Jamie Foxx on meeting Ray Charles, getting rejected by Oliver Stone, and more

[@oceansidekr]

How could anyone hit the dislike button? I've been on a J Foxx interview binge lately because the first one I watched had me smitten with him and his stories. Both Strahan and Foxx have tons of swagger and look how cool they were in each other's company. I LOVED this! Love his grandma too. Thank you guys for a delightful hour!

[@cookiecutter344]

Jamie is an amazingly, talented entertainer; I've just realized I've been smiling ear to ear since he came on .

[@Jamaycafan1]

He’s gifted and humble. Love the fact that his family lives with him, which keeps him grounded. The love that he has for his family is awesome. Great storyteller for sure.

[@monicalibert1449]

I love you . You have me in tears 😢 💔

Jamie has always been an icon. He’s so gifted to be able to sing, play piano, act, and do stand up comedy. I don’t know another more complete artist!

[@jermaineparker1959]

He just reminded me of why he is in my top 3 people.... He is simply amazing. Can't wait for his new stand up to be recorded. I've watched 'I might need security' so many times that I could probably repeat it word for word even after not watching it for 5 years. LOL

[@debbieharden8875]

Excellent, entertaining interview. Mr. Foxx is hilarious, tells the greatest stories and is the epitome of a man of great integrity. Thank you Michael and Jamie.

[@mervinw6937]

[@dalmediatube]

Wow!!!.... That was probably one of the best interviews that I have ever seen. Jamie Fox : A master story teller, a fantastic actor and talented musician with a brilliant comedic mind...and he has heart felt engaging and relatable stories from his past. Michael Strahan: Perfectly timed and executed questions, with very little interruption. Just enough to keep it all moving. Jamie Fox, with so many amazing stories...who knew? I have a whole new level of respect for him now. That's True God Given Talent, right there. Makes me proud to be Black, and living in this moment, right now! Bless!

[@warrenmorphis4208]

It WAS the best I've ever seen! Michael knows how to be engaging without being overbearing. And Jamie? What's left to say??

i come back to this interview regularly just to hear his legendary stories

Jaime Fox Needs an oscar for story telling/interviews! Amazing stories! 🙌🏼🤘🏼🙏🏼✌🏼

[@MsNini-sw2jn]

Jamie needs to do some directing. He's an amazing story teller plus he understands theatrical dynamics in a unique way.

[@Evocati-Augusti]

That you could watch him just "talk" for over an hour and still want more shows you a level of a performer never seen before ...

[@lorebay2593]

His portrayl of Ray Charles was astonishing, I didn't know he could act that well being a comic.

[@N.DRC.]

This is the 2nd time I have watched this through completely...was hanging on every word. Such an intimate conversation.

[@samsonian]

Gotta love how REAL Foxx is. I love how he opens up and makes himself vulnerable in interviews; he is such a dynamic personality and a true gift to humanity. I sincerely hope he takes care of himself and lives a long and full life, because he truly seems to make the world a better place for those around him; a gift that is not appreciated NEARLY enough. Watching Jamie’s interviews on Howard Stern’s show is also quite a treat; he has told great stories there as well. Cheers and much love to everyone, life is too short for hate.

[@Yoshiling]

Give both these men their flowers. Jamie does everything. The man is a rare talent and a beautiful person. Michael is a hall of famer, but he is so humble that he really just gives Jamie the floor for an hour and never once makes anything about himself, even when the conversation goes towards football. He even ditched all the questions he had written and let Jamie just speak. Loved this.

Michael had questions written down to ask, but not needed. I have watched many interviewers do the same thing when Jamie Foxx is on, they just throw away the cards and just sit there and listen. Which is a good thing as it may the interview more organic. Amazing storyteller.
