I willl be boycotting all his work. As 'Tony Soprano says "he's dead (his career/job) is dead to me".

I detest Hollywood liberals. Jamie Foxx will be added to my ongoing boycott list, and I will NEVER watch or listen to anything that will give him one dime (not much of a sacrifice, I realize.) Has America lost its mind? What he said is disgusting and there should be public outrage. Who knows, there might be if anyone but Fox reported it.

If Miley Sirus had made those comments about a black person her contracts would have already been torn up.But I guess if your black you can make racist statments and its o.k.

I am a fan of Jamie Fox, and enjoy is work. But, I can't agree more, and say more than what "JOHN" said yesterday. I'd like to see what CNN, will have to say about all this.
nona39
They say in America he has the right to say anything, just boycott him if you don't like it. A "white B____" is okay, what about calling him a "black stupid man",then there would be a lawsuit. "DOUBLE STANDARD" Who's racist is this country?

Jamie Foxx should be fired for his statements for several reasons
1: The Statements were not funny but were RACIAL
2: The statement saying she should make a sex tape at 16 y/o is promoting Chile Pornography
3: The stament suggesting she take Herion is promoting Illegal Drug usage by a minor.
For these reasons JamieFoxx`s behavior is beyond the pale and should result in his termination

What is good for the goose is good for the gander. Imus apologized profusely for his racist remarks and still got canned...so should Jamie Fox. There are enough double standards in this country.
LuLu Cristopher
This was not a comedy routine! He should be fired like Imus was, for making fun of her teeth/gums. Imus made fun of the baketball team's hair. What's the difference? She's white?

NEWS FLASH!!! Fox News just reported that this low-life's disgusting comments towards Miss Cyrus MAY GET HIM FIRED!!!!!! HALLELUIA!!!
JGC
Didn't Imus get fired for trying to be funny when it wasn't?..... Didn't Seinfeld's Michael Richards make a fool of himself by making racist comments?...... Numerous examples of celebs doing this and often careers being damaged. So what about this idiot Jamie Foxx? He went after a 16 year old girl. He attacked her looks and downgraded her. I mean this coming from a guy who once played "Lawanda" on "In Living Color". Go figure! He made a fool of himself recently at the Country Music Awards.... yes he was there. Miley Cyrus and her father Billy Ray Cyrus were there too. Miley even performed. He might have thought he was funny but he obviously likes making a fool of himself alot these days.
Chuck Drown
He did apologize last night on Jay Leno's show. Under the guise of being a comedian he excused his remarks. It makes no difference what unbrella you use, some things just do not need to be said. What would his reaction be if the same thing was said about his daughter?
Tim Bailey
Of course he should apologize! But in todays world, being a liberal means you never make mistakes and you never have to say you're sorry! Other than FOX, is anyone else even covering this? This clown is a perfect example of the democrat party!

J Foxx got what he wants air time at the expense of others, A non funny comedian

I'm a Miley fan, I even named my daughter Miley. I think Jamie Foxxes comments were funny. He was obviously joking! I have a gumby smile too. Jamie fox has big ears. Remember, we have freedom OF speech, not freedom FROM speech. If you don't like it, change the channel.
Allison
This is absolutely ridiculous. Telling a 16 year old girl to make a sex tape and do drugs is awful, not to mention wrong. I agree with many of the comments that if this situation had been reversed and a white entertainer had said that about a black girl, there would be outrage all over the country and he or she would be riddien out of the radio studio on a rail.

It's amazing to me that this kind of "trash" is so popular with the young people of this country! There are a lot of parents in this country that have failed their children. God help us!!
YankeeDoodle
YES, what a colossal jerk. Didn't Imus get booted for something nearly as stupid? Double standard??
DeLamb
Obivously being talented doesn't mean you have a heart or a brain. As a father himself, what if someone said that about his "nice and bright girl" daughter. At least I hope she still is. Jamie, your demeaner of humility has certainly changed!!
paynjp
Hmmmm...oh yes, I vaguely remember someone named Jamie Foxx. Pretty lucky guy for having no talent. You ought to be ashamed. Your acting like a 12 year old. Scratch that, even 12 year olds have more sense. Maybe you have hit the pipe one too many times!
sailergirlga
Patiently waiting for 'Al Sharpton' to come out and demand an apoloygy from Jamie Foxx on his racist remarks to a good and wholesome kid, that Foxx is obviously jealous of. Come on Al, demand from Foxx what. you demanded from Imus!!
szb
He's just jealous that miley's albums sell more than his and her TV show is more popular than anything he has done. To dis a child is the true sign that he lacks serious confidence in his manhood.

