Jamie Foxx Mocks Diddy In New Stand-Up Special About His Near-Death Experience
HuffPost
The Oscar winner addressed his medical emergency last year in a new special, "What Had Happened Was," between digs at Sean "Diddy" Combs.
Jamie Foxx is finally cracking jokes again — and aiming some at Sean “Diddy” Combs.
The Oscar-winning actor opened up in his new Netflix special, “What Had Happened Was,” about the mysterious medical emergency that saw him hospitalized last year, revealing it was a brain bleed and stroke, and addressed all the conspiracy theories surrounding it.
The first wave of baffling social media chatter suggested Foxx was cloned, but after Combs’ arrest following claims of illicit “freak-off” parties where he allegedly drugged and sexually assaulted women, some argued Foxx attended — and suffered his stroke after being poisoned.
“The internet said that Puffy tried to kill me,” said Foxx in his special released Tuesday. “That’s what the internet was saying. I know what you’re thinking — did he? Hell no n***a, I left them parties early. I was out by 9 n***a, something don’t look right. It’s slippery in here.”
That particular dig regarded the “more than 1,000 bottles of baby oil and lubricant” that federal authorities said they recovered in March after raiding Combs’ homes, per the 14-page indictment that prompted his September arrest on charges including sex trafficking.
