Jamie Foxx ignited a fresh wave of controversy on Monday, 22 July, after the Oscar-winning actor shared an Instagram photo of himself in Los Angeles leaning on a white Rolls-Royce while wearing a T-shirt reading 'Jesus is a Black man,' a post that quickly spread across social media and sparked a backlash. The image of Foxx, set to Kanye West's 2004 track Jesus Walks, drew thousands of reactions within hours as users dissected not just his faith, but his private life.
Foxx's public relationship with faith has been far more straightforward than his often-scrutinised dating history. The 56-year-old has repeatedly credited God for his recovery from a serious medical emergency in 2023, later revealed as a brain bleed that led to a stroke.