Jamie Fox is an idiot. You can bet many of us will not be attending anything or watching anything Bozo Fox is involved with. He is doing this to raise his awareness. Any press for him is good press. He is a failing human.
America
jamie foxx is a Loser.... who ever he is.
Sam
To pick on a 16 year old teenager is the lowest of low. This girl has made more in her first 16 years then Fox will make in his lifetime. Fox is all class, low class trash.
Lois
Where is Al Sharpton when you need him. He should be all over this like he was all over Imus. By the way who is this Foxx guy?
Sanford and Son
Jamie Foxx isn't he the janitor on 'In Living Color?'
Phlo
Imus took a shot at some random women and made a direct reference to them being black, and he said it on a syndicated public radio program for all of America. It was the fact that he nearly LOST ALL HIS SPONSORS that he was given a little vacation. He was NOT driven out by Sharpton and protestors with pitchforks for all you people defending him.
Was Foxx's comments over the top, low, tasteless certainly but he said this on his own personal radio show, over premium, private, payed for, uncensored air waves. And the man is a comedian, taking edgy shots at pop stars and pop culture is what they do all the time and that's all he did, I didn't see anything blatantly racist at the same level of the Imus situation here. The only thing he should be ridiculed for was that the actual joke was REALLY bad, and made little sense, otherwise lighten up people. This isn't a race issue.

Who is the clown? Who cares, he's another pig. Sorry to the pigs, didn't mean to insult them. Double standards, what else is new.
Sammy
Seriously, I don't know who he is. Actor?

I too am outraged over the comments Jamie Foxx made regarding little Miley Cyrus! If was a black girl, Al Sharpston and Jessie Jackson would have been before the cameras with comments before you could sneeze! It's time to equalize things! Imus was fired when he made comments about a black female basketball team and so should MR. JAMIE FOXX!! What's good for the goose is good for the gander!!
SHS
What's with the Block Head haircut?
Mike
Why is it when black comedians denegrate whtie people they get a pass? What if a white comedian made fun of Beyonce's butt or Whoopie's lips or for that matter Mr. Fox have you taken a good hard look in the mirror latel? Seems to me that at least Miley is easy on the eyes!
dg
WHO IS JAMIE FOXX.
laura s
This guy is a vile, no-talent, jealous loser!!! Directing that sort of talk toward a 16 yr. old who's never done a thing to him. WHAT THE HELL IS HE ON??!!!??
FLIP IT: Can you imagine if a White "entertainer" had said that to an innocent 16yr old BLACK girl????!!!!???? WE'D NEVER HEAR THE END OF IT!!!!!!
Anonymous
Ok how stupid are you to make this a black and white issue. The dude is an actor /bad singer/bad comedian who is getting what he wants people like YOU talking about HIM.
Anonymous
Can you imagine if anyone made the same horrid, disgusting comments about Jamie's teenage daughter?
gabby
Jamie Foxx is more lucky than talented and am confident that some of his boorish talk is driven by jealousy and delusional thinking; gum transplant???? Has he looked in the mirror lately?
johnnymarin
He's jelouse because she makes more money than he does and will always make more money than he will. She will probably have a better carreer and will always be better looking. He will end up living with his kids and she will reitre to a large ranch with lots of grand kids coming to visit.
John Williams
I'm certainly no fan of Miley Cyrus, but a grown man attacking a, what, sixteen year-old girl? He must feel like quite the big man.
steve
what jamie foxx really wants is to rape miley cyrus! i would have no doubt about that ,his kind are always looking for young white girls to ruin!!
Sue
It sounds like Jamie needs a brain transplant.
Anonymous
People like Jamie Foxx should be held accountable for their words since they're in the public eye. Aren't there already enough crack smoking, sex tape making adolescents in this world?? Isn't it good that young people finally have someone to look up to? Maybe Jamie Foxx needs a brain transplant!
ncgirl
Can some one give me ONE good reason why this wonderful example of manhood would even think of making the comments he made about this young girl....... Shame on you Jamie...
Deban
Jamie Foxx needs to dig a hole jump in and cover himself up. His comments make me sick. Young girls finally have someone to REALLY look up to the THIS is what he feels.
People like him are why so many of our young are growing up with no morals!
I cant stay on line for a discussion, but had to voice my feelings when I read about it.
Anonymous
She probably does not claim him, Foxx should be careful...Mollies' Daddy, Billy Ray is....well.....ya' know
I will be boycotting his movies
Barbara
MR.JAMIE FOXX IS A NOBODY.//// IF MILEY WAS BLACK THIS WOULD BE A DIFFERENT STORY.///GO AWAY FOXX.//////
CJ your right but!
Foxx may have a child but I would say he is more of a 'babies daddy' than a dad.
Conservative
Foxx is a creep. I agree with the majority of the opinions. If the races were reversed the msm would be all over this and Adult would be crying and pleading for mercy.
