about racial discrimination. But still Jaime should follow his own advice and let the Smith's apply that pressure. The Oscars can fend for themselves.

Breh didn't downplay that out of any racial solidarity. He downplayed it because he got his ass kicked. shyt was like the Fresh Prince episode where Will was telling Riddikk Bowe that Blacks had to stick together so he didn't catch that work.

Jamie Foxx has always promoted the white women/light skin are better shyt on his radio show so This shyt is all jokes though, dude is a comedian if he's nothing else.

I liked the sentiment I guess I don't know enough about dude to say whether he was being truthful.

Will was pretty damn great in The Pursuit of Happiness. He should have won that year but it was too uplifting

CraKKKers saw that shyt and were flabbergasted

"Thats not how it should end."

I thought Will was better in that movie. Foxx is probably the better actor overall though. His best performance may have been in Collateral low key.

I think Jamie was just kidding, but still..

Will Smith looked out for Jamie back in the day.

Remember when he roasted that comedian cause he was messing with him " You got off to a slow start nikka. Who went to see Bait or Held Up??? Thank God for Ali." Foxx roasted him, but what he was saying was getting to him.


It was Will Smith who vouched for Jamie Foxx to get that role in Ali. The producers/director weren't sure about him. But Will got him that role and he started to really take off. He was starting to dip for a second.

He's salty because this whole Oscars discussion implies that his award wasn't genuine.

I highly doubt Denzel has never second guessed why he won an award for Training Day, out of all the roles he's played (most notably Malcolm).

Foxx goes from bragging about his Oscar to saying "it's about the opportunity, awards don't matter", basically on his

Why I just can't quite make it to Jamie. Great actor, but he just needs to shut up sometimes.

I couldn't care less about how "genuine" the Smiths are. I don't even think Will deserved a nod for concussion. But by stating this publicly it diminishes those that were snubbed this year.

Def should've kept this behind closed doors.

So now will got to wait to play Stevie wonder to get an Oscar. SMH

 

[mastermind]

Foxx too stupid to realize he only got his award for playing "the ******" role also. Smith turned down that Django role that Foxx happily accepted because he didn't want to play the dumb mute slave while Christopher Waltz was the smart quick witted white man who saved the day

be too "woke" crehs

I saw the show... jaime was joking and the whole crowd was laughing alone even the other artist in the crowd boycotting the oscars
